Who remembers this awesome early 90's cult animated classic show? i grew up with it since i was 12 when it first aired on TBS and became a fan.

I love how our beloved Donetello himself plays a voice as Razor who was just as badass and i also enjoyed the action, mayhem, explosions, rock score and i had the hots for Callie Briggs (You know that cute blonde secretary chick?) at that age.

I freakin' loved it. It was Donny & Mikey as cats, haha.

No seriously, rad bad guys, rad toys, ill episodes.

I was just talking about this show the other day! I haven't actually seen an episode of it since it originally aired though. Is it still on somewhere?

Gobo said he just bought the whole series on DVD.

Oh nice! (I missed that post, obviously...) I'll have to look in to this.

It's in another thread, so it's understandable.

I loved this show as a kid, but like GK I haven't seen it in years. I always like that Donnie was in it. And yes, I knew it then, too. :D

I saw it on Boomerang like, last summer... I think it was on at 5PM EST? Dunno about now, though.

They also finally came out with a DVD recently. I brought that like it was my job.

I bought it on DVD recently too and has been one of my favorite cartoons.

Commander Feral is such a dckhead and reminds me of Jonah Jameson and Agent Fleming from Beavis and Butt Head The Movie. His neice Felina reminds me of a feline version of Major Kusanagi from Ghost in The Shell in some way.

Who else thought Callie was cute for a catgirl? i always had a thing for both girls in glasses and catgirls, there's just something appealing about them.

WB just discontinued their manufacture-on-demand "complete series" DVD, supposedly because of the bad press for using edited versions of the eps. I bought it anyway because I don't care to wait however many years until they compile and rerelease it.

Wait...edited episodes?

Yeah, but just missing the recaps and the "swatting is half battle" scenes AFAIK. Not like editing out 'chucks or anything. :P

Seems like a silly reason to bawk. Well, maybe the PSA's (or at least that's what i assume those things are. Kinda wish we'd get Turtle Tips on a TMNT DVD...or even classic Playmates Turtle ads...but that's another topic for another thread.)
