* MythologyGag: When introducing Casey Jones, Donnie refers to him as a "gackface", something he called him in [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles the 1990 movie]].

Added DiffLines:

* {{Flanderization}}: In the VHS release of the show, all footage of Casey Jones removing his mask and interacting with the audience are taken out due to union-related agreements with the actor, so the VHS version of Casey Jones just wears his hockey mask causally all the time.

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: April, Splinter, and Baxter Stockman are nowhere to be seen. It is at least justified in the latter’s case as Shredder no way/time to contact him.

* PacifiedAdaptation: Even more so than the original show. The Turtles never actually fight, in ''Coming Out of Their Shells'' they at least used their weapons against foot clan. The only fight in this show is between Shredder and Casey, and on top being rather dodgy, it only lasts for about a minute or two.

* OdeToFood: Like the last concert, the turtles have written a song that's all about their love of pizza "Pizza USA."

* SchmuckBait: Shredder tricks the turtles into releasing him by threatening to expose a VHS tape containing footage of them committing terrible acts, reasoning that he ''can't'' show them what's on it because there are no VHS players in the dimension he was imprisoned in. It never occurred to them that ''maybe'' he didn't have a tape to begin with (considering he's in a PrisonDimension), and if the tape ''was'' real, then he would have no way to show it to anyone.

After the success of their ''Theatre/ComingOutOfTheirShells'', the Franchise/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles have just began their new 1992 ''Gettin' Down in Your Town'' tour. With the help of their new roadie Casey Jones, the turtles are able to see into the dimension they had banished Shredder to. There the Shredder tricks the Turtles into freeing him from his prison. Rather than fight the Shredder themselves, they simply pass him along to Casey to deal with instead.

Unlike the first tour, ''Gettin' Down in Your Town'' ran exclusively at [[Ride/SixFlags Six Flags Great America]] in 1992.

!!''Gettin' Down in Your Town'' provides examples of:
* OdeToFood: Like the last concert, the turtles have written a song that's all about their love of pizza "Pizza USA."
* MythologyGag: When introducing Casey Jones, Donnie refers to him as a "gackface", something he called him in [[Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles the 1990 movie]].
* NiceJobBreakingItHero: The Turtles releasing their mortal enemy from a PrisonDimension that they sent him in certainly qualifies.
* ThePiratesWhoDontDoAnything: The Turtles hired Casey Jones to be their [[TheRoadie roadie]] (or "toadie" as Leo calls him), but he won't actually do anything they tell him to do, something that's PlayedForLaughs.
--> '''Raphael:''' Hey Casey, how bout gettin' us a soft-drink?\\
'''Casey Jones:''' Eh, shut-up.\\
'''Leonardo:''' Woah. Casey, how 'bout uh, sharpening my sword?\\
'''Casey Jones:''' What? Your arms broken, or somethin'?\\
'''Leonardo:''' Strike two.\\
'''Michelangelo:''' Yo, Casey, dude, how 'bout ordering a pizza?\\
'''Casey Jones:''' Yeah, who died and made you boss?

* ShoutOut: Raphael calls Shredder "[[Film/EdwardScissorhands Edward Scissorsface]]."
* TooDumbToLive: The fact that the Turtles believed Shredder when he says that he can blackmail them from his PrisonDimension really tells you how dumb they are. The fact that they freed him because they ''wanted'' him to play the tape in front of their audience just compounds the issue further.
