With a darker tone than its 1980s predecessor, this animated series doesn't stray far from the beloved comic books. Co-creator Peter Laird brings Leonardo, Raphael, Michelangelo, and Donatello back to the screen, showing how the crime-fighting foursome grows from rookies to martial arts masters. With the help of Master Splinter, the turtles face both the evil Shredder and a powerful craving for pizza. This release includes 12 episodes of the 2000s-era TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES series.
