Will this series ever see a nostalgic resurgence?
The 4Kids show premiered almost fifteen years ago. With the important role that nostalgia plays in many prominent media franchises, when do you think TMNT fans and casuals/regular people will start looking back fondly at the 2003 series on a more collective level?

I don't see it happening at all.
|
Yeah, unfortunately I think the Nick show has thoroughly overshadowed it.

Just watch, in a couple of months the Nick section here is going to be brought to a crawl, just like the PD section. |

They're not even quarter-assing it but it's not exactly buried either... |
I believe people will start appreciating the 2k3 show alot more when Rise of the Tmnt starts airing.
I can see it having more of a nostalgic following than the Nick show in the distant future though. |
Do we know if it's streaming anywhere?
|
Amazon has certain seasons; maybe iTunes as well.

I never saw it on tv, only binge watched it online a few years ago. But truth be told, though I rarely post in this section, I actually really wish a new series would pick up where this one left off and bring back the designs similar/same as it had for most seasons.

No, 4Kids is never gonna "resurge."
But mark my words, after a few years and this "Rise of the Turtles" cartoon, nobody is going to remember the Nick cartoon, either. But everyone will continue to remember the Fred Wolf cartoon... because that's how this works. :trazz: |
Yes it will, and tons of 4kids elements and characters like Hun and Bishop have already continued into other series and canons.

Much the same way most people think of the FW toon, rather than the Mirage book. |

Fred Wolf? Pervasive as hell. |
Any long running franchise always has it's first incarnation, or whichever was the most popular, overshadow everything that came after.
It's the same thing in the Pokemon fandom, with a bunch of delusionals who still think Misty/Brock or the original 151 pokemon are the only things that matter...even though the Pokemon franchise is now 20 years old and we're on gen 7. Just look at all the casuals getting excited over Misty/Brock getting a cameo in the current anime. It's the same thing TMNT fans do when we have those 80's crossovers in the Nick cartoon or back in Turtles Forever. Or how hyped everyone is to see a new incarnation of Bebop and Rocksteady. |
