Hines In A Half Shell: Saturday Morning TV Show

EPISODE 339 - We take a look at the show that brought huge fame for the Turtle -- the original Saturday morning TV show. Although primarily made as a way to promote the new toy line, the creators of this TV show also wanted it to be good. So there was a lot of thought put into this show. They took a lot of visual designs from the comic, but simplified the story considerable. They added new characters (Rocksteady and BeBop), half-new characters (Krang the talking brain) and gave April a more specific consistent personality. We look at the first five episodes, which is the entire first season and which tell a single story. The story gets complicated, but it's fun and thoughtful and... pretty darn good. Hey, maybe these Turtles are gonna be around for a while. In Loose Screws, we talk about the new season of Stranger Things. Next week we go over the first TMNT live action movie! ------------ Subscribe at screwitpodcasts.com to support the show and to get monthly bonus episodes.
