The "Classic" Powerpuff Girls

[fanboy]

Remember when the Powerpuff Girls was a good (was animated by Hanna-Barbera Studios) before the Powerpuff Girls Movie. Now it's too kiddy (Animated by Cartoon Network Studios).

This show was really good when was done by Craig McCracken. Now the new artist make the show too boring. The only good thing on the new Powerpuff Girls is the animation, because the rest it is too boring and a little childish.
I can really say that the movie ruined the show.

Have to agree. Like most Cartoon Cartoons, PPG's early seasons are the best.

I prefer the earlier episodes also but I still like the show now. This often happens when cartoons have been around for a while. They get a new director then the show isnt as good.

In most cases (especially durring the 90's) the best seasons of any show was the first season.

Ninja Turtles, Spider-Man: TAS, and Dexter's Lab to name a few.

Dexter's Laboratory's first season has got to be one of the most overrated cartoons ever. I'm sorry, but Dexter was not that good until its second season. Aside from the better Kat Cressida becoming the new voice of Dee Dee, the writing itself was so much improved from Season 1 Dexter. Someone else besides me must have noticed...

I think when many people talk about how much better old Dexter was to new Dexter nowadays, they're specifically referring to Season 2, and not Season 1.

I agree, the Ninja Turtle of 2003 look just stupid.

it was the greatest miracle that the series survived in its first known episode, roaches and kids going to jail for breaking out of jail to clear their names so they wouldn't have to be in jail.

really, really sad. i'm glad they don't air the classic early ppg much anymore, or rotate the ppg episodes in primetime anymore.

FWIW, the old HB logo at the end was just because Craig liked it when he was a kid. It's always been done at CN Studios.

-- Kane ... granted, the early "studio" was just various floors of various bank buildings in Sherman Oaks.

Actually no. In 2000, Turner decided to group their assets and combine Hanna Barbera Studios (which they bought many years ago), and move the company to a new faucility. When they moved, they renamed the studio to "Cartoon Network Studios" because the name was more approiate (CN and HB were the same thing at this point). The first season of The Powerpuff Girls, Dexter's Laboratory, Johnny Bravo, and Cow & Chicken were done at Hanna Barbera.

Dexter's Lab (season 2 - midway), PPG (season 3) were at the new CN Studios.

Interesting fact: Cartoon Network Studios is actually the same building that was the mall in the 80's movie "Fast Times at Ridgemont High".
