Michelangleo's Birthday

[ToTheNines]

This episode really pisses me off... bad! There's alot of things I could nitpick about it. But the one thing that gets my goat is when the turtles think Mikey is DEAD, they seem little more than distressed. wtf?

[The Shelf]

You don't even seem distressed that you misspelled Michelangelo's name! Heretic! Burn him at the stake! Just teasing.

So what? His full name is hard to spell sometimes even I can admit that.

[Ballerninja]

Ha, I'm pretty sure Shelf was just joking.

I mean hell, even Eastman and Laird spelled it wrong for a long time! "Michaelangelo"

I'll just use the excuse that they can't show too much negative/sad emotion at the idea that he could be dead. I don't know if anyone's ever noticed this before but I found that sometimes it seems they went out of their way to never use the d-word, dead, died, kill, etc. I think the closest thing they used was the word "perish".
But maybe they were too much in shock to really think anything so soon?
