The Nick show really is the first series where the Turtles are written as actual teenagers.
I agree with this. In the earlier toons the TMNT looked/acted late teens to early 20s. April in both toons looked/acted 23 - 25. So that puts them around the same age, maybe a few years apart at most. The Nick show, since the turtles actually look/act as teens as they're supposed to, I can see why they'd make April a teen too.
