Any plans for Casey or the 4 frogs?
 

Hello there, I was wondering if the new crew had any plans for Casey or the frogs. Thanks!

I heard Casey was confirmed for season 2. I'm not sure if this is 100% true.

Cool! I assume he'll be a teen as well? How long is season 1 going to be? 13 or 26 episodes?

From what I heard Casey Jones is officially confirmed for season two.

Season 1 is going to be 26 episodes; at least, that's what it says on Wikipedia.

Yep :)

So far the confirmed characters are:
Baxter Stockman
Dogpound
Fishface
Metalhead
The Rat King
Leatherhead
The Flaming Carrot
Casey Jones
Karai
Fugitoid
Female Kraang (which can heard on Rob Paulsen's podcats with the show's creator and executive producer) played by Casandra Peterson aka Elvira.
No word on the Punk Frogs.

General Traag and Karai have also been confirmed.

This show keeps getting better and better!

Now we just have to hope Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady appear...but sadly no word on them yet. Maybe in Season 2.

The Flaming Carrot..... wut...?

Sweet but what is the flaming carrot? I wonder if Leatherhead will be good guy or villain like the 80s toon.

The Flaming Carrot is a superhero created by Bob Burden (Mystery Men). The Flaming Carrot did a few crossover issues with the Turtles:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Flaming Carrot 1
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Flaming Carrot 2
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Flaming Carrot 3
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles/Flaming Carrot 4

and the TMNT made appearance in:
Flaming Carrot 25
Flaming Carrot 26
Flaming Carrot 27

Not sure why he was chosen for the series. I'm guessing Ciro Nieli is a fan of the character.

Oh my freaking goodness!!!! I can't believe the Flaming Carrot is gonna be in this show!!! I can't wait!!!!!!!!!

And Fugitoid too! This show is definitely gonna be sweeeet!!!

I believe Casey was confirmed to be 18.

Yeah I wouldn't be able to name a source right now, but I'm pretty sure it's been said that he'd be older than April and the turtles.

Thanks for the info!

oh yes!!!I didn'tknow that before!;)that is really great!flamming carrot is such a great character!!!;)
the fugitoid making it back here is absolutely superb, too!!!
as I mentioned in two different spots here:I posted an actual interview with ciro nielli, hoon lee and kevin michael richardson here where they confirm casey for season two, krang from the 80s making it into the cartoon and 'can't say anything about it' about whether bebop and rocksteady will come back, too;)...
for me that ready like nick says I should shut up now but I won't say NO to you;)
man, I HOPE the punk frogs make it back on the tube here!!they were so much fun;)..

Leatherheaf a villain or hero in this version?

@NinjaMan: My pleasure :)

I actually can picture, for some odd reason, Bruce Campbell voicing The Flaming Carrot or Jeff Bennett.

@marcelangelo: Thanks for the tip man :) I'm glad the 80's Krang will be appearing in the series. Ciro is trying really hard to keep the down low on upcoming characters. I don't blame him though, he wants it to be a surprised. As much as I love Rocksteady and Bebop, I have a feeling they won't appear in the show. As much as I would want them, I'm thinking Dogpound and Fishface are the new Rocksteady and Bebop. Although, being that Ciro is a die-hard fan, he might have them make cameos, either in their human or mutant form.

I have a hunch that Leatherhead is going to be a villain. He was a battle boss in one of those mini Nickelodeon online games. Then again he could be both be good and bad. I do know (from looking at the toy design) he is modeled after the 2003 series.

If I can geek out for a few moments... while Channel 6 news is in the series I would love for an episode to have April get a job there or maybe intern. She doesn't have to be a reporter or maybe she eventually does. I know her new incarnation doesn't have her being a desired new reporter, but it would be such f***ing cool to see The Channel Six news building again and maybe have Irma, Vernon and Burne in a episode.

I can't see all four frogs show up in this new incarnation, though I could see Genghis being a possible addition at some point.
