While you guys were watching weirdos "fighting" (I've never seen even a drunk, stoned guy fight so horribly), I was watching awesome shows like Arthur and Recess. They're animated and still look more realistic than Power Rangers. Maybe its because I'm not into "violent" shows made for kids, like Superman and Batman, because they suck, its like, well, lame. No blood, no gore, what kind of "violent" show is that?

Now its Mythbusters, Modern Marvels, Fresh Prince of Bel Air, and Spongebob FTW (those are really the few shows I now watch).

+1 (except SpongeBob, that show is and always has been utterly stupid)

The fact that I didn't watch "violent" shows as a kid may have something to do with the fact that I don't have and never did have cable TV. So, pretty much all I got in the way of shows was PBS (Arthur) and ABC saturday morning cartoons (Recess). But now I know better, you don't need cable to watch cable TV, just an internet connection

Same here for me except I got cable in the 4th grade and always had it since.

Leonardo has been my favorite for roughly 20 years and I still see no reason why that should change.

I'd always have to have him when playing TMNT Arcade back in the day. Good times.

I just had to say Mikey. Always was my favorite, although Raphael always came a very close second.

Hell yeah! I still have the "Let's kick shell!" thing stuck in my head from turtles in time

It all comes down to who you played as in the games, it seems

...

As for me, that'd be Donatello

. His bō just kicks ass!

I love them all for having the names of famous renaissance artists.

Also, who the hell voted for option 5?

I was never a fan of TMNT.

I like squirtle the best. A katana is no match for a barrage of bubbles!

Leo!

He reminds me of me. he's the leader in the pack (I'm the oldest in my family), and his color (blue) is my favorite color (I own a blue car, painted my controller blue, always wear blue jeans, etc). Plus, TWO swords versus a pair of swinging sticks, a longer stick, or some pointy metal toothpicks.... Seriously.

On another note... The new TMNT SUCKS. Both the movie, and the show. I just cannot say that enough.

Well I like

Dilbert
Squares
Mr. Turtle

They are my 3 pet turtles, the first two are the size of quarters and the 3rd is about as big as my palm.

Raphael has been my favorite for about eighteen years, and I have consistently maintained Turtle fandom during the entire time.

I wasn't enough of a fan to watch the third movie more than once, but I was still a fan. The first movie is one of my favorites, though.

Television has really changed over the past ten years or so, though. I didn't have cable growing up, but I was able to watch Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and Batman:The Animated Series over the antenna on the roof.

The old TMNT episodes don't hold up so well anymore, but I don't see how anyone would choose to watch "Pepper Anne" or "Recess" or any of that other Disney crap over Batman. That was seriously one of the greatest American cartoon series ever. Those old episodes are still awesome. The later series on the WB network wasn't so good, though.

Blastoise is t3h king of all turtles.

And why did this option, "Turtles = made of fail + lame!" show up after I voted? Cause it would have been my choice if it'd been there.
