They'd probably, for example, would have also grown up watching Sesame Street when they were little. But for them... a show about a special fictional street somewhere in their own city where humans and non-humans happily coexist, and where four little mutant Turtles might have fit right in.
What are the chances that Splinter had to explain to them, maybe a few times, that it wasn't real and they can't go find that special place that would have accepted them as is...
edit: Of course, that now kind of makes me want just a one issue comic crossover where Sesame Street is real in their world and Big Bird and others who live there are in fact mutants. lol
Maybe the Turtles can be kids in it, and they stumble across this place.
And then later they wake up...

Imagine how heartwarming it would be when they finally learn of first contact and their ability to go public, and deep down, those embittered turtles can think of such a pleasant place even in their everyday hustle and bustle of crazy places.
