what do you all think of turtles in time

[saintsaucey]

As a potential future season. Each of the turtles and casey and april sent to a different time period. What time period should they get sent to?

No more time traveling to the past. That is WAAYY overdone. Personally, I hate it whenever a show uses the 'time traveling to the past' schtick, as it's always the same cheesy time periods: prehistoric, medieval, Roman (occasionally) Old West, and Victorian times. Also it's the same 'Fish out of water' deal they do EACH and EVERY time. It's so boring and irritating, and I'd always wondered why they just didn't use the technology to stop the villains from ever being born or at least to prevent the villain from pulling off many of his lame schemes.

I'm not mad at you, it's that I've never found the allure of it that others have, and always wondered why it has to be a standard 'go to' plot just to have it in an episode line up.

If they have to do time traveling, the only original thing I've seen (and it's rarely done) is them traveling forward to the near future, but finding out that while they were gone in time, the villains took over and made it a crapsack world. The heroes are only able to return to the point of when they left, so there is no tampering with the past, and the future is 'what could be' instead of 'what will be.'

Wow Time travel is my favorite trope. That and alternate time lines.

Wow Time travel is my favorite trope. That and alternate time lines.I'm not saying it's bad, but they need to change it up so it doesn't all look the same. If they travel to the future, they can make up all sorts of 'what if' stuff and go wild with it, since all of it will be prevented by them returning to the time point they left anyway.

You know we just HAVE to get them into the prehistoric era at some point! :D

I'm not a big fan of time traveling stories, if it was just for 1 episode than maybe that be ok.

That's the cool thing about traveling to the future. Anything with the future is hypothetical. Now I don't really care to see a Nick Incarnation of Fast Forward (thought that might be interesting in someways) but maybe a same as it never was story line could work.

However what I never liked about the 2k3 series is that they never followed up on that. I mean compared to everyone else Donnie was sent to the worst world. And even though they essentially take out the Shredder a couple episodes after everyone is reunited. Something that big wouldn't be ignored.

I can see Donnie obsessing about the who,what,where, when, why's and how's about his supposed disappearance and how it related to Shredder's rise to power.

Maybe constantly looking over his shoulder on missions and patrol as if wondering "Is this the day I disappeared?"

Locking himself in the Lab for days on end making sure the security is functioning, creating electronic eyes, and limbs so that way if his "disappearance" is inevitable he can at least make sure he's ready for when it happens. Until he breaks down about the whole thing.

Dude, I could not handle any more SAINW-style episodes; it would break my feels.

In all seriousness, time-travel episodes are fun - either to the future, or the past; it just depends how it's done. I find future-travel more interesting in scope, but for some reason it's nearly always depressing!

[rickwj324]

I'm fine with time travel stories... I'm sure Nick would handle it well.

Instead of time travel I really hope we get to see some Dimension X travel. Would like to see a Neutrino team-up, some Triceraton action, and some fighting with the Kraang on their turf.
