Suggested by user_3112
Based on the 1987 Ninja Turtles and 1992 C.O.W.-Boys of Moo Mesa TV series. The Turtles visit Moo Mesa again with Marshal Moo and his deputies, and Michelangelo teaches Miss Lily in the Tumbleweed Saloon how to make pizza because she’s never heard of pizza, neither have Moo and his deputies. Mayor Bulloney gets mad at Sheriff Terrorbull (a.k.a. the Masked Bull), Saddle Sore, and Boot Hill for their constant failures and plans on hiring the toughest, meanest, and sneakiest gang called the Cactus Cow Gang (Pistol Paul, Dirty Dwayne, Lowbrow Larry, and Cactus Cal) as their replacements, much to Terrorbull’s outrage. Mayor Bulloney orders the Cactus Cow Gang to kidnap Miss Lily and use her as bait to trap Moo and his Deputies. Will the Turtles and C.O.W.-Boys rescue Miss Lily and take the Cactus Cow Gang in? And will Sheriff Terrorbull/Masked Bull, Saddle Sore, and Boot Hill get their jobs back? From the creators of Legend of the Three Caballeros (2018). Voices by Ben Stiller, Tom Kenny, Steve Carell, David DeLuise, Alec Baldwin, Eric Bauza, James Patrick Stuart, Kari Wahlgren, Hugh Laurie, Diedrich Bader, Carlos Alazraqui, Jim Carrey, Jack Black, Troy Baker, and Seth Rogen.
