Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

I've been a longtime fan of the Ninja Turtles for as long as I can remember. Over the last 40 years there have been a lot of excellent shows, and there have been a few REALLY bad ones. I initially thought this would be somewhere in the middle after seeing the commercials. However, I was pleasantly surprised by this one. It accomplishes what the predeceasing movie could not with flying colors (pun and reference intended). It took its time to explore the character of each turtle, which is ALWAYS appreciated. In addition to this, the show also does a wonderful job of expanding the world of New York City and the rouges within it. You will see characters from existing iterations return with Seth Rogan's spin to them, as well as be introduced to whole new characters that you have never seen before. SPOILER ALERT: While some of the new characters will seem a little boring in the beginning, you won't feel that way for very long.

While the art style will NOT be for everyone, I personally found it much better than the 3D style from the movie. It's colorful, scratchy, a little choppy (which actually compliments the many action scenes throughout the show). Love it or hate it, at least we can say it's better than TMNT 2012... (sorry not sorry).

It's a fun, action-packed, and even at times compelling cartoon that all generations can enjoy. It may not be the best, but it may be one of the best for me.

This show is great for kids who want to get into TMNT and I would definitely recommend this me personally as a fan I thought it was alright it's not the best but it's not a bad show and the Donatello episode is probably my favorite episode and he's my favorite turtle too I like how the style of the show is like a ruff sketch book. I really like the references they make to pop culture and overall this show is a good show and while it may not be the best it's still great show 7.3/10 I would definitely love to see a season 2 and Casey Jones in this show but I still prefer rise and 2012 tbh but yeah.

I love the TMNT franchise as a whole so much, however I really wish they tried a bit harder with this series. The story was interesting enough to keep me watching for both of the stories in the season (Bishop and the East River Three), but there is one big problem I had. THEY SEPARATE THE BROTHERS EVERY TIME!!!! I understand that this was the main story they were going for, especially with the Bishop plot, but it made the show so much less interesting because I came here for the turtles and not them hanging out with these randos...! They tried to show the brothers getting along with the other mutants when they could've just found a way to include the other mutants without separating them again. I just couldn't force myself to care about the others. The conflict they introduced with The River Three was very interesting, and I wish they just added more to those guys instead of including the mutants from the movie.

If I were to change anything, I'd say I'd rather the story have followed the boys actually going to high school and then the conflict growing from there so we get to see some of how their life is after the movie- not just getting straight into the action and chases. I think that's one thing that disappointed the most is that we lose some of the continuity and the series doesn't just pick up after the movie. The whole season just felt like a completely new movie instead of a series continuation.

As always, the action was great and the style of the show is just incredible! Especially the action they did with Goldfin and the boys on the yacht. Despite my grievances, I will definitely tune in if they choose to make another season.

KICK! SMASH! And Pizza! You know what this calls for? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! They are back with a lot of battles against... robots. As a big fan of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and a lover of action animated series, I love Tales Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The storyline follows Leonardo (Nicolas Cantu) writing an adventure story about the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles where a lady named Bishop (Alanna Ubach) wants to eliminate them for destroying her lab. In the adventure, they all learn from different experiences: Raphael (Brady Noon) learns how to distract; Donatello (Shamon Brown Jr) learns how to go beast mode; Michelangelo (Micah Abbey) finds out how to make better strategies and Leonardo unlocks his independence. Plus, they team up to fight Bishop.

This series is really good. I just love how each ninja has its moment. It is just so amazing - especially learning the reason that each of them has their own friend or has created something. This story is a new story. There are no monsters but a lot of robots. The story was written by Seth Rogen. It is just amazing how we dig into Leonardo's comedic personality. That is really cool. The animation is really cool. One of my favorite parts is when Leonardo explains to the Turtles how to take down Bishop -- such a good plan. And, I also love that the background is not perfect 3D or perfect 2D animation; it is a comic sketch in the background. They tried to make it resemble a comic book and I love that. I really love how every character except Leonardo makes a plan on their own and they all use the same line: that Leo's job. When they get back together and fight Bishop it is the best fight of the series and is awesome. The character animation by James A. Castillo is outstanding; I love the suits they have at Bishop's factory.

The show's message is to always take advice because you never know when you will need it - just like every ninja. There is some negative language used; at some times the word idiot is used.

I give Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 4.5 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 12, plus adults. This film begins streaming on Paramount+ August 9, 2024. By Ryan R., KIDS FIRST!

Now, I am a die hard fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles since the 2003 animated tv series and I've loved all of the movies, with the exception of the two Michael Bay produced movies, and yes I do enjoy Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III (1993). Last year, I saw Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem (2023) in the movie theater and I loved it, so I was excited when I heard about this tv show and after watching it, we're still on the road of awesomeness with this franchise.

Positives for Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2024-): First off, I love the animation use for this show to where it is like hand-drawn and my favorite style of animation has always been hand-drawn. I loved all of the episodes of this show to where our four favorite Ninja Turtles. I enjoyed the main villains of the East River Three and the interaction that they had with the Turtles. There are some awesome action sequences in this show and they are among the best fights in the Ninja Turtle Franchise. And finally after watching Season 1, I can't wait for Season 2 to come out and this show has me even more excited for the second movie with this incarnation of TMNT.

Overall, Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2024-) was yet another phenomenal entry into the TMNT Franchise and it's another reminder as to why I love these characters so much.
