What are you looking forward to in season 2?
 

For me I can't wait to see Casey, Mutagen Man, the 80s turtles and hopefully the return of Leatherhead.

Slash. Glad we got confirmation on him.

All of the above, plus I'm hoping to see some more focus on Shredder and the Foot. I'm also looking forward to maybe seeing some more character brought back from other incarnations that we haven't had yet.

Yeah I want more Foot focus as well and I'm hoping, it's a long shot that Ray Fillet appears.

If I could only pick one element it would be Casey. I hope he gets to play an integral role similar to Karai.

Now that we have some info on Slash/Spike, I'm totally down for that as well. new mutants always have my attention

Agreed, the more mutants the merrier for me. I too want Casey to play a huge role and hope to see him wreck some Foot Soldiers.

More like I'm hoping (since I don't know if it'll actually happen) is a lot more character growth with the turtles. I feel like there's the potential there for Don what with the whole Mutagen Man deal and next season Raph also seems like he might have his moments with the introduction of Casey and Slash. But Leo and Mikey....especially poor Mikey, it's all still feeling really stagnant to me. I'm getting really bored of new character after new character and would prefer some solid story arcs with some already established characters (Rat King, Leaherhead) instead of a new mutant every other episode. Nothing really feels collected and it's starting to feel a bit boring.

I bet Leo will be watching a Space Heroes show with someone less like Captain Kirk (or Ryan), but more like Captain Picard. I do see Leo meeting some warriors of another kind to work with/or fight against. It depends how it goes. As for Mikey - it's possible he could be getting a cat and find friendlier ones. I don't know. You make it sound like they have no worth. Also, the more mutants, the better. The only time I'll get bored is if they're in space for like 6 episodes. Still, it's a kid's show. If you're losing interest, don't watch it. Wait for something better in the future when the turtles are only fighting humans, then. It will come.:twink:

80s turtles hands down.

I'm curious how they're gonna do this, since they're like 2D drawing and Nick's are 3D model.

Definitely more development and exploration into the turtles' characters and personality. And some more joking and sibling rivalry.

Beside all the above mentioned, I'd like to see more action from Splinter, he seems like an amazing fighter.

How about some loose ends, like what became of Chris Bradford's chain of dojos? Maybe Dogpound could take advantage of his old company somehow, for Shredder's means?

I'd also like to see Nickelodeon's depiction of Dimension X, and some other creatures from there.

I am absolutely hoping to see more about Splinter's background and the history between him and the Shredder. That old photograph of them together, seemingly as friends, REALLY piqued my interest. :)

EVERYTHING!

But specifically I want to see more of Shredder and the Foot...I'm getting a bit tired of the Kraang.

OOO I had forgot all about that pic. I hope the 2 of them get to interact next season.

I think they should do what they did with the Timmy/Jimmy power hours. Have the OT turtles in 3D, in the Nick Turtles world, and have the Nick turtles in 2D, in the OT Turtles world.

OOO I'd love to see the 80's Turtles in 3D.

That would be hilarious! It would be so much better than Jimmy/Timmy Power!:tlol:

I wonder if they're ever get to the point in where it's discovered that the Mutagen man has the ability to change shape and formed like in the 80's cartoon? Timothy was the type of person that a had desperate desire to be someone else.

How did I make it sound like Leo and Mikey have no worth? I said they haven't really been getting anything in the way of character development. With Don and Raph, they seem like they have build up for future potential to really challenge themselves and grow as individuals. Personally, I haven't really seen anything like that given to Leo and Mikey and it's disappointing. One could argue Leo did have a little bit of growth in terms of Karai, but it felt like such a stupid schoolboy crush that it hardly seems noteworthy to me since I know there are so many other ways he can learn and develop outside of his feelings for some girl he doesn't even know. I feel like Mikey hasn't even had that and he hasn't learned much about himself or grown from his experiences. That's not me saying I feel they have no worth.

Slash, more Karai, Casey Jones, more Mutagen Man, Mutanimals, you-know-who...

Sorry. I guess the reason why I said that was for a defense mechanism. I have no problem with what they done, and I think (more or less), the turtles are growing each episode, and they prove to be good ninjas/leaders/warriors, too. If you look outside of the Karai business, I'd say Leo has been developing in episodes where she's not there. I think the premiere and "Never Say Xever" did that, and it went on during episodes even when he wasn't the main focus. I think Mikey is fine, too. Both "New Friend, Old Enemy" and "Parasitica" have shown some good character development in my opinion. I'd say each of the four turtles get the spotlight in every episode, and I like that.:tcool:

Just out curiosity, what kind of character development do you want to see in Leo?

Personally, I like the idea of Leo learning to humble himself. Leo has always come off to me as being rather proud and a bit full of himself, but in other incarnations, he feels a bit "older" so he's learned to (mostly) strike the balance between his natural ego and a sense of humbleness. Nickelodeon's Leo still feels very young and we've seen a few times already that he's a got bit of a big head, and I think it'd be interesting for him to struggle with the realization that he can't do everything he wants to be able to do.

We also saw a tiny bit of his struggling with what it means to be a leader even when he doesn't want to be, but he came off as such a whiny brat about it I really don't feel like he's learned much from that experience. It would be fun to watch him really take to his position as leader, now that he knows it's not something he can just shove off to someone else whenever he feels like it, and see how he learns to internalize his feelings on what it means to be responsible for the lives of his brothers even when it comes at the cost of his own happiness (such as when they might possibly resent him for constantly "telling them what to do"). Leo has always felt like his role as leader is an integral part of who he is, a position he takes VERY seriously (as he should), and Nick's Leo doesn't quite seem to have that yet and I'd be interested to watch him understand just why his status is so important-not just for the sake of it sounds 'cool' to be the leader, but for the very real task at hand of protecting his family.

Well, he's already learned what it's like to shove the job to someone else, and Raph learned about what it truly means to be a leader and the burden that comes with it. I think Leo did learn his lesson that there has to be a balance. And I don't think he was particularly whiny about it. He was simply voicing his concerns that he always has to make the decisions while his brothers complain about it. I think it was a legitimate complaint for him to have since he's so young and still learning what it means to be a leader. But he learned in the end that his job is important, and I have a feeling he'll learn more about it in due time.

I totally agree.....

Donnie has had so many episodes to himself

1) metalhead
2) monkey brains
3) the Pulverizer
4) the Pulverizer returns
5) pretty sure the next episode after Parasitica will be about Donnie
6).......pretty much anything involving April

even in Mousers attack, Raph and Leo kept saying they needed Donnie.....they didn't even mention Mike.

he has hogged April all season........

Donnie has had so much development this season...I think next season I would like the other boys to get some more.......

and since Raph is gonna have Slash AND Casey...........Leo and Mikey need more development....

Mikey has had a total of literally 3 episodes this season to himself....and not one of those episodes included a private conversation with Splinter....which all the other boys have gotten.


okay...end rant :D sorry...I had to get that out...........

I'm looking forward to Slash, the crossover, Casey, etc. I also hope we find out that Karai is Miwa and what that will do to her once she finds out. Should be interesting.

I am looking forward to kill the turtles!!

You are NOT the shredder. Please stop pretending you are.

I think it's funny to imagine the Shredder hunching over a keyboard and bitching about how he can't succeed on a forum in his downtime. But yeah, in all seriousness, this isn't a place for roleplaying.

Amen to that.

I am looking forward to a moment you shut up!!

Slash, Mutagen Man, maybe more of Karai hinted at breaking off from Shredder. Return of Rat King and Leatherhead hopefully.

I do wish to see Mikey maybe get some more development. How about a modern interpretation of the original cartoon hero he liked Bugman or something? Or give him his pet cat from the comics?

If we get anymore original toon nod characters I'd not be against Mona Lisa or since it seems Dimension X exists for the Kraang, the Neutrinos.

I'm gonna indulge this.

Tell me, oh one true Shredder. How do you find time to lead the Foot, Karai and Apolex and brainwash Leo in the comics..... and then lead Dogpound and Fishface and a captured Kraang in the cartoons AND post on a message board about your defeats? Where do you find the time? And are you tappin Kistune? Do tell.

As for the topic question... Slash, Mutagen Man, hopefully another episode with Rat King and Spider Bytes. He's the only one that hasn't really returned considering Snakeweed has a second episode and will be in the second issue in the comic based on the series. I assume we'll see him again since he's getting an action figure.

How do i find time? I am posting messages here in my free time when i am not chassing the turtles. But most days i am busy fighting them and that why as you see i am not posting a lot here.

But do you lead Karai, Apolex, the Foot, Kitsune AND Dogpound, and Fishface and uh.... Other Karai? All at the same time? And how is your side job as a Colonel working out?

Corey Feldman not being Don.

Bebop and Rocksteady's human forms getting a cameo.

Ma.Campbell being rebuilt into the robot Chromedome.

Chong's egg hatching into Scumbug.

I would enjoy seeing a Mikey & Raph episode, with the two as the leads of an episode.

I think it would be interesting and very entertaining to see how those two would have to deal with each other as well as work together in a Major Capacity, during a plot that could be 'saving the rest of the family' or 'some other kind of plot'.

Casey Jones! I've been waiting for his obligatory headbutt with Raph.
Aaaaaaaand more Mikey time. I love the guy to bits (he's like a few teens I know), but I'd really like to see some sort of development on his part.

(Now what I kind want to see is the Kraang getting proper speaking lessons. It'll never happen, but I must save the English language! Earth can rot in the gutter!)

I... I... actually like Feldman as Don....
