Think Michael Bay’s Ninja Turtles are missing that certain tubular something that made the heroes on a half shell such an important part of your childhood? Watch this weird clip from a 1990 taping of The Oprah Winfrey Show and see if your nostalgia is justified.

The TMNT were on Oprah’s show to promote their album “Coming Out of Their Shells.” April and Shredder also make an appearance, as does Chicago-style pizza, awkward guitar playing, and big hair.
