Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles vs Global Warming! (W/Pics)

thatchickensite.com — The recipe for a good episode of television is a tricky one to define, until by the purest chance, we happened across it on the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 4 DVD. I guess it had to be somewhere, right? Our ascent into televisual Valhalla begins in the sewers, to show that there's nowhere to go but up...

  • shifty2, on 02/18/2008, -23/+5Turtles in a half shell...

    TURTLE POWER!!
    • Stork1, on 02/18/2008, -2/+26Heroes in a half-shell
      • chris9902, on 02/18/2008, -1/+10Did you get Ninja or Hero?

        We had it renamed in the UK to Hero Turtles. That was so lame.
  • harvinator24, on 02/18/2008, -1/+39Ninja turtles was for sure, the best cartoon of my childhood.
  • nandorocker, on 02/18/2008, -3/+1766 diggs and down...
    • UbIwerks, on 02/18/2008, -0/+5Don't worry, it's probably quicker to just watch the episode than read those two pages.
    • timbo1138, on 02/19/2008, -0/+2Yeah. I'm one of the authors of that review, and we had no clue we'd ever get a traffic spike like that, and hence were woefully unprepared for it. Glad the people who got to read it enjoyed it, though. Once the site's back up, check out some of our other stuff. And hey, digg our podcast, kill that too...
  • Hobbes24, on 02/18/2008, -1/+25i guess even the turtles couldn't stop the digg effect
  • SamPollock, on 02/18/2008, -13/+3I LOVE GLOBAL WARMING!
    IT IS MAKING CANADA SO HOT
    • tbunreal, on 02/18/2008, -3/+3Gah, stop making Canadians look like idiots. But your right Canada is becoming hotter *looks outside at snow mounds 2 metres high*
      • PDG1, on 02/18/2008, -1/+1is it the all caps?
        or the actual comment that made you say that?

        and I've got a buddy who went to Vancouver for a Badminton tourny and he said there was green grass...
        here in Prince it's still white everywhere :(
        • bigbadgoat, on 02/18/2008, -0/+2but it doesnt really ever snow in vancouver, it just rains.
      • MitchAubin, on 02/18/2008, -0/+2Vancouver is in another climate than the rest of canada. It's like comparing the weather in texas and weather in new york. I'm in montreal and here, there's a LOT of snow.

        I'm not sure, but I think this reply is worthless.
      • Ataxia2008, on 02/18/2008, -3/+3Might want to check your spelling there before you call someone an idiot.
        • PleaseJustDie, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1Ataxia is right, tbunreal misspelled "you're"
  • SocialPoison, on 02/18/2008, -2/+2Site's down?

    Bummer man...
  • gametavern, on 02/18/2008, -1/+1This is your family, I am your father!
  • tman84, on 02/18/2008, -1/+1diggnation vs thatchickensite servers
  • petebot, on 02/18/2008, -0/+16I remember being so pissed off that they didn't put Krang in the movies...
    • ccrt6y, on 02/18/2008, -1/+1they didn't!!!
    • solid12345, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1I remember I was glad they didn't put him in, especially 15 years later as an adult. The old black-and-white comics with the human foot soldiers and bad-ass Shredder were much better.

  • entrophize, on 02/18/2008, -0/+1Beware the foot clan.
  • americascynic, on 02/18/2008, -3/+2My fiance's 4 year old brother (my fiance is 22) was looking at an old picture book. It was "The Ninja Turtle's Earth Day ABC's" or something along those lines. G, apparently, is for "Green Power Dude!" I got a kick out of it.
  • fratdaddy, on 02/18/2008, -6/+4WE MUST DEFEAT MANBEARPIG!
    • EdgarVerona, on 02/18/2008, -2/+3WE MUST DEFEAT AD-HOMINEM NONSENSE!
    • solid12345, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1Manbearpig, was he affiliated with Merdude, Antrax, Groundchuck, and all the other turtle outcasts made to sell toys?
  • Bologner, on 02/18/2008, -0/+1I blame violent video games for the server crashing.

  • jspania, on 02/18/2008, -1/+19Am I the only one who thought that April was hot?
  • wolfkabal, on 02/18/2008, -0/+4When the evil shredder attacks... the server goes down :(

    Where's Don when you need him..
    • EdgarVerona, on 02/18/2008, -3/+2Aye, he could do a full bar of damage. He couldn't defend himself well from an attack coming at a diagonal angle though.

      Stick with Leo, and get 99 kais on every character before you finish level 2 if you want to beat the Shredder.

      ... what?
  • fancyj, on 02/18/2008, -3/+1Raphael was such a jerk.
    • gametavern, on 02/18/2008, -1/+14no, he was cool but rude
      • t0ken, on 02/18/2008, -0/+13Michaelangelo on the other hand was a party dude.
        • Greg2k, on 02/19/2008, -3/+2Michaelangelo was a ***** pothead.
        • kz13, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1... exactly.

          Can we all at least agree that the best thing about the Ninja Turtles was how ***** delicious their pizza always looked? I vividly remember wishing I could have cheesy, drippy cartoon pizza like that.
          • fancyj, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1Yes! I know exactly what you're talking about. They must have been in cahoots with Domino's. TMNT pizza always made my mouth water.
    • merdiesel, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1Raph was always my favorite.
  • AdHaR, on 02/18/2008, -3/+7KAWABANGA!
  • br0wnstar, on 02/18/2008, -0/+8Where's Captain Planet when you need him?

    And that little Mexican kid with the lamest power. "HEART"
    • DeviantDragon, on 02/18/2008, -0/+8I think he was South American or something.
      • Grok22, on 02/18/2008, -5/+3yea, Mexican just like he said.
        • Greg2k, on 02/19/2008, -1/+5If he were Mexican, he would effectively be North American. Geography, people...
      • Doomsan, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1He was from Brazil
    • Supurcell, on 02/18/2008, -0/+3At least he had a pet monkey.
  • wutitang, on 02/18/2008, -0/+5This article makes me want to play some Turtles in Time.
  • groone, on 02/18/2008, -3/+2Ninja turtles don't exist Ninja turtles don't exist Ninja turtles don't exist Ninja turtles don't exist Ninja turtles don't exist ...

  • Curlz31, on 02/18/2008, -7/+2More globalist propaganda.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=4860344067 ...
    • maddla, on 02/19/2008, -1/+3I am watching it now, it has to be one of the worst documentaries I have ever seen. Therefore I must stop watching it.
  • PDG1, on 02/18/2008, -0/+2and... Digg killed it... just as I was on part 2
  • jspania, on 02/18/2008, -1/+5Global Warming? No Problem...
    Press Up(2), Down(2), Left, Right, Left, Right, A, B, Start at the title screen.
  • akashra, on 02/18/2008, -0/+2That may possibly be the only article I've ever read which made me feel like I was on acid, while not actually at the time being on acid.
  • mahela, on 02/18/2008, -0/+1
    Beware the foot clan.
  • scamper22, on 02/18/2008, -0/+0ISP need a better way to handle being dugg or slashdotted...

    Oh I know. They should all team up with google...once the account passes the limit, the ISP adds google adds to the page.
    So the page stays up and they make some dough.

    Patent?

    IT IS MAKING CANADA SO HOT
  • Ubertastic, on 02/19/2008, -0/+2The battle must have registered on the Chuck Norris scale as 500,000, because the server is no longer alive.
  • chnkymnky700, on 02/19/2008, -0/+0I didn't even make an account yet and it got suspended. I need to contact the billing/support department as soon as possible.
  • mwalker05, on 02/19/2008, -0/+2site got shell shocked.
  • camino262, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1I sure did waste a ton of money playing the TMNT arcade games. It was definitely worth it though.
  • blueishraptor, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1"Help I'm a turtle and I can't get up!"
  • timbo1138, on 02/19/2008, -0/+4As one of the slightly shell-shocked (GET IT GET IT?) TRC writers who just watched his site get nuked from orbit by the Digg mothership: thank you. It's extremely flattering and something we never expected. I hope everyone who managed to get to see the review got a laugh from it, and we strongly encourage everyone who missed out to come back later to read it, and check out our other stuff.

    Hugs and kisses,

    The Rubber Chicken
    • razordancer, on 02/19/2008, -1/+1Don't mention it. It was the only way to be sure.
  • caponumen, on 02/19/2008, -0/+1If find the Scared lemming episode more instructive........
  • TRCHappyBob, on 02/19/2008, -0/+0The site's back up.

    As another one of this article's writers, I can happily recommend the rest of ThatChickenSite.com - particularly the podcast - without a hint of bias. And thanks to the nineteen thousand of you who dropped by this morning. Attention is a lovely novelty - if only we could try it more often without our host panicking and suspending the account again.

    Oh, that' s definitely going into the testimonials.
  • XIStEw13IX, on 02/20/2008, -0/+0wow, i just realized how hot april is.
  • Neme5ii5, on 02/27/2008, -0/+1If anyones interested I'm selling my collection of TMNT stuff on Ebay. I saw that crazy ninja turtle fat girl and it ruined my collection.
    Unopened box of Mac&Cheese and unopened Orange juice box.
