Would another Live Action TMNT Series work?

For a few weeks now, I have been thinking, would a 2nd Live Action TMNT Series work? Perhaps after the Nick Series has ended or after the third or fourth Paramount Movie (if there is one)

Here are some elements that might work:

*Have it based on mostly the Mirage Comics, 2003, IDW and parts of the 1990 and 1991 Film and maybe even some 2012 elements thrown into the mix!
*Have mostly characters from the incarnations mentioned above (maybe Bebop and Rocksteady)
*Have a good amount of episodes (say 26 a Season)
*Have some good story lines that are old and new such as City at War, Battle Nexus, The Exposure of the Turtles, Shredder taking over New York, A giant Technodrome Battle and many others that I didn't mention

Here are some reasons on why it might not work:

*It would cost too much to produce as if they use costumes and puppets, it would be too much to make and hire people to work for the project and if they use CGi, that would also be expensive due to all the process it has to go through to get it animate and such
*Going back to costs here, hiring actors would be another problem but also trying to get them to stick around
*This concept failed the first time it was done as the Next Mutation failed, although it got fairly okay ratings and it had somewhat of a success with getting a Power Rangers Crossover and getting somewhat of a fanbase, it was really forgotten about after the early 2000's as its hype was about 1997-2001 and it slowly died after that with it only airing from 1 Season with 26 episodes airing from 1997-1998

So what do you guys think? Would another Live Action Series work? Or would it fail and fall down into obscurity (apart from Ninja Turtles fans of course)
