TMNT on Teletoon Retro!

Hardshell · 11-30-2011, 04:48 AM

I saw this post over at ToonZone! It looks like Canuck fans might be in luck!

In recently released press materials, Teletoon Retro has this listed under "New Series":

Quote:

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles

Premieres Friday, March 9 at 10 p.m. ET
New Episodes air Fridays at 10 p.m. ET

It all started with four pet turtles and a canister of alien ooze. When the turtles are accidentally bathed in the strange glowing green slime, they begin to grow. To change. To mutate. Raised in the sewers of New York City by their wise sensei, Master Splinter, they are schooled in the ancient and martial arts of Ninjitsu, mastering skills of stealth, weaponry and fighting. Splinter forges these four teenage turtles, Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello and Michelangelo, into one supreme green-fighting machine!

Is the classic 1980s action series coming to Teletoon Retro come March 2012? Representatives for Teletoon Retro have yet to comment on the above details.

Is there any plans for the 80s TMNT to rerun stateside anytime soon?

wow thats freakin awesome, and nope no news has been given expect for the new NICK TMNT coming along, course that could be what you all are getting as well.

Great news indeed! Now, since Nickelodeon doesn't own the rights to the classic series, it doesn't mean that it isn't possible, but basically any Nick channel, Boomerang, or even a network like Hub (which is airing Gem) are prime targets for reairing in the US. 2012 is shaping up to be a huge year!
Interestingly it says "new episodes", though in Canada I've heard that the Red Sky seasons weren't shown due to violence from an earlier topic we posted on here so it would be the first time those episodes would air in Canada. But considering the channel is called "Teletoon Retro", it would most likely be the original series, though the 4Kids series is always a possibility considering how some outlets consider "classic" series that ended just a few years ago, such as George Lopez and Scrubs. Now if only one episode aired a week, that means it would take nearly four years to air the entire series (ending in late 2015 if it lasts).

I have never heard of teletoon. Wish i got it if they do air the ot.

Rock. Teletoon Retro is a great channel.

For Americans, Teletoon is like Cartoon Network (not owned by that company, though). The regular channel is not as good as Cartoon Network, but Teletoon Retro is far and away better than Boomerang. My opinion, of course.

Exciting! I might try to watch... even though I have the DVDs but watching them on TV is just so much more fun and it'll bring back memories....

*Kendamu* · 12-04-2011, 12:37 AM

Hm. Looks like I don't have that channel. Oh well!

*CyberCubed* · 12-04-2011, 12:45 AM

I wonder what this means for Season 10?

Omg!! I'm so excited! This is great news! Since He-man and She-ra were recently added to the network, I was wondering if or when Tmnt would ever eventually be on as well! I wanted Tmnt since the network first launched

*CyberCubed* · 12-05-2011, 12:10 AM

So I take it this is not for the U.S?

Hardshell · 03-06-2012, 09:47 AM

Confirmed! It is the 1980s series! Coming in April!

The "original" mutagen that changed the Turtles, Splinter, Bebop, and Rocksteady was purple. It changed colors... a lot.

I always thought it was pink.
