I love to have more serious Mikey episodes too, but as he's a young kids favorite character, I can't see it happening.

Completely forgot about that one! Then again, it did felt rushed.
Mikey can't have serious episodes? False. Look at some of the other episodes from the seasons:
Wrath of Tiger Claw, The Manhattan Project, Parastica (even if that episode I didn't fully like), debatable on
Attack of the Mega Shredder!, etc. You know what they've got in common? (well, first two examples weren't centered on him, but regardless) Rather serious episodes with a serious Mikey; even with his goofy moments from those episodes in terms of dialogue, he makes up for it with a supporting and loving fashion. He motivates his family, shows immense creativity, he's practically the little kid who keeps trucking and makes us smile.
Write him good, Mikey shines. Write him wrong, you get stuff like
The Croaking. It's frustrating, Raph shouldn't always be reduced to anger, Leo shouldn't be primarily the guy taking the heavy hits all the time,
Mikey shouldn't 90% of the time be goofy.

Ah, fair enough, sorry it wasn't too specific. I agree either way.
(Will watch the episode later on)
