The Powerpuff Girls (1998–2005)[]

Craig McCracken originally developed The Powerpuff Girls in 1992 as a cartoon short entitled Whoopass Stew! while in his second year at CalArts.[2] The series made its official debut as a Cartoon Cartoon on November 18, 1998, with the final episode airing on March 25, 2005.[3][4] The series centers on Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, three kindergarten-aged girls with superpowers. The girls all live in the fictional city of Townsville with their father and creator, a scientist named Professor Utonium, and are frequently called upon by the city's mayor to help fight nearby criminals and other enemies using their powers.

Powerpuff Girls Z (2006–2007)[]

Powerpuff Girls Z (出ましたっ!パワパフガールズZ, Demashita! Pawapafu Gāruzu Zetto, lit. They're Here! Powerpuff Girls Z) is a 2006 Japanese magical girl anime series based on the original The Powerpuff Girls, co-produced by Cartoon Network Japan and Aniplex and animated by Toei Animation.[5] The series featured character designs by Miho Shimogasa, the character designer of Cutie Honey Flash and Ultra Maniac and animation director of Sailor Moon, deviating from the original series in terms of genre and animation style.[6] Powerpuff Girls Z was aired in Japan on TV Tokyo between July 1, 2006, and June 30, 2007. In addition to Cartoon Network Japan, the anime was also broadcast on AT-X.[7][8]

The Powerpuff Girls (2016–2019)[]

Cartoon Network announced on June 16, 2014, that a rebooted The Powerpuff Girls was to be produced by Cartoon Network Studios. Amanda Leighton, Kristen Li, and Natalie Palamides were announced as the new voice actors of the main characters, playing Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, respectively,[9] replacing the original voice actors Cathy Cavadini, Tara Strong, and Elizabeth Daily.[10] However, Tom Kenny reprises his roles as the Mayor and narrator, while Tom Kane reprises his roles as Professor Utonium[11] and Him. In April 2016, Jennings revealed that the producers had considered bringing back the original voice actors for the new series, but decided that recasting the roles would infuse new energy.[11] After the network revealed multiple promotional images from the new series in June 2015, writers from news sites described the visual look as similar to the original series,[9] despite the 15th anniversary special Dance Pantsed, which was broadcast on January 20, 2014, featuring a different art style rendered in 3D.[10] Meanwhile, Roger L. Jackson reprises as Mojo Jojo and Jennifer Hale reprises as Ms. Keane, but not as Princess Morbucks.[12] On May 26, 2016, Natalie Palamides confirmed that the series has been renewed for a second season.[13] The reboot had a crossover with Teen Titans Go! that aired on June 30, 2016.[14] On September 17, 2017, a new and fourth Powerpuff Girl named Bliss was added in a 5-part special of the reboot, "The Power of Four". Prior to the announcement, a one-shot footage of Bliss was leaked on Cartoon Network Russia.[15][16]

Powerpuff pilot (2021)[]

On August 24, 2020, a live-action television series based on The Powerpuff Girls was announced to be in development at The CW, according to Variety. It would depict Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup as "disillusioned twentysomethings" resentful at losing their childhood to fighting crime and faced with the choice of reuniting "when the world needs them more than ever." The project, produced by Warner Bros. Television Studios, is written by Heather Regnier and Diablo Cody, who may also serve as executive producers with Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter and David Madden.[17] Craig McCracken is not involved; however, he declared his liking of Berlanti's superhero shows and admitted he is "curious" to see what they do with their adaptation.[18] A pilot was officially ordered on February 9, 2021, and Maggie Kiley was hired as the director.[19] Variety later reported that Chloe Bennet, Dove Cameron and Yana Perrault were cast as Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup.[20] On March 30, 2021, following the title change to Powerpuff, Donald Faison was cast in the role of Professor Drake Utonium, retaining the character's first name from Powerpuff Girls Z.[21] On April 1, Nicholas Podany was cast as Joseph "Jojo" Mondel Jr., the son of Mojo Jojo.[22] On April 7, 2021, production on the pilot began.[23] On April 9, 2021, Robyn Lively was cast as Sara Bellum and Tom Kenny was confirmed to be reprising his role as the Narrator from the original series.[24]

Second reboot[]

On July 18, 2022, a second Powerpuff Girls reboot series was announced with Craig McCracken returning as the creator, director, and producer. This reboot is meant to revisit and expand upon the world of the original series as Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup face off against a variety of old and new villains, and will be produced by Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe.[25]

Cast and characters[]

The main characters include Blossom, Bubbles, Buttercup, and Professor Drake Utonium, along with supporting characters Ms. Bellum and the Mayor, and villains Mojo Jojo, HIM, Fuzzy Lumpkins, Princess Morbucks, Sedusa, the Gangreen Gang, the Amoeba Boys, and the Rowdyruff Boys.

The Powerpuff Girls Movie (2002)[]

The film serves as a prequel to the series, the film tells the origin story of how the Powerpuff Girls were created and how they came to be the defenders of Townsville.[26]

Specials[]

The Powerpuff Girls: 'Twas the Fight Before Christmas (2003)[]

The Christmas special promotes minor antagonist Princess Morbucks to the position of main antagonist, following her as she attempts to trick Santa Claus into physically transforming her into a fourth Powerpuff Girl, while in the process making him believe that the Powerpuff Girls have been "very, very naughty".[27]

The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!! (2009)[]

In August 2008, McCracken revealed on his DeviantArt account, as had been announced in that year's Comic Con, that he was working with Cartoon Network on a new half-hour Powerpuff Girls special to celebrate the series' tenth anniversary.[28] The 22-minute special, titled "The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!!", aired on the Pan-Euro Cartoon Network on November 29, 2008, on the Powerpuff Girls Birthday Marathon, and in the United States on January 19, 2009, as part of its 10th anniversary marathon.[29] Unlike previous episodes in the series, the anniversary special was animated using Adobe Flash at Cartoon Network Studios.[30] Originally an idea for season 4, the special was meant to be the final episode of the series, but Cartoon Network was against ending their series openly at the time.[31] In March 2012, the series returned to Cartoon Network in reruns on the revived block, Cartoon Planet.[32]

Powerpuff Girls: Dance Pantsed (2014)[]

On January 28, 2013, a new CGI special titled Powerpuff Girls: Dance Pantsed was announced to premiere that year, though it was later delayed to January 20, 2014, intended to serve as a potential pilot for a new The Powerpuff Girls series.[33][34] Former Beatle Ringo Starr promoted the special on Cartoon Network, singing a new original song "I Wish I Was a Powerpuff Girl" with previews leading up to the airdate. Ringo also voiced a new character named Fibonacci Sequins in the episode.[35] The special was directed by Dave Smith, who directed episodes for the series in the past, featuring the original cast members reprising their roles.[36] This Powerpuff Girls special marked the first time that series creator Craig McCracken had no input.[37] The main plot sees Mojo Jojo kidnap Fibonacci alongside an opera singer and a badger. After the Powerpuff Girls rescue them all and defeat Mojo, an undeterred Mojo then goes on to invent an evil video game called "Dance Pants R-EVILution" (a parody of the video game Dance Dance Revolution) to take over Townsville.[38]

The Teen Titans Go! and Powerpuff Girls Crossover (2016)[]

This episode was produced by Warner Bros. Animation primarily in the same art style as Teen Titans Go! despite being an episode of The Powerpuff Girls, making it the first episode produced by a studio other than Cartoon Network Studios since 1998 The Powerpuff Girls series episode "Superfriends". After using a repellent to temporarily hinder Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup, Mojo Jojo uses a teleportation device to teleport himself to Jump City in the Teen Titans Go! universe. There, he recruits an oblivious Beast Boy and Cyborg to help him build his monkey army. The girls try to follow him, only to run into Robin, Raven, and Starfire. Rather than showing concern for their predicament, the Titans then proceed to rope the girls into a contest to see who's the better team over the goal of stopping Mojo.
