    Surprise surprise...

    It was indeed as surprise for me when i watched the season premier, i was a little skeptical and scared to watch as one of my favorite childhood memory could be ruined again. I was sooo wrong, this proved not only to be a worthy watch but added some more elements to the individuality of the characters, for example the height, facial expressions all made the Turtles differentiable from each other *(besides the colored eye band/mask of course). I just fell in awe & admiration within the first minutes, there was just one thing though which withheld a 10 star, cowabungaaaaaa. My most used word as a kid was missing and that was a bummer. It does have many more extras to balance the missing but i still anticipate i may hear it. This is indeed a worthy and more than expected successor to the 80's super-hit show.

    My favorite Animated Show of all time!!!!!

    WOW! This show is amazing. The filler episodes in this show are actually make sense and are good. Has some emotional moments. Great Fight scenes. Intense episodes as well as moments! Great! Overall!

    They Really Nailed all the Turtles and most of the characters. Raph was done perfect, Donnie Perfect, Leo was good but turn into Great we Seth Green played him, Mikey is exactly the Mikey we need in these shows.

    Other Characters like Splinter, Leatherhead, Slash, Future Toid, April, Karai, Casey were all Great!

    The Villains were awesome! This Shredder is one of my favorite villains of all time!!!!

    Other Great Villains like The Kraang, The Triceratons , Tiger claw, Bebop and Rocksteady, fishface, Razar, Newtralizer, Lord Dregg are done sooooo well.

    Overall Great Show 10/10. Couldn't ask for anything more!!

    You would have to be living under a rock not to know who the TNMT are. Even if you don't like them you have to give them the respect that they deserve. Entertaining kids and adults alike for decades.

    I have been a been a fan since I was a kid and am glad they are still around in one form or another. (Except if Michael Bay gets a hold of it. :) )

    This form of the TNMT is great. They have taken some of the ideas from previous series and adapted it to this story. Nick has taken the ideas and applied them for a new generation to enjoy. The CGI is certainly a great idea and it gives the guys a modern look and I like that they have made them more individual.

    Deep down the core of the story is still the same 4 brothers being a team and kicking Shredders butt. But it is more than that it is also about family and applying the things they learn from Splinter in everyday life.

    Leonardo is still the leader. I like this one because he seems to be able to lead but still have a sense of humour. Some of the other series he can be a bit serious and always more worried about how to be a better leader.

    Raphael is still the hot head. He always likes to punish the bad guys and ask questions later. And like the other series his aggressive nature lands him in trouble more often than not and a good source for conflict with Leo. (See Temper turtle)

    Michelangelo is always fun and source of amusement from the other turtles. They always treat him like most brothers do with funny calls and giving him a hard time in a brotherly way. Especially Raph.

    And of course Donatello, I don't know why but he always seems to be the one I connect with (Everyone has their favourite). He is calm, easy going. He seems to be the positive influence in the group always trying to resolve conflicts without resorting to violence. Although he doesn't mind beating a few heads with his bo staff to get his point across. Plus the other turtles would be lost without his tech knowledge and ability to build awesome turtle vehicles and smoke bombs.

    What ever your fancy this show has something for everyone. Little kids and big kids alike.

    Don't think about it too much Buy it, download it, watch it, enjoy!

    Everything a Ninja Turtles fan can wish for, old or new.

    As I can imagine many before me, I've held off watching this new show for a long time, afraid it'd damage the overall feeling I have for TMNT. I'll have to note the nostalgia for TMNT is particularly high for me. And the whole Nickelodium thing made me imagine this new show might turn out too kiddie. But oh man what a wonderful surprise and adventure this show has become to me so far. The new designs took a place in my heart after just one episode, and the action and animation does not disappoint at all. I've fallen madly in love with it. The humor is still present, although way less corny and tacky then in the classic cartoon. And the characters are great. Very great, in fact. It's the writing of this show that has sealed the deal for me. Each turtle's personality comes across flawlessly, and even characters that only make a single or fast appearance stick to the memory. Leatherhead, in that regard, has been a highlight. 'His' episode has been the absolute highlight for me so far. Whereas in the classic cartoon he was just a stupid, 1-dimensional cardboard-cutout side character, in this new incarnation he is emotionally laden and a very effective character you can't help but care for. And the running joke where Mickey reassures his brothers that Leatherhead is 'totally mellow', followed by one of the other Turtles to say something that makes him go absolutely bananas, was just golden.

    The basic premise of the show is still present; the Turtles live in their underground, sewer lair, and get up and out on the streets to kick some robot and alien butt. I can only hope the episodes stay as strong as they have been. Furthermore I hope they have learned by now that messing too much with the premise can make the whole thing tumble towards the ground again. Fast Forward, anyone? Let's not do that again.

    I'm glad the current generation of kids can enjoy a show of this quality, and be introduced to the world of the Ninja Turtles. Highly recommended for fans of the old cartoon and newcomers alike.

    ps. Keeping my fingers crossed for my favorite villain, Armaggon, to make an appearance in a future episode! He's originally from the Archie comics, but I've learned that Laird has brought up the rights so it should be possible.

    Booyakasha!

    A lot of hard work and respect for the original

    Voice acting is great, animation is beautiful, story line is well thought out and interesting, turtles personalities are true to the source, they still have the brotherly bonding, its funny enough for children, just overall great. The only things I could complain about (and its reaching some) is Donnies obsession over April gets old after a while and sometimes Mikey comes across as too immature and incapable. Everything else is great, I love this show and I'm 25
