Does anybody else hate Casey from the Nick TMNT cartoon?
 
I loved the Casey Jones character from back in the day, but Casey from the Nick show is horrible! He is an idiot, who always just causes problems. The "This is awesome" comment from the end of the season 3 finale pretty much sums it up.

I don't care for him very much myself.

Shark_Blade 10-01-2015 08:11 AM

The comment at the end of Season 3 was dumb, but other than that I have nothing to complain much about his character.

Nope.

He and April are on my top hate list for the new cartoon lol. I just hate teenage Casey...he is just...i can't stand him :/

IndigoErth 10-01-2015 10:33 AM

Hate, no, though I do find him a bit annoying.

Luckyday 10-01-2015 10:42 AM

He seem more like his age but just a little less mellow.

I don't know. He had always been cocky so it doesn't bother me as much.

plastroncafe 10-01-2015 10:47 AM

Of the teenagers represented on that show, he's the only one who acts his age.

Autbot_Benz 10-01-2015 11:28 AM

I like Nick Casey he is awesome. He is kind of an inventor too with his Exploding hockey pucks that shock thing on the end of his glove etc

Metropoliskid41 10-01-2015 12:37 PM

Hate him? No. But the Nick TMNT version of Casey is definitely my least favorite take on him.

Powder 10-01-2015 12:48 PM

I don't hate him, & I absolutely love his design, but he can get on my nerves at times.

more or less this

He at least can believably participate in the fighting, unlike April, who I genuinely hate in this show. Large and far my last favorite version of April. Casey is tolerable, though the only time I've ever really liked Casey is in the live action films, none of the other versions have even come close to matching thar representation.

GoldMutant 10-01-2015 03:44 PM

I don't hate this version of Casey, but wish more can be done with him. Good design and Josh Peck does a decent job with the character, but he is probably one of the weaker versions of the character.

I seriously wish though if Casey has the friend that destroyed their hockey championship opportunity, the guy gets voiced by Drake Bell. Please make it happen. :lol:

I don't understand. You don't like him but you think he's awesome?

I like him fine.

I don't hate/dislike Casey or any character of this series. It's super rare for me to legit dislike or hate a character and it's usually characters that are super selfish, don't care about others (Light from Deathnote for example), those who act as if they're better than those around them (Kiyomi from Deathnote/Ayeka from Tenchi, for example), those who treat others unfairly or don't seem to show appreciation (ChibiUsa from the original Sailor Moon anime...liked her fine for the manga), etc. Casey doesn't fit any of these traits. He cares about his friends, city, and family. Can't dislike him for that. I don't favor him, but I don't dislike him either, as for me, I have favorites and non-favorites. I also like the fact that he acts his age...a cocky (this is a trait of Casey in general), impulsive (hm, this feels very Casey-ish too), teen.

The only thing I can think of that did legitimately bug me was his "awesome" line at the end of the finale, unless they are going to have him in denial, then I'll take it back and would want Raph to be the one to react to it.

Cure 10-01-2015 04:55 PM

What is people's problem with that line? I legitimately don't understand.

Really? Ok, his planet was completely destroyed. Everyone and everything he once knew are gone. A robot comes and says you're going on a space adventure.

To me, it was like...

*Earth is destroyed*

Casey: :-(

Fugitoid: *dangles keys*. Your planet is gone and everyone you cared about are dead, but hey, look at the shiny keys!

Casey: Shiny! Cool!

That's how it felt to me, like how when a toddler may fall or trip abd you quickly do something so that they don't notice the pain or discomfort. I don't see how he could switch like that. It felt very out of place given what just happened.

LeotheLateBloomer 10-01-2015 05:11 PM

I don't hate this version of Casey but he's definitely not one of my favorite takes of the character. I know he's a teenager but he can be a jock sometimes. Flirts with April, then flirts with Karai, and enjoys being kissed by her. After that, I'm starting to have doubts of the idea of pairing April with this guy even though it's suppose to be this way.:ohwell:

Yeah, but Casey tends to live in the moment and he is in denial. So he is using the fact they are going on an adventure in space to distract him from the heavier subject that their planet and everyone they knew has just been destroyed.

Which yes is like dangling key's in front of a child to distract them.


For example my Room Mate enjoys watching Gray's anatomy so I saw Casey's reaction as being not all that different then this

While Izzy is acting like an asshole by laughing at the fact one of her friends just died right now, the impact of George's death really hits her later on in that episode.
