Do we only enjoy the show because we're already TMNT fans?

Don't get me wrong, I think this show is awesome...and not just because I already love TMNT. The writing, the humor, the action, everything is just great..so anyway, here's the reason I made this thread. One day I was watching a rant on some of Nickelodeon's current shows on Youtube (I came across it while searching for people's reactions on the new show) and the guy in the video basically just blew TMNT to the side as a stupid and uninteresting show. Now I know what you're gonna say.."It's just his opinion, not everyone will like the show.." but after watching that, almost all the videos that did give positive reviews of the show were by TMNT fans..so I'm not trying to say anything like "Everyone should like the show" or "whoever doesn't watch this show is stupid"...what I'm asking is if we only enjoy the show because we're already fans of the franchise. Like, if TMNT never existed, and then this show came on, would we even like it? Maybe I'm just over analyzing this, but I want to hear your opinions.
