First, the Kraang aren't dead. When the turtles went back in time to save earth, they changed several significant factors that led to the Technodrome even rising in AE/ELS in the first place. Check out Thread:114738 for my explanation.

Second, I doubt Savanti is ever coming back except as a plot device for another Renet-themed episode. However, I can see Dregg becoming another major antagonist of a season (assuming he hasn't died from freezing in outer space). I mean, why not? The last TWO seasons on the 87 series made him the main antagonist and more major than Shredder. My only qualm about why they shouldn't is because that I can only imagine it as another alien invasion arc, and we've had way too many of those already. Planning a fifth season doesn't mean that that you'll keep reusing the same villains again as the major part of the season. The beginning of this season had almost nothing to do Shredder or the Kraang. I'm personally hoping for either Sh'Okanabo, Drako, or the Ultimate Ninja as the next big bad.

I'm kind of hoping Shredder dies in this, and Ch'rell (in disguise) comes in to take his place pretending to be him for a little while.
