Powerpuff Girls & Foster's Home For Imaginary Friends Return With Craig McCracken
 
Quote:
This new animated Powerpuff Girls reboot will "revisit and expand upon the world of the original series," with Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup facing off against villains both familiar and new. The announcement from Hanna-Barbera Studios makes no mention of Bliss, and since she wasn't created by McCracken, viewers probably shouldn't expect to see her again.

Meanwhile, the Foster's reboot will be decidedly different than the original. This one will be aimed at preschool viewers, starring a new crop of preschool-age imaginary friends. But the studio promises the new characters are "just as silly and playful" as the original imaginary friends like Bloo and Wilt.

Was there really a live action show like that? Holy crap.

Hopefully its enjoyable?

It was in the leaked pilot script

Personally I wish they would just make sequel animated movies.

The Hell? How many Powerpuff girls reboots do we need? And each attempt has failed, learn from your flipping mistakes don’t make more your destroying the franchise.

Studios aren't learning from mistakes.

They're just a bunch of ego maniacs that want to force square pegs into circles, and make it work even if it's an awkward mess.

Will this next reboot have the PPG twerking again? I bet it's an even worse clusterf*ck than the 2016 series.

Sheesh, doesn't anyone have any hope since Craig McCracken is back this time? The other reboots were bleh, but I have cautious optimism with the creator at the helm...

...though he could still screw it up, of course.

That could mean that the original PPG voice actresses could come back to reprise their roles.

I wouldn't watch it unless they do get the original voice actors back....that are still alive/not retired.

A lot of reboots/sequels had the original creator at the helm, and were still garbage. Take the new Rugrats, for one example.

Seems at the moment the 'in thing' to do is return to the people that showrun prior. Doctor Who and Spider-Man are also examples what with Russel T. Davies and Dan Slott returning

Read over on Craig's twitter chains that the PPG revival will be more serialized

ZariusTwo 10-17-2022 08:08 AM
Wow, it looks like Craig came back to do these shows entirely because he's broke, he came up with over 16 different original shows for Netflix that were all rejected because Hollywood only want existing IPs

Not sure why anyone would want to pitch anything to Netflix these days considering how quick they are to cancel things.
