I'm trying hard to give this show a big chance.  But I guess I have to accept it is not the original.  It isn't a bad show on it's own.  It is acceptable and decent and will certainly have it's own following.  But for us nostalgia people, it just isn't the original.

They did bring back some classic villains like Mojo Jojo, Princess. Fuzzy Lumpkin, and the Gangreen Gang, though they really didn't do much.  Most of the Gang didn't even have lines, they were just window dressing. They tried to do too much at once with that episode. The could have easily dropped most of the baddies (why were they sharing a cell, anyhow?) and focused more on Him's scheme.

I feel the original villains are almost like pals or neighborhood bullies in this new series.  They don't come across as threatening.  Most of the new villains are just variations of old villains.

The upcoming Powerpuff Girls episode will have a sick Blossom and Bubbles.  Unknown cause.  It will premier June 23, on Cartoon Network's "Yoursdays." 

SYNOPSIS: "Blossom and Bubbles get sick and Buttercup takes care of them."

It is the last episode of the season.

Oh boi.
You know, ever since I was little, I always imagined Buttercup being a caretaker. Always thought it would be something out of her element. Anyway. What is it with this series obsession with Buttercup?

Like, take the first 5 episodes. 4 out of 5 are about her. They use her more and stuff. Which I guess is good since the other two are annoying in this series.

They need to change Bubbles and Blossom.  They aren't endearing like they used to be.  Blossom is borderline annoying, and I am getting sick of the trope where the cute and quite one yells and becomes super mad when angry.

Yeah. Blossom just sounds sooooo pretentious when she talks. Like she talks like she's better than you, which isn't Blossom. She was smart, but she never talked down to her sisters.

And yeah, that trope is getting old and annoying.

This series doesn't make me actually love the girls like I liked them in the original.  The background characters don't match the style of them, and they don't really seem like superheros a lot of the time.

That's the main problem. They aren't superheroes anymore. So the show isn't doing what the show was initially about. Which is stupid.

They have time to fix it....

The show isn't doing super good ratings wise.  Low millions, and for a network like CN, they certainly expected higher.

Okay, so here is the sneeze total for you.

A pig: 1

Blossom: 1

Stereotypical ending.

Overall it was a pretty bad episode.
