Seeing this topic active again reminded me of the reboot series. It's coming next year. Also, the new Lion King series is supposedly coming to Disney Jr. this year. I plan to check both of them out. Hope they're both worthy enough to make it into my Favorite Cartoons list!

Does it look any different from the 1998 series?

I've got some bad news to report: Tara Strong just announced today that she, Elizabeth Daily and Cathy Cavadini will not be reprising their roles on the PPG reboot series. This was a decision made by Cartoon Network; not them.

I hear that Jennifer Hale and Roger Jackson will be reprising their roles as well. Also, Craig McCracken will not have any involvement with it.

if this ends up as bad as Teen Titans Go is then I won't watch it, then again I probably won't watch it just to keep in mind Tara Strong's voice for Bubbles

Just got word that the new series will be premiering in April...but only in Brazil and Latin America. There is still no word on when it'll premier in the US, or any of the other countries yet.

youtu.be/kUXprMizqIsA clip from the upcoming reboot of the show. Animation isn't identical but it's close same with the voice acting of Buttercup. I see a better chance on this show than... *gags* you know. Might give me reason to check up on CN at times.

The new series is premiering tonight...but it looks like I'm going to miss the first episode since I didn't get a chance to set up my DVR to record it (unless I can find it on demand).

Okay then! I have watched a few episodes of the new Powerpuff Girls series, and I have this to say:
This series does seem to be like a lot of the current CN shows. Though by watching it, I can tell that it does have a lot of the clever writing that the original series had. It seems to have a lot of the humor from "Wander Over Yonder", and that's impressive considering Craig McCracken is t even working on this show.
So far, other recognizable characters from the series are lacking, but I'm sure we will see more of them later on.
The girls themselves are all about the same as they were in the original series. Only differences being: Blossom is a tad less logical, Bubbles is a tad more girly, Buttercup is a tad less masculine. Nothing too drastic. The new voice actors seem to give the voices to the girls rather nicely; they sound very close to their original counterparts, except for Buttercup, she sounds very different.
My only dismay with the series is the fact that it's only 15 minutes long. I don't think it would hurt for them to just put two short episodes into one half hour like they did in the past.
So overall, I guess you can call me similar to Trey_Vore here, I enjoy this series a lot, will continue watching it, and I'd say it's good enough for me to add to my favorites.

wow, the latest episode pretty much wrote out the character of Ms. Sara Bellum.

So I see you found a remake worthy of your attention.
Cool.

Trey_Vore he probably won't like it when he sees the girls twerking with a panda bear
