Date: 2012-10-13 02:07 am (UTC)The TMNT weren't a parody; inspired, yes. But a parody is what the Pre-Teen Dirty-Gene Kung-Fu Kangaroos were to the TMNT, not what the TMNT were to Daredevil.

Date: 2012-10-13 02:14 am (UTC)(Seriously, I only made it through S1 because I was staying with a friend in LA at the time and she introduced me to it by doing a marathon rewatch, so it's not like I had other options. Fortunately after that it got better.)

Date: 2012-10-13 02:22 am (UTC)(And yeah, the Joker's a villain, but I think he's an established enough character that it's fair to assess characters who appear in his stories; and I do not say that lightly.)
