By the way, MiwandSplinterfan1:

No one I know was expecting a same-sex kiss in this series. Even Legend of Korra avoided that. But strangely, TMNT still had two post-pubescent men sleeping and spooning. That's not a "we're friends" thing. That's a "we're boyfriends" thing&mdash;an extremely intimate gesture. Of course, I guess there's a possibility the writers either didn't think of this, or were sneaking something past the radar. But in this day and age, that would be extremely offensive to treat as a punchline, and it's increasingly hard to think they would be that ignorant either.

Bottom line is, if they're not a couple, then they handled it all in an extremely insensitive and rather offensive manner. They might have been able to get away with something like that 20 years ago, but today it's just...wrong. And more young people aren't so unsavvy anymore not to see that.
