Classic Episode Discussion: The Incredible Shrinking Turtles

Yawn...

Also:

Donatello: Quick! Boil some water!
Raphael: We're not delivering a baby, dimbo!
Donatello: I heard it in a movie.

Leo: We've got to make it home before we get even smaller!
Raph: And quick...we're shrinking faster than a pair of cheap underwear!

Of course, it wasn't just the turtles' voices that were high-pitched; I think some sound recording glitch or whatever at the end of production cause the sound to be a fraction of an octave higher...anyone else notice that?

This is one of my favorite eps of the old series. Don't ask me why, it just is.

"Infernal technical difficulties! And just when this show was getting interesting." -


For some reason, episodes where the main character shrinks are always favs of mine, no matter the show. I don't know why, it just seems like a really cool concept.

Nobody needs to ask With all its hilarious one-liners and such, it makes for a great episode.

I always loved the tiny pizzas at the end of the episode and the look that they gave to Master Splinter.

I liked this episode, the fight for the 1st fragment was funny. The turtles were so overconfident that they would take Shredder down like nothing and they get owned by him. "Net results, 4 trapped turtles! Oh, I made a funny!"
"Baxter! Connect me with Krang in Dimension X immediately!"
"But my cone is melting in the sun!"
"SILENCE TOAD, DO AS I SAY AND NOW!"

Mike: (Opening pizza boxes) Hey, just scope out these babies!

*short pause as Leo, Don, and Raph look at the mini-zas*

Raph: Babies? These things haven't even been born yet!

Don: Is this some kind of a sick joke?

Mike: Well, ask Splinter! (points thumb at Splinter) It was his idea.

*Leo, Don, and Raph give Splinter a dirty look*

Splinter: I had them specially made for my small students, to remind them that they still have a long way to grow.

I agree with you there, dude! It's always funny when they do that, cause ya see how they react to everything being 20+ times bigger then they were before.

LEO: "Oh no, a stormdrain!"
DON: "Why are we running? It's just your average sewer trickle!"
LEO: "But we're no longer your avaerage sized mutant turtles!"

This was an alright episode... it is actually the only episode in the entire series where a character dies (the little purple alien guy)

I always liked that Shredder actually wins a fight in this episode against the turtles. But there are some preety dumb parts like the sewer snake too...

I like the part with the snake where they force feed him the soap. I think they should use the part where leo slices the soap for a soap commercial.

Whoops, silly me! Oh well, my favorite line was right after they got swept into the sewer.

LEO: "Remember, we're turtles! We're at home under the water!"
RAPH: (gurgles) "Just keep telling me that!"
