I've been a TMNT fan for decades, with some hiatuses. Being a fan can be very difficult sometimes, and you can feel an extremely conditional love for the franchise. It is very natural to dislike some licensed TMNT works, or even entire swaths of them, as well as to gripe about it. But as long as there is still some TMNT material you like, you can still call yourself a TMNT fan. There's Mirage TMNT, Palladium TMNT, the 1987 TV series, the various video games, Archie TMNT, the Golden Harvest/Imagi films, Image TMNT, The Next Mutation, the 2003 TV series, IDW TMNT, the 2012 TV series, Amazing Adventures, the (Aka-awful) Michael Bay films, Rise of the TMNT, and even major unlicensed stuff like w:c:mntgaiden:MNT Gaiden, not to mention an entire world of fan art and fan fiction of various artistic quality and inclination. That's at least 15 different continuities. If you ever find that there's a TMNT series you like that has since been discontinued, or you don't like the TMNT you're currently looking at, then there's a whole variety of other TMNT to check out.
