Donatello's Degree! I remember that one was unique on account of the fact that they actually used a banner in the background with the actual year's date on it.

Thank you.

Too Hot to Handle! That was Vernon's annoying nephew Foster Fenwick.

[Gaucelm]

Ah, thank you!

Do you know which episode is where Michaelangelo is hypnotized by Splinter so that he hates pizza? (because he ate all of it in the beginning and that's his punishment)

And which one where the Turtles' fridge is completely frozen in ice, so they decide to "attack" the ice several times by screaming "Cowabunga" and using their weapons, as if it was an enemy?

And which episode where Raphael is forced by a villain to tell jokes on the radio, so that the people in the city keep laughing?

Thanks!

You bet!! The first is "Cowabunga Shredhead", where Shredder and Krang attempt to clone Michaelangelo to infiltrate the lair. But thanks to Bebop and Rocksteady, it goes wrong and Shredder thinks he's Michaelangelo. One of the only episodes to feature Splinter's mind control ability.

The second is "The Ice Creature Cometh" from Season 5 where they accidentally create an ice monster in the Arctic and unleash him on the city while Shredder steals thermal explosives to try and free the Technodrome.

The third is "Raphael Knocks Em Dead" in Season 4 where Raph is obsessed with stand up comedy thanks to a new satellite TV hookup then gets tangled up in a comedian-napping scheme and has to stop Pinky McFingers and Baxter's brother from turning everyone into helpless laughing victims.

That was the same episode?? Wow!

Kinda like that Red Sky episode where Krang shows he has mind control powers? That he never used before?

Anyway, thank you very much!

Oh! One last question:
What episode was it where the Turtles fight a little guy who dresses up as Shredder and tries to attack them with bug sprays? Forgot this guy's name.

[cammy85]

Yup!! Splinter's ability makes sense as you have to strengthen the mind to strengthen your body. Concentration is the key!!

Krang's ability only worked on those with limited brain power. Bebop and Rocksteady were smarter (if that's possible) that Dregg's Batmen which is why it worked on him.

That episode is Michaelangelo Meets Bugman again. The villain's name is the Swatter, a fake villain made solely to lure the Turtles in and discover their secret identities. Yet the already knew Bugman's identity and wanted a piece of him too. One thing I found oddly hilarious was that the others laughed when they discovered the Swatter was a cheap ripoff of Shredder but Michaelangelo wasn't laughing. If anything, he should've been the most amused of all.

[Gaucelm]

Thank you again! (am I the only one who'd like Swatter as a mid-level boss in a TMNT action game?)

Oh, I have another one!

Would you know which episode that has:
Shredder, Bebop and Rocksteady have to wait around in the city (because of some plan I think). So, Bebop and Rocksteady ask Shredder:
"What should we do in the meantime, boss?"
Shredder hesitates and says "Well, uh... I don't know... how about you, like, go get some fuel for the technodrome?"
"Sure boss!"
Bebop and Rocksteady try to rob some fuel from gas stations, but they discover on TV that a scientist has invented a superfuel.
So they decide to steal it, but the Turtles discover what happens, and they intervene, passing around the test tube containing the superfuel.

I liked this part because the villains are shown doing some smaller scale, trivial thing. This is the kind of stuff that makes characters likeable to me.

[cammy85]

I just watched that one!! "Usagi Come Home" from late Season 3. Shredder and co. kidnap Obento, Usagi's surrogate father; then challenged Usagi to a rigged duel Using a magnet, Usagi's sword is pinned to the wall, costing him the duel. In exchange, Shredder sics him on the Turtles. While they wait, Bebop and Rocksteady suggest trying to steal fuel for the Technodrome.

[Gaucelm]

Thank you!

It's weird, because my mind had completely disconnected this plot line from the episode! Was it one with a "halfway plot switch"?

*Do you know which episode had some kind of interdimensional dinosaur who multiplied when it ate fibers? Who also loved chocolate bars?
There was a Turtle who managed to have enough autority to order them around, like how eating minerals in a museum was baaad.
Apparently, the dinosaur eating chocolate made him fusion back into one single giant dinosaur. The Turtles used a giant chocolate bar that was used for a TV ad (even as a kid, I was wondering why giant candy props always seemed to be real candy, like how toy cars worked like real cars for small creatures to drive).
So in the end, the Turtles make him eat a mineral that makes him disappear for good. It swallowed the top spike of a skyscraper.

Man, now that I write this, I realize how crazy some of the episodes were.

*There was also an episode where there was an old CEO who had to use a hearing device, which prevented him from being hypnotized by villains. I remember there was some flooding in his building, and in the end he was talking about how his works will benefit people of all colors.
"Even green?" ask the Turtles.
"Even green." he confirms.

Would you know which one it was? Thanks.

[CyberCubed]

That episode was, "The Big Zipp attack" from Season 4.

I think that guy you're thinking of was Octavius Ogilvy of Octopus Inc. in the episode "Corporate Raiders from Dimension X." A classic!

[Gaucelm]

Thank you very much!

I'm trying to find an episode where April gets tired of whatever villain's taken her this time, and lobs a few ninja moves of her own, prompting Raphael (only turtle around) to comment, "Where did you learn crazy ninja moves like that?"
April replies something to the effect, "When you've been in as many episodes as I have, you start picking it up."

[cammy85]

Raphael, Turtle of a Thousand Faces in Season 5. The villain was the classic Mad Dog McMutt.

What episode was it when the turtles going to fight Shredder in front of the World Trade Center but decided they couldn't because they didn't want to damage a national landmark?
I found that scene depressingly ironic, but I can't remember what episode it was in.

Actually, the episode is Enter The Fly. The World Trade Center was also in Enter The Fly but that's not the landmark the turtles were afraid of damaging.
