Mark Kingston, Senior Vice President (SVP), International Licensing at ViacomCBS Consumer Products, has revealed that Nickelodeon and Paramount are planning to release brand new Video-on-Demand (VOD) Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles content in 2023!

Speaking to LicensingSource about ViacomCBS Consumer Products' upcoming highlights, Kingston revealed: “We’re also thrilled to see new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles content coming to viewers screens on VOD in 2023, as well as a new Paramount movie.”

Not much is currently known about the new TMNT content for streaming services, including whether it'll tie-in to Nickelodeon and Paramount's upcoming TMNT movie, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Next Chapter, currently set to be released in theaters on August 11, 2023, or be standalone content, featuring a whole new take of the beloved justice-sworn, pizza-fuelled, half-shelled heroes. It's also currently not known whether the project will be a full series, short-form content or a feature length film, and what VoD service the content is for.

And there we go with trapping them on streaming.

Would be nice if it was both their own and the more commonly had ones like Netflix, but not holding my breath on that happening.

But then everyone would complain that if nobody watched it on television it would get cancelled.

Another raffle-ticket at the world's largest fair. Hope we win and get something good, but in the meantime, I'll be passed out behind the cotton-candy machine.

Psh, on steaming it will probably be too short to cancel anyhow. Eight episodes with total radio silence on if it would ever continue.

Oh to dream of a slightly more mature, long running animated series just being on a regular tv channel that airs prime time cartoons aimed at teens and adults... lord knows that's totally unfathomable.

Streaming?
Good. Pirates would their hands faster on that thing.

*CyberCubed* · 01-05-2022, 07:41 PM

Sounds like it'll be shorts to me, like the previous ones they made.

*IndigoErth* · 01-05-2022, 08:20 PM

If we're lucky maybe they'll do like they did with their Spongebob spin off and also air it on cable at a later time.

If they strictly intend on putting it on Paramount+ only, can some of you even access it? It doesn't look like it's even available to all that many countries.

I don't see streaming services being all that good for fandoms, to be honest.

Limiting the audience, and then they'd probably never bother to release any DVD/Blu-ray sets in that case, so if/when they eventually remove it someday... yup say goodby to ever revisiting it.

*LeotheLateBloomer* · 01-05-2022, 10:24 PM

Given how Viacom in general has handled the IP lately, I'd rather they not give us much. I just don't trust them with TMNT anymore to even care.

*sdp* · 01-05-2022, 11:37 PM

We're still missing a few of the summer shorts, they stopped likely due to lack of fanfare and the year after they said they would release the missing ones but they never did.

*Andrew NDB* · 01-06-2022, 01:17 AM

You guys think they're going to release the missing shorts as a pay thing? *sigh* I don't see it. Maybe as 1 big anthology of all of the missing ones plus more. Nobody is going to pay to see that stuff that isn't the hardest core of the hardcore fans.

*shredder orokusaki* · 01-06-2022, 05:01 AM

Will the new series be on Netflix like the movie? I WILL KILL THE TURTLES AGAIN AND SPLINTER!

*CyberCubed* · 01-06-2022, 06:34 AM

I don't know, I can't see another full-length cartoon this soon after Rise bombed. That was probably a wake-up call for Nick that they can't just have any random TMNT cartoon on the air and expect it to be a success. I imagine they'll be a longer cooldown period before they do the next show.

*IndigoErth* · 01-06-2022, 03:08 PM

Or it's like... Hey, the toys aren't pulling in the profits these days, so lets make them pay more to see this stuff by locking it on our streaming service. And lets be sure to promote it in a way to get as much interest, excitement, and subs as possible to get that cash! THEN -- big reveal! -- we'll show them the most humiliated derpiest version ever!

Given the choice, I think the only thing I would want would be a TMNT 2012 movie to give that show a better ending. You could do it easily. Just have Renet show up, time travel the Apocalypse turtles back in time to before the Mutagen bomb, where they team up with their younger selves to avert the apocalypse. Then everything isn't rendered totally pointless and everyone who wants Mutant Apocalypse to be canon can be happy too.

Sure. I could see people digging a 2012 movie of some kind. I'm really surprised Nick hasn't done anything like that yet for 2012. They have all the CGI assets and towns and all from the show pre-made.

*CyberCubed* · 01-07-2022, 04:55 PM

Any 2012 movie would likely take place right after the series ended to use the Turtles/April in their recognizable teen designs, they wouldn't make a movie taking place when the mutagen bomb went off which they were 18ish I believe at that point.

Not really. The whole show takes place over the course of what, 3 - 5 years, roughly, taking into accout the timeskips? At no point do they look any older. That's just the nature of most animation, especially CGI. They could just use their character models circa season 5 and no one would bat an eye. Plus, it's really the only worthwhile story left to tell, if they were going to do anything. The show was basically over after "End Times."

*neatoman* · 01-07-2022, 07:22 PM

Does this mean Viacom essentially considers Nickelodeon dead? If the idea is to make the next TMNT cartoon a Paramount+ original, doesn't that mean they believe they can reach a wider audience on there than Nickelodeon? I think they already did the same thing with that CGI Star Trek cartoon, that one still has the Nickelodeon logo on it and it ended up debuting on Paramount+ anyway. Not that I would blame them, Nickelodeon ratings really are so poor these days that I totally believe Paramount+, a thing that literally just exist because Viacom don't want to share their cake with Netflix, receives more attention than Nickelodeon.

*IndigoErth* · 01-07-2022, 11:16 PM

Or they just want to try to use it as bait to get people to buy their streaming.
