5While a serious show overall compared to other adaptations, it has plenty of funny moments as seen below.

13[[folder:Season 1]]
14* From the very first episode ''Things Change'':
15** [[HopelessWithTech Splinter and the Shell Cell]].
16** The younger cop is shocked at Donatello giving them the stolen money, to which his older partner just rolls his eyes, as if it was a normal thing! UnusuallyUninterestingSight played straight there.
17* In ''A Better Mousetrap'', Leo and Raph start fighting, but instead of, you know, using ninjutsu moves on each other (or their weapons), they just end up rolling around on the ground wrestling.
18** Also, when the mouser runs by them mid-wrestle, followed by Mikey and Donnie beckoning them to join, apparently either not noticing or not caring that Leo and Raph were on the ground fighting.
19** All the Turtles follow the Mouser and end up nearly falling to their deaths, but Don manages to catch himself on a small pipe using his bō. Leo catches onto his ankles, Raph catches Leo's and Mikey catches Raph's. They are swinging above a swirling whirlpool.
20--->'''Raph:''' Ow! Watch where you point those shuko spikes, Mike!\
21'''Mike:''' ''(Starts swinging back and forth)'' Aw, keep your shell on, Raph! I got an idea.\
22'''Leo:''' [[OhCrap Mike! Wait!]] What are you...!?\
23''(Mike releases Raph and flies through waterfall, followed by his brothers, they land against wall and cling to it)''\
24'''Don:''' Guys, you okay?\
25'''Raph:''' ''(Spits out water)'' [[DeadpanSnarker Peachy.]]
26* In ''Meet Casey Jones'', when Leo, Don and Mike come to help Raph and Casey in the climax:
27-->'''Casey:''' Friends of yours?\
28'''Raph:''' Brothers, actually.\
29'''Casey:''' I can see the [[StrongFamilyResemblance family resemblance]].\
30'''Mike:''' I am the pretty one.
31** In the end of the episode, Raph and Casey mark the beginning of their [[VitriolicBestBuds friendship]] by getting into a fistfight, while Leo, Don and Mike just watch.
32--->'''Leo:''' ''(to Mike)'' [[BlameGame He's your brother.]]\
33'''Mike:''' No no, he's YOUR brother.\
34'''Leo:''' Absolutely YOUR brother.
35* ''Nano'': The Turtles arrive to help April set up her antique store.
36-->'''Michelangelo:''' Hi, April, Green Brothers Movers and Schleppers reporting for duty.\
37'''April:''' Hey, guys, thanks for coming. I need all the help I can get. Mike, you could start by moving those big, heavy boxes.\
38'''Michelangelo:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Just let me put on my hernia truss.]]\
39'''April:''' Right over there, wise guy. Plus, I've got a heater that won't heat.\
40'''Donatello:''' ''[Steps inside with a huge sack slung over his shoulder, and metal pipes in his hand]'' Hence, these.\
41'''April:''' ''[Leo and Raph step inside together]'' You two, that whole wall of antiques needs moving. Carefully.\
42'''[[HairTriggerTemper Raphael]]:''' [[ImADoctorNotAPlaceHolder Hey, I'm a ninja, not a —]]\
43'''Leonardo:''' ''[Interrupting Raph]'' Your wish is our command.\
44''[[[{{Hunk}} Casey Jones]] steps inside and stops]''\
45'''April:''' [[DistractedByTheSexy You're]]... [[CaptainObvious not a turtle.]]\
46'''Casey:''' ''[Awkwardly]'' Uh, definitely not.
47** Casey approaches Raph who is struggling with a china cabinet filled with dishware. They each take a side, lifting it, but the cabinet tilts forward and dishware slides out, shattering on the floor. Right as April tries to warn them about how rare the antique china is. She is understandably angry about it.
48--->'''Casey:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Jeez. Is your friend always so sensitive?]]
49* ''Darkness on the Edge of Town'': Donatello whips out a hand glider to investigate a large area.
50-->'''Don:''' I've been dying to try this puppy.\
51'''Leo:''' You mean you haven't tested it yet?\
52'''Mike:''' [[DumbassHasAPoint Dude, how's he supposed to test a flying machine in the sewers?]]
53** As Don tries to take off, he assures his brothers that it is safe:
54--->'''Don:''' I've worked out all the theoretical aerodynamics. ''(Runs towards the edge of the bridge)'' It's practically ''(Runs and dives off the edge and starts gliding)'' fool-PROOOF! WHOA-HAH-OH!\
55'''Raph:''' [[DeadpanSnarker But is it Don-proof?]]
56* ''The Way of Invisibility'' has Hun interrogating Raph, [[MistakenForAliens thinking he is an alien]].
57-->'''Hun:''' ''(admiring Raph's sai)'' This is some nice steel. How about telling me who gave 'em to you?\
58'''Raph:''' [[YourMom Your momma]].
59** Earlier in the episode, Casey Jones lets himself in the turtles' lair. Master Splinter, who doesn't know him, ends up attacking him, before the turtles introduce the two.
60--->'''Master Splinter:''' Please forgive my rash action.\
61'''Casey:''' ''(groans)'' No problemo.\
62'''Master Splinter:''' Although next time, you would be wise to heed the ancient Japanese proverb: [[DeadpanSnarker "Phone first."]]
63** Also, the way the turtles introduce Casey to Splinter:
64--->'''Don:''' Sensei, this is Casey! The nutcase-- [[VerbalBackspace uh... the guy]] we told you about!
65* During ''Fallen Angel'' after rescuing Angel with Casey and returning her to her grandmother who offers him a slice of pie in gratitude, Mikey wants some. But his brothers drag him off telling him they are ninjas and they live by the shadows never to be seen.
66-->'''Mikey:''' So what kind of pie did you think it was?
67-->[[DopeSlap (SMACK!!)]]
68-->'''Mikey:''' OW!!!
69* ''Notes From the Underground, Part One:''
70** Raphael's crack about Mikey's cowardice.
71--->'''Raph:''' Hey, what do ya' get when ya' cross a turtle and a chicken? ''(pauses)'' Mikey.
72** As the turtles prepare to head underground...
73--->'''Leo:''' All in favor say ‘Aye’.
74--->''(The three oldest turtles clasp hands and say ‘Aye’ together. They look at Mikey.)''
75--->'''Mikey:''' Uh... meep.
76--->'''Leo:''' Close enough.
77** The ApocalypticLog detailing how the Foot kidnapped innocent people, turned them into monsters, and were wiped out by said monsters is terrifying. Michelangelo’s reaction, however, isn’t:
78-->'''Mikey:''' So, there’s always one guy in a monster movie who freaks ‘cause he can’t take the pressure, and I’m gonna do an impression of him right now. And it goes something like this: GET ME OUTTA HEEEERE! ''(Runs)''
79-->'''Raph:''' Not that I’d ever agree with him, but he’s got a point.
80* In ''The Shredder Strikes, Part One'', Leo makes the mistake of thinking his weapons are what make him superior to his brother and Splinter is about to tell Leo why he is wrong. Raph, Don and Mike immediately understand his tone and realize Leo is in trouble, but Mike ends up making the mistake of laughing, which Splinter hears.
81-->'''Splinter:''' Michelangelo!\
82'''Mike:''' ''(Gasp!)''\
83'''Splinter:''' Do you think I am funny?\
84'''Mike:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Um, yeah! I mean sometimes.]] ''(Don facepalms)'' There was that time you told that joke about the ox and the sparrow. It wasn't really a joke, but it was funny and-- ''([[BeQuietNudge gets nudged by Don]])'' I mean, no Master Splinter.
85** Later, the Shredder has a Foot Ninja deliver a message to Leo. It is tied to an arrow which is shot at Leo. Leo manages to cut the arrow and find the note.
86--->'''Leo:''' Okay, it’s not your regular mail. I guess Mikey would call it, ''[does a Mikey impression]'' "airmail".
87* In ''The Shredder Strikes, Part Two'', there's this moment from Splinter when the gang lets Shredder find them:
88-->'''Splinter:''' Remember, my sons, even the mighty oak bends before the raging storm winds.\
89'''Michelangelo:''' Huh?\
90'''Splinter:''' ''[facepalms and sighs]'' Be careful and do not be overconfident!
91* In ''The Unconvincing Turtle Titan'', in the middle of a training session, Michelangelo is doodling himself and his brothers as superheroes, but hides it from them, until Raph snatches it from his hands. Then he and Don start playing keep away as Mikey desperately tries to retrieve his notebook. Then Leo snatches it away and checks it out.
92-->'''Leo:''' Hey, check this out!\
93'''Raph:''' What is that? [[ComicBook/JusticeLeague The Ninjustice League]]?\
94'''Don:''' More like [[ComicBook/FantasticFour The Shelltastic Four]]!\
95'''[[NotSoAboveItAll Leo]]:''' [[ComicBook/LegionOfSuperHeroes The Legion of Sewer-heroes]]!\
96''(The three of them laugh)''\
97'''Mike:''' [[SarcasmMode Well, har dee har!]] Even our level headed leader gets a funny in!
98* In ''Notes From The Underground, Part Two'' while the group is following Quarry off a cliff into a whirlpool, as seen in the above image:
99-->'''Leo:''' Following monsters off a cliff may not be the smartest thing we've ever done.
100-->'''Mikey''' No, but it's definitely the grossest, that thing looks like a gigantic toilet!
101** When the Turtles are fighting Quarry, Stonebiter and Razorfist, at one point, Raph intercepts Stonebiter's attack and saves Mike by kicking the monster away.
102--->'''Raph:''' Watch your back you oddball!\
103'''Mike:''' You just called me odd didn't you? ''[[SkewedPriorities [Stops fighting and starts thinking amidst all the chaos]]]'' I'm not odd, I'm eccentric.\
104''[Don is fighting another mutant and he gets near Mike]''\
105'''Mike:''' ''[Complaining]'' Raph thinks I'm odd.\
106'''Don:''' You're just being sensitive. ''[Continues fighting]''\
107'''Mike:''' [[FromBadToWorse Sensitive? If there's one thing I hate, its when people call me sensitive!]]
108* ''The King'':
109** Leonardo and Raphael were having a heated argument. Finally, April cuts in saying that she doesn't mind they arguing, as long as they don't block the TV. [[MoodWhiplash Leo and Raph sheepishly move while apologizing]].
110** After April pays for and gives Michelangelo and Donatello their Chinese takeout orders.
111--->'''April:''' I feel like I've gone from happily single to mother of four overnight.
112--->'''Splinter:''' Tell me about it.
113* In ''The Shredder Strikes Back, Part One'', during one of the scenes of the Turtles hanging out in April's apartment, we get this exchange while Raph and Donatello are watching TV:
114-->'''Mikey:''' ''(Steps in front of the TV)'' May I have your attention please.
115-->''(Everyone looks at him. He proceeds to cut loose with an extended belch. Raph and Donatello applaud him. At a nearby table, April looks disgusted. Splinter looks somewhere between resigned and amused.)''
116-->'''April:''' Ew...!
117-->'''Splinter:''' ''(To April)'' This is what I live with ''all the time.''
118** Then Don remarks "I can’t believe I just clapped for that."
119** Earlier, when April wakes up and finds the Turtle and Splinter in her living room.
120--->'''April:''' [[DeadpanSnarker I really do have four turtles and a rat sleeping in my living room. I thought I was just having a really bad dream.]]
121** April's reaction to the Turtles [[JabbaTableManners shovelling food into their mouths like wild animals]]:
122--->'''April:''' So, one would think that table manners were a part of their training?\
123'''Splinter:''' [[DeadpanSnarker One would think.]]
124** Don and Raph watching sports:
125--->'''Raph:''' 'Panthers', 'Rams', 'Bears', they even got 'Dolphins'. You'd think they'd have room for something a little more...reptilian.\
126'''Don:''' The 'Turtles'? [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness My friend, unfortunately the lowly turtle has been saddled by society with the stereotype of being velocity challenged.]]\
127'''Raph:''' [[FlatWhat Say what?]]
128** Don, Raph and Mike are asleep, while Mike's hand suddenly falls and smacks him in his own face, startling him, which in turn startles the others.
129--->'''Mike:''' Whoa!\
130''(His brothers jump to their feet, weapons drawn.)''\
131'''Raph:''' What? What is it?\
132'''Mike:''' Ha, ha, ha. Oh man, I slept on my hand and it got numb and hit my face, and I thought somebody slapped me. Don’t you hate that?\
133'''Raph:''' [[SarcasmFailure ...Words fail me.]]
134* For all the drama and intense fighting of ''The Shredder Strikes Back, Part Two'', it ''does'' have quite a few funny moments.
135** We get Mikey, Don, and Raph running into the Foot Elite at separate intervals. [[MoodWhiplash Despite fighting for their lives at the moment, ]] [[RunningGag the turtle in question makes a point of commenting on their]] nice hats, By the time Raph does so, Mikey lampshades it:
136--->'''Raph:''' ''(regarding the Foot Elite)'' Nice hats.
137--->'''Mikey:''' Yeah, we thought so, too.
138--->'''Don:''' Say what you will about the Foot, they do not skimp on the headgear.
139** We get the following one-liner from Mikey when the gang finds an avenue of escape:
140--->'''Mikey:''' Ladies and gentlemen, turtles and rats, ''run,'' do ''not walk,'' to the nearest exit!
141** When the Turtles retreat to a walk-in refrigerator, things go quiet. Mikey wonders if the Foot ninjas retreated, leading to the following exchange:
142--->'''Mikey:''' Kinda quiet out there... you think they all just went home?
143--->'''Raph:''' [[SarcasmMode Yeah, we scared them off by running into a closet and locking the door.]]
144* ''Return to New York, Part One'': [[TemptingFate Mikey thinks he outsmarted a Foot Tech Ninja by taking an elevated platform upwards.]]
145-->'''Foot Tech Ninja''': ''(materializes behind him)'' {{Ahem}}.
146-->'''Mikey''': [[OhCrap Aw, shell.]] ''(gets kicked off the platform)''
147* ''Return to New York, Part Two'':
148** Mikey's incredulous snark about the Shredder clones.
149--->'''Mikey:''' Okay, did Shredder like, wake up one morning and say, [[BriefAccentImitation 'Hey, here's an idea, mutant clones of me: really ugly ones!']]
150** He also briefly taunts a death trap by dancing before one of the sawblades slices part of his headband, forcing him to quickly finish the rest of the course.
151* The Shredder ends up allying with the Turtles to stop Stockman during ''Return to New York, Part III''. But every time they seem to succeed, Stockman just comes back.
152-->'''Leo''': What do we have to do to stop this guy?
153-->'''Shredder''': (''exasperatedly'') I have asked myself that question many times.
154* ''Search For Splinter, Part One'':
155** Donnie complains about [[NoSenseOfPersonalSpace how April and his brothers are watching him work way too close for comfort]]. They apologize and back away. Donnie resumes his work, only for April and his brothers to return watching him closely again a second later.
156** Casey has to distract a receptionist and security at the TCRI building. How does he do this?
157--->'''Casey:''' I got a complaint about one of your products! ''[Slams a toaster on the desk]''
158--->'''Receptionist:''' TCRI doesn't manufacture toasters, sir.
159--->'''Casey:''' Oh yeah?! Says it right here! ''[turns over toaster to reveal sticker labeled "RITC" slapped on it]''
160--->'''Receptionist:''' That says RITC. In CRAYON, sir.
161--->'''Casey:''' NOW I WANNA SEE THE HEAD GEEK, OR I'M GONNA TAKE THIS PLACE APART! ''[Pulls out a baseball bat, smashes the toaster and fighting the security and bashing everything in sight]'' GIVE ME A TOASTER, OR GIVE ME DEATH!
162** The Turtles lure the Guardian by relighting the Foot symbol on Shredder's building and creating a fake Shredder dummy. As the Guardian attacks the dummy (mistaking it for the real thing) he discovers that it was a fake, complete with a [[KickMePrank "Kick Me"]] sign taped to the torso and a bowling ball used as the head.
163* ''Search For Splinter, Part Two'': Utroms bickering.
164--> "Careful with your weapons discharge! We cannot afford to damage the techno-organic equipment in this chamber.
165--> ''(BOOM)''
166--> "What did I ''just say?''"
167--> "Sorry."
168[[/folder]]
169
170[[folder:Season 2]]
171* ''Turtles In Space - Part 1: The Fugitoid'':
172** The Turtles and the Fugitoid are on the run and Raph steals a tank to help them get out of the city fast.
173--->'''Leo:''' Couldn't you have boosted something a little less, I don't know, conspicuous? Something that might blend in better?\
174'''Raph:''' Are you kidding? This puppy's almost invisible, it blends so well.\
175''(They go past a group of parked tanks with soldiers walking around near them, one of the soldiers points at the stolen tank)''\
176'''Soldier:''' Hey! That's my tank! They stole my tank!\
177''(The soldiers leap into their tanks and begin pursuing the stolen tank)''\
178'''Leo:''' [[SarcasmMode Yeah, real invisible.]]\
179''(Raph grins sheepishly)''
180* ''Turtles in Space - Part 5: Triceraton Wars'':
181** The Turtles and the Fugitoid are trying to escape but are surrounded by both the Federation army as well as the Triceraton army.
182--->'''General Blanque:''' You wouldn't be hunting down a certain Fugitoid who recently escaped from your Homeworld, would you?\
183'''Commander Mozar:''' How did you know Honeycutt escaped?\
184'''General Blanque:''' You think we don't get Triceraton gladiators on D'Hoonnib? It's our number one rated show!
185** Leo tries to stall for time as Don and the Fugitoid are working on the transmat device. However, things do not go as planned.
186--->'''Leo:''' We'll give up the Fugitoid for a price.\
187'''Mike:''' We will?\
188'''Leo:''' ''(to Mike)'' I'm trying to [[PigLatin allstay for imetay.]]\
189''(Mike grins and nods)''\
190'''Leo:''' ''(to Mozar and Blanque)'' But first, we'll, uh, need to broker a truce between the Federation and the Triceratons. We want assurances that neither side will use the teleportal technology for destructive purposes.\
191'''Mozar and Blanque:''' [[SpeakInUnison Agreed!]]\
192'''Leo:''' [[DidntSeeThatComing Huh?]]
193** Leo then asks them both to finalize and agreement in writing. This is where both sides start arguing and it eventually devolves in to petty name calling.
194--->'''Blanque:''' Are you accusing us of treachery, lizard?\
195'''Mozar:''' You Federation slime didn't force a hundred and fifty planets under your rule by acting honorably!\
196'''Blanque:''' Well, maybe if you Triceraton buffoons hadn't managed to blow up your own Homeworld, you wouldn't be living on a bunch of floating rock fragments!\
197'''Mozar:''' Hairless ape!\
198'''Blanque:''' Overgrown lizard!\
199''Leonardo and Michelangelo are sitting back and grinning at the argument''\
200'''Michelangelo:''' This is better than a daytime talk show!
201** The Turtles ask the Fugitoid to build his teleportation device and Donatello makes this very unnecessary comment:
202--->'''Leonardo:''' The danger will always exist, whether or not you build the teleportal.\
203'''Donatello''': What's to stop them from ripping apart your robot body and downloading all the data from your brain?\
204'''Prime Leader:''' Slag! Why didn't I think of that?!\
205'''Michaelangelo:''' [[NiceJobBreakingItHero Good one, Don!]]\
206'''Donatello:''' Sorry.
207* These moments that make fun of the original show:
208** ''Secret Origins Part 3'' has a particularly funny bit where April wears a yellow jumpsuit to try and disguise herself as a news reporter. When questioned about it at the end, she responds with, "Yeah, in another lifetime maybe."
209** After putting on the jumpsuit and telling Casey she intends to pose as a TV news reporter, she asks Casey how she looks. Casey responds [[DeadpanSnarker "Great... if you're removing toxic waste."]] This earns him a [[DopeSlap punch from her]].
210** Even more Utrom bickering:
211--->"I hate walking on my tentacles!"
212--->"Oh, shut up, [[MythologyGag Krang]]!"
213** Leo tells April to have the building evacuated as it is about to explode. Still posing as a news reporter, she tries to talk to the military surrounding the building that she received a message about the building about to explode from the terrorist group responsible for it. Unfortunately, she is unable to come up with a name for the terrorist group, so Casey comes up with one: [[CharacterCatchphrase Goongala Cowabunga.]]
214* Mikey spotting the teenage mutant ninja rats (and their terrapin-like sensei) in the sewers during ''Turtles in Space, Part One -- The Fugitoid''.
215-->'''Ninja Rat:''' ''(Subtitles)'' Cowabunga!
216-->'''Mikey:''' Whoa... [[BizarroUniverse Bizarroworld]].
217* The turtles fighting to escape a Triceraton prison in "Turtles in Space, Part 3 -- The Big House" with substitute weapons: Leo with plungers, Raph with spoons, Donnie with a broom, and Mikey with scrubbing brushes. Seeing them fighting with them is funny enough, but some of the scenes with them specifically are hilarious:
218** Raph's the last to get weapons and is not impressed with the two small, dirty spoons Leo produces for him. Leo's cheeky grin just sells it. However, when fighting some guards, Raph enthusiastically leaps forward and exclaims "SPOONS!" at the top of his lungs. Seems he's grown fond of them.
219** Leo forgets what he has in his hands after taking down a few guys and proceeds to kiss his plungers... A beat passes before he gags in disgust at what he just did.
220** At first, all the Triceraton guards laugh at the turtles' makeshift weapons... until one of them gets a plunger to the face.
221* In ''Secret Origins, Part One'', when the turtles and Splinter arrive in feudal Japan, Mikey starts acting like he is fighting a nearby training samurai until Splinter calls him out to be more respectful. After that, Mikey attempts to help himself to the man's food. Of course, as it is just simulated history, the food isn't real as Mikey's hands pass through it. Despite this, he continues to desperately try to pick it up while the others laugh at him.
222-->'''Splinter:''' There is some sort of lesson here. [[DeadpanSnarker But I'm enjoying this too much to think what it is]].
223* In ''Secret Origins, Part Three'':
224** TheReveal of Shredder being an Utrom in this series. Despite this, he still proves to be a vicious little alien monster... up to the very climax, [[ItMakesSenseInContext when he misses the teleport that warps Splinter and the turtles out of the building that was about to implode.]] The [[OhCrap look on his face]] as he realizes that he's [[HoistByHisOwnPetard about to be vaporized by the explosion that he himself set in motion]] is ''priceless!''
225** Raph taunts the Shredder, who latches onto his head in response:
226--->'''Mikey:''' Get it off! Or there's gonna be a tiny little Shredder [[Franchise/{{Alien}} alien]] busting out of Raph's chest! ''(Gets [[DopeSlap Dope Slapped]])'' Ow!
227* ''The Ultimate Ninja'' has Raph watching the news and commenting on it:
228-->'''Raph:''' Argh, I hate watching the news! It's all bad! These gangs out there, banging heads, it really ticks me off!\
229'''Don:''' Raph, ''everything'' ticks you off!\
230'''Raph:''' Not everything. ''([[{{beat}} considers it for a second]])'' All right, everything.
231** Mike is making a lot of noise, annoying Don:
232--->'''Don:''' [[SarcasmMode Hey, Mikey, could you keep it down to only a slightly deafening cacophony?]]\
233'''Mike:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Sorry, bro, we don't have any "caco-phony". But we do have popcorn!]]
234** In the beginning of the episode, Leo is brushing his teeth. When he reaches for a glass of water with which to rinse, he discovers one of April's stockings is draped inside of it.
235--->'''Leo:''' Ugh, huh? [[SarcasmMode Nice.]]
236* Michelangelo's dig at Raphael in ''What a Croc'':
237-->'''Mike:''' Look, I know what I saw! There's a huge ugly reptile in the sewers! [[DeadpanSnarker And for once, it's not you, Raph!]]
238** He then throws his dripping wet towel right on Raph's face.
239* This little exchange from ''The Golden Puck''.
240-->'''Leo:''' It's just a puck, Casey. No one was hurt, that's what's important.
241-->'''Casey:''' Just a puck?! Just a puck?! It's not just a puck! It's the symbol of ice hockey which carries us to the future of...ice hockey! It's like stealing the Empire State Building or...apple pie!
242-->'''Mikey:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint They have apple pie here?]]
243-->'''Casey:''' I gotta get that puck back!
244-->'''Raph:''' Think we should help Casey?
245-->'''Don:''' Getting the Golden Puck back feels more like something for the police to handle.
246-->'''Leo:''' Maybe, but Casey could get hurt.
247-->'''Raph:''' Or worse, Casey might hurt somebody.
248-->'''Mikey:''' Where's the pie? I distinctly heard the word "pie".
249* An understated one comes from the "Rogue in the House" arc, after Don encounters Stockman -- or, rather [[BrainInAJar what's left of him]]. Stockman tries to charge at him from within the jar... ''and Don jumps backwards'', like he had some reason to worry. Aside from the [[TheSmartGuy The Smart Guys]] proving that they're NotSoAboveItAll, the squeak that Stockman makes as he collides with the jar may be what makes the scene.
250** Shredder of all characters cracks a joke at Baxter's expense upon seeing his current status by saying he should've quit while he was [[IncrediblyLamePun ahead]]. To add insult to injury, Shredder then adds an EvilLaugh to punctuate this.
251** Both The Shredder and Don's reactions to Stockman's current state are amusing as well.
252--->'''The Shredder:''' ''This'' is Baxter Stockman? Huh. [[BlackComedy You've lost weight.]]\
253'''Don:''' Stockman, is that you? Man, you've really let yourself go.
254** While reintroducing Baxter, the doctor starts ranting about his [[InsufferableGenius genius]] and in the middle of his rant, Hun turns a dial that lowers the volume, while Stockman continues his rant.
255* When someone attempts to assassinate Leonardo during the Battle Nexus tournament, he uses a makeshift weapon. The makeshift weapon in question? What appears to be The Shredder's helmet. The [[HiddenDepths implications of it]] and Leo throwing it away in disgust are amusing.
256* In ''April's Artifact'', Raphael and Casey accidentally break some of April's things due to Raphael angrily swatting at a fly pestering him. April gets ''pissed'', which scares the two.
257-->'''April:''' You two! Away from the breakables! Garbage duty! NOW!
258-->'''Raph:''' ''(meekly)'' Yes ma'am...
259-->'''Casey:''' ''(meekly)'' Sorry ma'am!
260** April gets waaay into the [[JunglePrincess "Jungle Girl"]] role. When the Turtles and April have to dive into a river and rub mud all over themselves in order to disguise their scent, April rises very dramatically. Leo comments how seriously she is taking the role only to get [[NotSoAboveItAll hit in the face with a blob of mud by her]].
261* ''The Big Brawl, Part One'':
262** When the Turtles arrive at the Battle Nexus, we get this scene:
263--->'''Leo:''' Now where are we?\
264'''Don:''' Definitely not Earth. But if I had to guess, I'd say it's some sort of world between worlds, between dimensions even. A nexus.\
265'''Mike:''' Yeah, you mean like some point of overlapping subspace commonality.\
266''(The other Turtles just stare at Mike)''\
267'''Mike:''' [[DefensiveWhat What?]] Donny's not the only turtle that watches ''Franchise/StarTrek'', you know.
268* ''The Big Brawl, Part Three'':
269** When Mike and Raph both qualify for the finals, they are rather surprised to see that neither Leo nor Don made it.
270--->'''Raph:''' Leo and Donny must be kicking themselves for not making the cut.\
271'''Mike:''' [[BlatantLies But of course, I would never be so]] [[UnsportsmanLikeGloating unsportsman-like]] [[BlatantLies as to rub it in their faces]].\
272'''Raph:''' [[BrutalHonesty I would.]]\
273'''Mike:''' Heh, heh, heh, me too.
274** Raph's total freak out when Mikey beats him.
275** When they return, Mikey gloats one time too many about being winning, inciting Raph to beat the hell out of him.

278[[folder:Season 3]]
279* ''H.A.T.E.'':
280** Casey and April have a serious discussion about their relationship which suddenly gets interrupted by Master Splinter throwing Leonardo at them during sparring.
281*** When April confronts him and Master Splinter about this, asking if they were supposed to be picking apples instead, Leo explains that it was Don who said that not him, but Mikey and Raph mentioned settling a bet. Cue to Mikey and Raph shooting apples on Don’s head. Even funnier, this was the twentieth time doing that.
282** A small moment when Donatello and Raphael search the titular group's base for bombs the high-pitched fear squeak Donny makes when he sees the bomb in question is both hilarious and ADORABLE
283** Casey's mom has ''the best'' ending line:
284--->'''Casey's Mom''': One more thing: you don't have to tell me now, but someday I'd really like to hear the story behind that big rat and the giant turtle.
285** And the [[OhCrap looks]] Splinter and Leo give each other on overhearing this.
286** Donatello unironically yells "Cowabunga" while jumping out of the truck in the climax.
287* The Triceraton invasion gives us a few, not least:
288** When Casey and April are organizing the human prisoners:
289--->'''Casey:''' Alright people, listen up! [[DiscussedTrope No acting like people in an invasion movie,]] 'cuz they always get vaporized! Somebody always gets vaporized. Yo pal! It's probably going to be you! It's like you got a sign on your back that says "Vaporize Me!" (''the other people back away from the guy he's pointing to'')
290** The turtles get quite lucky as they search for an escape ship from the Triceraton Home World:
291--->'''Mikey:''' Hey! This is the Prime Leader's ship. Didn't we steal this once before?
292--->'''Leo:''' And guess what? ''We're stealing it again.''
293** Followed immediately by...
294--->"Prime Leader! The, uh...the...the terrapin creatures have stolen your private space cruiser." ({{Beat}}) "Again."
295--->"WHAT? I just had it detailed!"
296* ''Space Invaders, Part One'':
297** The Turtles rescue an old lady from the Triceratons. She wakes up and sees her rescuers, and she is as freaked out by them as she was by the Triceratons.
298--->'''Old Lady:''' Help! Horrible space creatures! Oh!\
299''(She passes out)''\
300'''Mike:''' I think what she meant was "thanks for the rescue".
301** The Turtles investigates exactly why the Triceratons are invading Earth:
302--->'''Don:''' Judging from the tracking device they're using, the Triceratons followed the transionic residue of the transmat team thinking it was the Fugitoid's teleportal.\
303'''Mike:''' But the Fugitoid's teleportal doesn't work, remember? We built it. It was a dud.\
304'''Raph:''' So LetMeGetThisStraight. The Triceracreeps are after someone who ain't even here, 'cause they want an invention of his that don't even work?\
305'''Leo:''' That about sums it up.
306** Casey and April along with a group of humans are being taken by the Triceratons as prisoners.
307--->'''Raph:''' Let's get ready to kick some shell.\
308'''Leo:''' Hold it, Raph. We're way outnumbered. We need to use our heads.\
309'''Raph:''' Guess that leaves Mikey out.\
310'''Mike:''' You know, if all those people were set free at once, there'd be a lot of confusion.\
311''({{beat}})''\
312'''Raph:''' [[DumbassHasAPoint Mikey had a good idea?]]\
313'''Leo:''' [[BluntYes Mikey had a good idea.]]
314* ''Space Invaders, Part Two'':
315** The Triceratons capture Donatello and bring him to Zanramon:
316--->'''Zanramon:''' [[YouExclamation You!]]\
317'''Don:''' Me?\
318'''Zanramon:''' Finally, I can make you pay for your past crimes. Helping the Fugitoid escape. Abusing my royal personage by holding me hostage! Disgracing our honored warriors, the Triceraton All-Stars! And... and... and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking you stole my personal space cruiser!]]\
319'''Don:''' Did I do all that? [[GentlemanSnarker Hmm. I always was an overachiever!]]
320'''Zanramon:''' ''[[BigShutUp SILENCE!]]''
321** Raph, Leo and Mikey take a Triceraton hostage and demand he pilot his ship so they can go rescue Don, he refuses to fly the ship so Leo asks Mikey to fly the ship, Mikey naturally gets all excited and flies around like crazy causing the Triceraton to go into sheer terror at his crazy flying, after several near-misses the Triceraton finally agrees to pilot the ship.
322* ''Space Invaders, Part Three'':
323** The Triceratons have captured Don and they interrogate him to find the Fugitoid's whereabouts. Then they threaten to destroy New York city, knowing that his brothers would perish if they do so, in order to make him talk.
324--->'''Don:''' Wait! Stop! I'm telling you, the Fugitoid is not on Earth!\
325'''Zanramon:''' And why should we believe you?\
326'''Don:''' Can't you just scan for his positronic energy signature or something?\
327''(Zanramon and Mozar start laughing)''\
328'''Zanramon:''' What kind of fools do you take us for? Positronic energy signatures are as common as space dust.\
329'''Don:''' Not on Earth! Our technology isn't advanced enough.\
330'''Zanramon:''' [[BigWhat What?]] ''(to Mozar)'' Why was I not informed of this?\
331'''Mozar:''' ''(sheepishly)'' Well, naturally, we just assumed.
332* ''Worlds Collide, Part One'':
333** The opening is quite heartfelt, with Professor Honeycutt leaving a video behind for the Utroms, explaining where he has gone. However, he reaches a little hard for his ending line as a robot.
334--->'''Professor Honeycutt:''' For it is as they say: greater love has no robot than this -- that he lay down his RAM for his friends.
335** The reactions the Utroms have to this video are also unintentionally hilarious. They don't look sad or confused -- they look exasperated, like this is something the Professor does regularly and it's starting to get annoying. Mortu even sighs.
336** In the previous arc, the Triceratons were invading Earth because they thought the Fugitoid was there, but Don finally manages to convince them that he was not and they left. This episode starts with the Fugitoid returning to Earth and sending a message to the Triceraton republic, telling them that he is on Earth and that he would like to surrender (he has a plan to end the conflict but the Turtles are not aware of that). Everytime the Turtles try to hide him, he keeps popping out and giving away his location to the Triceratons.
337--->'''Fugitoid:''' Take me to your Prime Leader. Come and get me!\
338'''Mike:''' Don, do something!\
339'''Fugitoid:''' Arrest me, please, I insist!\
340''(Don grasps the Fugitoid's head and [[OffWithHisHead pries it off]])''\
341'''Mike:''' Um, that was kind of extreme.\
342'''Don:''' I panicked!
343** Leo's impression of the Fugitoid:
344--->'''Leo:''' Oh, dear. I'm over here and it's quite, um... extraordinary.
345* [[ComicBook/UsagiYojimbo Usagi]] shows his ComicallySerious chops right after disguising as some Neko Ninja mooks.
346-->'''Leo:''' Phew! Looks like doing the laundry isn't a Neko Ninja skill...
347-->'''Usagi:''' Ugh... Ninja garb... I feel cloaked in dishonor. [[LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain We will speak of this to no one]].
348* Against Lord Hebi the giant snake in "The Real World, Part 1", Leo gets a little too cocky for his own good.
349-->'''Leo:''' I hate to point this out, but you have no arms. This isn't gonna be much of a fight.
350-->''(Hebi proceeds to wrap around him and throw him against a wall)''
351-->'''Leo:''' Note to self: arms are overrated.
352* ''Touch and Go'':
353** Leo and Raph are helping out April in repairing her antique store, ''2nd Time Around''. Casey also helped a bit, but Casey gets all the appreciation.
354--->'''Leo:''' ''(finishing nailing boards up over the broken windows)'' Well, that's got it covered.\
355'''Raph:''' This'll hold till you get it repaired.\
356'''April:''' Thank you so much, Casey. I feel so much better now.\
357'''Casey:''' Aw, you know, anything for you, April.\
358''(April and Casey [[HeldGaze gaze at one another]], Raphael looks over at his brother)''\
359'''Raph:''' Hey, what are we, vegetarian chopped liver?\
360'''Leo:''' Aw, come on, Raph. [[ShipperOnDeck I think it’s time for us to go.]]\
361'''Raph:''' [[DudeWheresMyRespect I did more work than he did, you know!]]
362** Splinter wants Mike to train his body ''and'' mind both.
363--->'''Splinter:''' Focus, Michelangelo. Focus on the task at hand. Ah, my son, [[BrilliantButLazy physically, you have a natural affinity for the martial arts. But mentally, your mind is undisciplined and unruly.]]\
364'''Mike:''' I'm a teenager, Sensei. Undisciplined and unruly is what we do best.\
365'''Splinter:''' You are also a ninja. You must learn to use your mind more and [[MotorMouth your mouth]] less.
366** Michelangelo and Hun's conversation:
367-->'''Michelangelo:''' ''(In a falsetto voice)'' Hello? Room Service!
368-->'''Hun:''' ''(Somewhat confused. Calmly.)'' We placed no order.
369-->'''Michelangelo:''' ''(Still with the falsetto voice)'' Uh, yes, you did!
370-->'''Hun:''' ''(Suddenly enraged) ARGH! GO AWAY! [[PunctuatedForEmphasis WE! PLACED! NO! ORDER!]] (Opens the door).
371-->'''Michelangelo:''' ''(Using his real voice)'' Well, somebody ordered a serious butt-whoopin'!
372* ''Time Travails'': The Turtles' water balloon fight, where Leo cheats, by attacking the other Turtles with a water hose. Then he slips and falls face first, [[OhCrap realizing that the other brothers have surrounded him with their water balloons]].
373* ''Hun on the Run'':
374** The Turtles find out that Hun is reluctantly trying to rescue Karai from Bishop. Leo insists they help Karai. Raph is angry because Hun destroyed his shell cycle, but decides to help him anyway.
375--->'''Raph:''' You know, Bishop? You gotta be about the only guy I hate more than Hun!\
376'''Mike:''' And that’s saying a lot!\
377''(Hun stands up and Raph grabs his arm, tossing the big guy over his shoulder and onto the floor.)''\
378'''Raph:''' ''(to Hun)'' And you owe me a new bike, fatso!
379** Donatello getting a little too distracted by the high tech train car Bishop is using.
380--->'''Don:''' This train car’s amazing.\
381'''Leo:''' Let’s stay focused, Donny.
382** And later:
383--->'''Don:''' Fascinating. I’ve never seen anything so—\
384'''[[BadassInDistress Karai]]:''' Time is of the essence, Donatello.\
385'''Don:''' Uh, right. Sorry.
386** And after the mission ends.
387--->'''Raph:''' I can’t believe I lost my bike!\
388'''Mike:''' Look on the bright side, Raph. You may have lost the shell cycle, but Donny here gained a shiny new train car.\
389'''Don:''' ''(excitedly)'' Can I keep it, Leo?\
390'''Leo:''' If you can figure out a way to get it home.
391* ''The Darkness Within'':
392** The overall episode is very dark and nightmarish. But Michelangelo's reaction to Leonardo's monstrous form is a little funny.
393--->'''Michelangelo:''' Leo? Donny? Raph? Are you guys here?\
394'''Leonardo:''' I'm here, Mike.\
395'''Michelangelo:''' What happened?\
396'''Leonardo:''' The creature got us, but it was merciful. [[WeCanRuleTogether It offered us the chance to join it.]] To serve it. To become like it. I took its offer!\
397''(Leo steps out of the shadow to reveal he now has tentacles where his left arm used to be)''\
398'''Michelangelo:''' Eeww!
399** In the end, it is revealed that the caretaker was [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld C.F. Volpehart all along]] and once the Turtles defeat the monster, he [[ReducedToDust disintegrates into dust.]] Then Mikey walks on the dusty remains.
400--->'''Mike:''' Hey, where's the old dude?\
401'''Angel:''' You're standing on him.\
402'''Mike:''' Eh? ''(Looks down at dust under his feet)'' Eew! Gross, gross, gross!
403* ''Mission of Gravity:''
404** Professor Honeycutt manages to [[BrainUploading upload his brain into Don's device]]. However, there was a problem:
405--->'''Don:''' So you were the one making those calls to my shell-cell. And the download? That was you sending your memory core into my palmtop.\
406'''Professor Honeycutt:''' Well, most of it. Your hard drive was lacking capacity so I had to forego some nonessential information.\
407''(Mike grabs the palmtop)''\
408'''Mike:''' Who cares, Professor! I’m just so happy to see you!\
409'''Professor Honeycutt:''' I'm sorry. Do I know you?\
410'''Mike:''' Michelangelo! Mikey? The Mikester? [[ButtMonkey Wait, so I’m nonessential information?]]
411* The only comedic moment of "Same As It Never Was" is when the group is telling Donnie why they won't stand a chance taking down the Shredder due to the vast legions at his command. Stockman also pipes up about what they'll face if they even get to the Shredder, since his newest exo-suit is just that powerful.
412-->'''Stockman:''' I should know, I designed it.
413** Stockman maintained [[DeadpanSnarker his sense of humor]] even in the BadFuture. Bear in mind, Stockman is a BrainInAJar attached to a wheelchair bound Hun at this point.
414--->'''Hun:''' This life is worse. I wish I'd been put out of my misery.\
415'''Stockman:''' [[ServileSnarker And I wish that you have been put out of my misery, you miserable misanthrope!]]
416* "The Real World Pt 2" has one if taken out of context. When Mikey, Raph, and Donnie reunite, Donnie decides to hug both of his brothers, exclaiming that Raph's alive and Mikey has both arms.[[labelnote:For Context]]Donatello's episode "Same as it Never Was" consisted of a BadFuture that ends with everyone but April dead, and Mikey had lost one of his arms.[[/labelnote]]
417-->'''Michelangelo:''' Good to see you too, Donnie! I think...
418* "Exodus Pt 2" has Chaplin realize his master is a Utrom and is giddy about the revelation. The entire time Chaplin talks, Shedder has a look that just screams “Just shut up already Chaplin.”
419[[/folder]]
420
421[[folder:Season 4]]
422* In ''Cousin Sid'', Casey gets a cocky gang leader to back down by pointing a gun at his prized car.
423** The climactic fight between Casey and Sid involves Casey casually {{dope slap}}ping Sid and reminding him how he has never won a fight against Casey ever.
424* ''Aliens Among Us'':
425** The Turtles dodge government security agents stationed around the rooftops in hopes of catching a glimpse of the President's speech. Leo thinks it is a bad idea and Raph tells him to think of it as stealth training.
426-->'''Leo:''' There's Secret Service everywhere. We never should have come here.\
427'''Don:''' Come on, Leo, the President's only in town one day. This is an important speech. It could determine the future of space exploration for years to come.\
428'''Leo:''' Yeah, and it's at the United Nations. And it's the President of the United States. We might as well just check into a lab and ask to be dissected.\
429'''Raph:''' Chill, Leo. Just think of it as stealth training. After all, the Secret Service is supposed to be the best of the best. ''I'' should be a Secret Service Agent.\
430'''Mike:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Yeah, I hear they’re looking for short, green agents. They really blend in.]] ''([[DopeSlap Raphael whacks him on the head]])'' Ow! Hey!\
431'''Don:''' You so asked for that one.
432** Raphael's reaction to Bishop's "[[EasilyThwartedAlienInvasion aliens]]" attacking.
433-->'''Raph:''' [[SarcasmMode "Woooow, an alien invasion! You don't see that every day!"]] ''[{{Beat}}]'' [[DeadpanSnarker "Oh wait, ]][[SeenItAll yes we do."]]
434* Mikey has been shirking his training (and bragging about being the Battle Nexus Champion)... right when [[SdrawkcabName Kluh]] challenges him to a [[CallBack rematch]]. He freaks out and tries to get the others to help him train, resulting in:
435-->'''Mikey:''' Master Splinter! You'll help me, right? You'll train me?
436-->'''Splinter:''' Training, Michelangelo? Surely, there are comic books I could be reading, or perhaps I could go watch television instead. Ah, wait, my son, I know! Perhaps instead of training, I will go eat pizza! Yes, pizza sounds very appetizing right now. With pepperoni! And karma!
437** Mikey brings up being the Battle Nexus Champion for the umpteenth time, prompting one of the other turtles to comment that he's surprised that Mikey doesn't wear the trophy around his neck. He replies that he tried to, but the chain kept breaking.
438* ''A Wing and a Prayer'':
439** Raptarr and Mephos, two [[WingedHumanoid avians]] are fighting in front of the Turtles. While Don and Mike want to help the good guy, they are not sure which one is the good one. Leo, who is going through [[ShellShockedVeteran some]] [[KnightTemplar issues]], has started behaving more and more like Raph at this point:
440--->'''Don:''' So, who do we help?\
441'''Mephos:''' [[AGodAmI We're gods among insects]]. You always refuse to see that.\
442'''Mike:''' That guy certainly doesn't sound too friendly.\
443'''[[SpeakInUnison Leo and Raph]]:''' Maybe we should take them both out.\
444'''Mike:''' [[LampshadeHanging Man, one turtle with 'tude was bad enough.]]
445* ''Outbreak'':
446** Don is [[DumpsterDive dumpster diving]] for various computer parts that he needs for the new lair. Unfortunately, he is making too much noise.
447--->'''Raph:''' [[SarcasmMode Hey, Don, make a little more noise, why don't ya? I don't think they can hear ya in Jersey.]]\
448'''Don:''' [[LetsSeeYouDoBetter Do you wanna get in here and find me a salvageable transmitter? Please, be my guest.]]\
449'''Raph:''' Ohhh, someone's cranky.\
450'''Don:''' Cranky? Do you know how much work I put into the old lair?\
451'''Mike:''' I know how you feel, Don. I lost my entire comic book collection.\
452'''Don:''' [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Comic books?]] I had specimens, schematics, all my notes. All the theories April and I were working on—
453** The Turtles face a giant mutant humanoid cockroach and they find out that it can talk.
454--->'''Minnetonka Mutant:''' Errgh, splicing kit. Bring a splicing kit. Ergh, ahh!\
455'''Mike:''' Please tell me that thing didn't just talk.\
456'''Don:''' It's intelligent.\
457'''Raph:''' Mikey talks. [[TakeThat We don't call him intelligent.]]
458* ''Adventures in Turtle Sitting:'' Quite a dark episode but it has its moments of levity.
459** April is getting ready for a date with Casey and she dresses up like a typical biker, believing that is what Casey would want. Casey on the other hand, arrives all [[SharpDressedMan suited up]], [[PoorCommunicationKills believing that is what April would want]].
460** Don is going through secondary mutation and in his mutated form, he starts attacking April and Casey. At one point, he grabs Casey and April saves him by smacking monster Don across the face with a broom.
461--->'''April:''' This is crazy!\
462'''Casey:''' What do we do?\
463'''April:''' It's Don right? Try talking to him!\
464'''Casey:''' "Talk to him?" Are you nuts? He's a freaking savage monster and you just whacked him in the face with a broom!\
465''(April has a look on her face that suggests she just realized what she had done earlier)''
466* After Donatello has recovered from his bout of Outbreak Mutation, Mikey goes on a dramatic rant about how gross and scary Donnie had been, concluding with:
467--> '''Mikey:''' (''accusatory'') You tried to eat my leg!
468** Leo decides that they need to get out of the lair, and go roof-hopping. While out, Mikey decides to check if Don's really okay the only way he knows how;
469-->'''Mikey:''' Are we sure Donnie's all better? ''(Dramatic)'' See the full moon, Donnie? Do you feel the monster inside? ''(Starts MilkingTheGiantCow)'' The monster taking control?! Mwahahahaha!\
470'''Don:''' ''(Just as dramatic)'' Oh no! I'm changing! Rawr!\
471''(Don proceeds to play-chase Mikey around the roof)''\
472'''Mikey:''' ''(Falsetto)'' Ahh! Help me! Help! He's trying to eat my leg again!
473[[/folder]]
474
475[[folder:Season 5 (Ninja Tribunal)]]
476* "Lap of the Gods": The acolytes (the Turtles and their current allies) start climbing up the mountain by a huge dragon shaped staircase, each carrying a heavy pack on their back. While [[BigBrotherBully Raph]] and [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling Mike]] bicker.
477-->'''Raph:''' What did they pack these things with, bricks?\
478'''Mike:''' [[DeadpanSnarker No, bro, that's just your head.]]\
479'''Raph:''' Keep yapping, Mikey. Soon as we get to the top—\
480'''Adam:''' Sheesh, they always this way to each other?\
481'''Leo:''' No, [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling usually they're a lot more annoying.]]
482* ''Legend of the 5 Dragons'': The episode begins at the Monastery, in the bedroom shared by the turtles, Splinter and the Ancient One. Michelangelo rolls around on his mat and then finally sits up.
483-->'''Michelangelo:''' Ah, I can't sleep.\
484''(His brothers sit up and Donatello yawns)''\
485'''Donatello:''' Me neither.\
486'''Raphael:''' Shh. You'll wake the old guys.\
487''(Splinter and the Ancient One are meditating)''\
488'''Leonardo:''' They're not sleeping, they're meditating. There's a difference, Raph.\
489'''Raphael:''' Not in my book.
490** The Ancient One's backhanded compliment to the Turtles.
491--->'''Splinter:''' My apologies, Ancient One, but the Ninja Tribunal troubles me more each day. I cannot allow their foolish judgment to cost me my family. Not again.\
492'''Ancient One:''' Your sons are capable, sort of.\
493'''Michelangelo:''' [[ImStandingRightHere Um, hello, we’re like five feet away. How about showing a little tact?]]
494* "Beginning of the End" starts with Michelangelo standing on the bow of the Ninja Tribunal's ship:
495-->'''Mikey:''' [[Film/{{Titanic1997}} I'm king of the world!]]\
496''(Lightning flashes, scaring Mikey and causing him to jump into Tora's arms)''\
497'''Mikey:''' Heh heh, at least there are no icebergs out here, right, Tora-san?\
498'''Tora:''' I hope I never learn to understand you, Mikey-san. ''(Drops him)''
499
500* In "Membership Drive", Stockman's umpteenth experiment goes horribly wrong when the revived Nano escapes. Bishop, despite not willing to stoop to Ch'Rell's lows, has this to say:
501-->'''Bishop:''' Dr. Stockman, I'm beginning to understand why your former employer kept relieving you of body parts.
502[[/folder]]
503
504[[folder:Season 6 (Fast Forward)]]
505* Cody being flustered in "Playtime's Over" when Starlee turns the trip to the mall into a date for them. He tries to ask the Turtles to help him get out of it once she's off the phone, but they ''and'' Splinter refuse, eager to [[ShipperOnDeck see it happen]].
506-->'''Starlee:''' It's a date. We'll do lunch while the guys do the ultra-consumer thing. Bye! (''hangs up'')\
507'''Cody:''' ''Date?!?'' I can't! I'm working on a... a thing! I uh... uh...\
508'''Serling:''' Enjoy, Master Cody! I'll think of you while scraping turtle fung off the good China... by hand! ... Alone!\
509'''Raph:''' ''Smooth'' one, kid! [[SarcasmMode Using poor, helpless Mikey]] to score a lunch date!\
510'''Donnie:''' And a free pass to show us Level-X without Serling! Clever.\
511'''Cody:''' But I didn't! I-I'm in the middle of something! Uh- extra training! Master Splinter thinks-\
512'''Splinter:''' -thinks that a life without balance is hardly worth living.\
513'''Cody:''' But how is a date balance?\
514'''Splinter:''' You must trust me on this, Cody-''san''.\
515'''Cody:''' Aw, ''drek''. Let's go.
516** Later, when the Turtles have to go after the Street Phantoms, Leo takes the time to tell Cody to stay with Starlee and specifically mentions that they'll be back before they [[ShipperOnDeck finish lunch]], after Cody tried to avoid her earlier. Cody again tries to protest, but Starlee wraps her arm around his and giggles while batting her eyes at him, and he resignedly accepts.
517** At the end of the episode, Starlee comes to the penthouse using Cody's [[FullNameUltimatum full name]] as she confronts him for seemingly ditching her during their date. But she's actually there to gush over the Turtle-X armor and how he went to save his friends.
518* In "Clash of the Turtle Titans", Mike greatly exaggerates the stories of his adventures as the Turtle Titan, then defends it by saying " All good stories need a teeny bit of embellishing here and there". Naturally, his brothers mock him for that.
519-->'''Leo:''' ... And then, the Turtle Titan invented the telephone, after ridding the world of all known diseases.\
520'''Raph:''' Yeah, and after that the Turtle Titan single-handedly clobbered all the Nazis in World War II.\
521'''Don:''' Right. And then he explained the theory of relativity to Albert Einstein.\
522''(They all laugh)''\
523'''Mike:''' Sheesh. A guy adds a few tiny little details to an otherwise true story and suddenly [[NeverLiveItDown he's branded for life.]]
524* In "Fly me to the Moon", Mike uses the Transcendental lathe to create an unflattering, comically exaggerated caricature puppet of Raphael and uses it to annoy him.
525-->'''Mike:''' See? A perfect likeness! ''[Sticks the puppet in Raphael's face and makes its mouth move]'' Hi, I'm Raphael. [[BorrowedCatchphrase I hate the future.]]
526** When the Turtles defy Darius Dunn and take Cody to the moon with them, Mike uses the Raph puppet to give Darius Dunn a [[TakeThatKiss goodbye kiss]]. Needless to say he is not amused.
527--->'''Mike:''' ''(as puppet-Raph)'' We'll bring you some green cheese. Ciao.\
528''(makes the Raph puppet kiss Darius)''\
529'''Darius:''' ''Bleh! (wipes his mouth and growls)''
530* In "Bad Blood":
531** The battle sequence between the Turtles and their evil clones, the Dark Turtles. The conversations Leo, Raph, Donnie, and Mikey have with their clones while simultaneously fighting them was full of humorous dialogue.
532** This exchange between Raph and his evil clone:
533---> '''Dark Raphael:''' (tries to strike Raph) You're one ugly turtle!
534---> '''Raph:''' Whoa, did you just call me ugly, ugly?! You've seen yourself? You look like something a toilet spit up. In fact, all you losers smell like a seawater and kitty litter milkshake!
535** Donnie was throwing punches at his evil clone, but his clone keeps blocking them, mocking his technique. Luckily, he manages to successfully sock him using a tripping kick.
536--->'''Dark Don:''' Donatello. I've longed to meet my twin. [[GeniusBruiser I've studied your timing. You telegraph all your blows. Your technique is painfully obvious.]]\
537'''Don:''' ''(mockingly)'' [[IronicEcho Was]] ''[[IronicEcho that]]'' [[IronicEcho painfully obvious, or just obviously painful?]]
538** When Dark Leo throws Leo across the room, causing him to land in front of Dark Mikey who was trying to fight Mikey. Dark Mikey gets somewhat agitated, feeling that his battle with Mikey is being interfered.
539---> '''Dark Michelangelo:''' Excuse me, I'm fighting my stinkin' doppelganger here. Geez, some people. (throws Leo out of his way)
540** Mikey's battle with Dark Mikey.
541---> '''Dark Mikey:''' I knew you're Michelangelo. They'd said you'd be the stupid-looking one!
542---> '''Mikey:''' Stupid-looking? ME?! Dude, YOU'RE the one with the two-foot tongue hanging out of your mouth. It looks like a big pink booger!
543---> '''Dark Mikey:''' (hits Mikey with one of his clubs) Ooo, It looks like a long five ball!
544---> '''Mikey:''' (lands on the ground)
545---> '''Dark Mikey:''' It's outta here! (laughs manically and dances)
546** During Mikey's battle with Dark Mikey, Mikey remarks that his battle is similar to his favorite comic book, Justice Force. But Dark Mikey sees Justice Force differently which provokes Mikey.
547---> '''Dark Mikey:''' Justice Force? That book sucked eggs!
548---> '''Mikey:''' Justice Force sucked eggs? (growls) BLASPHEMY! (grabs Dark Mikey by his long tongue) YOU'RE NO CLONE OF MINE! (lets go of Dark Mikey's tongue in disgust)
549---> '''Both:''' I/YOU JUST TOUCHED YOUR/MY TONGUE! (groans in disgust)
550** During the Turtle's second battle with their clones (Raph's to be exact):
551---> '''Dark Raph:''' I'm gonna make you not move no more!
552---> '''Raph:''' Please! Just keep your mouth shut while we fight! Your breath is rank! (waves hand in disgust) I mean what do you guys eat anyway? Used baby diapers?
553** The way Mike defeats his clone in their second fight:
554--->'''Mike:''' You know, if you're my clone, that must mean that you have the same weakness as me.\
555'''Dark Mike:''' Huh? A weakness? ''(Grabs Mike)'' What weakness? Tell me!\
556''(Mike bats his arms aside and then hits him with a nunchaku sending Dark Mike smashing into the ground, then into a wall)''\
557'''Mike:''' [[SelfDeprecation Sometimes I can be a bit gullible.]]
558* In "The Journal", the stories grow increasingly fantastic to the point that Splinter admits that he was tired of writing by the time a Foot Mystic randomly appeared to transport Raph and Casey to a tropical island.
559** In a bit of BlackComedy, Donnie learns that he will be reduced to a brain in a jar after a horrible accident in space, but the Utroms save him by placing his body in a Serling unit.
560* ''The Gaminator'' has the Turtles stuck inside a video game where any wrong move would mean instant death, but Mike is enjoying it a bit too much.
561** As the Turtles are stuck inside the game, Mike notices a glitch. Leo mishears Mike.
562--->'''Mike:''' Look, a glitch.\
563'''Leo:''' [[MondegreenGag Beg your]] [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar pardon?]]\
564'''Don:''' No, a glitch. A mistake in the game programming.
565** In the beginning, Mike is so happy to be at the Digi Game convention, he thinks he might be dreaming.
566--->'''Mike:''' Somebody pinch me.\
567''[Raph laughs and reaches for him.]''\
568'''Mike:''' Don't even think about it.
569* In "Enter the Jammerhead", Starlee's mother, upon being reunited with her daughter for the first time in a while, immediately says she's gotten fat. Starlee isn't even surprised, having evidently expected such an insult from the get-go. The way she immediately bites back with an irritated "MOM" is priceless for a character who's usually a level-headed NiceGirl.
570-->'''Starlee's mom:''' (''squeezing Starlee's cheeks'') Let me have a look at my little kabibble. Have you gained weight?\
571'''Starlee:''' '''''[[SuddenlyShouting MOM.]]'''''\
572'''Starlee's mom:''' Oh, you're right. [[ComicallyMissingThePoint We'll talk diet later.]]
573* In ''The Fall of Darius Dunn'', the Turtles face their dark clones once again. Raph and Mike decide to duke it out with each others' clones. Dark Raph is genuinely hurt when Mike insults his looks.
574-->'''Mike:''' [[SarcasmMode You know, much as I hate to admit it, you are better looking than Raph.]]\
575'''Dark Raph:''' [[SarcasmBlind You're kidding. You really think so?]]\
576'''Mike:''' It's called sarcasm, Captain Clueless! Look it up when you come to.
577** At the end of the episode, Darius Dunn angrily insults him, but Dark Mike tells him not to go there.
578--->'''Dunn:''' ''(to Dark Raph)'' Don't threaten me, you hideous…\
579'''Dark Mike:''' I wouldn't go there. [[BrickJoke He's been sensitive about his looks lately.]]
580** As Leo fights Dark Don, Mike sneaks up behind the evil clone.
581--->'''Leo:''' [[LookBehindYou Look out. Behind you!]]\
582''(Mike leaps onto a robotic machine arm right behind Dark Don)''\
583'''Dark Don:''' [[SarcasmMode Ha, ha!]] Nice try, but I'm a clone of [[TheSmartOne the smart one]], remember?\
584''(Mike electorcutes him with one of the manufacturing tools, tasking him out)''\
585'''Leo:''' [[BondOneLiner Yes, yes I do.]]
586* In ''The Cosmic Completist'', the leader of the Inuwashi Gunjin asks the Turtles for help. He notes that as a ProudWarriorRace they do not generally flee or ask for help, but the circumstances are dire at the moment.
587-->'''TheLeader:''' Gunjin do not flee. We do not ask help, but we are the last of our kind. If anything were to happen to my brethren…\
588'''Mike:''' I hear you, birdman. Raph may be a [[{{Jerkass}} pig-headed]] [[JerkJock jock]] with wicked b.o., but we'd crawl through a Triceraton septic system for him if he needed us.\
589'''Raph:''' [[SarcasmMode I can't wait to return the compliment.]]

592[[folder:Season 7 (Back to the Sewer)]]
593* The turtles unknowingly befriending Hun online while playing an MMORPG. When Hun is interrupted by a Purple Dragon, he proudly boasts that he's a gamer and proud of it, effortlessly intimidating his subordinate who wasn't even judging him for it.
594** TheReveal that the Ultimate Gamer was just a little girl.
595* The way Casey Jones screws up his attempt at proposing to April O'Neil.
596-->'''Casey:''' I love you as much as Gretzky loves hockey, April, and I want to play you for the rest of my life. I mean, the rest of your life! I mean, Gretzky's life!
597* In ''Hacking Stockman'', the Cyber Shredder is deeply impressed by Stockman's latest body.
598-->'''Shredder:''' Had I know you were so brilliant, I would've treated you better!\
599'''Stockman:''' (''hopeful'') Really?\
600'''Shredder:''' '''''NO.'''''
601** Stockman is so used to losing his body or body parts that he is fully prepared for it, his latest body being able to lose its' head with no issue.
602** Eventually, the EnemyMine between the Turtles and Stockman requires each Turtle tossing around Stockman's BrainInAJar around like a football.
603-->'''Mikey:''' Raph! Hot potato! ''(Tosses Stockman)''\
604'''Stockman:''' I'll bet Einstein never dealt with distractions like this!
605* ''The Incredible Shrinking Sterling'' has a priceless moment when Sterling is lost in time and lands in the sewers and thinks he's back in the present only to see the toddler turtles mistake him for a toy.
606-->'''Sterling:''' Oh, yuck! The sewers... Oh well, at least I've arrived back to present day.
607-->'''Don:''' Hey, check it out!
608-->'''Mikey:''' Cool, a toy!
609-->'''Sterling:''' [[OhCrap Or maybe not!]]
610* In ''Wedding Bells and Bytes'', Genosuke feels embarrassed that he's the only wedding guest who came without a gift. He tries to take a gift and replace the sender's name with his own. Unfortunately, Genosuke tries to take credit for Hisomi's gift, who immediately picks him up and glares at the rhino.

613[[folder:Video Games]]
614[[AC:First Game]]
615* The final battle with the Turtlebot has Mikey confused by how stubborn it is asking if turtles should be more well mannered and gentlemanly. Don is quick to point out how Raphael proves that not all turtles are like that. All things considered, [[HypocriticalHumor Mikey is also proof]].
616* Upon reaching the laboratory in the "Notes from the Underground" chapter, Mikey compares the damage to that of a fight having broken out between April and Casey.
617* If Mikey is player one, Hun serves as the starting boss for the final chapter. When the turtles reach him, they waste no time making fun of him, infuriating him.
618-->'''Mikey:''' Aw. Now he's angry. It's all your fault, Raph.\
619'''Raph:''' What? You're the one who called him Bigfoot. Remember?
620
621[[AC:Battle Nexus]]
622* Occassionally, Mikey will let out a cowabunga before remembering he isn't allowed to say that anymore.
623* Mikey also says "eat feet" incessantly whenever he does his helicopter move.
624* If Mikey is responsible for a mission failed, he will sometimes try to pin the blame on Raph.
625* The player can pick up and throw enemies small enough ''right'' off a cliff, or even jump off the cliff while carrying them.
626
627[[AC:Mutant Melee]]
628* One of Shredder's victory quotes in Adventure Mode even goes as far as to break the fourth wall.
629-->'''The Shredder:''' I am the Shredder! I am number one! I am never number two... wait, who wrote this?
630** He gets incredibly cocky for this next one.
631-->'''The Shredder:''' Yes! I am victorious! I am the winner! I am ''the Shredder!'' Who's the man? WHO'S THE MAN? Who's your daddy?
632* ''The entire "Extras" content.'' Notable examples include:
633** Donatello makes a very nerdy joke and gets a very unexpected result.
634--->''(Don is fighting Foot Ninjas)''\
635'''Don:''' An amoeba has more brain matter than these punks!\
636''(A random Foot Ninja [[ActuallyPrettyFunny starts laughing at the joke]] while Don facepalms)''
637** This moment as the Shredder fights one of the Turtles:
638--->'''The Shredder:''' ''([[NeckLift Holding Mikey by his throat in mid-air]])'' I am the Shredder! [[BadassBoast No one can defeat me]]... ''(Cell phone rings)'' Hold on. ''(Drops Mikey and answers the phone)'' Hello?... I told you never to call me while I'm working!... Alright... quart of milk... dozen eggs... Yes... Yes I will!... YES!... [[EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas Love you too, mom.]]
639*** That's right: [[ItMakesAsMuchSenseInContext a ruthless alien conqueror who primarily fights with his exosuits suddenly gets a phone call from his mom.]] A rare instance of levity from '''''2003 Shredder of all people''''' is backed up by Scottie Ray staying in character for the entire call.
640** Raphael holds the Foot Ninja aloft by the neck. The latter goes "Unhand me, Turtle boy!" and slaps him in the face.
641** Donatello practices his rapid bo strikes - and overexerts himself too much.
642--->'''Don:''' ''(in exhausted voice)'' Oh boy... I need some coffee. ''(passes out)''
643** Shredder's attempt to punch through a brick wall goes horribly wrong.
644--->'''The Shredder:''' ''(struggles to get his fist out of the wall)'' My hand is stuck! ''(struggles more)'' Call Hun! Call my agent! Call someone! Get me out of this!
645** [[NotSoAboveItAll Leo]] playing ''VideoGame/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtlesTurtlesInTime'' and not realizing that he is being filmed.
646--->'''Leo:''' ''(Suddenly turns to face the camera)'' Oh he-he-hey guys, are we still rolling? I was just [[BlatantLies doing research... for... the game!]] [[BadLiar Yeah!]] ''(Krang appears in the game and says "PrepareToDie")'' IT'S MIKEY'S GAME!
647** April chastizes Donnie for eating popcorn, lamenting that nobody else could make more of it.
648*** Bonus points for '''''Shredder himself''''' sitting right next to Don. April casually slaps him on the shoulder as he munches popcorn ''through the helmet.''
649** This dialogue between the two Foot Ninjas.
650--->'''Foot Ninja 1:''' ''(makes a sudden belch)''
651--->'''Foot Ninja 2:''' You know, I was just bemoaning the fact that I can't belch on command this morning...
652--->'''Foot Ninja 1:''' I can make animal noises.
653** This scenario with a Foot Ninja performing motion capture.
654--->'''Foot Ninja:''' I'm sorry, what is my motivation? What is it that I'm supposed to be doing again?
655--->''(He suddenly gets knocked out by April who jumps into the frame)''
656--->'''April:''' Now that was a good move that I did- did you see that? Did you see- did everybody see that?
657[[/folder]]
658
659[[folder:Other]]
660* The slight change that happened in the second version of the theme song. Where we once got the menacing shot of Shredder on top of a building saying "Watch out for Shredder!", this is replaced with Leonardo, Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo who are now in that same spot. It then shows Mikey holding Shredder's helmet as he dances around and shouts "We shredded Shredder!"
661* The mini episodes--[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cjwBqHcGmHY all of them.]]
662* Leo's solo character bio short shows that all the Turtles can be [[AnnoyingYoungerSibling Annoying Younger Siblings]] to him.
663-->''Leo is meditating while he narrates''\
664'''Leo:''' ''(narrating)'' My name is Leonardo. My brothers look to [[TheLeader me for leadership and guidance]]. [[BigBrotherInstinct If they ever need me, I'm always there for them.]]\
665'''Mike:''' Psst! Hey sleepyhead!\
666'''Leo:''' ''(still narrating)'' Not that they appreciate it...\
667'''Mike:''' What're you doing Leo? Who're you talking to?\
668'''Don:''' Don't your legs get sore sitting like that?\
669''(Mike taps on Leo's head while Raph is skating nearby)''\
670'''Raph:''' You need some light in here, you're gonna ruin your eyes.\
671'''Leo:''' ''(narrating)'' Some days, I wonder why I get out of bed.
