Am I the only person who doesn't really like the OT any more?

The OT is what got me into turtles as a kid. I saw it first and got the toys and the first 2 movies. I love the mirage comics now and the first move, second is decent. But rewatching the OT, I found it pretty painful to watch. All the episodes are pretty predictable, the turtles hardly ever use their weapons, shredder is incompetent. I don't really enjoy but a few episodes of it any more (mainly the first 5 ep mini series.) Anyone else like this? To me the turtles are the mirage comics and the OT is a bastardization of the comics. I like the 2k3 cartoon a lot more, but all the "shell" puns are unbearable and mikey is annoying. The mirage comics are awesome though and some of the archie ones are cool. I really like the toys (neca and playmates too) but the OT just seems like it has aged poorly to me.
