The theme was eh but the show was awesome as much as I love the original series it strayed a bit too far from the original concept and relied too much on a catchy theme song but 2k3 wentback to basics and proved once again that kids shows dont need to be dumbed down to succeed
@yokochanni i was born in the 90's and i like the 90's ninja turtles i think the song was better too the other kid said the 2003 series and up was better
I don't know anything about this 2003 series, but objectively speaking this theme tune is dreadful compared to the 80s one. But then the 80s cartoon itself was dreadful.
The two were different to be sure. This one was more faithful to the original comics in it's dark style and more action-oriented pacing while the 1987 series (which I grew up with) was more along the lines of the other '80s Saturday morning cartoons. Corny jokes with a totally awesome theme song!
I miss them!!!!!!! COWABUNGA! That word is engraved in my head and I can't get it out. I even have TMNT action figures. :3 It's pretty awesome if you ask me
Ehhhhhh, this was alright, but I have to agree with the comments that say the 1987 version was better. It was just more fun, and not everything has to be so damn serious all the time.
I never really watched this version of the show, and the theme song doesn't do it for me, but that WATCH OUT FOR SHREDDER part at 0:50 has stuck in my head for years.
This show lasted my whole childhood. It lasted when TV was good, when it went bad and when it was done. And just when we needed this show the most, it abandoned us.
@kibbsmycat23 i hope know the kids of 2003 still had it really good with the 2003 version sure i admit it's not the 1987 turtles of course but the 03 version still kicked ass and anyways newer generations should get new shows they will look back and find nostalgic while you and me find their shows a piece of shit the only bad things about the 03 version was the fuckin fast forward shit. now that was bad
@DKINGOFME45 Nope Fast Forward is not Peice of Shit , if you dont Like it then dont watch it , if you are True TMNT Fan then you wont Say somthing like it. so i say Fast Forward FTW , i dont want any Problems.!
@tmntuploader: Not every Turtles fan has to like EVERY incarnation, you tool. Fast Foward BASTARDIZED the 2k Turtles just like the later seasons of the 80s show RUINED the 1987 Turtles. Hence why Turtles Forever merged BOTH in order to appease BOTH generations, BEFORE Mirage Comics sold out to Viacom.
@TherealRNO So you call me Fool or Tool , ha But Lord forgive you for that word, And like i Said if you dont like it , then go watch your Kidy friendly show the 80s ! , so i can Call your are a FOOL , if you called me that.
the 80s NEVER had , Rooftops and where the Foot ninjas Peoples NOT ROBOTS , like i said 80s is not Followed by comics at all and the Shredder of the 80s is nothing like a Rabbit he is not evil and he dont kill peoples at all. so STFU and i dont want bad comments.
@kibbsmycat23 well i think the new one is better cuz its darker and more mature. plus i like this theme better. go to some vids of the 2005 tmnt theme and if you find the right one you'll see what i mean. wish i had a link but whatever
@kibbsmycat23 People who really want to know who the Ninja Turtles are, should read the comic-books. That's where it all started. The '03 cartoon is way closer to the Original Turtles than any of the old movies and the old cartoon are. TMNT are badass fighters, and not some wacky clowns. They should be serious.
these are my turtles i was brought up on these but when i watched the 80's version it was too kidy not hating i guess it depends on what turtles u was brought up on
Well, you are not an adult that had a childhood with THESE turtles, I am not an adult, but, I loved to watch them whenever i found an episode, and I really don't like the new turtles. Please, for sake, don't put hate comments if you don't know the facts.
@jkremis1423 It is the ninja-turtles theme. Just not the 80's ninja turtles. This song fits the '03 series way better, as that was a serious, normal show and the 80's turtles was not serious at all and there was no good action at all.
@KabutoOfTheSound6 You wouldn't know how awesome the 80's turtles were unless you were a kid then. Im 23 now and grew up with it, I love both but the first series to me will forever be my fav.
Thanks for uploading this. It's hard to find this version of the theme on the site anymore. (Mostly I hear the 2003 2nd version or the 2008 theme), but this one was ALWAYS my favorite. Thanks alot.
