An A-Z compilation of all 247 insults or derogatory comments that Shredder makes during the first 3 seasons of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987 to 1989).


My favourite bits:

(*) The sequence of 13 "blasted turtles" at 0:30
(*) "Daaoh, BLAST that grotesque ganglion!!" at 4:09
(*) "I want to do some DAMAGE! I want to DESTROY something!! ..." at 4:17
(*) "Get off me, you horn-headed KLUTZ!!" at 4:29
(*) The "incompentent" sequence, starting at 5:54
(*) The "mutant moron" sequence, starting at 7:41
(*) "Krang, you are UNSPEAKABLY cruel!" at 9:42


Things to watch out for:

(*) Although Shredder does come up with a rich variety of insults, his favourites are: "fool", "idiot", "cretin" and "blasted turtles".

(*) Shredder sometimes uses brain-related words in his insults for Krang, since Krang is just a brain in a mechanical suit. For example, "grotesque ganglion" (a ganglion is a mass of nerve cells) and "maniac medulla" (the medulla is the relay station between the spinal cord and the brain).

(*) Shredder is turned into a baby in episode 3x30 "Leatherhead: Terror of the Swamp".

(*) Shredder is turned into a fly in episode 3x44 "Bye Bye Fly".

(*) At the end of the video, there are a couple of left-over insults, plus an amusing quote (it isn't an insult, he's just very very angry!)


Sorry about the Dutch subtitles in many of the clips!
