The amount of fighting skills and enemies the 2k3 and Nick Turtles faced were far more dangerous than anything in the original cartoon.

I have to agree with Mr. Cubed. There were times in Red Sky (and I assume before) where all of Raph's action consisted of just him throwing his sais. Like, that's all he did. Then there was that Mona Lisa ep where all they did was run from the monsters when you figure Raph the ninja turtle should at least put up a fight.
There was an ep where Shredder had em surrounded by tons of Foot Soldiers and they mostly did 'well, it was nice knowin ya guys' jokes when you expect the 4 of them to be able to ckean house.
I would have loved a 4th wall joke where the 80s turtles realize they are no longer limited by 80s budget animation and do all sorts of sweet ninja moves and even have Mikey say 'Cowabunga, I can use my chucks again!'
