Oh, there's plenty wrong with the series&mdash;just not necessarily what Nick thinks it is. They think the 2012 series was too mature and edgy, whereas longtime TMNT comics readers know it was actually very bubblegum as far as TMNT goes. Add to that inconsistent writing and characterization and increasingly wooden dialogue, and there's a great deal to complain about. And that's not even considering rumors that the show's head writers can't get along and keep sabotaging each other. If the 2012 series is that troubled a production, maybe Nick is eager to get rid of the old show and start a new one. As it is, I hear Nick is going to burn off the rest of season 5's unaired episodes (already aired out of production order) to sister network NickToons rather than airing them on Nickelodeon proper. When networks shuffle shows to less-viewed sister networks, it's either a sign that a show's ratings are sinking, or that a show is no longer favored by the network, and I'm guessing it's the latter.
