I thought it already started after seeing how many people I've seen bury it already. I liked PPGs back then but I didn't LOVE it, but I'm willing to give it a try and I think it could be good.

Not watching live, as I caught a couple leaked episodes last night. I love what I've seen so far! I'll say more sometime after the premiere episode is done.

It was ok, but seemed a bit too modern at times (i did like how the PPG phone is now a cell phone though), and that weird disembodied voice repeating certain things was unneeded (do you really want to be borrowing stuff from Pickle and Peanut?). Still, there was some amusing stuff and interesting ideas, so i'll definitely be watching regularly. Cant wait to see Mojo Jojo again.

No. I did the "Powerpuff Yourself" thing on CN's website solely because I've wanted an OC in that art style for years, but I have zero intention of watching this.

I've seen a few of the episodes of it. It's... Eh? Not really that great a start. Lot more watchable than a lot of the stuff on Cartoon Network, but it feels like one of those, "Wait until season two and see how that is," shows.

I saw a couple of episodes and I think "eh" is right. It feels like someone trying too hard to remake PPG instead of new PPG. It lacks a certain creative magic that made the original so good. The new voices also sound off.

No its not just, "eh" its great! Lot of chuckles and a surprising amount of character development of the girls in nearly every episode. Even the one-shot characters are fleshed out.
The show is terrific so far.

I think it's one of the better newer shows on CN right now.

I never stated what I did as a fact, calm down.

I never stated what I did as a fact, calm down. You started your post by immediately dismissing someone else's opinion. With "No its not just, "eh" " You didn't say I disagree, or just start with It's great! You went out of your way to say the other person's opinion was wrong.

I always dislike when cartoon shoehorn "le funny memes" into the cartoon,it can work but... PPG needs to avoid it.

I did not think it was bad at first site, but with each episode I watch, the more I grew to dislike it. I was not the biggest fan of the original show so maybe that has something to do with it. I will say it has its audience and if people are a fan of it, then good for them.

I gave it a try because I loved the show back in the day, but I just can't get past the voices being different. I can appreciate that they're going for something different, but it's *too* different for me.
Which is all fine - I'm not the target demo, and I'm sure that demo will enjoy this show as much as we did back in the day.

Ehh, could be worse Although the "political correctness" thing is dumb as crap, considering the unicorn episode is the worst attempt at a trans aesop I've ever seen.

That, and in the time the show has been on, it has had at least 3-4 jokes that boil down to "there's a man wearing a dress, ain't that wacky!" It's really failing badly if it's trying to be more appropriate. That, and is Miss Bellum worse than Him, who they brought back?
