What is YOUR level of enthusiasm for the upcoming show?

So, I am curious what everyone thinks of the potential for the series next year. Are you hyped about it? Are you cautiously optimistic? Do you think you'd be able to allow your children to watch it? Or should it just burn in the fires of hell?


For me, I am VERY cautiously optimistic! I do want to see it and am excited for it, but with it being a "younger, lighter feel" in today's market, it can easily turn out to be a Teen TItans Go clone or worse. And yeah, I'd probably allow my children to watch it when the time comes to officially get them into the franchise.

^ This! Hope it's good, but I'm wary due to the ridiculousness of a lot of kids shows these days.

I'm currently so sad about 2012 ending and so salty about the way the air dates have been handled by Nick that I can't form a real opinion about it other than general disgust.

But with Suriano on it, I'm sure it'll be entertaining.

It's way too early to tell. Why don't you wait till the first trailer is released?

As of now I'm always interested in any new TMNT series. But there's no way of knowing what it'll be like.

Zero interest. If they're going even younger with it as they have promised, I doubt my daughter would even be interested in it so it really won't be on my radar at all.

None of those, really. Just mildly curious, until we get further info. From what little we've heard, not exactly optimistic.

I hope it turns out decent and not as 'wtf' as the initial limited info makes it sound like. If it lasts a while, well, this will after all probably be my nephew's intro to TMNT, so I'd prefer it make a good impression and does TMNT justice. If not, well... I might be breaking out the FW (when he's older, he's only pushing 16 months) until he's old enough for Nick 2012.

The Way Nick Treated the 2012 series around Series 5 putting half of it on DVD and pushing the Show to Nicktoons not to mention those stupid 5 month breaks. Nick can suck it for all I care. So no I am not that excited

I wasn't even interested in the 2012 Nick cartoon.

Yeah, I might buy some of the toys for my kids or let them watch it, but that's it.

You & me both, but it's probably a given.

I’ll give it a shot. At a certain point, one has to recognize when they’re not the target audience but have you seen the backgrounds on Titans Go? They’re full of Easter eggs.

No interest at all. Not watching it. That thing is for children.

To be this stubbornly closed minded without having even seen the designs is pretty wack, yo.

I want to get some hint of what we're getting, before condemning or praising. I'm sorry, but getting upset because the turtles might have mystical ninja powers, without knowing the nature of such powers, is just stupid. Ninja are supposed to have magic in Japanese fiction, from Kuji-kiri mystical symbols, to Jutsu techniques. That's their gimmick; to blur the lines between magic and cheap theatrics with their martial arts.

Their powers will probably be similar to the Ninja tribunal season of the 2k3 series anyway. I can see them having "special moves" and some element based powers. I just hope it's not overused. Basing a whole show around that is worrisome, in 2k3 it was only for about 6 episodes out of the season.
