How many of you are still watching the old TMNT classic cartoon?

*Kendamu* · 10-27-2009, 01:00 PM

I pop in Season 1 or 2 once in awhile.

*plastroncafe* · 10-27-2009, 01:07 PM

Not yet anyway.
Will give it a full rewatch once I'm done re-reading all the Vol 1 Mirage stuff.

GreasyBoi · 10-27-2009, 01:10 PM

I haven't been able to watch any in the past couple of weeks, but I will in a couple of days when I am done with all of my errands.

*Andrew NDB* · 10-27-2009, 01:11 PM

I've tried a few times over the past 2-3 years. Every time, I only get about 6 or 7 episodes into it before I just completely lose interest/get tired of the camp and the schdict. Generally right when the "Hahah! This cartoon was the sh*t back in the day! I remember this!"-type nostalgia wears off.

MrDizzyDEE · 10-27-2009, 01:14 PM

I pop in a couple of my old tapes on the weekend or youtube em and with a couple of friends.

mikey22 · 10-27-2009, 01:24 PM

If I put in some TMNT cartoons for my friends, I'm pretty sure their reaction would go a little bit like, "Hahaha! No, seriously, what are we watching?"

hudemx · 10-27-2009, 01:29 PM

I watch it every now and then. It was such a big part of my Childhood that I can feel my self from the past... how I watched the toon back in the early 90s and got all the toy around.
I loved to replay the episodes when I was younger with my actionfigures...
I never got any Toy of Krang - even though Krang was my favourit in the Show! So I had to build my own with LEGO or rip the Head of some other figures, paint them pink and just imagined that it was krang

I have more of the, "Alright! Kickass!" kind of friends when it comes to TMNT. If I were to bring up the comics or try to show one to a friend they're just like, "Yeah... Where's Bebop and Rocksteady?"

Once in awhile I order Lionsgate DVDs from Netflix, or watch some episodes on youtube

I feel the same way about that. TMNT helps me relax and loosen up a bit.

TMNT or not, I think most of my friends would be like, "Uhh... comics? You still read comics?" And multiply that sentiment several times over if I were to produce any TMNT cartoons to watch.

Though at least with the comics, I can do the move that's like, "Look, I know what you're thinking... but wait! The TMNT are badass in the comics... and I can prove it..." and then make them look at issues like Vol. 1 #10 and #21. With the cartoons I wouldn't have any ground to stand on.

I can recommend several stool softeners that may have the same effect.

*Hero* · 10-27-2009, 02:13 PM

I watch it now and again for a laugh. I have a season 5 DVD pending my way and would love to see it.

Why do you have friends that judge you so much?

This just in... most adults don't watch cartoons for little kids or read comic books.

Not that I'm saying there's anything wrong with either (the contrary)... it's just pretty far from the norm. I certainly wouldn't blame either hypothetical reaction from my friends to me just randomly putting in some Turtles cartoons to watch or randomly handing them some comics to read.

I like to watch it every now and then. Especially the Eye of Sarnath saga. Sometimes I'll put it in just to listen to some of the background music. It's just that awesome.

*ToTheNines* · 10-27-2009, 02:27 PM

Its part of my rotation of shows. I watch the OT, then the NT, Cowboy Bebop, Batman: TAS, Superman: TAS, Justice League/JLU, Samurai Champloo, Batman Beyond, The Simpsons...

Then I start over. This takes me over a year normally (since I have other things to do/watch), so when I get around Justice Leauge I have to watch a few Turtles episodes. I normally watch the bad ones so I can skip over them when I get back around to it.

The question should really be "How many of you are NOT watching the classic Toon? (muz b crazy if you're not!

)"
