Casey Jones the worst character?

It seems that no matter how grave the situation is, Casey always finds it "wicked" and "sick". I think he's the worst character.

Nick Casey, to me is not Casey Jones. He's too annoying and is only there because Casey is such a popular character. The show has done NOTHING with him, and it sucks because Casey has such potential as a character.

Even if Mirage Casey was intended to be a parody of vigilantes, it's still a damn cool idea.

It really does. I know you all think I'm an asshole to cubed, but when he acts like a dick head to newer members for no reason, it really hurts this place. It's unfair to the new people and it's unfair to the rest of us who might like more diversity to the discussions here... rather than hearing about 150 episodes for the millionth time, or his woody for that derpface Benoist.

Anyways, on topic. While they did a great job with CJ's design, the Nick version leaves something to be desired. On top of him being annoying, I miss him having an actual friendship with Raph. Also wish he was actually crazy, but that's never too late!

I pretend that's just some other kid that follows them around. I can't think of him as Casey when, characteristically, he is nothing like Jones. At least in my opinion

What does this mean? Casey's personality is always wildly different from incarnation.

Mirage = Starts off a maniac but then calms down and becomes a father

Fred Wolf = Complete maniac

4kids = Is a bit of a moron, becomes a bit of a joke and teddy bear although a good fighter

90's movies = Probably the most realistic interpetation of what Jones would be if he existed in real life

IDW = College kid trying to do right by his dad (who is Hun in that version)

Nick = High school kid who is metal


See, this is why I don't understand what you people want. You guys claim characters are not the same, when every version does something different.

He's there simply because people expect him to be there, but as far as I can tell, they've done little to nothing with the character other than "extra in a hockey mask."

Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yep. Nick Casey doesn't even bond with Raph. What the f*ck, man?

Casey's alright. Not great, but just about everything the OP said about him can be applied to Mondo Gecko, and I find MG to be substantially more obnoxious, and less useful, too.

just about ever character other than splinter, karai, shredder and donny is pretty goofy in this series, but Casey seems to be there for the stupid love triangle angle and isn't useful for much else.

Even 4Kids casey improved enough to be able to learn some ninjitsu and take on kahn pretty evenly.

this show isn't focused so much on usefulness as it is stupid humor and annoying characters.

Mondo Gecko has to be the second most worthless character. even pigeon pete could fly at least ;o)
