If you could only change one aspect of the Nick series, what would it be? - Page 4

Kinda wish I hadn't.

Some kinda late to the loading dock on the shipping thing. (Wait, I think I'm using it wrong...)

Personally I prob ran across it (shipping, not 34..that one is much more recent) first a couple years ago after finally seeing Tangled (<3!), saw fan stuff saying someone "ships" Flynn or Rapunzel with some other non-Tangled character... took me a long time to figure out what the heck they meant.

Karai's mutation for sure. And Irma being a Kraang bot. I like to pretend both of those didn't happen. Ugh...that's two. Okay, just Karai's mutation. I still can't get behind it, although making her a shape shifter was a nice touch.

C'mon, that's an extremely popular term. "Shipping" on the other hand, no. That's far too obscure.

Yeah, I wish Karai never got mutated and was with the gang back on the farm. She has yet to have some down time with April since she now has accepted that Splinter is her father. It's a shame what the writers did with Karai.

Status que can be such a pain in the ass sometimes. I wonder if they don't realize that audience of today are into action shows that have actually growth are no longer intuned with shows that episodic?

Well, TPTB seem to think as long as it's geared towards kids, it will do ok. And, that they tend to think kids are stupid, so they dumb some things down. While everyone is freaking out about the ratings, I wonder how each episode is doing on Itunes or amazon? This could be a great indicator to see what people like enough to fork down cash for a single episode.

Ratings problems could be a number of things. One being is not knowing which is best time slot for this show. I really hope this doesn't end up being a Young Justice situation.

Did you mean Jackunzel = Jack Frost x Rapunzel?

I ship them so hard, still do lol.

I chose "Other, explain in post". So here I go...

I'd choose to not have Irma be a robot the whole time (the eff?). Also I'd choose to not have Seth Green voicing Leo. Sorry, but his voice doesn't stick with me as Leo for some reason; sounds too gravelly.

There are other little minor things too, but it's stuff that's already been discussed.

Stop trying to make "ship" happen

I too am disappointed how Karai is still mutated and not on the farm. A few scenes with her trying to adjust to being a snake would be nice, at least until the turtles inevitability find her.
