I'm not really a fan of the whole deal, but I enjoyed Keno & Cody. Vote went for Cody though 'cause I feel like only counting the cartoons.

Not a big fan of any of them..but I went with Cody because he was the most developed. Angel was ok, but she was only in what, 2-3 episodes?

Eh, I did find Carter the most decent of them all even though none were all that great.

Unfortunately, I can't vote. I don't know anything about Angel or Cody. Out of the remaining ones, though, I'd go with Keno and this is my bias coming through with this. As a kid, I just found him to be so darn cute!!

"Yeeeahhhh...I'd keep practicing." - Keno! He was likable, relatable, and Reyes Jr. is an incredible martial artist.

I liked that about Keno too. He had some fun lines.

Keno was nothing more than a stand-in for Casey in the second movie.

Let's face it, Casey really should have had his role, especially when he and Raph got to infiltrate the Foot Clan in the second movie. In fact his role and Casey was almost interchangeable, the only thing you'd have to change was of course Casey already knowing the turtles as opposed to Keno.

I actually did wonder where Casey was for movie 2, and yeah, seems Casey would've been perfect for movie 2, given all that happened for it.

I always liked Keno. I would love to see them bring him back.

I'm not really a fan of any of them, but I had to vote for Keno for 2 reasons, one was that he delivered pizza, so at least he can provide the Turtles with a pizza fix. The other reason is because he's got one of my favorite lines from the second movie:

Street Girl: "Dream on dweeb!"

Keno: "Yeah ok, but when I do it'll be of something a little thinner!"


What a jerk!

Most of those choices weren't even teens. I pick... the lesser of the evils... whoever that might be.


J/K. Cody was less of a punk than the rest of the kids. Carter was a college grad, wasn't he?

I wanted to say kid but Carter seemed older even though he was called a kid on the offical TMNT site. Zach was said to be almost fourteen and Carter was said to be a teen on wikipedia that was why I listed them as teens.

Carter said he was "going back to college" in one of the Season 10 eps.

Really? Where at? I thought big bro Walt was 14 in his appearances and Zach was more of a preteen.

Exactly what I was referring to, but I guess since 19 is still technically a teen, then...

I always liked Keno, but Cody was family. He gets the vote.

My vote goes to Angel. Her story of meeting the turtles makes the most sense.
