Line 10:
The pilot bombed spectacularly: the aborted series is a textbook example of a [[Stillborn Franchise]]: a niche work being rammed into another medium, adaption changes alienating the existing fans, critical panning and a failure to capture a new mainstream audience. No further episodes were broadast and it likely destroyed any chance of a good ''Battletoads'' series ever being made.
 
For many years it was nearly forgotten (though it was released on VHS in 1994), buried in the wasteland alongside hundreds of other failed TV pilots, until rediscovered by the Internet. See it in its 30 minutes of glory [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=df5UEKxHQ3U here] (or the somewhat [[MST|MSTed]]ed version [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RKkL-e5FfEA here]).
