I'd have to say Donnie's "biggest fear" in Fungus Humongous being April not liking him. I tolerate the whole crush thing, but having that be what he fears most really seams to cheapen the character for me. In fact the only ones who seemed to have deep, well-developed fears were Leo and April.

But then again, this episode could have been just an episode to have Leo save the day, again. It's kind of strange, because I thought Raphael got through his phobia in CockRoach Terminator. And why would Mikey be afraid of the squirrelnoids? Eh, now I'm starting to see why I really didn't care for that episode. |

So wouldn't that make Leo weaker than the other three, even though he's the leader? Because wouldn't 'suppressing your fear' be a great attribute?

The episode 'Mikey gets Shellacne'
With the exception of Rahzar.

Granted, Raph's ultimate fear I would think would be, if he was never strong enough to protect his brothers, that was something they dealt with in the episode where he was testing Leo's leading abilities, but for some reason this episode decided to fall back on comedy fair, which is OK, it is a kid's show, can't have it too heavy. |

I sorta agree, that ep was a little on the gross side, and I really am not digging Dogpounds mutation in to Rahzar.

I think so far 'Mikey gets Shellacne' is my least favorite episode of the entire series.

- Casey Jones's line near the end of "Annihilation: Earth!" ("This is awesome!") - Michelangelo's entire behavior throughout the season three episode, "The Croaking". - Splinter's "cheese phone" moment in "The Manhattan Project: Part One". _ April O'Neil's "You're my mutant" moment in "A Foot Too Big". - Casey's skull bomb in "Raphael: Mutant Apocalypse" ("Carmegeddon!"). These moments are among some of the worst scenes in the 2k12 series. |

The entire freaking planet got destroyed. Millions of people just died. His friend’s father (Splinter) was just slain in front of them. His family died too. No normal person would ever yell that out after all that stuff happened, no matter what it is they’re reacting to. With the way they handled that scene, Nick Casey comes off a complete and utter idiot. |

I personally think the cheese phone was cute
But basically for me, it was anything to do with Donatello pining after April...or Casey doing just about anything ever. There's a lot around him that rubs the wrong way...which all culminates into the "This is awesome" bit. The time travel logic is downright awful.

Yeah, I wish Casey wasn't dumbed down as the show progressed.
I just finished watching Season 2 and forgot how much I initially liked Nick's Casey. He was intelligent in Season 2 and had good dialogue and interactions, but somewhere from Season 3 onward he was completely flanderized. |

Pretty much all Casey said was 'Another mutant', 'This is so metal'

When they cancelled it!

I'm sure I'm forgetting some things and may think of more little stuff later (I also haven't watched the last 3 arcs yet (Monsters, Wanted and Apocalypse) so I may have more to add), but the ones that immediately come to mind:
Irma being a Kraang. Still hate it. Loved this version of Irma and was very disappointed she wasn't somehow still around after that reveal, having just been "replaced" by a Kraang imposter for that twist. Big time fail IMO and one less female character on the show after that. Casey becoming gradually more idiotic, as others have stated. Not much to add there. Karai being mutated, then just undoing it so suddenly and 'matter of fact' after all the drama and build up to her mind being lost and her potentially staying stuck in snake form. Still a head-scratcher. I think it boils down to knowing they had backed themselves into a corner and just shrugging it off because why not. The repeated fake-outs involving and subsequently legit murdering of Splinter. Still probably my biggest irk with this series. It just wasn't necessary IMO. I get the whole "fate is fate, no matter what you try to change or intervene with" perspective they were going for, but I really didn't need to see Splinter impaled and thrown off a rooftop like a sack of trash. It stung more than anything I've ever seen in the entirety of the franchise to date. I'm sure that was entirely the point too, but whatever - I'll always hate it. The general overuse and overblown threat of the Kraang in general. Seriously, this OMG GUYS INVASION arc seemed to repeat itself way too often in hindsight. By the time we got the supposed "send-off" for that angle in When Worlds Collide, it was beyond played out. I was so uninvested in that story. I really wish we'd been given something else to potentially enjoy instead in that slot during the final Tales season. Which leads me to another complaint associated with Tales - I'd rather the Usagi arc been increased to 4 or 5 episodes. I think it would've been a better use of the season, and would've made the goofy Yokai episode more tolerable with more time to develop Usagi and the Turtles working together beforehand and Pugtaro's rise to power at the end feeling a little less rushed. |
