The word "ninja" had to be dropped from the title and changed to "hero" before the original 80s show could even be aired in the UK,because "ninja" was deemed too violent!!! i appreciate your concerns and you are obviously a MASSIVE TMNT fan,but as i stated before toys and the shows based off/around them are intended for kids,and us adults have to accept that,and make the compromise. Give the new show a chance,you may be surprised,and if not at least (hopefully) welcome a whole new generation of TMNT fans into the fold,and introduce them to the original versions you cherish.

You and I must live in two different worlds, because I don't agree with you at all; I have seen a completely different side of this fandom that is more diverse and far more intuitive to the modern needs of TMNT fans, and they want dark-gritty ninja action. This crap, this kiddie-crap, is only going to bring the series down; I can only hope the movie will help the series (which is supposed to be dark, gritty, and very different from this shows concept in every way. Why would they even bother to make a TMNT film like that if they didn't think it would succeed?). And if the parents were against the modern TV series of TMNT, the 2k3 series would have been shut down waaaaay back.

We'll see what happens, but this is new reboot for the TMNT TV series is a joke.

Somebody with a better mindset, gut instincts, and perspective needs to take charge- Nick isn't the place to go.

And BTW, do you honestly think that this is in any way a compromise? 2k3, was a compromise, this isn't a compromise at all.
