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

*Shark_Blade* · 10-12-2014, 12:08 AM

I would let Dominic continue voicing as Leo (I'm still trying to get used to Seth's voice though).

I would delete Timothy's existence from ever happening. They could just like found Mutagen Man already mutated and that's good enough.

I would show human Irma being captured and hidden by Kraangs.

----

Oh, you mean only one?

.... Irma then. I want that girl back with the gang.

*ssjup81* · 10-12-2014, 12:23 AM

Have Jess Harnell on the show to voice a character to work with Greg Cipes and Rob Paulsen!

Ok seriously, tea time girl!

TurtleGuy · 10-12-2014, 12:23 AM

Xever still being a human. He hasn't really done anything mutanty since his mutation unlike Bradford(aside from biting Raph) and I liked his human design.

*CyberCubed* · 10-12-2014, 12:42 AM

Bring in da humans! Less mutants.

RedOnYellow · 10-12-2014, 12:49 AM

'Major plot point is dropped' (Splinter revealing to Leo that Karai is his daughter, Karai getting mutated, etc.)

'Major plot point is completely dropped off the face of the earth for 1/3rd of the season'.

So frustrating. Part of what made The Invasion so grand was that it immediately followed Into Dimension X!

*BabyTurtles* · 10-12-2014, 12:56 AM

This is so hard....

I was stuck between changing April's story/changing up some of the characters/and shipping

...but shipping won XD....I would love the shipping to be totally gone from this show~

*Shark_Blade* · 10-12-2014, 01:04 AM

I didn't even see a poll when this thread started, it's literally not there!

*reads options*

Leofan26 · 10-12-2014, 01:04 AM

Hmm, so many good choices to pick from, my main beef with the series is all this romance stories they keep adding

I'd like to add in skipping around with major arcs going on, one moment we are dealing with personal issues like Karai's secret than oohs filler sorry, couple of episodes later " By the way, she's our sister folks! " No reactions either, you would have thought of all plot twists that'd have affected them emotionally the most, nothing

I was taking my time reading over and thinking of the options when it came poll choices, and to my surprise, it already posted the thread before I finished creating the poll!

Whoops...

Sorry about that...

That would fit into the "Plot/Arc Amnesia" option too, where these storywriting details are not actively addressed in subsequent episodes.

*IndigoErth* · 10-12-2014, 01:12 AM

As of this moment after the most recent episode... The show wants you to want one of the guys, just pick a damn boyfriend already. I. Don't. Even. Care. if you want to be young and experimental and try being with a talking turtle person.. either just choose, or I bludgeon you to death with a foam Nerf bat. And that will take a while. It will soon be to the point that an awkward human/turtle-person pairing will be less painful than an continuing triangle. (Or is that what the show has been waiting for, to be tired of it long enough that people give up and are fine with it.)

*Luckyday* · 10-12-2014, 01:30 AM

I didn't vote for this, but Plot/Arc Amnesia is something IMO that can cause problems for the long term.

I agree with that!

The character was well designed, her sassyness was great and April needs someone from her life (besides Casey) that it's not mutated or robotized.

*neatoman* · 10-13-2014, 10:19 AM

Fewer incidental characters would be nice.

coxfire · 10-13-2014, 10:32 AM

I know it is a kid show, but I'd like it to be more mature, sometimes, with the way they handle the humor but also the characters. A deeper character "analysis" would be interesting.
As for the shipping: I don't mind the idea of Apritello (I don't care, TBH), but the way they go at it with the triangle and how it impacts Donnie's character isn't that good
I'd like to see more interactions of Splinter with Turtles other than Leo, too. He needs more guidance because he's the leader, but the rest of the guys are still 16 year-old boys, they do need him too.

PangolinFeets · 10-13-2014, 11:32 AM

One of the things I like about this show so much is its the first version of them that actually makes me see them as teenagers. I feel like being a little girl-crazy is such an integral part of being a teenager that it has to be included. Granted, its annoying to see Casey and Donnie fighting and Donnie focuses on April a lot, but overall its an addition that I like.

I wish Karai did NOT have snake hands. I really wish she wasnt mutated in the first place.

I really liked the Tigerclaw episode where he and Splinter spoke Japanese. I wish elements like that could be used more often.

kolaida · 10-15-2014, 06:44 PM

I don't mind the crush Donnie has on April but sometimes it can be a bit much. I'd make it more subtle and not have it such a huge part of the show. Also, I've seen fans say they ship a couple that's already been confirmed in a show so I don't see what the big deal is with using the word "shipping" but whatever. I mean it's not a term I would ever actually use in real life conversation, lol.

Everything else I've pretty much liked for the most part. I mean, I have some other things, but I would consider them nitpicky. Overall, I'm okay with things except the love triangle thing being so in my face. Though it does have some cute moments. I don't know, I keep waiting for it to grow on me, hasn't really happened.

Though, I have liked the Leo/Karai bits.
