Which show is your favorite?

For me, it's either 2012 or 2003.

They are all good.
I really enjoy the new show, but I have realized that after nearly a year, I have never revisited any of the episodes.
The 2003 stuff is great and I find myself cycling through it, and I think I'm in my third sitting since the new series started.
The classic show though, is just that, classic. If video files could get fuzzy and worn like a VHS tape, then my video files would need replaced. I was so pleased to get that release of the Turtles van DVD collection, and that was all watched straight through.
Not saying that the other shows are not good..quite the opposite, as I think they are both great as well. Just the Classics would be my Turtles of choice.

The 4Kids TMNT series is not only my favorite TMNT series of all time, it's very likely my favorite action cartoon of all time. It wasn't perfect, but it was a truly outstanding cartoon.

Hmm, I'd have to go with the 2003 series now. It's so much more of what I'd always hoped the OT could be- more bada$$ery, more continuity, more interesting storys- and every bit as fun and wild. While te OT still has a special place in my heart, and always will, I think I've turned into an 03 TMNT die-hard now!

Hard to pick between 2k3 and 2k12. Both are my two favorite animated versions of TMNT. But if I had to chose one.... I'd go with 2k12.

I gotta go with 2k3. I'm still giving 2k12 the benefit of the doubt, but more and more often I'm getting "jerk" vibes from all the characters that're seriously starting to rub me the wrong way. I get it, they're teenage boys, they're going to get rough and rude with each other. But I feel like 2k3 handled that element better while still keeping the turtles likable in a way that I'm not getting from the 2k12 turtles quite so much. Plus, 2k3's ability to create and keep up with their story arcs instead of the disjointed mess we're getting from 2k12 was also really awesome And sadly, I have yet to actually watch more than just a handful of eps from the 80s show so I can't really make a legitimate decision regarding them.

I'm gonna go with 2012 because it has awesome action scenes and can sometimes be a little serious when it needs too like 2003, but it's also a little light hearted and silly like the OT. It's a perfect mix IMO.

As a kid the 87 show, now the 2k3 show as I find it difficult to watch most of the old series. Tho the first few seasons are great for nostalgia from time to time I think they did a good job with the 2003 show. The new show isn't quite my cup of tea, a couple of the episodes have been pretty decent but it isn't quite enough to make me want to watch it at all. With that said I'll likely watch the rest of it I was probably around episode 14-15 or so but never make a habit of watching it.

I am watching the 1980's one now. The 2003 and 2012 ones are pretty good. It is to soon to see if 2012's will be a flunk or not. So far it is extremely good. Wish they would finish those final episodes but they seem held up for some reason. 2003 is pretty reasonable in my book. Peter added a lot of realism. Also, am I the only one who noted that they did what Peter Laird hated and added the feet / hand wrappings? Gave me a chuckle.

Wow, shocked the first series has so little votes, thought that was a fan favorite

I think its a tie between the 2003 and 2012 series for me though, both did a good job. I think I'd say 2003 right now, depends on how the seasons go later on down the road for 2012 series, see they all grow and what story arcs happen

I grew up with the original cartoon, but voted for the newest series from Nick - it's fantastic!

I like all of them honestly. However, if I had to choose which series I like at the moment, definitely 2K12. It's the perfect blend of OT and 2K3 for me.
