Just felt this needed to be known......

OK, this is new to me...I'm new to this site! ah! But I just thought that this is something that if anyone thought about they would know it for sure but no one ever really says it....

I have had people ask me before, "Why do you like TMNT?" they say it is a kids show, or that it is an old show that our grandparents would have watched...I have never been able to give a good answer to this question really, at least none that they would accept. I got to thinking about it the other day and I asked myself, "Why DO I like the TMNT?" It took me a while to come up with a good answer for it but here it is:

I don't know for sure why I like it, all I know is that I do like it. Why does anyone like anything? I like TMNT because I just do....(Ok I guess I'm not making any sense yet...) I suppose originally, it was directed toward children but, as it grew more popular, it kinda became directed to all ages. It's like Charlie Brown almost, (OK probably not the best example but it's all I could come up with!) Charlie Brown was supposed to be for kids but parents started to get interested, and now it is for the whole family. TMNT, started out for kids and I suppose one reason why adults like it now is because /They watched it as a kid and they don't like to let go of those childhood fun times. And now TMNT is more for older age groups. Because now it is a bit more gory and detailed. and the characters, (i.e. The villains) are not just funny people in the show who always fail in their plans to stop the turtles and take over the world. Now they are winning a battle every now and again, and they are defintly not as amusing. The turtles are just as much fun but now they have bigger problems to face and bigger, badder "bad guys."

Man! I just wanted to get that out in the open.....I had a better "speech" in mind but when I strted to type I completely forgot everything I meant to say! If I hadn't, then I would have had a stronger point to this whole post!!! grrrrr!!!! Curse my inability to remember everything I felt had a meaning to what I had to say!!!!
If anyone else has point in this matter that they would like to put out in the open for others to know...thats what this is for! Have a good one!!!
