NT:TNM cartoon version?

I was browsing websites yesterday and I read something about a proposed animated version of Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation. It was supposibly planned after the live action series ended, but never went into production. Is this true?

Yes there was some kind of plan for an animated version of TNM. There was a cell released but only one. It got canned early on I suppose. No big loss... the new show ROCKS!

Yes the new show rocks, but still I would have loved to see a cartoon version of it.

By the way, can you point me in the direction of that cell, please?

It wasn't a "cell," it was a lithograph. I have one and can post a pic later this weekend.

I don't believe there was anything more to the animated rumors than just rumors.

Why would they want to do a cartoon version of TNM when it did so badly?

I think they hoped to do one near the beginning of the premeire. TNM did actually score quite alright ratings while on its run.

A cartoon version might have been ok. It was really how the live action show was done that turned it off. Probably would have been much better as a cartoon.

You know how your always saying that bashers should stay out of your threads? (like PR) Well, maybe you should take your own advice. I'm not a TNM fan, but I don't go to every thread on it and mock it or people who do like it, and you and Jarrah going at each other is getting really annoying.

They've got a point....a cartoon TNM might have actualy been better. Mind you I didn't HATE TNM but it's deffinetly my least favorite TMNT thing...and I have the anime...so that's kinda saying a lot...speaking of which it's been a long time since I watched that. @.@

Okay, I have heard that a cartoon version of TNM had been tossed around as an idea. I guess they felt that the show would do better in animation than live action. After all, look at the quality of the live action suits and such. In animation, they could at least make it *look* a little better.
