Granted, that point was never in doubt, but I do think it's interesting.
Honestly, I don't thing them having different birthdays proves anything. They were mutated after Splinter found them (or they fell on him, take your pick) and he would have had no way of knowing when they were hatched, and neither would they (they were simple-minded animals until then). I think it was a case of Splinter picking birthdays for them as tots.

Other than "Take Me to Your Leader," did April wear a cold weather coat in any other episode? I remember she wore a blue rain jacket (or something) in "The Irish Jig is Up" and a ski suit in "A Real Snow Job." But I was thinking she might have also worn a yellow overcoat with some white fur trim at some point.

I'm looking for an episode were the Shredder fills the city? building? with water and washes the Turtles down the sewer. Then Rocksteady or Bebop says a bad joke that includes something about the turtles being washed away.
I've only heard a friend tell me this before from the swedish version of the Turtles so I want to know what the english joke was supposed to be like. Translating something from swedish to english doesn't always (never) work

What episode was that from?

It sounds like it could probably be "20,000 Leaks Under the City" (Season 3).

I'm guessing JYX's suggestion of "20,000 Leaks Under the City" is the best bet, although the Turtles' sewer also got flooded during "Leonardo Vs. Tempestra." Shredder and his goons weren't even in that episode though.

Was Granitor a Lieutenant or a Sergeant?

In the 1987 series, was Granitor (General Traag's right-hand man) a Lieutenant or a Sergeant? Because in Wikipedia it's saying he was a Lieutenant, but in TMNTpedia it's saying he was a Sergeant. (I assumed Grantior was a Sergeant.)

I know it's a small detail, and I watched "Hot Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X" (when Granitor is first introduced), but I couldn't catch anything.

Do any of you know which episode it can be conclusively found in? Or was this military rank given in one of the video game manuals sometime during Turtlemania?

Granitor only appeared in one episode and his name or rank was never mentioned in that episode. The rank Sergeant was from the IDW comics. As far as I can tell the rank Lieutenant was never used in any official material.

Granitor's name was revealed by the Konami instruction manual for TMNT II of all things. Surprised he never got a toy either.

Huh... It did say Granitor was a Lieutenant on Wikipedia, but now it is removed.
Anyways, I figured that Granitor had to possibly have some type of military ranking above being a private, rather than just being a generic Rock Soldier, because I saw Granitor wearing a military medal throughout the "Hot Rodding Teenagers From Dimension X" episode. ...But I'm probably sure it was more or less an arbitrary animation decision.

I just didn't know if any, military ranking, Granitor had.

Thanks for the input Xav and CyberCubed. I appreciate it!

I'm fairly certain he was a LT, though I can't remember which episode called him that. If it's any consolation, he's referred to as a LT in the IDW series. I imagine it was a rabid fanboy who removed that from Wikipedia, though.

Hmmm, I guess I would have to do some digging if OT Granitor is mentioned by OT General Traag in some episode because I thought Granitor is only visibly seen in "Hot Rodding Teenagers From Dimension X".

These are the episodes (with help from TMNTPedia) where the OT Rock Soldiers appear: "Hot Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X", "Shredder & Splintered", "Enter The Fly", "Return of the Technodrome", "Michelangelo's Birthday", "Four Turtles and a Baby", "Rock Around The Block", "Shredder Triumphant", "Wrath of the Rat King", and "Turtle Trek"
...I guess I better start watching.

Plus... I thought Granitor in IDW was a Sergeant, not a LT though. Unless he got promoted or something after this panel (I'm not keeping full attention on IDW though ):


Thanks Powder for contributing!

I removed it from Wikipedia because I couldn't find any point in that episode where he's called a LT.

Whoops, my mistake. Thought he was an LT there. Still, I'm fairly sure one of those episodes addresses it.

This doesn't shed any light on the subject, but I do love the way he looks in the TMNT2 NES manual:

I don't know. Didn't he only appear in that one episode though?

There were two at the absolute least, I'm positive of that much. I can't say if he had any lines, though.

What's the episode where the son of Channel Six's owner (I think) tries to intern in the news office, but it turns out he's really incompetent for the work?

The episode is from Season 6's "Nightmare In the Lair", with the son being Milton Frobish III. His incompetence is what made April and Irma busy at Channel 6 before having a chance to help the Turtles and Splinter at their lair.

Oh, wow, I had completely forgotten that was the same episode with Creepy Eddy!

I remember a moment where some girl(I think it could be Irma) ate a hamburger

Unfortunately that's all I saw other than a glimpse of the Turtles confirming it's this show and that was back on 1999 so definitely not 2003
