This show is one of the reason why I would usually choose Cartoon Network over Nickelodeon has a kid. Sure, Nickelodeon had Jimmy Neutron, Spongebob Squarepants, the Fairly OddParents, My Life as a Teenage Robot, Chalk Zone, Oh Yeah Cartoons, and Ren and Stempy; however, Cartoon Network had some of my favorite all time shows like Ed Edd 'n Eddy, The Powerpuff Girls, Johnny Bravo, Megas XLR, Teen Titans, Hanna Barbera classics like the Jetsons; the Flintstones; Wacky Races; Josie and the Pussycats; Scooby Doo; etc. , the Looney Tunes, and programming blocks like Toonami; Cartoon Cartoons; Carton Cartoons Fridays; etc. Speaking of those programming blocks, I also preferred the bumpers Cartoon Network would use with them; for example, Toonami had Tom (who was the successor to Moltar).But, on to the point, the Powerpuff Girls was a big part of my childhood. I admit I was embarrassed to watch or speak of the show in public, but I grew past that. So yeah, if you haven't seen the original Powerpuff girls, you should check them out.P.S. Mojo Jojo is the best villain in the show. He's right next to Princess Morbucks, the Rowdyruff Boys, and that Powerpuff Girls collector (you know the one in that single episode).

To be completely honest I still don't know why I used to praise a cartoon like "The Powerpuff Girls" when I was a kid. I mean sure I grew up with the cartoons from Cartoon Network being my childhood favorite channel that I used to watch religiously no matter what. But returning with the Powerpuff Girls I can see that this show hasn't aged well, in fact I don't think this show really cared that much for itself either. In my opinion I didn't like the way how the famous animator Craig McCracken made this show so repetitive, I mean looking at it again I can honestly say that this show was pretty much formulaic at best.I am a bit surprised to see how the main characters were always this petulant, yes I know what you're thinking (It's just a cartoon dude) but I have to care about the show's character development. And frankly the girls personality didn't only remain unchanged but one thing that really annoyed me about this show was that how the girls would never learn their mistakes but especially doing one of the most irritating things when they were committing contradictions. And that bugs me a lot, because it's like telling to the children it's OK to steal candy without nobody ever noticing them.I know I'm being nit-picky here but another flaw I simply didn't like the show was it's villains. Not necessarily their attitudes, but it makes me wonder how they can simply escape from the jails that easily every time PPG kicked their butts. It gets repeated all over again and you get the picture. Plus after so many episodes why couldn't at least the PPG destroyed Mojo Jojo's volcano lab? After all "they" were the ones who build it if you've seen the movie before so why not destroy his lab and end his world domination plans? It leaves with so many plot holes and missed opportunities.Although there were some episodes were the show would actually get more serious tones than they usually do but ultimately most of them would still come to a very cheesy and predictable resolutions (well except for one episode with the one who had Christine Cavanaugh (R.I.P.) as guest voice acting and IMO I think that was one of the rare occasions the show finally could have taken a step further to become (just slightly) more mature but likewise it completely ignored it and forgot the whole thing entirely.)Plus even though a certain episode wouldn't contain anything about heroism or action those episodes would still be pretty much boring, forgettable and pathetic at best and still having the same danged ending despite not doing anything for their people and the city.But not only that (albeit unrelated), the other kinds of things that also annoys me with PPG is how so many other cartoons had tried to be like this show. Like for example "My Life as a Teenage Robot" (actually I still believe that cartoon took many inspirations and tributes to this show), while in my opinion not as bad as this show but ultimately failed to reach it's potential to become something even better than what it eventually became more dumber than serious just for the sake of it's comedy just like PPG.On the other hand, the animation wasn't that bad. Not only was it colorful but the movements were at least well drawn and executed, but even though the shows style pretty much felt derived from Genndy Tartakovsky's Dexter's Lab. Yes I know they used to work together back then but I can't help it but feel like Genndy's style has been used for so many times in a bad way (if you know what I mean.)With all that being said, PPG is a disappointing show and taking a look at it again didn't help me change my mind. It should have been better when it had the chance, but ultimately ignored those possibilities and kept being just another cartoon with these annoying clichés that had inspired many other cartoonists for their works. Much of the same things can be said to McCrackens second show "Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends" albeit much better than his previous work it managed to become generally bad as well thanks to these forsaken clichés like PPG had.Now I'm not so sure what to think of this new upcoming reboot of this show, but I honestly don't think it's going to go well not because of the lack of the real voice actresses but only for the sake of the channel itself. Not a good glimpse I'm afraid.1/10

I love this show! This show is one of the BEST CN shows ever!This is even better than Ben 10 and Adventure Time!And I was inspired by thisThis show is about 3 5 year old girls saving the day before bed time. They were made by sugar, spice, and everything nice and accidentally put chemical X in. They help people, Beat up criminals, but sometimes it could be hard and challenging, Go to school. This show was the best! 1. The characters were likable. 2. The plot was awesome 3. This is from the creators of Dexter's Laboratory 4. The songs were original.This is going in my favorite cartoons list!

One of the best for sure. This show has some fine imagination, strange yet smart sense of comedy, nice action, and original moments. I can't forget an episode concerning the tooth fairy going bananas because simply he doesn't sleep (as he works just before the dawn which begins in new where every second !), so he toils around the clock and around the terrestrial globe unstoppably, envying Santa Claus who sleeps all the year just to work for one night (he totally got a point !), and so on the uncommonness of this show. Basically the main idea of Charlie's Angels as kids mixed with superpower as animated series is super itself. I've got hooked by it in the first place. Another factor; the droll drawings where the character's design is unique and funny, the atmosphere is so gaudily colored (as if children did it), and the motion is always MAD. Not to mention being a girlie show that could attract both girls and boys in the same time. By the way, I kind of study the whole TV shows and history, following accurately many running themes, their time of prosperity, and their milestones; so I noticed that along with this show, 1998 witnessed the birth of another shows such as "Charmed", and Charlie's Angels spoof "V.I.P" too; it assures undoubtedly that girls became nobody's fool, too tough, and have PowerPuff or PowerGirls leagues all over the world nowadays. Few cartoon shows that I feel bad whenever they cut to commercials while it, craving what would happen and how the problem would be solved.. This is one of them. With this spirit, especially at writing, this show maintains fresh every time I catch it. It managed to be as original and lovely as its tagline "Saving the world before bedtime". Being a talented fun time and a loose fantasy just like infants' vision yet sharper.
