The "What Episode was That From?" Thread
 

I couldn't think of what else to call this thread, but I figured it might come in handy. Most of us don't have perfect memories when it comes to recalling everything we remember from cartoon shows with exact precision. Often, I can recall images of soundbites but not the episode reference.

After a while, I get agitated over not being able to remember the name of an episode, but I hate starting a new thread just to ask each question. So, I figured it might be nice to create a go-to, catch-all thread. Hopefully, the fan-base can provide correlations between episode names and lingering memories.

I figured I'll start out with this question: Wasn't there an episode or two where Shredder and/or Krang appeared on the NYC Times Square TV screen? It may not have been Times Square per se, but I think it was some large video screen somewhere in the city. I'd very much appreciate some help in identifying this episode.

Hmm...Interesting thread. Might be a keeper. But to answer ur Q I think at the end of season 1 I vaguely remember shredder revealing his existence and giving an ultamatum.k I think it was the end of season 1 I remember Donny sending the technodrome to Deminsion X

I watched that episode fairly recently (Shredder and Splintered/Shredder is Splintered/Shredder & Splinter/whatever), and I believe that video ultimatum was delivered through the turtle's sewer television set. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

It was "Welcome Back Polarisoids" (Season 5). First April appears on the "FONY" screen, then Krang interrupts in.

Thanks a bunch! It figures it would have something to do with those Camera-lovin' Polarisoids!

EDIT: lol @ the "Fony" Times Square screen!

I seem to recall it happening in more than one ep as well. It was TV they interrupted in "Shredder's Mom", I think.

I set up a similar thread in 'forum games', but that's just a trivia thing; guess the toitle show. ^_^

That one was actually one my mind, since I remember Shredder interrupted an April broadcast on the NYC heat wave, but I have yet to go back and check it out.

Which episode was it where April O'Neil was about to get shrunk, and she stated that while she wanted to lose weight, she didn't want to lose it that way? Did she ever make any other comments about her weight on the show? There were times where she seemed pretty vain (like when she complained about being a hag in her late twenties), so it was bound to come up, but I just remember that one where she was going to get shrunk specifically.

^^^I think comments like that were made all the time ecspecially with emra lol I think in Sky turtlesk to b specific

The only time I can remember April being shrunk was in the episode, "Funny, They Shrunk Michaelangelo."

Which episode did April say, "I'm a 90's kind of gal!"

It was from Napoleon Bonafrog: Colossus of the Swamps, after she uses a forklift to free the Turtle Van.

I'm trying to find the episode where Shredder says (I think this is the exact quote), "Oh well, Krang, it will have to do." It's not Planet of the Turtleoids.

Do you remember anymore of the context? Like maybe it was in reference to a certain invention or something?

I wish I knew, but I only remember it as a standalone quote. I just tend to jokingly use it once in awhile, and was hoping to find the actual scene. The thing is, though, when I watched all the DVD releases as they came out, I don't remember hearing it, so either I overlooked it or maybe I'm just misremembering this quote.

I remember it. Krang was complaining that some invention wasn't ready, but Shredder insisted on using it anyway. Might have been "Teenagers From Dimension X. Maybe "Sky Turtles". I just know that Uncle Phil said it.

That was The Big Break In when the minimizer almost made her shrink and the one where she was upset about being 28 years old was Leatherhead, Terror Of The Swamps, when the turtles saw the fountain of youth.

Impressive reference, Icebot! I remember that bit from the Leatherhead episode, but not the "The Big Break In" (I tend to confuse the titles and plots to those three Season 3 finale episodes!).

Police VS the Robot and other Scenes
 

I am looking for the scene in the Original series when a group of 3 or 4 Police officers confront this robot placed by Shredder and Krang outside of this building as Krang/Shredder aim a Ray gun at Earth's sun,
also this Footage where the United States Army shoots at the Technodrome in Manhattan

The first part is "Take me to your leader." It's an episode from season three.

The Big Blow Out, also in season 3, (and the season finale).

[EDIT]

Nothing to say now! :-)

Any chance we could get a Mod to Sticky this thread?

EDIT: Thanks!

I thought I'd go ahead and update this thread with a funny Shredder quote that I long remembered but had a hard time identifying with a specific episode.

In "Peking Turtle," Shredder responds to Krang's idea to kidnap April O'Neil with, "Hmm, not a bad idea, although we've done that at least 30 times before. But hey, who's counting?"

In the same episode he gives bizarre marching orders to an army of marble warriors, saying "Your left, your left, you left your wife and 48 kids!" :o

Hadn't watched that episode in a while, but it's got some really funny bits!

Thanks to tone-master for the answer!

I'm still stumped, man! Hopefully, we'll be able to figure this one out eventually!

Ok, I've got a request!

In what episodes did Burne Thompson threaten to demote April O'Neil to reporting on "fashion shows" ?

Yes....Yes he did :P only if I could recall........

I know (allegedly) unmutated Rocksteady mentioned fashion shows in "Turtle Tracks", but I dunno about Burne.

What was the name of the episode where Krang and/or Shredder reversed the earth's gravity? That one was my favourite, hands down.

Edit: Nevermind, it's "Sky Turtles". As soon as I ask the question, I find it.

New York City
 

It was just New York City, not the entire Earth.

"Today New York City tomorrow the world!" I am sure Shredder said something like that. Its a cliche' line that a villain is prone to spout at least once!:D

Can anyone identify the episode in which the following quote is from?

Krang and Shredder are watching a view screen and Krang says something like:
"Quiet, Shredder, it's April O'Neil and we have to develop a story plot around her!"

OMW,I want to say that one is from "Rock Around The Block" but I cannot say for sure. I will have to watch the first part of the episode to be sure unless you would like to do the honors.

Thanks, man, I'll check it out sometime!

That is a pretty funny quote though. I like it when the show was self-aware for the sake of humor.

What was the episode where they heated the earth up and it was hotter then two toads beeping in a shoe box? It shows April in her underwear and does anyone have a screen cap of that?

I don't know about April's... uh... "underthings", but "Shredder's Mom" featured a Shredder plot to bake the earth to a crisp. It almost worked and it did get pretty hot.

Thanks man that's the episode and I found the pic I needed.

There was also one with Philo Sopho and Vernon's Nephew...what was it called?

Too Hot To Handle.

Which episode had a scene involving Bebop and an accordian? It was season two or three.

You might be thinking of the scene in "Ninja Sword of Nowhere"

I have one.There's a scene in I think it was one of the "Red Sky"episodes were the guys can't devulge what they are doing to April and she threatens to expose them.Of course at the end of the episode she apologizes.I would like to say it came from Cry Havoc.
