The first and so far only live-action TV series starring the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, produced by Saban Entertainment. It only lasted a single season of 26 episodes, from September 12, 1997 to March 20, 1998. While supposedly taking place after the 1987 cartoon series, in reality, it follows the live-action trilogy by New Line Cinema. Confused yet?The series begins with some familiarity: The four iconic anthropomorphic reptiles do battle with the Foot Clan and its leader, the Shredder. The turtles' master, Splinter still aids his sons with advice, and Leonardo and Raphael bicker amongst themselves. Suddenly, Splinter's spirit is rat-napped by an army of dragon warriors called the Rank. Led by their ill-tempered dictator, the Dragon Lord, the Rank ruled the world before they were banished to the Realm of Dreams by a mystic mirror. Splinter's friend, Chung I, a Shinobi master from China, was killed by the Rank, but not before telling his apprentice Mei Pieh Chi of her origins.Turns out Mei Pieh Chi is really a pet turtle from Chinatown in New York who was covered in mutagen and became an anthropomorphic, 5 foot tall, talking turtle. Mei returns to New York, meets the other four turtles, uses her Shinobi magic to Mind Rape the Shredder right off the bat, effectively leaving the Foot without a leader, and rescues Splinter's spirit. Unfortunately, she accidentally helps the Rank escape, who take up the mantle as the new major threat to the turtles. Mei joins the four brothers and is given the nickname Venus de Milo.The show ended up in Disney's hands when they bought Saban Entertainment, but Saban Brands later got the show back, along with the other Toei collaborations (Power Rangers, VR Troopers, Beetleborgs, and Masked Rider), and in turn went to Hasbro when they bought Saban Brands. Meanwhile, the franchise itself is currently owned by Nickelodeon. The show was on Netflix for a while, and in Shout! Factory released the series on DVD in 2012. Prior to that, the series had previously seen a Region 2 DVD release, although in a heavily edited form (and under the "Hero Turtles" banner, as the word "Ninja" was a no-no in the UKnote The rest of Europe has to follow on this, as it would be very costly to keep one name in a single region and a different one in the rest of Europeat the time). It also got back on the airwaves in 2013 via The Hub as that network was partly owned by Hasbro at the time until it rebranded to Discovery Family.For more details on the TMNT franchise in general, visit the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles page.

Artistic License – Linguistics: In this show, the word "shinobi" is treated as being a kind of magician, with Venus being trained to use shinobi magic and having no experience in ninjutsu. Not only is "shinobi" a synonym for "ninja" in real life, but it also specifically means a male ninja. | |

Right Behind Me | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_170128e9 | comment |
Right Behind Me: Zig-zagged in "Truce or Consequences". Wick calls Michelangelo during his radio show Sewer Hour as part of a plan by the Dragon Lord to lure Mikey into a trap. To make it sound convincing that Wick is on Michelangelo's side, he makes several insults directed at the Dragon Lord, who turns out to be standing behind Wick when the call ends. Dragon Lord isn't at all happy about Wick insulting him, but Wick saves his skin by explaining that he had to make it sound convincing. Wick later clarifies to Michelangelo that while he and the Rank legitimately do like his radio show, their leader still wants to eat him. | |

Aborted Arc | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: There are some plot threads that ended up unresolved because of the show's cancellation. Early episodes had the Turtles trying to find a way to reimprison the Dragon Lord and his army in the enchanted mirror they escaped from, but this was eventually forgotten. "Enemy of My Enemy" ends with the implication of Oroku Saki becoming the Shredder again and re-forming the Foot Clan, but nothing came of it. "The Good Dragon" suggested that there were many other good dragons still in the enchanted mirror and that they would one day emerge to overthrow their evil master. Vam-Mi's two minions decide to stay in New York after she's turned to dust, and they make a point of keeping her remains, but they never appear in any other episodes. Despite it being featured commonly in the first couple of episodes, the latter half of the series largely drops the idea of the turtles trying to win the affections of Venus, and she's treated more or less like any other turtle. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: Several to the 1987 cartoon: The turtles wear buckles with their initials on them as well as bands on their arms and legs matching the colors of their bandannas, their taste for weird pizza toppings, and they ride in a van with a license plate that reads "TRTL PWR."(Turtle Power!) Some of the dance moves of the turtles in the intro and the outro are recreations of their dance moves from the intro of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles III. In the first episode, Leo and Raph are introduced, as they argue, only by their shadows on the walls, similar to how Leo, Mike and Don were introduced in the first live-action movie. | |

Even Evil Has Standards | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: Dr. Quease tries to invoke this by pointing out his method of destroying his nearly robotic clones of the Turtles is painless. Naturally, the Turtles disagree. In "The Good Dragon" episode after The Rank Lieutenant informs The Dragon Lord that a Rank Foot Soldier stopped him from killing Venus; The Dragon Lord specifically reminds him to be sure of his accusation because " A fellow brother dragon's life is in your claws." In the episode "King Wick" after Wick takes over and orders The Rank Foot Soldiers to call Dragon Lord a Weenie. The Rank Lieutenant refuses to do so. He changes his tune after Wick zaps him with eye laser beams. In The 4 Part Episode series "Unchain My Heart" The Vampire Vam Mi goes on a bender at a Blood Bank. She steals and drinks at least a dozen Cold Plasma Packs; and her minions chastise her for doing so saying it's not dignified and vampires should hunt and kill their food. | |

Unrelated in the Adaptation: While there was rarely a distinction on whether the Turtles were brothers by blood relation or by adoption, this series notably made it so that none of them were related by blood so that the male Turtles could have Ship Tease with Venus de Milo and have Venus established as mutating with the other four before being separated from them without raising incestuous implications. | |

Stupid Sacrifice | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_442a6995 | comment |
Stupid Sacrifice: What happens to the random Rank Foot Soldier who saves Venus from a Cruel and Unusual Death at the hands of The Rank Lieutenant is supposed to be extremely dramatic. He willingly gives himself up to The Dragon Lord and walks back into the enchanted mirror that had imprisoned The Rank for centuries. But he really didn't have to do that. It was a pretty dumb thing to do. He does try to justify it by saying he'll be back with an army of good dragons to fight Dragon Lord the next time they encounter each other, however. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The first two episodes downplay the more cartoonish aspects the show would exhibit not long after, with just as many scenes played straight as there are comedic moments. The first two episodes similarly tone down the over the top sound effects during the fight scenes, this is dropped almost instantly afterwards. "East Meets West" and "The Staff of Bu-Ki" shows Donatello being supportive, or at least not as opposed, towards Venus's magic. He does not exhibit this trait later on, "The Enemy of My Enemy" in particular making him downright hostile towards it. | |

The Farmer and the Viper: In "Enemy of My Enemy", Splinter finds that the Shredder has become a vagabond since his defeat in the series premiere. Against the Turtles' wishes, Splinter takes Oroku Saki in and tries to rehabilitate his old enemy. By the episode's end, the Shredder isn't the least bit grateful that the Turtles begrudgingly helped him out and presumably gets started on preparing his next attempt at defeating them. | |

Broad Strokes | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_547196be | comment |
Broad Strokes: Certain visual cues such as Splinter missing an ear and the Turtles living in an abandoned subway station seems to imply that the series takes place after the live-action films by New Line Cinema (the subway set is even recycled from those films), but certain details (such as the Shredder still being alive, Michelangelo using tonfa instead of nunchucks, and April O'Neil and Casey Jones seeming to not even exist) suggest that the films' events may have happened differently. | |

Inconsistent Dub | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_5b607875 | comment |
Inconsistent Dub: This actually happens a few times throughout the show's UK release, as occasionally certain things that usually get cut out (like Mikey or Don yelling "Shotgun!" during the Stock Footage) are left in. For instance, when "King Wick" was broadcast in the UK, the episode was edited to cut most scenes of Wick calling Dragon Lord "Weenie". However, at least one instance of "Weenie" was accidentally left in. | |

Donatello spends the rest of the episode in Quease's lab, only avoiding capture due to the mad doctor's incompetence with his traps. It's only when he's being drug away by the other turtles as he narrowly escapes yet another capture attempt that Donatello understands he's got it all wrong. | |

Our Vampires Are Different: The four-part episode "Unchain My Heart" dealt with the Turtles having to contend with a vampire named Vam-Mi who was out to restore her heart so she can fully recover, aided by her two childlike servants Bing and Chi-Chu. They seem to be based on the Chinese mythos with some elements of the American interpretation of vampires thrown in (afraid of sunlight, can turn into bats, etc). | |

Canon Discontinuity: TMNT, which itself is considered by many involved to be a tenuous continuation of the live-action films, doesn't reference this series, not even subtly, and there's enough differences in continuity to make the two incompatible.

Men Are Generic, Women Are Special | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_abc5ba2f | comment |
Men Are Generic, Women Are Special: In "The Good Dragon", Venus is almost killed by The Rank Lieutenant. She's only saved when a turn coat Rank Foot Soldier comes out of nowhere and tosses The Lieutenant aside. He even asked her if she was injured before Raphael dropkicks him. Later Venus seeks him out to thank him and get an explanation for why he helped her. He tries brushing her off by rudely telling her to go away before explaining that thousands of years ago all of The Rank except for The Dragon Lord were good and lived in harmony with humans. Raphael comes in and starts fighting with the former Rank Foot Soldier who then decides to kidnap Raphael by tossing him in a dumpster and hitching it to his motorcycle. Later while he's holding Raph hostage he even verbally states that he plans to kill Raphael and beg to be accepted back into The Ranks of The Rank. It's quite likely that the only motivation this Rank Foot Solider had for saving Venus and then deserting The Rank is the fact that she's a girl. | |

Shout-Out: In the "Unchain My Heart" episodes, the villain Simon Bonesteel reveals that he has hunted vampires in addition to endangered animals. A vampire hunter named Simon? Now, why does that ring a bell? In "Like Brothers", one of the sets of weapons Leo and Raph use during their duel are Lightsabers. This exchange in the Five-Episode Pilot: | |

My Species Doth Protest Too Much | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_c8bea4ec | comment |
My Species Doth Protest Too Much: The episode "The Good Dragon" featured a member of the Rank who was benevolent. In the end, the Dragon Lord attempts to imprison him in the enchanted mirror, but the soldier does it himself, but not before the good dragon makes a vow to find other dragons like him to amass a rebellion against the Dragon Lord. Like many other plot threads, this never got resolved. | |

Killed Off for Real | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_cda501da | comment |
Killed Off for Real: Chung I is permanently killed off via Death by Origin Story. Arc Villain Vam-Mi stands out as being the only villain on the show to be permanently defeated, as she turned to ash when the Turtles prevented her from restoring her heart in time. Since her minions made a point of keeping her remains, it's possible she was intended to be revived in the future if there had been more than one season. | |

ToiletHumor | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_d442f9d1 | comment |
Toilet Humor: Some of the sound effects are rather disgusting belching and wet snot effects. "East Meets West, Part 1" has Splinter tell Andre that he has to go, Andre interprets this as Splinter needing to use the bathroom and tells him to use a bush as he leaves. "King Wick" has Dragon Lord give Wick his own personalized throne — an actual toilet ripped out of a bathroom. Wick spends a fair amount of screentime both on and in it and even comments on how it fits him. | |

Lie Detector | |
| Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation / int_e8b49369 | comment |
Lie Detector: Donatello once invented a lie detector in the episode "Truce or Consequences". He used it to see if their enemy, Wick, was serious about defecting. However, Wick was also gushing about Michaelangelo's radio show at the same time he said he wanted to defect, so the lie detector read his statement as true, causing the Turtles to walk into a trap. It didn't help that Wick genuinely was a fan of the radio show to the annoyance of Dragon Lord. | |

She was only saved because a turn coat Rank Foot Soldier stepped in and tossed The Lieutenant aside | |
