Meanwhile, Turtlemania has spread to the small screen.
“We’ve had literally dozens of requests,” says New Line Cinema marketing prez Sandra Ruch, for talk-show appearances by the turtles and their creators, Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird.

Upcoming: Connie Chung has taped a piece with Eastman and Laird for May airing and Arsenio Hall is planning a “TMNT” segment that will likely feature musical acts who contributed to the movie’s sound track, along with some combination of the creators.
