1987 is my personal favorite. Of course, I might be biased since that was during my childhood. :)

Most people can't go back to the 1987 version. As the series goes on, the writing gets more flawed, dumb, and way too kid friendly.

I think the best TMNT is the 2003 series. It had a similar tone to Batman: TAS and it manages to adapt the storylines from the comics.
