Is April....

Is April in every episode of TMNT(Cartoon)?

So far all the ones ive re-seen since I was younger have her in it, I was just curious.

*Skeletoncrew* · 07-05-2002, 05:52 PM

Well, I honestly don't know...but she sure seems to be! She's just perpetually being kidnapped too! That reminds me, I always wondered why she didn't get ripped to shreds every time Shredder threw her over his shoulder? He does have bladed shoulder pads!

Yea! Hmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Tinselcat · 07-05-2002, 06:43 PM

i think her pockets were filled with teflon lining and padding. hey, a girl can't be too careful these days!

Samantha · 07-05-2002, 07:49 PM

LOL! Also she had this strange fondness for yellow. I always thought it was a bit strange that this well paid reporter wore the same outfit everyday for about seven years...

**Kali** · 07-05-2002, 08:33 PM

Actually, in the last couple seasons she wore a nicer, and less eye-straining, brown/green outfit that looked a whole lot better!

As for April in every episode... I honestly don't know. Someone would have to check to summeries on ninjaturtles.com to be sure.

*enigma-1* · 07-05-2002, 09:12 PM

*snorts* That'll take a bit.

**Nturtle** · 07-06-2002, 09:09 AM

I liked the original yellow jumpsuit, i was more 80s

Loolaa · 07-06-2002, 10:30 AM

I bet she she was in every ep. Even if only for a short while, or just on tv. ... but I couldn't say for sure as I didn't see every season.

I didn't like the yellow jump suit. I wish I'd seen that brown/green outfit!

*enigma-1* · 07-06-2002, 10:44 AM

Trust me, it was better than the yellow.

**HorseTechie** · 07-06-2002, 10:52 AM

Oh yes... it bothered me too, that lovely, yellow (often times rather revealing) jumpsuit. I so liked what she owre int he later seasons, as well as in the first movie. More..normal!

But get this for an eye opener, she was not ever a TV news reporter oncein the Mirage comics. She was a PC lab technician for the real Baxter Stockman, the African American scientist responsible for the mousers! If she wore a jumpsuit in that environment, then I can understand why.

**Nturtle** · 07-06-2002, 10:58 AM

If your really crazy you can check the episode guide on ninjaturtles.com it gives lists of all the characters in every single episode

Loolaa · 07-06-2002, 11:09 AM

They must have based that yellow jumpsuit on the blue jumpsuit she wore in that second mirage issue. Her hair was similar, too.

**HorseTechie** · 07-06-2002, 12:08 PM

My point exactly...

RIGHT ON!

*Skeletoncrew* · 07-06-2002, 01:37 PM

Yuck. I don't like yellow. But I'm sure Shredder liked the fact that she was always easy to spot!

Loolaa · 07-06-2002, 01:39 PM

Yeah, you couldn't miss her in that thing!

*Skeletoncrew* · 07-06-2002, 01:43 PM

You'd think an investigative reporter would want to be a little more low-key.

SeaThreePeeO · 07-06-2002, 02:19 PM

Did she have a closet full of those yellow jump suits? If not that one must have really wiffed a bit

**Kali** · 07-06-2002, 02:24 PM

Okay, here's my discovery. Looking through the episode guide didn't take all that long, I only needed to scan the cast listing. April was not in, or at least is not listed in the credits of:
Napoleon Bonafrog: Colossus of the Swamps
The Legend of Koji
Atlantis Awakes
Turtle Trek

The following episodes may or may not have had her in it. They had no cast listing nor was she mentioned in the summary, but the summaries were very short.
Rondo In New York
Elementary, My Dear Turtles

So she's not in four, maybe six, out of what, 193 episodes? So she's not in ALL of them.

I'm still trying to hunt down a picture of April in her later episodes outfit. And remember, she didn't wear the jumpsuit all the time, she had a few other outfits. I remember a nice purple dress from the episode where her apartment got robbed, among others. They just can't afford to design a new outfit for every episode.
