I agree, I see everybody complaining that the animation is so much different from the old show, yet they apparently seem to forget the animation very completely different during the final two seasons compared to the first couple seasons..

Animation design wise, it is very similar from where the show left off after Season 6 of it's original run.

The animation doesn't bother me, the fact they snubbed the original voices and replaced them with these no talent kids.

IGN gave the first episode an 8: http://www.ign.com/articles/2016/03/...-man-up-review

I watched it (And two more leaked episodes), and I personally enjoyed them. It does a good job of capturing the spirit of the original while putting its own spin on the characters.

*THGhost* · 04-04-2016, 05:31 PM

Just watched the first episode. As expected, it was a cheap imitation of the original, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. It definitely felt like a missed opportunity for the very first episode of a new series though. Hopefully we'll get to see more of the original villains and The Professor. It also seems like they're skipping the PPG'S origin story entirely.

*TheBlueTurtle1* · 04-05-2016, 01:39 AM

Dreadful, just dreadful.

*Cure* · 04-05-2016, 08:10 AM

The first two episodes were doooooope.

Definitely. Have them bring in new villains for sure, but keep the old ones too. Having Princess Morebucks as the villain for the premiere episode was an odd choice. I enjoyed the second segment a lot more than the first.

*GoldMutant* · 04-05-2016, 02:26 PM

I plan on watching episode 2 tonight, but for the most part the reboot is solid. Still unsure on the voices tonight; then again, I only watched part of the Princess episode yesterday, not the whole thing. I'll make a better judgement tonight.

Loved the hang over spoof.

And guess what? Robin Snyder from Superfreinds is back, She had a little role here with the raisins joke, than the big role when Morbucks lead her astray.

But it was nice seeing some one from the old show back in action.

The voices for the girls sound a lot better than they did in the ads, don't know why.

*drgon78* · 04-06-2016, 06:19 AM

After watching an episode I can say that the voices for the girls are terrible, the girl's personalities are off, and the writing is as bad as most other shows on this channel. But because it is a piece of crap it will last 5+ seasons. Thank you CN, you ruined Teen Titans and now it is the Powerpuff Girls turn. I really want to know why they bothered to get most of the old voice actors but snubbed the main three.

With CN these days, who knows.

I enjoyed the show for what it is. I wasn't expecting it to be exactly the same as the original. The humor was pretty funny for the most part (there were some parts that made me scratch my head). I really do like how they give the girls more facial expressions through eyes, lips, even nostrils in Blossom's case. In my opinion, it gives the girls range. The voices for the girls are not the best but I like them. This is just me but I actually prefer Buttercup's voice over her original butch-Tommy voice. It goes well with her more sarcastic and dry wit. Bubbles' sounds more enthusiastic and Blossom does sound like Cathy Cavadini with a head-cold. At least we have the original voices for all of the other characters so far.

Not bad. Better than most cartoons on CN today. Faithful while adding a bit of layers to it.

*BabyTurtles* · 04-07-2016, 03:36 PM

I didn't like the episode I saw....and I was looking forward to this show (had a complete open mind)

but...it's just one episode I'll give another episode a try ^_^

I think it's really bad, but to anyone who likes it fair enough.

Yoshimickster · 04-07-2016, 11:38 PM

The new show is okay, but honestly it feels like its in the same heir as "New Doug". Y'know, every character's voice is the same except for the protagonist's because the producers didn't want to pay the original actors, plots are recycled from the original series and tweaked, and the animation is in a NOTICABLY of a different style. I enjoy it, but I wouldn't be surprised if it goes no-where.

*THGhost* · 04-08-2016, 10:47 AM

At least the theme tune's good?

The only big disappointment for me is that it probably isn't going to have a cohesive narrative structure like the original series; most episodes being individual stories but still the occasional thread running through them. I mean, the origin story was skipped, the Professor was non-existent and Blossom already has her ice breath power.

I don't get the feel its a reboot.

Seeing Robin Snyder sort of confirm it in the Hang over spoof. I think its them picking up were they left off, the girls are a bit older now, with cell phones ete.

I think the major problem is were is Him? Fuzzy? a Major Mojo plot? We don't get that, we get unicorn's and sakes kids, and some other non world threat plot.

We see the Mayor? But no Belum? Its decent, but its not the classic the series was. The only show I really enjoy was the hang over spoof, and that was it.

Yoshimickster · 04-08-2016, 11:15 PM

Basically unlike the original show, where it pseudo-establishes what's going on, this show THROWS the viewer into it. Which is fine...for the older members of the audience who KNOW these characters, but for anyone who DIDN'T grow up with them its a little confusing.

And it shares the same problem with Teen Titans Go in that we can't tell whether its its own thing, or a loose sequel, its needlessly confusing!

And yes, when the Shell is our Mojo plot? They BETTER not just be using him for cameos, I'd be SO annoyed if so.
