So Glad I Gave This a Fair Chance

[ShelleyQuick]

I don't have children so I didn't really start watching it. After seeing a few clips on Youtube, gifs, and the Wormquake episode, I decided to watch as many as I could on demand. The more I watched, the more I liked it. These Nick Turtles are adorable! I have to admit, it was little odd hearing Raphael's voice come out of Donatello's mouth at first, but, Rob Paulsen is an amazing voice actor and I quickly got over it. Donnie always has been, and always will be my favorite turtle.

Glad to hear it! :thumbsup: Most people I've talked to who don't like it say they haven't seen it. They just aren't used to seeing 3D versions of the Turtles and I guess that's understandable. I was skeptical too at first but, like you said, enjoyed it more as I continued to watch it more. But I wasn't around for the original show's run, so this was my first time hearing Rob Paulsen voice one of the Turtles. He's great, I agree.

Also, you mentioned the Wormquake episode. Everyone seems to love that one especially.

Yeah, this series is what brought me back to TMNT early last year after putting it away many years ago. Giving one episode a chance was all it took and I got to work catching up on the rest I hadn't seen.

There is so much this series is doing right, I appreciate that this one is embracing every aspect of what it could try to be, being goofy sometimes and serious at other times, rather than trying to be only one or the other like the prior two series. Epic one minute then adorable the next. :tlove:

This show actually brought me in to begin with!

Shell yeah! Always happy to see another skeptic hop on the hype train. It really is an amazing 'toon!

I guess every series has its faults. :trazz:

I watched 3 episodes on demand before I went to work this morning. It was like being 7 all over again, and that's a great feeling. I really love this version of Master Splinter, he's awesome in every kind of way.

Welcome aboard! :tcool: I had my doubts with the show, being CGI and all. But once I finished the first episode I was hooked.

[CyberCubed]

Watch the 4kids series too if you haven't already, most of it is great.

[BubblyShell22]

Awesome to hear you like it, too, SQ. I have to admit I was leery of it at first, but once I watched that first episode I was hooked on the spot. I can't get enough of it and look forward to what they'll be doing next.

[ObiWanFan4life]

Good to hear. Welcome aboard :D

[kolaida]

I was wary of it to at first, but I've always liked the Turtles is I always give everything a chance and I have been pretty thrilled with this series! Welcome! :D

This is an accurate paragraph of my experience with the show as well.
At first I was leery because the voices sounded SO much different than what I was used to, but it grew on me really fast and I can't imagine any other voices for these turtles. The 3D was weird too, but I actually liked it immediately!

I enjoy this version of Splinter too. And totally agree with the show making adults feel young again. This is one amazing series alright.

Count me in as someone who has changed their opinion on the show as well. When the pictures were first released and the theme song came out in 2012 I believe, I was very much not interested in the show. I caught a couple episodes here and there and it just didn't seem like it was going to be for me.

I've seen the merchandise every where so with all the recent TMNT stuff lately, I decided to give the first season a chance and my brother and I have been watching them all. We're very much into it now! Sure, there are things that completely irk us (Mikey's stupidity, Karai and April at times) but we're getting very much immersed in the world the show is creating for us. We've only got about three or four episodes left of season one to go before we catch up and start binge watching the second season.

We've certainly come around!

The new TMNT movie resparked my interest. My husband and I decided to have a Ninja Turtle marathon then I drug him to the theatre 3 times:P Anyway I was watching the old cartoon on youtube and saw little clips from the Nick Toon, watched one episode and that was it! Competely hooked, it's my new favorite thing, if I ever do have to children, there's going to be LOTS of Ninja Turtles everywhere around them!

My better half had seen the first four TMNT movies, but she really got hooked when she saw Rise of The Turtles for the first time. Seems like the new show is creating a lot of new fans. Very cool.

I never doubted the show. I knew it would be good once I saw the first clip.
