Subject: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Written By: Retrolover on 07/18/19 at 12:25 pm

I did one of these threads for The Real Ghostbusters already, so I’m doing one now for the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

What did you think about the 1987 cartoon, 3 movies, and merchandise? Was the first movie better than every episode of the original cartoon to you? What was your favorite food product with the Turtles on it? The cereal? The cookies? The Hostess pudding pies? How long did it take for you to match the turtles with their correct names and bandanas? What were your least favorite action figures from the toy line? Did you own a pet turtle and take up karate in the early 90s because of the show and two movies? Were you sad when Xennials and Millennials started imitating 60s kids and abandoned the TMNT? Please share all TMNT related stories and pictures here.

I think it goes without saying that the first ever TMNT cartoon was the ultimate 80s and 90s cartoon for late XYers. The finale to the syndicated show (“Once Upon a Time Machine”) was weak. The best episodes were from the 1987 miniseries.

I occasionally watched the animated series. But not avidly.

Did you know anyone who watched the syndicated episodes again and again on video in the evenings after the show went off for the day?
