"In my opinion anyone who hates JavaScript is likely to fall in love with TypeScript. Or at the very least find less reasons to complain about it."

Agreed, I fell into this group, but I was coming from a Java/.Net background. On the flip side, those who love JavaScript could be put off by imposing what essentially is an OOP layer on top of what has historically been a dynamic language so us "real" developers will be more comfortable with it (which of course I am).
