Tulsa King is adding to its cast for season two, and surely somebody cares.

He is also known as Howling Commando Timothy “Dum Dum” Dugan in the Marvel Cinematic Universe starting with Captain America: The First Avenger , including the Captain Carter universe featured in What If…?  Recently, he did 7 episodes of 9-1-1: Lone Star and played President Dwight Eisenhower in the Death Valley portion of the Double Feature season of American Horror Story.

Yup, The Original 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' Is Making Its Way To Paramount+

 


The original 1987 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be heading to Paramount+ in September, the franchise's social media accounts announced on Tuesday. You kept hoping this is what the acquisition entailed, and it's turned out to be the case. But it's happening a little slower than one may have hoped. 

On September 19, the first two seasons will arrive on the service. That encompasses 18 episodes, from "Turtle Tracks" to "Return of the Technodrome". These are also the episodes that were recently relisted to iTunes with Nickelodeon branding on August 14. Clearly, it's going to be a gradual process, but this isn't a bad start. At least you'll know what to expect every time another batch of seasons is relisted on iTunes.

At the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem San Diego Comic-Con panel on July 20, the series which originally aired 193 episodes from 1987-1996 on CBS was announced by original co-creator Kevin Eastman to have finally been acquired by Paramount, having owned the rest of the franchise since 2009. 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, even if its 6 midnight hours a week with a Friday marathon starting at that hour and ending at the start of the Saturday schedule as it was when it landed is now just the midnights Monday to Thursday. It wasn't so clear whether the deal covered a premium streaming service like Paramount+, or if it would just be a purely ad-supported one like Pluto TV is. After all, Paramount+ isn't Nickelodeon-branded per se, even with a Nickelodeon hub on the service. This confirmation is very assuring.

This makes the 2003 4Kids-produced Turtles series the only one to come to Paramount+ in whole rather than in pieces. Rise season 1 arrived alone in April 2021. The 2012 series took from June 2022 with just season 1 to just two weeks ago with seasons 4 and 5 to fully arrive on the service. Heck even when Tales of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series arrives, whether one season drops all at once or in batches it still wouldn't be able to qualify because it's a two-season order.
