If you were tasked into making the worst possible version of the TMNT, what would you do?

I would make them act 10x goofier than S4-7 of the 1987 show and Turtles Forever, they walk outside in broad daylight and not in the shadows, Splinter does jack-**** and makes the Turtles do his dirty work for him, the Turtles are national superheroes that are known to the public, without hiding in the shadows like real ninjas, and the foot clan would be a dance studio run by the "Shredder" as he's an aerobics instructor who "shreds" the dance floor.

The worst possible version based on previous iterations? OK, it would be something like this:

The origin should pretty much be the same as the FW one, with Yoshi being very poorly framed for a murder attempt, living in the sewer instead of just getting a job and Shredder trying to use mutagen as a murder weapon.
The Turtles pretty much look like they do in Rise but have the near non-existent personalities of their Mutant Mayhem counterparts.
Venus, Jennika and Lita are there right from the start and why not throw Kirby in there too?
Mutant Town is the primary focus and it never gets away from that.
Sacks is Shredder like he was intended to be in the 2014 movie.
April, Casey and Baxter are pretty much the same as their PD counterparts.
Donatello should be defined by having a crush on April that never goes anywhere and is just totally creepy.
The Turtles should go everywhere in a monster truck constructed from an old train cart.
Shredder should be a totally inconsistent character who is only consistent in hating Splinter even if it would result in the literal destruction of the planet with no other justification.
There should not be any Utroms, just the Kraang.

1. Give all Turtles wrap around du-rag head bands with some covering the sides of the face too, like in Next Mutation.

2. Give them all Mikey's goofy personality like in Rise that way no character stands out.

3. Make them super ugly looking like the Bay turtles.

4. Give them voices that don't match too well like in Mutant Mayhem.

5. Make the whole plot about Ralph and Leo fighting like in the 2007 movie.

6. Give them different voice actors in a couple of episodes like in FW.

7. Give them lifeless no pupil eyes like in 2003.

8. Give multiple bad guys the same exact name just to make a connection to pervious versions like in 2012.

A friend and I once toyed around with idea for a TMNT reboot where Krang is basically an inflated baloon and the Turtles are all sock puppets! I think we had Shredder actually be a kitchen utensil.

Combine the worst elements of The Next Mutation, Bay Turtles and Rise.

That oughta do it.
