Sick Product of a Sick System

If you don't like this, we can't be friends.

Don't listen to the negative reviews

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I'm amazed at how toned down this version is. I've enjoyed some episodes so far. I actually love the relationship between the brothers here than I do in the 2003 version. There's more, "I love you," and "I need you" emotion within their 80s incarnation. I really liked that.I love a good show with a true family vibe.April O'Neal's 80s incarnation kind of bugs me though.I like her 2003 incarnation better.I like that the Ninja Turtles seem more relaxed in being a ninja and protecting people.Their 2003 incarnation seemed like they were trying too hard.

Loved this show as a kid, but unfortunately I was a little late, because I was born in 1994, but my older brother Johnboy use to come up with them constantly! ( he was born in 1978)and my sister was born in 1984, so I grew up around 80s kids, lol! My brother would have his old tmnt toys laying around and he would give them to me and my twin brother. We started watching it around 2003, because at the time I was watching the 2003 remake of them, and my brother said they had an original one before it, so me and my brother checked it out and loved it ever since! Me And brother practically lived 80s, because before the game cube we used to play the Super Nintendo, like turtles in time and stuff, so actually we were introduced to them in like 1998 without even knowing it! And we use to watch re runs of gargoyles, which lasted a couple years. I love this one and the new one, but this was the original, and is definitely worth watching, I mean I simply loved shredder and Krang, and bebop and rock steady were hilarious! Definitely earns 10/10!

These Turtles were my heores growing up. Fou such polar opposite characters come together to get a job done.LEONARDO- The leader, the one in charge DONATELLO- The least violent scientist RAPHAEL- The sarcastic"Mouthy" one (MY personal favorite:)) MICHAELANGELO- The "Party dude" the lade back one The teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles seem like a pretty far fetched idea but pretty much formed the era. My sister and I grew up loving the Turtles When I'm old and grey and sitting in my rocker with my grandkids around me they'll ask "Grandme what did you watch when you were young?" and I'll smile and say "The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles of course!"If anyone ever has the chance to see the show they should because it CLEARLY can stand the test of time!

This is known to be the "Heros in the Half Shell" 5 parter from 1987.It's also season 1 of the long ran TV series. Due to the fact that it has the fewest episodes in any season.I bet there are hardly any series that start with a season with 5 episodes.But anyways these were made to introduce the TMNT to the kids who are watching it on TV.I didn't see these episodes till around 2003 because I was too young to remember any at first.Anyways these first 5 episodes show you how the Turtles first met April and how they encountered Shredder and his Foot Clan. In my opion episode 4 is the best one next to episode 1 and 2.
