P: This show has some great storylines.

N: Sadly, said storylines are rarely alluded to unless an episode calls for it.

P: Donnie and Leo are fantastic and I love their stories
N: Mikey could use a little work (I love him, though!) and Raph could use more story

P: The show has some interesting villain concepts....
N: ....But many of the villains are either underdeveloped or overshadowed by the kraang.

I agree with this~ it'd be nice to see more continuity even if it's a different storyline going on in the episode.

Positive: I really like the Mutagen Man arc.
Negative: However, the show always treats Timothy like a Butt Monkey, even while he is mutated.

Positive-Love the interpretations of the guys (Donnie has some spunk, Mikey is funny at times, Leo has pretty good chemistry with his bros, and Raph shows a good mixture of the sibling who bullies you, but stands up for you when needed.

Negative-I have to jump on this band wagon, Leo and Donnie are great, but way too much focus on them, not enough on Raphael and Mikey.

Positive: Has a good balance of action and humor, and its cast of villians are pretty cool.
Negative: too many villians are one offs and the cool ones get nerfed way too early.

N: The Kraang Conspiracy, another generic Kraang episode.
P: Metalhead Rewired showed how good Kraang episodes can be again.

N. The characterizations of the turtles make them unlikeable, immature and unrelateble 90% of the time, thus hardly making me root for some of my altime favorite characters
N.The AprilxDon "romance" has stifled BOTH their characters from growing beyond that "subplot"
N. April is an obnoxious, irreparable Mary Sue
N. Splinter's parenting is highly questionable and just plain lazy a majority of the time
N. The story arcs are practically nonexistant despite the shows' lame insistence that they still exist (either do a serialized plot, or one-off episodes that can be watched out of order, trying to do both is distracting and irritating)
N. The show is overrun with one-off characters shoe-horned in to satisfy OT obsessed fanboys

P. It's nice to see the turtles with some varying degrees of physical build and unique looks
P. Casey Jones is perfect-from his looks to his attitude, his character is pulled off amazingly well
P. Leatherhead's introduction was awesome as well as the somewhat different spin on his character and I hope to see more of him soon
P. Slash and Destroy was a perfect episode-plain and simple
P. The Rat King is executed horrifically amazing and is a villain I hope will receive his own proper arc at some point
P. Mikey's freckles are finally canon

My only negative is there are too many animal mutants as villains, and not enough human enemies. I don't really want to see every villain the Turtles come across to be another mutant.

N-Serious lack of mothers, and likable female characters in general. (They're either bitches, brats or pushovers)

P-However, the little girl Leo had tea with was totally adorable, like to see her turn out to be somebody the Turtles can trust later on.

Why yes. That's why I said it. He's my favorite version of him of all three television series (as I don't believe he showed up in NM), and is rivaled only by the 90s film version. He's the one character I've felt is truly done well 100% and hoping he continues to stay that way as the series progresses.

Negative- Mikey's treatment as the "walking joke factory" (and little else) and his dumbing down.

Positive- I love the plot-twist of Karai/Miwa and the relationships between the various characters. (Not the romance aspect, just the various character interactions.)

Why? I like him. I like his design, I like his voice, and I like the way he acts and interacts with the turtles and April. There you go.

No, explain why you think this is the best version of the character...
