Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an American animated television series developed by Ant Ward and Andy Suriano for Nickelodeon.

The series stars the voices of Omar Benson Miller, Ben Schwartz, Brandon Mychal Smith, Josh Brener, Kat Graham, and Eric Bauza.

Raphael, Donatello, Leonardo and Michelangelo (calling themselves the Mad Dogs) are in their early teen years and the brothers go on new and exciting adventures.

They tap into their mystic ninja powers to learn to work together as a cohesive unit and become a team of heroes as they navigate the modern world and other hidden realms.

The brothers get a whole new look, new weapons, and new powers as they discover the hidden city beneath New York and find time for a slice of their favorite pizza.

In the first season, the turtle brothers, along with their friend, April O'Neil, meet an evil alchemist named Baron Draxum, and the dangerous Foot Clan.

They must collect pieces of an ancient dark armor called the Kuroi Yōroi to prevent the Foot and Draxum from resurrecting the Shredder, a demon once banished by Splinter's ancestors.

'Turtles' has been an incredibly important franchise for us since we reignited it five years ago, and we're excited for the new series to take the characters in a different direction with more humor, a younger and lighter feel, and all-new dimensions to explore".

"Turtle-dega Nights: The Ballad of Rat Man": Wanting to live with glory again, Splinter ropes Donnie and Mikey into modifying the Turtle Tank and entering it into a mutant demolition derby run by Big Mama.

"One Man's Junk": Donnie and Mikey try to recover a piece of the Dark Armor from Repo Mantis' scrap yard that he claimed.

Meanwhile, Raph and Leo get impatient and check out a bus where they accidentally release Repo Mantis' pet cat Mrs. Nubbins.

They find that it was stolen by Meat Sweats so that he can regain his human form and his hosting job on "Kondescending Kitchen" from a bound and gagged Guy Flambe.

Meanwhile, Splinter's plan to take the Turtles on a wilderness survival training backfires when Raph accidentally places the tank on lockdown for 24 hours.

When he makes his way to the park, he runs into the Purple Dragons who remove the restraining bolt from him and use him in their plans to win the drone races at the Thunder Dome hosted by Billionaire Guy Eccentric and obtain the Shadow Transmitter that would enable them to hack any system on the planet.

"Air Turtle": Leo gets his dream job as the mascot of the local professional basketball team called the New York Daves owned by Tim Dunkman.

Part 1: E-Turtle Sunshine of the Spotless Mind: With the Shredder back with the Foot Clan, Baron Draxum enables the Turtles to enter Splinter's subconscious memories to search for the means of vanquishing their demonic foe for good.

Part 2: Shreddy or Not: With her return from the Twilight Realm, Karai proceeds to teach the Turtles about a mystical technique that would link them to the spirits of their Hamato ancestors, thus giving them the power to defeat their enemy.

In Karai's stead, Shredder prepares to drain Splinter's life essence to make him fully invincible, but he needs a rare substance called Empyrean for the ritual.

[65] Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie follows Leonardo forced to lead his brothers Raph, Donnie, and Mikey against alien invaders known as the Krang.

During the months leading up to the series' launch, Viacom and Nintendo collaborated to market Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles via a special limited-time online multiplayer event for the 2017 video game Splatoon 2, in which Inklings can participate in a Splatfest tournament, battling over which of the four brothers is the best.
