O hai! So, I'm an old fan of TMNT from back in the 80s, when I was a little kid. I lived to watch the show on Saturday mornings while eating the cereal, play the TMNT games at Chuck E. Cheese's (then called Showbiz Pizza), and read the comic books while eating TMNT fruit snacks. My mom thought girls should stick to Barbies and horses, so I only got TMNT during weekends with my dad, but those were some badass weekends.

I'd been avoiding the franchise lately because not all the stuff that's come out since has been so good, and I preferred to simply preserve my childhood memories. However, I randomly started watching the new Nick series a couple of weeks ago, and I think it's amazing - the script is really funny and clever, and it has just enough anime style to look slick without being obnoxious. I'm really glad that they've made a good reboot and that it's licensed to go on for a couple of years, unlike what happened to the last kid's show I enjoyed.

Looking forward to getting both my nostalgia and my fangirl on here!
