Now I've been listening how much you guys hate this episode. Would it be a crime to say I love it?

Site reasons or you're getting fitted for an orange jumpsuit.

EDIT: I guess I should state why I HATE it...
Being a Turtle endows the Turtles with special ninja powers? Why did they even train? If the powers are part of the turtle mutation, why bother? Ninja abilities are learned, not a superpower you lose when you turn from a Turtle to a human. Though I could see him being less durable, or more klutzy because he isn't used to moving in a human body.

At least the series was consistent. Napoleon's cloths came back to normal and ripped again in Napoleon Bonafrog: Colossus of the Swamps and then there's Carter....

I personally like that episode, but it's not a favorite or anything.

ok first off. Michelangelo is my favorite character. next like you said it shows that he wishes to be a normal teenager and do the same things we do. But I do agree with you that his ninja and skateboarding skills should not of disappeared once he became human because he had years of training in both.

Exactly... turning human shouldn't have resulted in Mike losing his ninja or skateboard abilities... Plus... out of all the possible appearance Mike could have taken up... how did the Turtles know what he'd look like? They ran right into a kid that looked just like human-Mike and were like 'look, it's Michealangelo as a human teenager'.

I have to admit the older I get the less I like this episode, however it did inspire me to create my Jephael character.

I guess my question to you would be: on what level do you love it? Do you love being nostalgic over the silly cheesiness of it? Or do you sit there and truly think that it's one of the greatest animated episodes ever created in television history?
