Nickelodeon: "they want to focus on the '80s toon Turtles"

It's a sad fact but the majority of casual TMNT fans started with the 80s toon and have absolutely NO idea that it was originally a bloody, black & white comic book. What they recall is the humor, slapstick tone that the 80s toon brought. Even I feel that 2k3 was the superior show, the 80s toon is clearly the most popular aka most profitable. I hope they can find some kind of medium between the seriousness of the comic book and the zanyiness of the old toon. AKA as long as the Shredder isn't a complete moron but is not a freakin' Terminator, I'll be happy. (Trust me, Ch'rell pretty much was unstoppable up until the very end.)
