X-Entertainment Finds the "Sewer Pies" Commercial!
 

Self-explanatory, really.

LINK.

Holy crap - Awesome!!

Stunning...Absolutely Stunning

*giddyclap* Wow. That's crazy! How come I have no recollection of that commercial?!

...I had forgotten ever seeing that commercial. Damn dem pies was good. Reading the article, I felt as though it was calling me old...and it would be right. I did indeed recall the filling as green...heh.

The commercial is for the original pies. I'm pretty sure the pies that came out in conjuncture with the Secret of the Ooze movie had green filling. Ok, found a Wikipedia entry that verifies this (as much as Wikipedia can verify anything).

I have heard endless comments about how good these pies were, but they disgusted me so much back then that I never ate one and I still don't think I'd be able to eat one today. But it might just be because I'm not a vanilla pudding person.

I loved the whole theory in the article about the kid getting a pie is the same kid who dropped the glass bowl with the baby turtles. He said the kid only looks 3 years older, so it must be the same kid because this commercial aired 3 years after the first ep.

But if you think clearly it couldn't be the same kid, because from the moment the kid drops the baby turtles untill the teenage turtles actually start crime-fighting is 15 years apart. So the kid who dropped them should at least be 23 or older!

I deserve prizes!! Or actually pies :twink:

I was afraid they would be like those Moon Pies that have marshmallow in them- yuck. But the Sewer Pies look actually remotely tasty.

That kid looked like Zach, and I think the commercial was being prejudicious. There was no Bebop lol

Sweet dude...I don't recall ever seeing this either. I remember I used to be confused as to why they always played barbie commercials during ninja turtles and seldom or never played ninja turtles commercials...

WOW! Another great idea they totally dropped the ball on not recreating. Sure, the TMNT movie airheads were good, but not green frosted vanilly pies like that. I'd pay the now inflated buck twenty for one of them now (Tht's what hostess snacks have jumped too... disgusting, isn't it?)

I love the TMNT comeback, but no pies... no cereal... oh well... at least we got the Pez dispensers...

Thank you! I was beginning to wonder if the whole "snot" conversation with my stepfather was over plain vanilla pudding. :ohwell: :lol:

Actually, in the Old Toon continuity, the mutagen mutated the TMNT directly into teenagers so there was no 15 year gap between when they were normal turtles and when they became ninja.

So it could still very possibly be the same kid ("Chet" as he's called in Mirage continuity) who dropped them in the sewer.

And I think that's awesome.

There are discrepancies regarding that continuity in the OT.

In some episodes, they refer to themselves as "baby turtles" when the ooze hit them. This is stated in the "Michaelangelo meets Mondo Gecko" episode.

In "Turtle Tracks", they are shown immediately going to be teenagers, BUT since this is a flashback, who knows if it was just shown for compressing time and simplifying things.

Raphael did say they were raised in an aquarium with a castle in the "Elementary My Dear Turtle" episode (IIRC).

In another episode, they did state something about a map to the lair drawn when they were kids.

So there are a lot of errors.

And in the "Mondo Gecko" episode, Mikey does say that the medallion belongs to his mom. WHY OH WHY couldn't they go the whole way and say the truth that it belongs to his FATHER.

Every time Splinter calls the Turtles "my students", especially when they are not in the role of students (such as when he serves them soup to heal them in "Muckman messes up"), I CRINGE!!! And then there was "Sensei appreciation day"- at least the newspaper comic strip does have the Turtles saying "Happy Father's Day, Master Splinter".

Did that need to be adressed?

Maybe I'd eat the goo, but not out of the pie.

Hell, when I went to DC, the ice cream vendors still had the NTM turtle head ice creams

Those pies were great,I loved them....use to eat'em all the time.

I some-what remeber the commercial,I mean I know Iv seen it since I used to buy them,but its been so long since Iv seen the ad.

me too I remember those and that commercial. That just made me so happy!
