you would be surprised..the entertainment industry works in rather mysterious ways.. At the end of the day it all will be based on ratings and the popularity of the merch.

I can't wait to read the ratings after the opening. I bet it will have the highest ratings of anything on Saturday mornings for kids.

I wanna bet against you just out of f*cking spite.

I am saying that because look at the huge time square promotion. Now, not every New Yorker is going to watch TMNT at 11am, but at least they're aware of its existence

You have to hand it to Nick, they're doing everything they possibly can to try and re-create the phenomenon TMNT was in the late 80's/early 90's. While it obviously will never be as popular as it once was, they can still create a hit out of it.

I want to see the show become huge like the OT was, but I'll be satisfied as long as it isn't cancelled after season 1 like Thundercats

I think we deserve 3 or 4 seasons at least!

I know Nick has expressed their devotion to the show, but still, it can't be a cheap show to produce... and if the ratings were truly terrible, it's still possible they could abandon it after a couple years.

[CyberCubed]

Nick owns TMNT 100%, it's not a co-production. They spent $60 million on the purchase and probably another $40-$50 million simply on producing the 26 episodes so far and all the advertising campaign to go along with it.

People always like to be doom and gloom, this series is obviously *at the minimum* going to last as long as the 4kids series did, (7 seasons and around 150 episodes), but if we're really lucky it'll come close to the OT's 10 Seasons and might be the first show to hit the milestone 200th episode.

Cubed, buddy, Nick could pour as much money as the combined national debt of several small nations, and if the series doesn't find an audience they aren't gonna keep pumping cash into a bomb.

Again, we're not trying to be naysayers, but there is a happy medium between, "This isn't what I grew up with, it is 'TEH SUCK!!!!'" and your, "It'll last until the flying spaghetti monster brings about an era of prosperity and delicious garlic bread!"

Airing on Nickelodeon in a prime timeslot (11am on Saturdays, most kids are up by then), alone will make it a success. The toys and advertising will do the rest.

Time slot has as much to do with success as the amount of samollian thrown at it, good sir.

If I ever have a building I need to knock down, I'm using your head as a f*cking wrecking ball.

Yes, I look forward to season 10 and the 200th episode.

I mean, at that point Nick will probably pump a billion dollars into the show, air it six times a day for best exposure and renew it until 2145.
