a very cool show that was on Saturday
morning TV during the late 80s and early 90s. It was inspired by a
cult comic
book and spawned 3 motion pictures and several video games. The 4 turtles became mutated by a radioactive ooze. This factor gives the seies an environmental message leaning that needs attention today.
1. In the computer room in the campus library where I went to college the 4 tie-in printers are named Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo and
Raphael.
2. When the local TV stations in 1992 started programming 4 hours of nonstop
bullshit news programs on Saturday mornings for the yuppies, my son Roger cried because he couldn't watch "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" anymore. I wrote to Channel 6 telling them how furious I was.
