Paramount+ To Add 'TMNT' (1987) Seasons 1 & 2 on Sept. 19

Paramount+ will be adding the first two seasons of the original 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series on Tuesday, September 19, our friends over at What's on Paramount+ are reporting!

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1987 - seasons 1 and 2 covers

The two seasons encompasses the first 18 episodes of the iconic series, from "Turtle Tracks" to "Return of the Technodrome".

The news follows Nickelodeon announcing that it acquired the global rights to the animated Fred Wolf TMNT series during the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem panel at Comic-Con International: San Diego 2023.

By August 1, the first season hit YouTube and Nick.com, began dominating the Totally Turtles Pluto TV channel with episodes as deep as season 7, and Nicktoons has hit plenty of episodes as well. Then on August 14, the first two seasons were relisted on iTunes and other digital purchase websites with Nickelodeon branding.

The 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series joins the 2003 4Kids-produced TMNT series as well as the Nickelodeon-produced Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012) and Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2018) on the service. The 4Kids-produced series was the only one to arrive Paramount+ in whole rather than in seasonal batches.

Considered one of the most popular kids’ franchises, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles is a classic, global property created in 1984 by Peter Laird and Kevin Eastman. It first debuted as a successful comic book series and then became a hit animated TV show, a live-action television series and later spawned numerous blockbuster theatrical releases. The property is a global consumer products powerhouse, winning in every category that has hit shelves to date—with toys, apparel, video games, DVDs and more—and generating billions of dollars at retail.
