Nick TMNT Question & Answer Thread

[evan2000]

I notice so far there's no centralized thread for people to ask question about the Nick series. Most of the questions end up scattering around the official info thread, or people just make new threads to ask questions. Such threads would get lost into oblivion after some time, regardless if the question was being answered or not.

So I'm starting this new thread for people to post questions and get answers, similar in vein to the "Ask a Question, Get an Answer" thread in the comic section. Please avoid asking for opinion/predictions, ask questions only. And for people who provide answers, citing your source is recommended (if available).

Mods, please sticky this thread if you see fit.

I'll ask the first question: where did the following clip come from?



I saw a fan-made music video on youtube using this sequence, I'm surprised it's the first time I saw it despite it looked like very early teaser from Nick before the series even premiered. Anyone remember seeing this before?

Came from a Nick TMNT promo, or something from the Nick TMNT website.

Why are Mikey's mask tails shorter than everyone else's?

If anyone can tell me when season 3 will be broadcast in Belgium I'd be so grateful. Been trying to find out forever.

Don't no but keep an eye out on this website.

It tells you when new shows or season premiers start in other countries.

When did season 2 start, season 3 may start round the same time.

"Nickelodeon Germany To Premiere "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" Season Three From Saturday 14th March 2015

Although currently unconfirmed, it is expected that other localised Nickelodeon channels across Northern Europe will also debut "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" season three, including Nickelodeon Belgium (België), Nickelodeon Netherlands (Nederland) and Nickelodeon Poland (Polska), around the same time."

Yes please.

Why isn't Donnie more serious during medical situations?

For instance, when Mikey gets shell acne, Raph and Leo tease him, but Donnie says to hold up it might be more serious than they think. Then he teases him that he'll eventually explode, but he doesn't laugh or even say he's just kidding. Even when poor Mikey is freaking out about it. Then later on, when he finds out it's serious for real, he is serious. Shouldn't he have been serious from the start?

Same thing for Raph when he has those squirrels inside him. I take that to be very serious and Donnie pretends he's going to let Mikey cut him open. I think he should be more professional about medical stuff. I think there are a few more instances when he makes these deadpan jokes about medical things. His medical advice can't be taken seriously if he isn't professional about it.

I suppose they have to add the element of humor so it doesn't scare the kids?

I guess the short answer is, he's not a qualified doctor, and being a teenager at that?

I remember during my high school days, we used to fool around in the chemistry lab/workshop despite warnings from the teacher to be cautious about safety. And we took it with a grain of salt because... we were immature teenagers?

By the way, in Mikey Gets Shellacne, it felt like Donnie secretly knew that Mikey's condition was not as serious as it seemed, he was just exaggerating the severity for fun and possibly to teach Mikey a lesson for messing with mutagen. At the end of the episode Donnie even admitted that he put the antidote on acne pads simply because it was hilarious.

I think it was more of a joke about how Mikey's making a big deal out of nothing with the zits. But then later when he learns how Mikey gets the zits in the first place, it makes his joke more prophetic.
