Why is this show so despised?

This whole argument about negative vs positive comments is funny to me that it actually bugs some fans. From the comments in this thread, everyone wants to defend the show and say the OP is wrong, but as some have pointed out already whenever something is different from what they are used to, people's usual initial reaction is negative.
With that being said, this cartoon is a kids cartoon, is it not? If a few negative comments from fans of the comics, 87 or 2k3 series represents the masses then the show would have been cancelled before it was even first aired. It is a kids show that from my own experience kids do enjoy. Just going down the toy aisle and you will see that it must be popular as the TMNT pegs are usually low or empty in my neck of the woods anyways. All other toy lines seem to be able to stay in stock compared. Based on ratings and toy sales, I wouldn't worry about nah sayers, as whenever something becomes popular, you ALWAYS get groups of haters and trolls trying to burst fans bubbles.
So, you have to chalk it up to the shows popularity, people that can't accept change, and negative people just being negative. I would worry if the ratings dropped and the main toy line started stagnating on the shelves. Until then, may this series be long and prosperous!
