Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (known as Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles in the United Kingdom, Republic of Ireland, Germany and Sweden) is an American animated television series, produced by Fred Wolf Films and Murakami-Wolf-Swenson, Inc. which premiered in December 14th, 1987, first as a 5-part mini-series. It was based on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles characters created in comic book form by Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, although the property was changed considerably from the darker-toned comic in order to make it more suitable for children. The show was in Saturday morning syndication from October 1st, 1988 to September 23rd, 1989. Due to becoming an instant hit, the show was expanded to 5-days-a-week and aired weekday afternoons (in most markets) in syndication from September 25th, 1989 to September 3rd, 1993. On September 8th, 1990, it began its secondary run on the Columbia Broadcasting System Saturday mornings and ran as a 60-minute block from 1990 to 1994 and a 30 minute block from then until November 2nd, 1996.

The show helped launch the characters into mainstream popularity and became one of the most popular animated series in television history. Breakfast cereals, plush toys, and all manner of products featuring the animated versions of the Turtles populated the market during the late-1980s and early 1990s, and a successful Archie Comics comic book based on the animated show instead of the original black-and-white comics was published throughout the 1990s.

Storyline

The origin story in the 1987 animated series differs greatly from that of the original Mirage Studios comics, presumably to make it more appropriate for a family audience. In this version, Splinter was formerly a human being, an honorable ninja master named Hamato Yoshi. Yoshi was banished from the Foot Clan in Japan after being deceived by the seditious Oroku Saki, who pinned Yoshi's dogi to the wall with a knife, preventing him from kneeling before their sensei, which was seen as an insult. When Yoshi removed the knife, the sensei was again insulted, believing Yoshi was drawing the blade in opposition to him. Exiled from the ninja clan, Hamato Yoshi moved to New York City, where he lived in the sewers. An animated series or cartoon series is a television series produced by means of animation. ...

A sewer is an artificial conduit or system of conduits used to remove sewage (human liquid waste) and to provide drainage. ...

While living in the sewers with the rats as his friends, Yoshi one day found four turtles, recently bought from a pet store by an unnamed boy who accidentally dropped them in the sewer. Yoshi returned one day from his explorations around New York to find the turtles covered with a strange glowing ooze. The substance caused the turtles - most recently exposed to Yoshi - to become humanoid, while Yoshi - most recently exposed to sewer rats - became a humanoid rat, and started going by the pseudonym "Splinter". This, and the following Archie TMNT Adventures Comics, is the only origin story in the TMNT franchise where the Turtles come to Yoshi before being exposed to mutagen. Also, it differs from other version in that Splinter is Hamato Yoshi and becomes a rat, whereas in most other versions, he is Yoshi's pet rat that becomes humanoid. This is also the only version in which the Turtles become fully grown immediately after exposure to the mutagen, where Splinter raises them from infancy in other versions. Species 50 species; see text *Several subfamilies of Muroids include animals called rats. ...

Yoshi adopts the four turtles as his sons and trains them in the art of ninjitsu. He names them after his favorite Italian renaissance artists: Leonardo da Vinci, Donato di Niccolò di Betto Bardi (Donatello), Raffaello Sanzio (Raphael), and Michaelangelo Buonarroti. In most versions, the Turtles tend to go by nicknames Leo, Donnie, Raph and Mikey, but in this version they are always addressed by their full name: Leonardo, Donatello, Raphael and Michelangelo. Each Ninja Turtle wears a mask over his eyes with a distinctive color, and is trained in the art of a distinct weapon. Image File history File links Leonardo_1987. ...

Meanwhile, Oroku Saki has left Japan and tracked Yoshi to New York City, where he intends to destroy him once and for all. He has become associated with Krang, a disembodied alien brain who has been banished from his home, Dimension X, where he was a great warlord. Saki has taken on a new persona, donning a suit covered with razor spikes, complimented by a long cape, and a metal mask over his mouth. He has also taken on the pseudonym "The Shredder".

It becomes clear in the first season that the mutagen that transformed the Turtles and Splinter into their new forms was dumped into the sewer by Shredder in an effort to destroy Yoshi. Shredder thought it was a deadly poison. The Turtles vow to take revenge on the Shredder for dishonoring their master, as well as turning him into a rat. The Turtles want to force him to turn Splinter back into a human again. This quickly evolves into stopping Shredder's ongoing criminal career. The Turtles quickly take on the role of vigilante crime-fighters operating outside of the jurisdiction of law enforcement against any criminals, much like Casey Jones in the third season. For the first couple of seasons, it seems as if the Turtles are constantly preoccupied with hiding their existence. This seems to be slowly relaxed and, by the last few seasons, most citizens seemed to be well aware of them. Arnold Casey Jones is a character from the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series. ...

Shredder, Krang, Bebop and Rocksteady (two street thugs morphed into animal form by exposure to the Shredder's mutagen) and a small army of robotic Foot Soldiers try to destroy the Turtles and take over the World. Much of their quest for world domination hinges on bringing the Technodrome (Krang's mobile fortress, and his and The Shredder's base of operation) to the surface as it was either stuck in the earth's core, Dimension X, the arctic or Arctic Ocean.

In the last two seasons of the show, the Turtles finally banish The Shredder and Krang to Dimension X. They destroy the engines and the "trans-dimensional portal" of the Technodrome preventing them from ever returning to Earth. The show, which had already lasted well past the average lifespan of most Saturday morning cartoon series, then went through dramatic changes. The animation became darker and closer to the original comic book style, the color of the sky in each episode changed from the traditional blue to a continuous and ominous dark red sky (which was commonplace with newer action-oriented children's programming at that time), and the theme song was changed.

Impact

While the story diverged heavily from the original conception of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and has never been considered canon with the universe of the original Mirage comics, the 1987 TV series is probably the most notable and popular incarnation, and drove the franchise to the phenomenal status it would achieve in pop culture. The series was in production for nine years, and was still quite popular when it went out of production. It was responsible for introducing many of the catch phrases associated with the Turtles, such as "Cowabunga!", "Turtles fight with honor!" and "Turtle Power!", into our lexicon. The animated series was such a prominent part of the Ninja Turtles that many people consider it the definitive version.

Soundtrack

This version is also renowned for its critically acclaimed soundtrack. Through most of the series, the episodes featured a background music which reflected the mood of the situation (e.g. danger, action, exploration, confusion, mystery, winning), as well as ID music for settings such as the Technodrome, the sewers, Channel 6, etc. which contributes to the show's dynamic uniqueness. The soundtrack was composed by Chuck Lorre and Dennis Challen Brown (Credited as D.C. Brown and later as Dennis C. Brown). In film formats, the soundtrack is the physical area of the film which records the synchronized sound. ...

  Shredder as seen in the opening credits
  The Arch-villain of the Turtles and Splinter. The Shredder wears a suit covered in metal blades, a cape, and a metal helmet and mask. He typically has the bottom half of his face covered. While a rare occurrence, he has removed the mask and helmet to reveal his face. Despite the fact that the Shredder is usually the main villain in other incarnations, Shredder here has always, against his own will, had to take orders from Krang. Voiced by James Avery but replaced in the 1994–1996 seasons by William Martin, along with the alternates Dorian Harewood in 1989, Jim Cummings in 1991, and Townsend Coleman in 1993. In the 1987's series he conquered the earth in a alternative universe (Shredderville) but gained nothing but a nervous breakdown. (Ironically in the later series there was a alternative universe where Splinter is the evil overlord conqueror of the earth.)

• Krang: A disembodied brain who was a warlord in Dimension X before he was exiled and had his body taken away. Krang usually resides inside a large robot body and controls it from a compartment in the abdomen area, or uses a "bubble walker". He also commands the Technodrome, an enormous mobile fortress used as his and Shredder's headquarters. He also funds and helps plan most of Shredder's schemes. The character Krang was inspired by the original comics' "Utroms", who were also small, squishy aliens, but by contrast, did good deeds on Earth. Voiced by Pat Fraley. In some episodes in season 3 he was voiced by Townsend Coleman.

• Bebop and Rocksteady: Formerly New York City street gang members, they were mutated by the Shredder to act as his personal henchmen. A warthog and a rhinoceros, respectively, they are clumsy, oafish, and almost always totally unsuited for the task of fighting the Turtles. Bebop was voiced by Barry Gordon, and Rocksteady was by Cam Clarke.

• Foot Soldiers: The ninjas led by the Shredder. In the 1987 animated series, most Foot Soldiers are robots.

• Rock Soldiers: Krang's soldiers in Dimension X. Sometimes work alongside the Foot Soldiers.

• Irma Langinstein: A Channel 6 TV associate and April's bespectacled best friend, who also works as the front door secretary. Irma is preoccupied with men, but is also a friend to the TMNT from late season 2. Voiced by Jennifer Darling.

• Vernon Fenwick: An egotistical, self-righteous coward who is also a reporter at Channel 6 and is April's chief rival. He dislikes the Turtles and generally reports negative stories blaming them for various things in the city. At various points in the series, he is portrayed as an analogous to Geraldo Rivera. Voiced by Peter Reneday.

• Burne Thompson: Channel 6 NEWS producer and April, Vernon, and Irma's boss. He dislikes the Turtles and blames them for everything that goes wrong and encourages his reporters to broadcast negative stories about them, similar to J. Jonah Jameson from Spider-Man. Burne was voiced by Pat Fraley.

• Carter: Introduced in season nine, he comes to New York to study martial arts under Splinter. He is accidentally exposed to the Turtles' Mutagen, which causes him to spontaneously mutate between his human and mutant forms, and Carter was able to help the turtles throughout Seasons Nine and Ten against Dregg. During Season Ten, although Carter wanted to return to College and was prepared to leave after Donatello is able to stabilize his mutation, he learns from April that the Turtles were in trouble from Dregg, Krang, and Shredder. While assisting the Turtles and their past selves that were transported from the past by their friends from the future Landor and Merrick, Carter found that he could still mutate. After the battle in the episode "Turtles to the Second Power", Carter accepts Landor and Merrick's offer to travel with them to the future so he can be fully cured of his mutation. Carter is voiced by Bumper Robinson.

• Lord Dregg: In the eighth season's last episode, "Turtle Trek", Krang, Shredder, Bebop, and Rocksteady are trapped in Dimension X and the Technodrome is rendered inoperable. In the ninth season, the alien Lord Dregg is introduced as the Turtles' new main adversary. The character was disliked by fans for many reasons, one being the fact that his personality and name were very similar to that of Lord Zedd from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. Lord Dregg was voiced by the late Tony Jay.

• HiTech: He used to be Lord Dregg's right-hand man until season ten where he was betrayed by Dregg himself. In season nine HiTech was voiced by Rob Paulsen. And in season ten he was voiced by Cam Clarke.

• Mung: He becomes Lord Dregg's right-hand man in "The Return Of Dregg" until the end of the series run, replacing his former right hand man, HiTech. Mung was voiced by Cam Clarke.

• TechnoGangsters: Lord Dregg's foot soldiers.

Recurring characters

This is a far from complete list of recurring characters, or characters that played a substantial role in the plots of more than one episode. The characters are arranged by frequency of appearance. A recurring character is a fictional character, usually in a prime time TV series, who is not a main character, but appears from time to time during the series run. ...

• Casey Jones: A vigilante, and also a friend of the Turtles. Casey wears an ice hockey goaltender's mask (which is never removed in the series) and carries a wide assortment of unorthodox weapons including golf clubs, baseball bats, and cricket bats. The Casey Jones character also appears in most other incarnations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, one of the few characters that does. Compared to his other incarnations, this version parodies a Dirty Harry like persona and is quite the psychopath. His trademark tagline..."All I wanna know is when do I get to break something?!". Voiced by Pat Fraley.

• Dr. Baxter Stockman: A Caucasian (as opposed to African-American in the Mirage comics) mad scientist who aided Shredder in the first and second seasons before he was changed into an anthropomorphic fly in a disintegrator malfunction. He always blamed and resented Shredder for the accident, and most of his subsequent appearances involved his ambitions for revenge, or transformation back to his human self. He spent large portions of the series trapped in a rift between Dimension X, Earth with only his computer, "Z", as a companion. Baxter Stockman is also a character that appears in most other incarnations of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, but this is the only one where he is turned into a fly. He was voiced by Pat Fraley.

• The Rat King: A human inhabitant of the sewers with the ability to communicate with rats. He also hypnotized Splinter to attack the Turtles. Extremely unusual for this series (which is typically morally absolute), his role of either good guy or bad guy is sometimes blurry. While he is sometimes involved in some plot to destroy the Turtles, he also occasionally aids them. However, no matter what the circumstances, his motives always seem questionable and surreptitious. Was once one of Shredder's Rogues. The Rat King was voiced by Townsend Coleman.

• Leatherhead: A mutated anthropomorphic crocodile with a Cajun accent. In some plots, he is the main adversary of the Punk Frogs. In season 4, he joined forces with The Rat King. Leatherhead is known for his many catchphrases at the end of his sentences, which include; “by gumbo”, “I guarantee” and “you betcha”. Was once one of Shredder's Rogues. Leatherhead was voiced by Jim Cummings.

• Usagi Yojimbo: A Samurai rabbit from another universe's 16th century Edo Period Japan where animals are the dominant species, not humans. Usagi Yojimbo is a comic book series created by Stan Sakai starring a ronin rabbit, Miyamoto Usagi; apparently the TV show writers did not understand the distinction and misnamed the character after the comic book. He was voiced by Townsend Coleman.

• General Traag: General of Krang's army of Rock Soldiers from Dimension X. Many plots involve Krang almost bringing them to Earth, but failing miserably in the end. He was voiced by Peter Renaday.

• Slash, the Evil Turtle from Dimension X: Bebop's pet turtle, whom Bebop and Rocksteady mutate into an anthropomorphic with the intention of having him be their subordinate and do their work for them. The bad guys send him after the Turtles, but it turns out that Slash is even dumber than Bebop and Rocksteady. He returns in a later episode with a vastly enhanced intellect, but it doesn't last. Was once one of Shredder's Rogues. Slash was first voiced by Pat Fraley.

• The Punk Frogs: The Turtles' frog counterparts. Four anthropomorphized frogs from Florida created by Shredder and trained in martial arts. They were intended for evil, but convinced to turn to good by the Turtles when the Turtles saved them from the authorities. The Punk Frogs lived out the rest of the series in the swamps of Florida, but sometimes they returned to town and visited the Turtles. Shredder named them after historic villains compared to Splinter's choice of naming his pupils after painters.
  • Attila the Frog: Named after Attila the Hun, he is armed with a mace. He was voiced by Cam Clarke.
  • Genghis Frog: Named after Genghis Khan, he is armed with an axe. He was voiced by Jim Cummings.
  • Napoleon Bonafrog: Named after Napoleon Bonaparte, he is armed with a whip. He was voiced by Pat Fraley.
  • Rasputin the Mad Frog: Named after Rasputin the Mad Monk, he is armed with a bow and arrow. He was voiced by Cam Clarke.

• Neutrinos: 1950s-college-kid type people in flying cars called Starmobiles (complete with tailfins), from Dimension X. Their names are Dask, Kala, and Zak. Friendly to the Turtles, they even once left the Turtles one of their Starmobiles, but unfortunately neglected to mention it ran on plutonium. Kala, the lone female of the trio, is often shown to be affectionate to Michelangelo (who likewise has a crush on her), but it never clearly develops into full romantic relationship. In the episode "Four Turtles and a Baby" it is revealed that the TMNT have also met the Neutrinos' leader Zenter and his wife Grizzla who send their baby daughter Tribble to stay with the turtles when the Neutrino capitol is under attack by General Traag. Donatello explains how baby Neutrinos have psychokinetic powers similar to Kala's pet Grybyx.
  • Zak: Zak was voiced by Pat Fraley.
  • Kala: Kala was Michaelangelo's love interest. She was voiced by Tress MacNeille.
  • Dask: Dask was voiced by Thom Pinto.
  • Zenter: Zenter was voiced by Rob Paulsen.
  • Grizzla: Grizzla was voiced by Jennifer Darling.
  • Tribble: Tribble was voiced by Tress MacNeille.

• Zach: An adolescent boy who loves the Turtles and wants to be one. The Turtles refer to him affectionately as "The Fifth Turtle". He is occasionally accompanied by his brother Walt. His only weakness is his feet are very ticklish. Zach was voiced by Rob Paulsen.

• Walt: Zach's big brother. Walt was voiced by Nicholas Omana.

• Lotus Blossom: A female ninja hired by Krang to destroy the Turtles. She developed a respect for Leonardo and tried to get him to become her partner. Lotus was voiced by Renae Jacobs.

• Metalhead: Built by Krang in a plot to destroy the Turtles, Metalhead was a robot Ninja Turtle whose programming consisted of all the Turtles' personalities. Prone to malfunction, he was re-programmed by the Turtles and spent most of the series in Donatello's closet, but made an occasional appearance. Metalhead was voiced by Dorian Harewood (Shredder's alternate voice), Townsend Coleman (Michelangelo's voice), Rob Paulsen (Raphael's voice), Barry Gordon (Donatello's voice), Cam Clarke (Leonardo's voice), Pat Fraley (Krang's voice), and Renae Jacobs (April's voice).

• H.A.V.O.C. (Highly Advanced Variety Of Creatures): The Turtles meet H.A.V.O.C. in the process of thrwarting a robbery, meeting mutants and H.A.V.O.C. members Raptor, Amok, and Overdrive, and then later, the H.A.V.O.C. leader, Titanus. The Turtles find out that while H.A.V.O.C. has offered the Turtles a safe haven from those who think they are the villains, H.A.V.O.C. is actually creating mutants instead of protecting them, and actually tries to turn the entire city into mutants. The Turtles spend a few episodes of season 8 battling H.A.V.O.C.
  • Titanus: Leader of H.A.V.O.C.
  • Raptor
  • Amok
  • Overdrive
  • Highbeam

• Brick Bradley/Bugman: Michaelangelo's comic book hero come to life, Bugman is half man-half-insect. Bugman is a parody of Spider-Man and other comic book superheros. He was transformed into a superhero by a laboratory experiment gone awry, has a secret identity, and he has a vulnerability to the metal Leestanite. He was voiced by Dan Gilvezan.

• Don Turtelli: A local crime boss, and a spoof on the The Godfather. Being the grandson of Tony "The Tickler" Turtelli, he has a memorable form of interrogation; he uses feathers to tickle the feet of his hostages (including April, Vernon, Zach and Caitlyn); to extract information, interrogate, etc. Two known members of his gang are Rodney and Bruce. Voiced by Peter Renaday.

• Hokum Hare: The hare from "The Tortoise and the Hare" fable. The Turtles meet him in a parallel "fairy tale" dimension. He also helped the Turtles to stop Shredder from traveling to the future and becoming a crime lord in a crime-free era. Hokum was voiced by Townsend Coleman.

• Rex-1: An experimental robot built by the New York City authorities to replace human policemen. The Shredder used computer hacking to steal the plans for Rex-1 and build an army of robots. He was voiced by Jack Angel

• Donald J. Lofty: A Donald Trump-esque character who owns Lofty Tower.

Minor characters

The series had myriad minor characters, or characters that were not part of the main cast or involved in the majority of plots. These characters generally went along with the show's theme of anthropomorphic animal fighters often mutated in a way similar to the Turtles. As was the trend with cartoons during the end of the TV era of animation, a considerable number of characters who appeared briefly, once or twice in the series were made into action figures.

Vehicles and gadgetry

Like many cartoon superheroes, the Turtles have a wide array of turtle-themed vehicles and gadgets.

Vehicles

• Turtle Van (aka Party Wagon): A van that originally belonged to Baxter Stockman before he was arrested. Donatello rigged up the van with other equipment from Stockman's lab, including various monitoring devices and missile systems. The Turtle Van, despite having bright yellow and green colors and being very conspicuous, is the Turtles' main form of transportation. April used a van in the third issue of the original Mirage comic. The Battle Shell in the 2003 series is similar to the Turtle Van. It is apparently based on an early Dodge forward-control van, due to its split windshield and engine under the front seats).

• Turtle Blimp: A blimp created by Donatello in the season one finale is one of the Turtles' modes of transportation. The blimp had the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles logo displayed prominently on the side. The glider can detach from the blimp to allow the Turtles better accessibility where a large blimp would be impractical. This vehicle gets destroyed in the red-sky series.

• Cheap Skates: Donatello made four skateboards in season two with propellers on the rear.

• Turtle Bike: A motorcycle with a sidecar, normally ridden by Leonardo, first seen in season three.

• Sewer Tubes

Gadgets

• Turtle Comm: Turtle Communicators (frequently shortened to Turtle Comms) are small and designed to look like turtle shells, and were created by Donatello. The Turtles, Splinter, and April each have one and can instantly communicate with each other. The Turtles' and Splinter's communicators stretch open where April's is built with a flip top to resemble a makeup compact. Zach, a fan of the Turtles, gets a Turtle Comm in the episode The Fifth Turtle. Even the Punk Frogs have a Turtle Comm. Krang, Shredder, and the henchmutants each have a Comlink, a similar device for communication. Similar in function to the Turtle Comm, the Shell Cell in the 2003 cartoon allows the characters to talk to each other.

• Retro catapult: Introduced in Season 3.

Censorship

The censored UK opening sequence.

In the UK, TMNT was released under the name Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles. This was due to the controversy surrounding ninjas and related weapons such as nunchuks at the time. The intro sequence was heavily edited because of this, replacing the words 'ninja' with 'hero' or 'fighting' in the song's lyrics, using a digitally faded logo instead of the animated blob type one and removing any scenes in which Michealangelo wields his nunchuks, replacing them with random clips from the show. Image File history File links The censored opening sequence. ...

In Ireland, the series was initially known as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and the intro sequence was unedited when it debuted with the airing of the second season. After the first two episodes were broadcast, the name was changed to Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles and the intro was edited.

When shown on the BBC, phrases like "Let's kick some shell!" and "Bummer!" were removed from the episodes. The other series, Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation was also referred to as Hero Turtles, possibly using the term 'hero' to separate the TV series from the live action movies. The 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, however, remained intact when shown in the UK and Ireland. This led the UK and Ireland to have a disambiguation between the two animated series, using Hero Turtles to separate the 1987 series from the other incarnations of the franchise. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is an American animated television series set in New York City. ...

TV Tokyo has aired a japanese dub of the series, which features the original theme song with japanese lyrics. Previews for the next episode, however, keeps the original english lyrics to the theme. Also, the japanese dub have added original ending animation and themes. The first ending has the original instrumental theme music play while displaying a still pic of the characters together. This is used for the first 52 episodes before changing to a theme called "Lady Boy", which has the artists of the song dancing to a music video while the turtles watch it on the television, and April, as well as the Shredder's group watching them sing on the monitor. The third ending still uses the theme "Lady Boy", but uses the second US opening animation for the credits.
