Yeah.. that's what I was thinking too!

You too?  I came on when Don on the Shell Cycle looking ofr a
professor.  That was a different thing that he was riding the bike too.
 So it's not just all for Raph then!  ;p

I really enjoyed that too.  One thing I didn't like in the old toon,
was that they all seemed to all and react in the same way to stuff.
Most of the time.  Or that they pretty much saved all the jokes for
Raph. 

But in this new show, they all stand out more with their own quirks. 
Or that they all share a sense of humor.  Of course, Mike was
originally the funny boy of the bunch, so it never bothered me that
he's cracking more jokes that Raph or any of the others.  But Raph does
bounce off his humor with the comparible sort of sarvcasm he used in
the old toon.

Aside from Mike's unexpected "girly scream", I was also ROFTL when he
did that funky TMNT cheer and the others just stared at him for a long
second of uncomfortable silence.  *lol*

Yeah... such composition... such effective animation and layout of each
shot.

Well... it's just a cartoon.

But I was wondering a similar thing during the "Art of Invisibilty".  A
true ninja does need funky looking heat sensor goggles to 'see' their
opponent.  What happened to the lesson taught in the first movie, where
they had to spar each other blind folded?  I guess Splinter hadn't
taught them this yet in this show!
 
But next week... wow, Shredder finally appears!  Even more
interesting.. he is now trying to make a truce with the Turtles, to
fight against the Utroms.... hrmm...
