...you know, if Cartoon Network would just broadcast episodes of the original PPG instead of doing another reboot, that would be pretty okay.

It'll be great to have Professor Utonium be portrayed as a villain for forcing the girls to be heroes despite multiple instances of him either stopping them from crime fighting or the Powerpuff Girls actively wanting to fight for Townsville on multiple occasions.
Blech.
Blech.

Wait, wait, wait... It's a SERIES? On CW?
I honestly thought it was gonna be a movie for CN
The giveaway should have been the fact that it's live action, not a cartoon.
