Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a Paramount+ television series that takes place in the same universe as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem and serves as a bridge between that film and a sequel, which is in production. The cartoon series is in 2D animated and most of the cast from the film reprised their roles. The series launched on August 9, 2024.
Like Mutant Mayhem, the series is a co-production of Nickelodeon Animation Studios and Point Grey Pictures, with Christopher Yost and Alan Wan serving as executive-producers and showrunners.

Trivia[]
- This is the first animated series in the franchise's history to be set in the same continuity as a theatrical film.
- It is the first series since the 2003 TV series to use an original opening theme rather than a remix of the 1987 theme song.
- Like Mutant Mayhem, it is the second family-targeted production from Point Grey. It is also the first comic-book adapted animated series co-produced by them after the mature-oriented Invincible and the The Boys Presents: Diabolical miniseries.
