Do you think this show is going downhill?
 

I mean, Season 1 was great, Season 2 was fantastic, but something felt off about Season 3, and Season 4's all over the place right now.

No.

Anyway, this should have just been posted in the venting thread. We don't need another negative thread just to whine about aspects of the show, we already have a thread to do just that.

4 started strong, then a little meh as of late.

And yet you take issue with people venting and whining in a venting and whining thread.:lol:

Yes, the show has gone downhill ever since the original team left. There are a few good things through out but they're far and few between and lack consistency.

Personally I think it the last two seasons are stronger then the first two.

I just wanna know why the original team left.

Are they still in space? Then yes.

The first season was really the only season that I enjoyed. I don't know why I continue to watch every new episode. I don't really like the show that much. I'm mostly just curious to see what Nickelodeon will do with the franchise.

I don't think the show is going downhill, it's doing fine despite that they tend to take names of characters, and create something completely different with them, hence the Neutrinos, it's the only thing I have issues with, besides that the show has been great.

I'm not overly fond of this season to date so in my opinion yes.

However for me it was hard to match the high from season 3. Season 3 by far was my favorite season. I'm ready for this space non sense to be over.

No I don't think the show has gone downhill. I loved season 1 because it introduced me to the show and reintroduced the turtles' personalities. I loved the humour.

Overall I didn't like season 2. There was too much bad filler (don't mind filler as long as it's good) and the season seemed to really lack direction. They were supposed to be collecting canisters which was just an excuse for mutant of the week episodes.

I really enjoyed season 3. The season seemed to have more of a structure and goal than season 2. It wasn't just one random event and then another. I also enjoyed the filler episodes, especially since there weren't that many of them so I didn't become exasperated for the plot to continue. I think season 1 and 3 are my favourite seasons so far.

So far l'm also really enjoying the season 4 episodes in space. It's nice to get a change of scenery and allows for new experiences. At the moment I'm preferring it to the space episodes in 2k3 which seemed to drag on for me. I don't know what bothered me about it. It was probably because it happened after Shredder picked his head up off the ground and I wanted to get back to Shredder. I haven't disliked any of the episodes and I love the Fugitoid. I also like Mikey and April this season as well as the rest except Casey (maybe that's why I don't like season 2 :lol:)

Less downhill and more "sauntering slightly downward."

The things that were great about the show remain so: Animation, Voice Acting, Character design.

Things that were touch and go, have gotten more so: Storytelling episode to episode, overarching plot, general tone.

Season 1 was Fantastic, Seasons 2 and 3 were Great, except season 3 had a bad start. Season 4 seems to be the same as season 3,with the next two episodes sounding really good. The original team leaving really hurt the show.

This thread needs to be locked. Just a bunch of venting from disgruntled adults over a children's cartoon.

If that's the criteria for locking a thread, then the whole forum should be locked.

We have a venting thread already. This thread is the same thing.

Wrong, we already have a thread involving a similar thing though.

It's obvious he wants this locked because he doesn't want to hear what some have to say that isn't 100% positive.

Cubed, will you ever admit that the Fred Wolf show was deeply flawed and that the Nick cartoon has some serious issues? It's okay to still like them, but admit they have problems.

I don't know why. It's not like our criticism is going to get the show changed or cancelled.

Also the FW toon went 10 season so this one is definitely going to at least go 10 seasons. Right Cubed?
