Dopey was a member of the Punk Gang in the 1987 TV Series.

He remained unnamed in all few of his appearances, and also never spoke. He appeared in Turtle Tracks, under the orders of the Shredder and the leadership of Rocksteady, tried to kill April O'Neil. Eventually, the Turtles showed up and he was thrown to a wall, along with Bebop and defeated. He later reappeared in Hot Rodding Teenagers from Dimension X as an unknown mutant with a curled up nose, and made one final appearance in Shredder and Splintered, behind bars with Scrag, Grunt and Dumbo. All four were inside the Technodrome when it was sucked into Dimension X.

He was omitted from several adaptations of Season 1, as he was not present in the Coloring Books or Archie Comics.

He made a cameo in Turtles Forever when the Turtles arrive in the dimension where the 80's Turtles reside and is seen on the streets with the human forms of the other gang members.
