I was skeptical when I heard about it, especially when I saw the first teaser trailer that replaced Donatello's and Michaelangelo's weapons with retractable bladed versions -- no reason for that. I don't know if they struck the idea completely, but they aren't in this new trailer. If they do stick with the weapons, I'll give them a chance.
The show looks like it's going to be pretty cool, though. I was actually really surprised to see the video on youtube had more dislikes than likes, but I can't help but think that's because of nostalgia. The Turtles are pretty much sacred to me, too, but there's more to them than just the '80s cartoon.

I'll be honest if I was to put together a ranking of all the TMNT stuff that there is, the 80s cartoon would PROBABLY be in the bottom half. I mean there were definitely worse things but when I think "TMNT are so great" the 80s cartoon doesn't factor into it at all.

It's too bad Bay is going to ruin TMNT into oblivion.
That's if his movie ever gets launched!

Th Bay thing was delayed/cancelled, it's no longer greenlit to go soon and they're going back to the drawing board, thank goodness.
As for this cartoon, does look cute, and I'm glad turtles are gonna be introduced to another generation. Doesn't look like something I'd need to check out, but I do love the comics still doing bidness.
