Ninja Turtle Kids?

While I think it's a cool area of the TMNT history to explore, I'd be happy if they just did a few episodes about it.

Would love if the Nick show did some kind of flashback episode to Splinter with the turtles as kids, when he first started teaching them and stuff. Maybe even have some kind of villain or problem that needs solving in the episode to give it a little more tension.

I dig the 'muppet babies' concept though, but it would obviously have to be set in its own universe... you can't just do, say, a show about the Nick turtles as kids and have it be in continuity... why? Because they don't go up to the surface and discover other mutants and the kraang until S01E01 so it limits what the show can be about DRAMATICALLY. There are some creative ways around it I guess, but still, too limiting.

At the end of the day though, even if they just had baby versions of snakeweed and leatherhead running around in the same show... while cute at first, it just makes no sense and feels weird

Also, relevant:
