Never saw that before. I'll believe it when I see it for sure.

Aww, makes sence now. And yes this episode had some of the best qoutes in the series, just like the whole mini-series. After talking about this does anyone else feel like killing the Network guys who feel they should not only show the series edited, but the not show it at all for a long time and won't let anyone else show it. Cartoon network should own all the good old cartoons we all grew up to. I mean they show G.I. Joe, why not all the other classics.

Yeah, I hear ya.

It would fit perfectly on Cartoon Network.

Jeph's entirely correct on the varying titles (in fact, I still own the coloring book

), and in fact it completely explains my reluctance to ever refer to said episode by name, simply because I have NO IDEA what the "official" name for it is. "Shredder Gets Splintered" makes the most sense from a grammatical standpoint, but the original epidode does indeed say "Shredder & Splintered" on the title card. I remember at the tender age of 7 wondering aloud "What the F*CK?" when I saw that title, because it didn't make any sense then either.

Apparently they realized this as well and fixed it for mass-market video release. Didn't do much to quell the confusion, though, obviously.

Maybe it's really called "Shredded and Splintered."

That would work as well.

As far as I recall, the first time I saw the episode on TV, the title said "THE Shredder IS Splintered"...mind you, I have not tried any drugs in my life other than tobacco and alcohol, plus my memory is more long term than most people I know. Until I see for myself once again on the actual episode itself (when and if that happens, either on TV or DVD), there's no use trying to convince me otherwise.
