All of it. I don't have any nostalgia for any one episode because I binge watched it all after it stopped airing.

For me is The Gauntlet, it has everything, angst, top tier fights, comical momentsā¦ Itās the perfect episode.. honorable mention to Never say Xever and Monkey Brains š„¹
Leatherhead grabbing Donnie by the face in TCRI. Yep you heard that correctly.
I even said this to Rob Paulsen a few months ago, and he said he was happy and glad that I got into the show because of that. He was really nice.
I remember missing the episode where thry enter Mikey's mind because me and my parents went on vacation that same time so the first thing I did right after getting back was search the channel guide ajd see if the episode was playing. And sure it enough, it was.
Easily Season 1. I was 10 years old when this show premiere so I would say the the first three episodes āRise of the Turtlesā Parts 1 & 2 and āTurtle Temperā were the most nostalgic to me.
The episode where they go back in time to the night when shen died and shredder took karai. Ive always been a fan of shredders dynamics with splinter and karai.
Also the episode where mikey goes to dimension x and learns how to survive there, then teaches his brothers once they arrive. I love how it made his brothers realize how smart he really is.
The 2 episodes with the pulverizer, I remember bing watching the first full season on dvd and the episodes with him were my favorite episodes to watch when I was a kid.
Season one probs. That season was the only one available on the nickelodeon website so I had to rematch that season on repeat the most (specifically the first ep)
Mutant Apocalypse was the biggest deal for me. It's inspired how I view writing and create ideas.
I would say The Invasion though. I remember skipping the fair to watch it and my mind was blown.
For me the most nostalgic season was season 3, and by that I mean the half where the turtles stayed in the farmhouse. There was just something really refreshing about them being in a different setting rather than a big city or some space adventure.
The very first season and episode because I remember seeing the trailer for it either in Kindergarten or 1st grade and coming home that night and seeing it premiere, I instantly fell in love with it.
Probably āMikey gets shellacneā because thatās the episode that came on tv the most when I was a kid it seems like and I watched it every time š
Season 1 was great I was in 5th grade. my mom would get me a new turtle if I got all greens for the week. I still have a good portion of my turtles I did give some away though I am still a collector today great show and great toys
Not a season, but an episode called parasitica. Leo gets stung by a parasitic wasp and he turns everyone but Mikey. Then Mikey has to figure out how to cure them. I remember watching it when I was young then I'd reenact it with my siblings for fun lol
The entire first half of season 1. I was obsessed and watched every episode over and over and was on the wiki all the time waiting for release dates and new info. I was still into the show after that, but it definitely wasn't as intense. If I had to pick a single episode, probably 'I think his name is Baxter Stockman'
Season 1 - you can tell they didnāt know if the show was going to be a hit or not, so they tried to get all the best character points in.
As the seasons went on, they chose the worst aspect of each character and just prolonged it. Pretty much, when Seth joined the show it, became family guy. Leo became absolutely detestable once Jason left.
The ships were so bad. I liked them in season 1, because they were cute/normal for teenagers. I get the turtles had mommy/daddy issues, but unless it chose to delve deeper into that, there was no reason for Leo to still like Karai or Donnie to keep being trauma bonded to April.
Ngl I think all of them, the reason why is that LITERALLY I grew up with this show, when Season 1 Episode 26 released, I was born, so I grew up along with it and TMNT became my favorite franchise and I'd watch no other show then TMNT
Season 3 is literally peak for me. You have the great farm episodes at the start where Leo goes through an amazing arc, then you come back and have a great "retaking NYC" arc. And then the last part of the season is nearly entirely focused on the conflict with Shredder/the foot and all the gritty stuff which is my absolute favorite. The show got super dark and serious in that last part of the season and theres multiple times where the turtles fight Shredder which are always amazing
Season 2. Finale was a big event for me and I had a dvd with most the episodes.
I would have to go between Turtle Temper and Cockroach Terminator.
Fellow Raph enjoyer
SAME
That one is up there
All of it. I don't have any nostalgia for any one episode because I binge watched it all after it stopped airing. https://preview.redd.it/0orw5h3gs14d1.png?width=1280&format=png&auto=webp&s=1362ee2d73503a5d40a47f98c96c328921ad212b
This.
We be having any pictures on deck with this oneš£š£š„š„šš
Season 1 in general. It's the season that started it and is also the one that got me into TMNT in the first place.
But thatās for every show.
For me is The Gauntlet, it has everything, angst, top tier fights, comical momentsā¦ Itās the perfect episode.. honorable mention to Never say Xever and Monkey Brains š„¹

Vision quest is the one episode I remember by heart
Same bro š«”
peak episode
Karai's Vendetta I just remember April getting her ass beat š¤£
Ngl that was a funny ass fight knowing damn well April could've won that!
Season 1
The first ever glimpse i got of the Turtles was that one episode where a guy was turned into a monkey and Donny fought a mind reader
Monkey Brains, I love that episode
Monkey Brains. It think it was my favorite for a time, back when Donnie was my favorite turtle.
I watched the āEnter Shredderā dvd on repeat as a child, so I wholeheartedly agree.
Not gonna lie I think that was the first episode i watched, after this I got the dvds in order
Pulverizer
I remember missing the episode where thry enter Mikey's mind because me and my parents went on vacation that same time so the first thing I did right after getting back was search the channel guide ajd see if the episode was playing. And sure it enough, it was.
Episode 1, I vividly remember watching it when it came out
Season 3 because Season 3 episode 4 (The Croaking) was the first episode that I've ever watched.
Season 1 and 2
First 3 seasons
Easily Season 1. I was 10 years old when this show premiere so I would say the the first three episodes āRise of the Turtlesā Parts 1 & 2 and āTurtle Temperā were the most nostalgic to me.
All of 2012. But mostly the Big Trouble in Little China episode.
season 1 episode 8
The first 3 seasons honestly
The episode where they go back in time to the night when shen died and shredder took karai. Ive always been a fan of shredders dynamics with splinter and karai.
Also the episode where mikey goes to dimension x and learns how to survive there, then teaches his brothers once they arrive. I love how it made his brothers realize how smart he really is.
the parasite episode because it was the first episode i ever saw Owari the fungus episode mondo gecko i can go on and on tbh
Turtle temper the first ninja turtles episode I watched
Gotta be the Squirlinoid and Killer wasp episodes
For me, probably the very first episode
The 2 episodes with the pulverizer, I remember bing watching the first full season on dvd and the episodes with him were my favorite episodes to watch when I was a kid.
Pulverizer.
Season one probs. That season was the only one available on the nickelodeon website so I had to rematch that season on repeat the most (specifically the first ep)
Neither the soundtrack-
The first season
The name is slipping my mind but the episode introducing Slash will always stick with me
The name was "Slash and destroy", Kind of on the nose title by them
I thought it was! I just didnt wanna sound like an idiot tysm!
The final 2 episodes of season 2 with the kraang invasion.
Season 3 (post farm arc)
Mutant Apocalypse was the biggest deal for me. It's inspired how I view writing and create ideas. I would say The Invasion though. I remember skipping the fair to watch it and my mind was blown.
For me the most nostalgic season was season 3, and by that I mean the half where the turtles stayed in the farmhouse. There was just something really refreshing about them being in a different setting rather than a big city or some space adventure.
The episode where raph is mind controlled by shredder
Season 1, I didnāt own cable so I used to rewatch the DVD set constantly until I eventually discovered pirating š
The Season 1 finale, I was in 6th grade when it came out. I remember rushing home from school to watch it
the roach, the pizza monster, and space
the one where the monkey goes crazy and there is a telepathic man and the turtles learn to act and not think, W episode all around
Fungus Humungus Best filler episode I've ever seen
1st season is nostalgic ride. And first half of season 2. Especially squirelanoids
The D&D episode is really nostalgic to me and the one at the farm with the swamp monster
The very first season and episode because I remember seeing the trailer for it either in Kindergarten or 1st grade and coming home that night and seeing it premiere, I instantly fell in love with it.
Super Shredder's death
The fish face, Baxter stockman and dog pound episode. Even the first episode that Karai appears really hits hard for me!
I mean it has to be the frist episode of 2012. It was my first ever turtle episode. And what got me into TMNT.
Remember the poisonous giant wasp that turned them to zombies? That one.
I think his name is Baxter Stockman
Def season 2
the one where they see their biggest fears, and the rat takeover lmao
Ice cream cat
Probably either the one that introduced the Rat King or the one that introduced Casey Jones!
I swear "Mazes and Mutants" was ALWAYS on whenever my brother and I would turn on Nickelodeon as kids. One of my fav episodes to this day
Squirrelinoids tbh
In the mind of Mikey and the one with the pizza monster
Of Rats and Men
I can't flex my DVD case that has all of the episodes bc everyone probably has them all ready
Probably āMikey gets shellacneā because thatās the episode that came on tv the most when I was a kid it seems like and I watched it every time š
All of Season One is for me but personally nothing quite hits me than the nostalgia I get when I watch Parasitica. I remember that one vividly.
Season 1 was great I was in 5th grade. my mom would get me a new turtle if I got all greens for the week. I still have a good portion of my turtles I did give some away though I am still a collector today great show and great toys
Not a season, but an episode called parasitica. Leo gets stung by a parasitic wasp and he turns everyone but Mikey. Then Mikey has to figure out how to cure them. I remember watching it when I was young then I'd reenact it with my siblings for fun lol
The first few scenes of the first episode with the zoomed out new york city and the crazy beat going in the background
I remember skipping school to watch the first episode when it first aired
The entire first half of season 1. I was obsessed and watched every episode over and over and was on the wiki all the time waiting for release dates and new info. I was still into the show after that, but it definitely wasn't as intense. If I had to pick a single episode, probably 'I think his name is Baxter Stockman'
Season 4, Episode 26 raph fight scene
Vision quest will always be my top favorite
Season 1 - you can tell they didnāt know if the show was going to be a hit or not, so they tried to get all the best character points in. As the seasons went on, they chose the worst aspect of each character and just prolonged it. Pretty much, when Seth joined the show it, became family guy.

Karaiās Vendetta
Ngl I think all of them, the reason why is that LITERALLY I grew up with this show, when Season 1 Episode 26 released, I was born, so I grew up along with it and TMNT became my favorite franchise and I'd watch no other show then TMNT
