I'm sorry but since Shredder killed Splinter forever, he deserved to get his head cut off. I usually wouldn't wish that for anyone, but you kill Splinter forever, you get your head cut off, end of story! I hate to say it but...this series used to be completely awesome, so was another show called Once Upon A Time on ABC (I know its a totally different topic but I'm just comparing so please don't hate me). I used to be addicted to both but after a while, OUAT was either killing off all my favorite characters, or making them go back and forth from being someone who kills your favorite character to being someone who you really want to take pity on. After they killed off one of my last remaining favorites, I just had enough. Now with a show's storyline that I can actually almost uncannily relate to, TMNT, so many things in the story, the fact Shredder blames Splinter for the murder, Shredder being completely narcisstic, always playing the victim, and the position that Karai is stuck in, is what it's like for me. Shredder represents my father's "not so good side" (of course he's not evil but their actual morals and level of narcissium are basically the same). And Splinter represents the "good side of him" or the father type that I've always wanted but never really truely had (under the surface). And now...I'm not making this up, I feel like the people from the show are following me everywhere, the whole situation with my dad has gotten so bad that I feel like his "Splinter side" is almost if not completely gone. And within the same week, Splinter died for good. So even though they're finally going to add a character that I had been begging and begging for, next season (or this season, haven't been paying attention since), it kind of pails in comparison.

So I'm sorry for complaining and seeming to be WAY too engrossed with a darn cartoon, but it just seems so uncannily like my reall life, that it just could never really be the same for me if I continued watching.
