Well, Foot Clan Major's take on this is the Turtles: the Next Mutation was THE WORST representation of the turtles.

I would also state that it was created by SABAN, the unadulterated masters of weak storylines. Just look at the first Power Rangers Season, every week it was a witch shouting "GROW, GROW"!!!

It was a little WORSER than the THIRD TMNT movie, with more lacklustre fighting, cartoonish sound effects and cringeworthy material.

What i despise about it, is in one episode Shredder is made to look like an ALSO-RAN, a WIMP and a JOBBER. The Foot Clan were blubbering idiots in it.

Venus was an original idea, but i don't think she was the main cause of the rot. It's just BAD TASTE TV.

Such a shame as they made the sewer much like the one in TMNT 2 and 3, yet bad editing and storylines.

And WOW! Some members in here get famous and well-known like Jarrah? Wonder if i will become famous or popular?

You make Jarrah sound like a Technodrome Forum celebrity. Any other Technodrome Forum celebrities???

I thought that the shredder they had was just awful because of his acting. The foot were idiots, like when shredder yelled at a foot clan soilder about the training of the foot soilders and ask what did the turtle have a pink flower when one said but the rat had a stick. That was wierd when shredder mutered to himself but the rat had a stick and laughed, and called 2 of the foot soilders that failed bumbling idiots or something like that and stop their wimpering as they were wimpering and repeated just what shredder was saying to them when they were grovling to him. I like the movie and new and old toon shredder better than this one.

What do you mean about shredder as a jobber, the one where he was found on the streets. That ep was not really a comback for shredder since he did not have his uniform. it was amusing on that ep when shredder yelled in their faces and the turtles were grossed out because of his breath.

Not pointing fingers, I've been banned from certain forums before and I was able to get back simply by switching to another e-mail account
Theres two kinds of Ban theres regular ban then theres IP ban. If you were IP banned the only way you could re-join or even see the forum would be to call up your internet provider and give them a damn good reason to your IP. Hackers tend to change their IPs alot If you can re-join a forum by just entering a new email adress your account was just banned not your IP.
I know this because I used to work on many many many forums

Heh... I looked up pics for TNM which were scarce to find but-- damn, did they ever look wrestler-ish.

That's so... horrible.

The Next Mutation followed the movie timeline, right?

I watched it maybe twice back in the day, and I rememebr them living in the same abandoned subway station from the second and third movie. That and the fact the show was live action and all.

I never got to see any of the Shredder episodes. The Shredder, in any form, is always worth watching. Plus it's good to see he survived the peir falling on him. C'mon, that wouldn't kill anyone, especially not a mutagen-enhanced Super Shredder.

But then I was reading the ep reviews at the official site and read that he turns good? And becomes a hobo or something? Weak.

Oh, and if Venus was at least hot and had a personality I might not have deemed her crap after only 2 episodes.

They didnt explain how Shredder came back and when he did he was just a normal human again. They also beat him in the first episode I only saw him in two episodes....

I guess the Mutagen just wore off or something. Was he still all scarred to Hell like in the second movie?

Actuallym it was never specified what universe it's suppose to take after....Although I guess it's kinda just assumed that it takes place after the movies. But in reality the only reason they used the subway set was because it was easier to use that one than just build a whole new one.

He's saying it because there's nothing saying they're connected to the movies.

I'd just think it was obvious, with the subway set being from the movies and the fact that the show's live action and all. That's the impression I always got.

But I guess since there was no opening narration explaining to the masses "Following the events of Ninja Turtles 3..." everyone's left to draw their own conclusions.

And as I said before, they used the subway set because it was already there....They didn't have to build or desing their own. They took the cheap way out.

I thought Next Mutation was ok at the time....cuz anything Turtles was really scarce back then. Didn't like the idea of Venus, but I dunno...I still time-taped all the shows, so I guess that says something...

Looking back, it is definitely my least favorite Turtles show. But it's kind of cool that Turtles actually had three different shows.... it's getting up there with Scooby Doo.....you have your hits and misses. nt tnm is what it is.. without Venus, it would still have corny sfx and bad mouth movements, cardboard stories, etc. But there is still something enjoyable buried there somewhere...
