I think we have to wait and see, As soon we see a clip/trailer, we will be clear what direction the new tv show will be taking.
A bit annoyed that the 2012 show is coming to an end, but we all knew that was the case. It would be nice to see some official artwork or something to go along with this announcement. My guess is they might not want to overshadow the last season of the current show.

wow
Didn't expect a new series so soon. Tentatively excited.
It'll be nice to see a nick tmnt series with "more humor" compared to 2012s none. But the "toned down" makes me think this is gonna bomb. How do you "tone down" 2012? Will they be speaking in baby talk the whole series? Thats the only way they can pander to kids lower than the current series already is. But like i've posted in another thread on here TMNT has a cycle of producing GOOD then BAD/GENERALLY HATED cartoons. And the last series was/is bad so this one can only be good. TMNT has never doubled down on bad stuff. This should probably be in General too for folks that don't watch nick. I get why it's here but still, it is a new series after all. PS hope they get new voice actors aside from Paulson. And i actually kinda like cypes. Seth and whoever the other guy is have gotta go. They don't seem or feel natural to the characters.

Interested in the decision to make it more light-hearted, I always preffered TMNT to be more light than dark...but big network's idea of humour for today's kids does'nt quite gel with the humour a lot of us grew up on. Perhaps if it's a little like Steven Universe's early blend of story and comedy I could see myself enjoying it (although I've steadily gone off that show in recent months)
Time will tell, I'm just glad 2012 is done. I acknowledge it did some pretty good things, but it rarely worked for me |

If anything, this is to the 2012 show as Next Mutation was to the Fred Wolf show.

Not that it's too likely they will, but I'd love it if they took some cues from Adventure Time, which has a great balance of humor, action, & slice of life episodes. You could definitely make a good TMNT cartoon inspired by its tone.

Maybe, just maybe, Nick might actually air this show so we get one episode every week in a row, that way we don't stop caring about storylines.

My only two points here at this VERY early stage are as follows:
1. I hope that it isn't aimed at too young of an audience. I want a show that anyone can watch, like what we have now. I would hate for it be dumbed down even further and be like a series for under 10s. 2. This will be the fourth animated series, but the very first not bear the proper TMNT title, by adding "Rise of" to it. I just think that's interesting. |

Yeah, the more I think about this show...the more it bums me out since I feel this is a step backwards into what the franchise needs TV show wise. Like someone mentioned earlier, it wouldn't be such a hard hit if we were actually getting more takes on the live action films that felt more mature. With them retooling TMNT for future movies, I'm optimistic that someone will eventually get it right down the road. At least I'm hoping...
I know Nick is pretty crappy when it comes to the home video department, but they'd be foolish not to release the 2012 series as a full box set when it's all said and done..right?

I see Andy Suriano worked on the new Mickey Mouse shorts, I wonder if the new TMNT show will be anything like that.

A reboot within this decade? Pretty sure I called it.

TMNT 4 (the one that never happened): Let's give them all a new MUTATION! New POWERS! NT:TNM: Let's add a female Turtle! With MAGIC! 2K3: Let's make this season about MAGIC POWERS! Let's make this season about TIME TRAVEL TO THE FUTURE! Let's make this season about COOL HACKING TECHNO STUFF! PDTMNT: Let's make them HUMAN-LIKE! And BULLETPROOF! etc., etc. Never once is it ever, "Let's get together and come up with the best possible Ninja Turtles project, and put all of our energy into that."

I disagree.
I think they are trying to make the best ninja turtle product. They just have a different definition of what a good product is.

Yeah, but you say that like this hasn't been the case since Mirage started their Guest Artist phase.
Every single iteration has done this, even with the comics. Similar things can be said about the Archie, Image, DW, and even IDW runs.

What good is a used car without a spiffier looking set of wheels?

I guess you could say Erik Larsen intended the Turtles' initial injuries as a sales gimmick with Image Vol. 3, though first and foremost that was just Erik wanting visual distinction. Oddly. The Cyber Samurai stuff in Archies was definitely a sales gimmick. I can't really think of any others. It's less that and more, "What good is a used, classic car without... this Yo Quiero Taco Bell bobble head dog we added behind the back window?"

Well with Ciro not involved it's likely going to have nothing to do with the Nick cartoon. Still I wonder if it could have some loose continuity, especially if the Turtles have the same voice actors.
