Anything up to season 5 it just goes downhill from that point.
But season 3 or 4 is probley the best, so you should watch that.

Seasons 1, 2, 3, 7, 8 and 10 are the best but 4, 5, and 6 have a number of great eps too.

Uh, no. Seasons 6-8 are great and have much tighter written stories than parts of 4 and 5. The last two depend of you like Lord Dregg.

thanks but i was talking of episodes not entire seasons

Well, it's my opinion that they weren't as good as the first few seasons

*ToTheNines* · 02-02-2013, 11:30 AM

All of season 1, probably all of season 2 (maybe skip New York's shiniest).

Most of season 3 is great, but since it's so long I'll hit you with my favorites:

Beneath These Streets, Turtles on Trial, The Maltese Hamster, The Old Switcheroo, Burnes Blues, Enter the Rat King, The Ninja Sword of Nowhere, 200000 Leaks Under the Sea, Take me to Your Leader, Cowabunga Shredhead, Return of the Fly, Casey Jones: Outlaw Hero, Corporate Raiders from Dimension X, Beware the Lotus, Leatherhead, Usagi Yojimbo, Usagi Come Home, The Making of Metalhead, Leatherhead Meets The Rat King, The Grybyx, ShredderVille, and The "Big Triology"/season 3 finale'.

If you liked those episodes enough, I'd recommend finishing season 3. Seasons' 4, 5, and 6 are pretty rough, but there's some gems hidden in there. Season 7 was mostly excellent. Red Sky seasons were.... uninspired.

Seasons 6, 7 and 8 have much better action and plots.

The show actually remains at the same level of writing though, so it never actually goes downhill.

Oh, ok sure turtles second mutation was at the same level of writing as season one?

What the hell are you talking about? The Turtles mutations don't happen till Season 9 and end in early Season 10.

And what unfinished plots are you talking about?

Carter was actually a pretty cool and likable character, but it was troubling how they shoved him down our throats all season long. I would have preferred him in a "Casey Jones capacity" rather than "instant 5th turtle".

They never even made a toy of him, so it makes even less sense that he was in like every single scene.

Playmates never made toys of any of the last season characters though. Not even Berserko or Titanus from Season 8.

Watch as much as possible, seasonwise. Season 4-5 are much for you if you get tired on Shredder and Krang episodes, and want some solo-adventures (where one turtle goes off, usually to the countryside, and team up with some other, to fight off a gangster or mad scientist). Circa half of the episodes are such episodes in thsoe seasons.

I still don't like him.

I love how you're confusing Season 9 characters with seasons 5-7.

I knew carter and the turtles second mutations were seasons 9 and 10, when I was talking about seasons 5-7 I was just saying that I didn't like them as much as the first few seasons. You are an idiot.

What's your problem with Season 7? It's one of the best seasons of the show. Seasons 6 and 5 also have a number of great eps

I just don't like it as much as previous seasons, can I not like something without reason? Sorry if I offended you in this argument let's just stop.

I want to know why because you didn't explain. I would recommend those seasons to everyone.

Season 5 is hit of miss but there are a number of good ones.
