I might be the only one who shares this view, but I think...
 

... The old cartoon was much better than the new one.

The old-school turtles were quick-witted and clever, and while the action was sterile enough to permit being on Saturday mornings, it was not cheesy in any way.

However, for some reason the creators of the new series on FoX BoX took it upon themselves to turn it in a much darker, animelike direction and what little humour there is is obviously strained, or at least seems so to me.
Perhaps it stems from early childhood memories, but I would still much rather see the old turtles than the new.
Anyone agree?

The old turtles were fun but I love the new ones :P

Before this is locked.... I will say that it is simply a matter of opinion. Nobody is right or wrong on what their tastes are. There are definitely things about the old toon that are missed, but there are 196 episodes of that series that you can watch (if you have them, since they're not played on tv). I think the new series is awesome and funny, but the humor is much different than the old show.
In short, both shows have good and bad points, and it's not really worth comparing them, because opinions and debates happen. Me, I have apples and oranges in my refrigerator and enjoy them equally.

I can't really bash the old show. It was eprfect for it's time, and back then, I never missed an episode. I still like the show from a nostalgic point of view.

I don't think anyone's going to bash the 1967 Spider-Man series because the animation was poor. It was 67, it's not like they could do any better. Insulting the old show because it was more kid-friendly than the new show is pointless.

However, now that I'm much much older, I find the new show to be better because it appeals to a mature audience.

The old toon was fine I like it. Everyone has opinions and such and I respect anyones in most cases. On this matter I take the side of the new show. Its more adult. The old toon was animated horribly and was way to goofy. Plus the turtles were outside in the day light WAYYY to much. Their supposed to be hiding in the shadows......

I myself don't care much for this recent series, probably because I never bother watching it.

The theme song of the classic is still addictive to me, though. Guess when the Turtles are your favorite thing as a kid some of the oldness will stick to you for life.

I was always more of the old one, as well. You're not alone in your opinion.

They're both equally good in their own ways...

the old show was a classic i mean come on it was teh first. it was perfect for its time. but now the new show is where its at. great writing. great animation. i love both but the new turtles just has something more about it that makes me like it more and i think its how mature the show really is compared to the old one or any other cartoon out there besides animes. the new turtles has done more then the old one could ever dream of. my only complaint so far is the theme. it would of been so much coller if they would of some how kept the old theme or made like a remix/remade ver of it.

The old Theme song is the best I hate the new one.....
Nice sig Verminator is the best futureistic evil cat scientist to ever team up with Shredder and Armaggon
