Defining Series Episodes

What's up? Brand new to the forums. Lil bit about myself, obsessed over TMNT growing up(big surprise) and hearing that a new version that is separating itself from the ones before it, yet taking elements from others has got me completely intrigued.

With this new iteration of the Turtles I was wondering, if you could sum up each series with one episode, what would it be?

For the 87 series for me it would have to be all the early episodes made be Toei(Do I have the right company?) Imo the animation is simply ahead of the rest of the series.(I tend to be very visual) And if I were to single out one episode, it would be the last of that season. I think it exemplifies the series as a whole. We get both Shredder and Krang, the introduction of the 'blimp' (If I'm not mistaken) and the goofiness factor with a monster Krang stomping through New York. Very comedic and light hearted.

As far as "Next Mutation" is concerned. Avoided it all together. Hearing the hate spewed toward the series, guess I didn't miss out on much. What's the hate towards Venus anyway? Like I said, never bothered to watch the series.

The 4kids series, is easily my favorite version of the turtles, thus far. I love the character designs of everyone and how they've managed to adapt major storylines into the series. Sadly I can't really give an answer to this because life gets in the way, so couldn't invest too much into it.

'Fast Foward' took me completely out of it, by the time 'Back To The Sewers' aired I pretty much thought their best days were behind them.
