>It's real
What the frick
Don't get your hopes up for foster's.
PPG still sounds promising though.
I literally don't care about Foster's, as much as I liked it as a kid. Plus, from the sounds of it, it's being made for an extremely young demographic so I'm automatically disinterested.
I just missed the girls.
what the frick is going on
HOLY SHIT
>Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends will be reimagined as a preschool animated series with a new cast of preschool-aged imaginary friends. The original series, for kids a bit older, ran for six seasons on Cartoon Network and won six Emmys of its own.
Frick
Fosters sucked anyway. I don't know why PPG needs to be rebooted again though. Just continue rom the original series, it's not like there's much of a continuity anyway.
>Just continue rom the original series,
It does say "expand on" so maybe it will, either way I'm excited Craig is being allowed to handle these characters again and I'm excited about the new music that comes from it.
i'd love to hear some new stuff from james. i still get mad there's no cohesive cd release of the show's score. like they did all those remix cds and whatnot but even if i could just get even the movie's score in physical form i'd be happy
Foster's pilot was excellent and the show itself had tons of potential that was unfortunately wasted during its run on Bloo being a dickhead.
A reboot aimed to preschoolers with a new cast is a bad decision and something that no one asked for.
>I don't know why PPG needs to be rebooted again
Merchandise sales. The 2016 reboot was a dud in terms of viewership, but it made Warner a nice amount of money by reinvigorating the brand's licensed goods business.
> PPG needs to be rebooted
Agreed
Make that high school PPG idea come to life.
No, they should make that Teen Titans/Super Robot Monkey/Batman idea instead where it doesn't shy away from being darker and the girls telling the town to go frick itself and die.
I wanted to murder those townspeople in the future so fricking badly. It was so out of character for the girls who didn't let The Sandman have 1 night's of sleep, put an innocent clown in jail, made the professor steal toys in his sleep, downright rested on a cloud and told the townspeople to figure it out themselves. I fricking hate it when they blame themselves when it is the town's responsibility to handle its own bullshit. You never hear Superman being told how to do it his job (inb4 somebody corrects me on that).
That's kind of the joke though. They want to live in the town with the professor, so they have to humor the townspeople in some way. Otherwise they would have let Mojo flatten it.
It's not really a joke. It was almost a joke when they yelled at the mayor out of anger because Mojo broke their deal and stole the candy jar.
They always pull the goodie two shoes and "nooo I blame myself" bullshit exactly when they shouldn't, almost like Craig sabotaging his own show. And then he proceeds to do the opposite exactly when he shouldn't like the clown part, albeit that was on the executives no the creatives (or so they say to pretend to save face, same for the feminist episode).
I fricking hated the episode where Blossom steals the golf clubs and they go with "lol crime doesn't pay" meanwhile you wreck the entire fricking city and they save your ass from evil geniuses 24/7 and supposedly enact statues of them and parades which cost a shit ton and you're telling me you can't give them the fricking golf clubs? Suck my dick, Craig. You and your self-pitying, self-humiliating "humour" go have a nice day, McCracken. It's something I noticed with a lot of comedy writers, they never fricking know it's right to be a careless butthole and when it isn't right to be moralgayging idiots.
Just switch the whole setting to the butthole city that whined about the PPG destroying the bridge for one bank robber and be done with it if you really want to go that "I fricking hate this town" plot. No need to flip-flop about it.
>and you're telling me you can't give them the fricking golf clubs?
They didn't ask. She stole.
Craig I will fricking kick you in your barren nuts till you don't have them.
Anyone betting Craig is in the thread right now? I wonder if Faust will go to PPG and Fosters or she hates the concept of those shows and hates having to work under Craig on HIS ideas with HIS execution.
Because if Craig doesn't someone else will.
Monkeys fricking paw
I’m guessing this will take place in a different timeline where Mac, Frankie, and Goo are older.
Hopefully we at least get to see cameos.
How old would Mac be by now?
How old he was in the original?
8 years old
He'd be 25-26 years old. Adult zoomer/youngest millennial age.
old enough to frick Frankie
>reimagined
>Adult Goo
I know a lot of black women with that exact same aesthetic. Best lays of my life.
pray tell, fren
>NOOO THIS CARTOON IS MADE FOR CHILDREN IM GOING INSANEEEE
Foster's was never a pre-school cartoon.
>take dead old franchise that kids have no idea what it is and reboot it for babies
Boy I sure do love Muppet babies. Craig is a hack I dont even know why they let him keep working i guess cause his used up prostitute sucks some israelite off. Wonder over yonder sucked and so has everything hes done since
Another baby-reboot after the monkey paw of Total Drama.
Frick. At least Foster's as a setting makes sense for that sort of thing but frick.
Well, hopefully it's still at least entertaining to watch as a parent line bluey.
>Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends will be reimagined as a preschool animated series with a new cast of preschool-aged imaginary friends.
I knew this was too good to be true.
FRICKING STOP WITH THE GOD DAMN BABY SPIN OFFS WHAT THE FRICK
WHY WONT THIS TREND FRICKING DIE
WE'VE HAD 40 YEARS OF STUPID FRICKING BABY SPINOFFS AND NOBODY LIKES THEM
It started with Muppet Babies, the only baby spin off people liked.
So you wouldn't want to watch Watchmen Babies?
I am suddenly overtaken by dread my favorite cartoons as a child will be rebooted into mongrel abominations for toddlers and have their legacies forever tainted. Is this what the original Teen Titans and PPG fans felt like?
Welcome to the club zoomie
Isn't Gumball getting a reboot?
Yes
It was announced along side the movie
I wonder what the all reboot voice actors are doing now lmao
Amanda Leighton got the best deal and is still getting roles, recently voicing Polly in Amphibia.
Natalie Palamidea still gets occasional voice gigs.
Kristen Li, honestly no clue.
>I wonder what the all reboot voice actors are doing now lmao
Amanda Leighton and Natalie Palamides are still voice acting in few cartoons, Kristen Li hasn't doing anything after 2019.
And just like those fans, you'll be mocked for having a problem with that.
WHO USED THE FRICKING MONKEY'S PAW?
>preschool animated series
>Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends will be reimagined as a preschool animated series with a new cast of preschool-aged imaginary friends
Good, Fosters works better as a preschool show (that's why Bendy, Cheese, Goofball and Royal Jerkface Bloo got a backlash)
>Preeschool reboot
A Foster's preschool series sounds like a fun idea, but there is literally no need to bring back The Powerpuff Girls after it got six fricking seasons, three specials, and a MOVIE.
If anything, I hope the response to this new announcement convinces Nick to revive a certain property of their own...
The list of Nick properties that could use a revival could fill a fricking small town.
Well Nick has been doing nothing but rely on existing IPs and pandering to nostalgia since they scared off potential creatives so maybe Jenny will have her chance.
As much as I love Jenny, you know they'd frick it up in the modern era.
They never will. Normalhomosexuals and TikTok people discovering the Zone flash and acting like it's some huge fricking offense will ruin anything for Jenny in the future. I'm surprised they're adding her to the 3rd Kart Racer.
She was also added to Smite and All Star Brawl via DLC
>Smite and All Star Brawl via DLC
Who cares?
Who cares about a kart racing game?
Wrong Anon, Anon.
And Brawl is when people suddenly decided that a line of dialogue (that made absolutely no sense out of the episode's context) was the developer making a reference to Zone. Normies will just start assuming using Jenny at all is a reference.
Nick is only reviving their POPULAR IPs. MLAATR was never popular and the fact that whole Zone fiasco even happened is proof of that
So this what The Modifyers' fate would have been had it ever been picked up.
Why does everyone think Zone has that much power? He's done plenty of parodies before. His parodies of Teen Titans didn't destroy their reputations. The only reputation I feel like he's truly destroyed is Ankha's from Animal Crossing, but that's just because she has no backstory, character, or even unique personality. People just think of his really good animations of her, SFW and NSFW because Nintendo refuses to do anything interesting with those characters. Furries also did porn of her long before him.
>His parodies of Teen Titans didn't destroy their reputations
Teen Titans was vastly more popular than MLAATR is why
>Foster's with no B*oo
That's supposed to be bad why?
HOLY SHIT ITS REAL, FOSTERS KINO IS BA-

yes. in the late '00s/early '10s, Fosters was heralded as one of the 2000s best cartoons. ....nowadays, not so much. but yea
>Preschool
>Reboot
I'll be honest, this is smarter than if they tried to force the original show's characters to be back. Especially since Foster's had a proper finale. Plus it means no Bloo (at least how he was written in the latter half of the show), Cheese, or Goo.
The real elephant in the room is that Tom Kane (Utonium AND Herriman) can't return to either because he's now a vegetable.
>Herimann
>Monkey Fist
>Darwin
>Magneto which was an impression of Ian McKellen
Tom Kane sure loved his British accents.
>Frankie will be the same age as before taking care of the daycare of shota imaginary friends
Imagine the fanart
christ I thought the whole CN going toddler thing was a meme
you haven't checked the guide in the morning haven't you? they literally took shows originally aired on PBSkids
really?
whatever sattelite provider you have, check guides and look at the programming from 6 to 12. also i heard they are making we baby bare bears ?
>The Powerpuff Girls reboot will expand on the original series with Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup set to go head-to-head with franchise favorite villains as well as new threats. The original series debuted in 1998 and won two Emmys during its 78-episode run.
>Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends will be reimagined as a preschool animated series with a new cast of preschool-aged imaginary friends. The original series, for kids a bit older, ran for six seasons on Cartoon Network and won six Emmys of its own.
The "new threats" will be republicans, and the girls will all be revealed as trannies.
The powerpuff girls one sounds more like a sequel than a reboot, I’m actually looking forward.
Yes, but will it have Jared Shapiro?
Great to see Genndy and Craig reunite together.
Hopefully they can get back Maxwell Atoms and Tom Warburton.
Warburton but no way is Maxwell Atoms coming back while Michael Ouweleen (the Harvey Birdman creator who reportedly called Maxwell's works "hateful fart cartoons" in front of a whole group of CN people) is in charge of the network.
Max fricked it up even worse by spilling the beans publicly, which is a shame.
It is definitely happening.
Is that Sam Hyde?
HOLY SHIT??
HOLY FRICK
Is Cartoon kino back on the menu?
see
Oops ignore the name. I was previously responding to the normagay.
Foster's will end up being another soulless show like Craig
PPG will flop
I wonder how they will find someone that’s able to replicate Tom Kane?
John O’ Hurley.
I have no faith in these projects.
So the CW PPG was quietly canned, right?
>2 reboots in the span of a decade
Fricking hell...
Didn't half of CW get sold off for literally $0 recently?
CW never made money
It's still in the works
>A live-action reboot based on the original Powerpuff Girls Cartoon Network series remains in development at the CW. The network announced last year that the pilot was being re-worked and re-piloted off cycle.
https://deadline.com/2022/07/powerpuff-girls-fosters-home-for-imaginary-friends-animated-series-reboots-craig-mccracken-hanna-barbera-studios-europe-1235071571/
Theres no way the CW show is going to actually air.
The initial script leaks were so shitty they were instantly turned into shitposting memes by everyone on the internet. That damage + the PPG CN Reboot must have been absolutely abysmal for the PPG brand that they had to beg gennedy to come back
5 dollars says Frankie's going to be black in the reboot.
she'll probably get BLACK'D though
>PPG
>Foster's
Chowder reboot when?
Don't give them ideas because it will end up being a preschool show that teaches kids about cooking.
>a preschool show that teaches kids about cooking.
that really wouldn't be THAT bad.
i like the sound of that
We better actually get the fricking Rowdyruffs in this one
Sometimes dead is better.
If Craig is in charge, I hope he can also get some of the old crew, if this work company might realize that completely altering products doom them too fail and that creator and writers of the original are necessary
Will the Fosters reboot have /ss/?
The question is, will Frankie be in it?
As a babysitter maybe?
>reboots
no
>he can use his ppg clout to create a popular series on the internet
>still wants to work at the bankrupt legacy networks
why
I'm guessing he saw how Maxwell Atoms floundered with Dead Meat and decided not to take his chances.
>boomer doesn't know how to use the internet
do these people live sheltered lives ?
Dead Meat failed because of voice actor union bullshit which didn't seem to effect any other indie production that uses SAG actors
>David Feiss did an interview recently about Cow and Chicken’s 25th anniversary
>was upset that CN ditched his shows quickly and he still has more ideal left
>noticed that all of the contemporaries Cartoon Cartoons (Dexter, Johnny Bravo, PPG, Courage) got revived one way or another while C&C hasn’t been touched since 1999
>this happens 3 days later
MAN! He must be seething
Oh man, poor guy. I really liked both his shows. He deserves better.
He gets money from the Funko Pops, right?
Do you think CN views Cow and Chicken the same way they view Maxwell with Billy and Mandy? A hateful fart cartoon?
>Genndy was just the beginning
Oh boy.
Genndy still made two original shows after one season of Samurai Jack though. I would have preferred it Craig made new shows.
Honestly I think the reason Craig is doing this is because he doesn't want anyone else to reboot his shows for a while, like he couldn't have been happy with the live action shit and unlike Genndy he probably doesn't have the statues or connection in Warner to tell them "No" so it's probably the best bet to keep his creations safe by making the reboot himself.
But he did and nobody watched them
I see Gennedy is using his clout to bring back in the old dogs. Based
just make something NEW. jesus fricking christ. not every fricking show needs a reboot.
Just be happy Craig is back with Genndy. It’ll be just like old times.
Yeah, now they can shill out of touch memes from 2007 in all their reboots together
Nobody has any imagination left and the few good original things either get canceled by the twitter mob or co-opted by shippers.
Blame CN catering to overly nostalgic manchildren who can't let go of the fact that their favorite childhood cartoons have ended for decades.
>Dexters Lab reboot
Good luck trying to find someone that can do Mandark again.
Why not the Justice Friends?
Mandark and Dexter, since Dexter's VA passed away years ago.
Even before she passed away Candi Milo had already taken over as the voice of Dexter from the Savino seasons onwards.
Dexter got replaced when Savino took over anyway
Can't replace Mandark since his voice is iconic and his VA is in prison
Can't Nancy Cartwright do Dexter? I could've sworn she's done him before.
You're thinking of Candi Milo, Nancy took over her other other role, Chuckie.
In hindsight, they really should have switched roles.
Oh shit, you're right. Thanks Anon.
What happened to Deezen?
Got arrested after causing a public disturbance, throwing shit at cops and running around in his underwear.
Galactic Kids Next Door would be great.
...scrap everything else.
BUT WE WANT QUALITY 90s cartoons and reboots done by quality people. It's those shit as frick executives who refuse to put budget into all the good webtoon comics I see and refuse to keep in touch and respect the original creator or hire new fresh PROVEN talent that hasn't proved that they're mentally moronic like Alex Hirsch, Rebecca Sugar, Pendletton Ward and the list of absolute imbeciles worse than a normal cartoon watcher goes on and on.
Why aren't they hiring Titmouse? why aren't they hiring the team behind Green Eggs n Ham? Why aren't they hiring the chick behind Chikn Nuggit as an animation director?
I agree, but it's ironic that you used Daisy. I can't even think of how many times Mickey and Donald's crew have been rebooted, retooled, and remixed.
CN is making all of this new stuff right this second. will you be watching?
Unicorn is literally the only one of these that looks remotely good.
Are these still happening? It's been over a year now, and we haven't gotten any updates.
These look like Nick shows.
Battu is still in development, hasn't been greenlit as a full series yet
no official word on Gross Girls but it hasn't started production yet so it either was sent back into dev or got scrapped
All of those look like garbage from an art style and conceptual level. Even the Harmony in Despair show.
I'd rather they put funds into a dozen non-anime Webtoon comics I've read.
Everything half way down looks like it belongs on nuPBS
Except for "Dang! It's dracula" which despite the title looks like a Batman show, "Off the Menu" which looks like Cow and Chicken x Spongebob and the show below that that looks like modern CN/Disney.
>JJ VIllard
Can't imagine him making anything kid-friendly after his stint on Adult Swim.
Yeah.
God who named these shows? A good number of them have some god awful names. I'd cancel a show just for the names alone.
how do they even come up with a title in the first place
It's usually "Name*", "Name & Name", "Name, Name & Name", "Adjective Name", "The Adventures of Name", "Group Name", "The Main Location" or "Name/Established Title: TAS".
*Protagonist's
Sadly it has to be because CN has fricked up so much with new entries that it's hard to pitch anything new to execs. that's why they're stuck in reboot and rerun hell.
This is mainly due to the fact that new series do TERRIBLE on cartoon network and so they are very wary on green lighting anything beyond a pilot. They had a couple of hits out of the dozens of failures over the past 20 years and those properties can still generate them cash so they wouldn't pass up an opportunity to stay ahead.
>BUT CRAIG IS BACK AT DISNEY LAD!!!
>BUT HE WILL NEVER COME BACK TO CN!!!
HAHAHAHHAHA
HAHAHAHAHA
CN will get the spiritual successor to Wander
MARK
MY
WORDS
Kid Cosmic already exists anon.
there was one disney shill that post every single time that craig was back at disney
That doesn't change what I said. It's amazing how Disney gets under people's skin so easily.
>Craig goes with CN instead of Disney
>instead of working on original shows it's just legacy products
This doesn't feel like winning.
Kid Cosmic was his passion project, I think he's happy to just retread old stuff now
>instead of working on original shows it's just legacy products
Genndy came back with Samurai Jack at first then he did Primal and now Unicorn
Craig will do the same i bet. Don't be surprised if Faust is also back with a new show in the future.
That was just one season though and just wrap up the main storyline. These are two whole rebooted shows coming right after KC.
She'll probably try re-pitching her witch show if Netflix isn't sitting on the rights.
>Dilworth pitched multiple Courage projects to CN
>all of them get rejected
>they made a shitty Scooby Doo crossover behind his back
>meanwhile PPG gets milked beyond belief with the creator back
Why is CN like this? Dilworth got fricked.
It’s because Dilworth is a old man losing his mind and a huge bigot lmao
>he literally spends time “observing” kids on the playground
dilworth needs help, he’s clearly not in a right mental state
Based
>being a groomer is based
The groomer part, obvs not.
But bigot? Based
>Kevin Piastra
>Bitter crazy fanboy trying to defame Courage’s legacy.
Frick off shill.
>I DONT LIKE THE LITERALLY WHO BEHIND THE VIDEO, SO IM GOING TO INGORE WHAT DIL SAID
Dilworth was working on his animated short for a while now.
Last one he made he completely deleted from the internet before I got to see it.
>Watches kids at the park
>Taking a long time to make his animated short
>Blacklisted from the industry
>Bigot
>Scammer
Dilworth is officially the next John K?
Will you please frick off you spamming schizo homosexual. This thread has nothing to do with that anyway.
from the industry
Since when?
There no sources, but considering that Warner Bros could get Craig and Genndy back, but not Dil for a Scooby Doo crossover seems kinda suspicious
>not Dil for a Scooby Doo crossover seems kinda suspicious
Wasnt it because he did not want to be part of that crossover ?
>but not Dil for a Scooby Doo crossover seems kinda suspicious
You're acting like they didn't try. They asked and he wasn't for it. That's why Maxwell Atoms didn't go either, because Dil wasn't joining in.
Since his predatory behavior became known probably, you don’t want a hire someone who admits to watching children at a park.
It's really not fair, even if Dilworth's gone weird.
I thought it was pretty clear that Dilworth was a weird frick, you'd have to be to make something like Courage. Also Courage had a perfect ending. After saving his new family from the person that ripped his old family away from him, that little homie went even further and conquered his own inner-demons, achieving self-actualization. Not sure where you could take the series after that unless it's like Courage's kid or something.
>Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends will be reimagined as a preschool animated series with a new cast of preschool-aged imaginary friends
So there's still a chance to see older versions of the characters
Pretty sure they’ll make Goo a lesbian.
Good, that just improves the chances of a Frankie/Mac endgame.
They might actually get away with that if he’s shown as an adult.
I'd say something like that could never happen, but Fairly Odd Parents came back and made Vicky and Crocker and thing so who fricking knows anymore?
So how long have you two been together?
>A long time!
How long ago?
>Years ago!
...No I mean when did you first become a thing?
>A long while back!
Why? I haven’t seen the show in a while, but nothing about her screamed dyke, she was mostly le quirky girl
It's her shirt being a rainbow, literally the only reason.
If this takes place in the future then Madame Foster is most likely dead and I assume the new owner of the house is Frankie.
>Madame Foster is still in, occasionally someone questions how she's still around but is shushed
>It's actually an imaginary friend who looks like Madame Foster either Frankie or someone else made to cope with her death
I hope Mac and Frankie have are shown taking care of their kid together.
I’m surprised he decided to work on two reboots but given one is meant for pre-schoolers they’re gonna be completely different shows. Seeing PPG under Craig again is going to be very interesting, they’re gonna have to recast the Professor since Tom Kane retired
The Professor and Him, he voiced them both.
will Cinemaphile finally admit teen titans go is the most influental cartoon of the decade?
I thought that was stephen universe
PPG 2016 tanked so hard they had to ask Craig to come back
Warburton is next
CN will unironically get all his biggest creators back
>his
my only question is, will this man finally get a nice night of sleep?
He hasn't slept in over 20 years
>PPG in the back
HOW DID I NEVER SEE THIS?!
dexter is also in ppg
Never.
Preschool kids about to get their first boner
Oh shit i didn't think about that lol. i'm gonna feel so old when some kid says frankie was his first cartoon crush. would also be pretty funny considering she was one of my first too.
BONER! BONER! TIME FOR DINNER!
Oh God, it's gonna be Nick Brawl with Jenny all fricking over again.
>CN bringing back vet crews
I’m worried CN will try to get EEnE reboot one way or the other and might do it the way Nick did with Hillenburg.
Given how pissed Danny was with Netflix canning Lupo, he might want to reboot EEnE out of spite.
Danny Antonucci tried to make a show for Netflix based on his Lupo the Butcher short but it got cancelled due to creative differences. Nobody knows what he’s up to right now
>CN bringing back vet crews
They shoo offed 3 of them last year
Cool, that dosn’t excuse some of the stuff he said, it’s most likely he was blacklisted in the industry
>Wait until Danny's dead
>Get the rights with some legal magic
>Double D is a black gay they/them
>Ed is a trans woman
>Eddy is latino
Well its that time again
Time to save the cartoon industry again
Dont be surprised if tons of Netflix cartoonist fly to CN
Swear to god if McCracken cucks to the "modern style"
He won't. Mark my words.
Are you guys really expecting the new animators to be decent ?
Last thing McCracken did was this
How does that predict anything ? He would have an entirely new team at CN. The new guys might be shittier.
The animation in that cartoon looks good
Is he going to have that team of animators available with him in the reboot or not ?
>implying you know who decides the production team
Worked with Rise of the TMNT
Even nuPPG was able to reenact the old style in a flash back which just proves the new style is out of spite.
Despite all the memes, his last show didn't really conform to the modern style and he can still draw the Powerpuff Girls normally so I don't think there's anything to worry about.
>Craig tweets this a couple of months ago
>wastes no time rebooting his shows afterward
how many dumpster trucks full of money do you think WB drove over to his house lmao
Well, he didn't say he DIDN'T want to reboot any of his older stuff. Indeed, seems he's saying that's the only way he could get more work since studios don't want new stuff.
also with how much of a dumpster fire the last PPG reboot was I think he was kinda itching to try and fix it
Will he spend an episode to shit on the reboot?
>We are getting Powerpuff Girls Super, like with Toriyama
Is this good or bad?
They better get the original VAs. I can see Tara Strong throwing a goddamn FIT if she isn't contacted this time.
I hope the 2016 girls come back and voice Berserk, Brate, and Brute.
So it was his decision to make a pre school reboot with foster ?
CN definitely approached him about rebooting them instead of the other way around.
I'm certain he wouldn't want a hackjob shit show like PPG2016 again. They probably would've gone ahead with it without him had he declined or was busy elsewhere
No doubt they were the ones who approached him. They knew about the backlash for PPG16, most companies do, but I'm willing to bet it flopping in the domestic market and underperforming everywhere else when the original was their original money maker was what really set them off.
Same goes to the Ben 10 reboot to a lesser extent.
>but I'm willing to bet it flopping in the domestic market and underperforming everywhere else when the original was their original money maker was what really set them off.
from what I've heard while the 2016 reboots for PPG and Ben 10 both underperformed here in the US, they actually did rather well internationally, kinda like how barely anyone gives a shit about We Bare Bears in the US but it was huge in South Korea
>they actually did rather well internationally,
Not really? I mean they both did better than they did in the US but they weren't the smash hit WBB was. PPG 2016 went through its order of 75 episodes and they didn't order more after that meaning it flopped badly. Not sure about Ben 10 since there was a lot of changes to it as it went on.
Maybe after one month or 2 we can finally get a new galaxy KND trailer
A happening like this in Cinemaphile‘s schizoposting era gives me mixed feelings. Also being jerked around with rebooted franchises for 30 years.
What’s the silver lining here. That I guess kids will enjoy quality cartoons, and that’s good enough for me even if I don’t engage any further.
1. Craig is back so the PPG reboot in particular might actually be great
2. PPG 2016 and PPG CW are dead
>PPG 2016 dead
It’s been dead years ago.
What's the catch?
I don't believe for a single fricking second CN cares about these shows,
And Craig's luck has been shit these last 10 years.
Money. These shows were super popular and raked in some merchandise so that makes them the perfect IPs to exploit.
>I don't believe for a single fricking second CN cares about these shows
CN has been trying to make PPG a thing again the past decade because it's a merch powerhouse
Of course they give a shit about this
No they don't. They care about the money sure, but not the actual shows or their creators, or legacies, or are you already willing to hide 2016 PPG under the rug? Or that dogshit live action script that was leaked, that's probably shit canned by now with any luck
Bring back the boob lady
I think he'll do it.
Can anyone trust Craig after the 10th anniversary special turned out?
That special was great, though.
If anything, the new reboot will be like that special
Just watch it at like 0.5 speed and it's a great episode. CN for some reason sped it up to keep it under 22 minutes and Craig confirmed this.
>Modern cartoons are already fricking garbage and now their goal is to destroy every single good cartoon made before 2010
Just fricking kill me already
>nobody watches network cartoons anymore
that's why they're bringing old cartoons
Most of the people who grew up with these shows don't care about children's cartoons anymore.
And we don't want that soulless garbage either
Just do fricking reruns
I don't know; this can either end up like Mike Judge and his B&B revival or like Klasky Csupo and the Rugrats reboot.
Given CN's history with PPG in the past, it leans towards the latter.
>Cartoon Network Studios, Warner Bros. Animation, and Hanna-Barbera Studios Europe president Sam Register said in a release: “The Hanna-Barbera homecoming of Craig was an opportunity we could not pass up. Along with his unparalleled sense of fun and imagination, he’s bringing two of his greatest works in The Powerpuff Girls and Foster’s Home for Imaginary Friends and we are so excited for these characters to be a part of the new legacy taking shape at the studio.”
BASED Sam. first he signed Genndy to an exclusive deal with WB a few months ago, then he made sure to snatch Craig up as soon as Netflix Animation imploded. one of the smartest execs in the business
Is he the guy that shit on Billy and Mandy ?
No, that’s a different guy
no that's Michael Ouweleen. different guy
surname sounds like a variation of queef
Can the keep Kristen Li as Bubbles? I really liked her.
No, frick off.
So does anyone know when the gumbal movie is gonna come out ?
>Foster's Home
No way he can frick this up because the show was crappily written anyway (outside of the 2, 3 parters and movies)
>PPG
I'm sure Craig went soft these past 20 years and he will require Genddy to work his Primal energy into PPG again despite the fact Craig is much more inventive with the ability-based powers than Genddy is. Genddy focuses more on the hand to hand choreography than super powers.
Eh let's be honest, Foster Home was never great.
the entire show was bland
It was mid. I'm not bothered by the baby spin-off.
Not that big of a the show but I still roll my eyes at what is clearly soulless cash grab. How hard is it to make a preschool show?
Like McCracken said, the studios are scared of anything original right now.
I'm rather convinced preschool shows are simply an industry necessity to employ people and fill in timeslots so they pick whatever old IP has potential and is unlucky enough to be chosen
Most of Craig's stuff IS bland. He's got a great eye for design, timing with gags and cheesy 90's dialogue, but his stuff is unmemorable writing wise.
Kid Cosmic is basically dead. No one cared about it ultimately.
>but his stuff is unmemorable writing wise.
PPG and Wander had great writing and concepts. This only really applies to Foster's which shar the bed in terms of writing
THEY BETTER GIVE US MILF FRANKIE OR WE RIOT!!!!
>Hasn’t had another cartoon after the 90s.
>His show helped launch the careers of Butch Hartman, Seth MacFarlene and Maxwell Atoms (who would help launch the careers on Greenblatt, and Browngardt).
>Has been working at SPA and Illumination movies for at least three decades.
Will he finally get thrown a dog bone Cinemaphile?
>David Feiss
>Working for Sony Animation and Illumination
Wtf never heard of this before. What movies did he work in?
Open Season franchise
He directed the 3rd Open Season movie and was a storyboard artist on several others
Because he's one o' them gays what hates lesbians, carpet munchers got him black listed.
BUT WHAT ABOUT MS.BELLUM
>Fosters Home
Meh...the fact that they're rebooting it for kids seems redundant since it started as a general audience show before becoming increasingly cynical as it went on but even then I don't think ever went above ages 7 and up.
>PPG
Even with Craig coming back I'm still cautious given his last work on the series was the 10th anniversary special and the series has just not been in good hands since but still this feels like such a desperate move after the 2016 reboot fiasco and whatever the frick that live action shit was about. My biggest worry is that it'll lose all its edge and wit the original had since modern CN don't really care about action shows anymore and Wander and Kid were pretty light as is so yeah pretty conflicted.
>Frankie is back and as attractive as ever
>She's also lesbian now
Thoughts?
she was as straight as a whistle in the original show, also she’s based on Lauren, so no.
Into the trash she goes.
It's so weird how we're lacking in well written fictional heterosexual women nowadays. Like man, the fact that they might make Frankie bi would be so fricking annoying.
Craig wouldn't make his wife's self insert a lesbian anon. Also she's probably going to write on the show anyway so that really won't happen.
>Hanna Barbera Studios Europe
Is HB not doing anything stateside anymore, or are they hoping to avoid influence from activists this time around?
Um, like, yikes
This thread is full of so much manbaby negativity I can't even
People are like, allowed to like things you know
These are just for kids, stop taking it so seriously and being so toxic
I think these new reboots are so stunning and brave
>sarcastic tumblr post
Your problem is you think the legitimately mentally ill tabloid-addicts pedaling conspiracy theories and looking for excuses to be outraged about every cartoon creator represent normal cartoon fans.
This. Normal cartoon fans love reboots and are excited for something like this.
You are the exact moron that post was mocking.
I’m aware Captain Obvious. That’s why I replied.
I’m not defending soulless company practices. Even loving the original PPG, I doubt I’ll watch this just because of reboot fatigue. The problem is these threads exclusively revolve around kiwifarms-tier autism that always succeed in making anons look even more deranged and pathetic than the shows they’re talking about. Announcements like this are like never-ending shots of adrenaline for spergs shitting up the board and I’m beyond tired of it.
What is up with that fricking ponytail-topknot?
People hate this guy for Thundercats Roar, but looking back, he never once responded or bad mouth any criticism
I don’t think he even has a social media
I'm pretty (almost) sure that most people think that Nico Colaleo guy is the one who made the show since he was at the front lines defending that shit like his life depended on it, along with some others. The actual creators seem pretty chill and I feel legitimately awful for them, even if their show is shit.
That new Driftwood show of his looks somewhat decent. I'd laugh if the guy responsible for shitty adaptions of two properties turn it around with an original IP.
Teen titans go made an episode where they made the whole team seem bitter and the creator had to come out and say he didn't write the episode
>Craig is Mcfricking back
>real PPG is back
LETS FRICKING GOOOOOOOOOOOO-
>FHFIF get's babified
Oof, L for Franky gays I guess.
>Foster's reboot.
Do we REALLY need this?
No, of course not.
The Current Year literally has nothing but the past to fall back on, doesn't it?
Millennials and zoomers really have failed as creatives.
Zoomers have barely even started entering said work forces anon, most Zoomers are either in college or at low ranking positions in said fields.
Wonder what a zoomer dominant industry would look like compared to a millennial one.
I’m imagining shows that are borderline moronic but undeniably full of passion. Seeing stuff like the Gentleminions raids has given me hope that a Zoomer-led future will be more entertaining than Millennials.
Hard to say, I think Zoomers are less fixated on identity and the sense of standing out then Millennials but like to describe what "zoomers are like" is really hard. It's kinda like trying to answer what "American culture is like" especially when your part of said group.
>i think zoomers are less fixated on identity
LOL
If millennials were obsessed with noncomformity then a zoomer dominant industry will be about comformity meaning every show will be the same shit.
Most millennial shows are the same shit already.
Not really. One thing you have to give credit is the variety of distinct shows that's out now. In fact the most common failures from this decade were rip-offs of popular IPs which were essentially all the range in the 80's and 90's.
>One thing you have to give credit is the variety of distinct shows that's out now.
I mean, how many shows have we had that tried the same Gravity Falls or Steven Universe formula.
>how many shows have we had that tried the same Gravity Falls or Steven Universe formula.
Not a lot actually. The formulas for those shows didn't even originate from them and the reason why its spawned copycats is because the people who worked on them went on to make their own shows and took what they learned from them into it (Amphibia for example was from a GF alumni.)
>One thing you have to give credit is the variety of distinct shows that's out now.
Define distinct. I mean I agree if you say it's better than the 60s, 70s and even 80s, but I draw the line if you say 92-2006 shows weren't a shit ton more distinct than the 2010s and soon to be 2020s
>but I draw the line if you say 92-2006 shows weren't a shit ton more distinct than the 2010s and soon to be 2020s
The 90's is just as guilty as that especially after Ren and Stimpy became an overnight sensation. Why do you think when people think of 90's cartoons they immediately think of grossout kids shows?
90s also had the Fox channel and was full of quality Warner Brothers shows. It was kinda like Disney, CN, Nick vs Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Monkey Kid, The Hub, the French channel, other productions. Because of Netflix we can't completely say the 2010s was nothing but bean mouth style when we have stuff like Star Wars Rebels, The Dragon Prince, Korra, etc. but Disney was obsessed with pushing all its good shows to the side and promoting beanmouth style.
>90s also had the Fox channel
Which is mostly remembered for its Japanese imports and The Simpsons which did a lot of damage to the perception of adult animation
>quality Warner Brothers shows
Those shows were similar to one another because they were mostly spin-offs with the same staff working on them.
Those are true millennials, not these pseudo millennial-zers who are obsessed with censorship and "muh fee fees, don't tell me I can't write and draw you're being le evil and here's my made-up word for me to describe you"
True millennials are those who enjoy The Matrix content, not lol-so-randumb youtube poops and Legos, those are zoomers. Zoomers have a "don't give a frick" irresponsible mentality full of bad taste while millennials have a naturally "worry about everything, be a perfectionist, and ultimately do the same exact fricking mistakes you were trying to avoid because you're an utter hypocritical imbecile with no standards, no taste, no experience.".
Will it actually be good though?
That depends. Do zoomers consume good content.
As one anon pointed out, it's hard to define a zoomer. The early zoomers aren't that much different from late millennials in terms of influence. People conflate all zoomers with the latter half.
>Millennials grew up on dial-up internet, newgrounds, and anime
>Zoomers grew up on tiktok, twitter and covid
What do you think?
>Zoomers grew up on tiktok, twitter and covid
This was Gen Alpha actually.
grew up on shit, cringe, and shitty cringe
>Zoomers grew up on modern myspace, modern facebook and Swine Flu 2.0
I don't see a single difference homosexual.
Well how different are fanfics written between the two?
The issue isn't your generation boogieman dingus, it's the suits at the top not wanting to take chances or invest in original IPs so they're just taking old things and running them to the ground.
>The issue isn't your generation boogieman dingus
It is.
The question is why they're so reboot happy even in comparison to earlier decades.
The suits at the top are the millennials you dingus. Either millennials or gen-X(which are 50+ years old now) trusting to hire millennials who have no fricking clue what they're doing.
There's so many good webcomics out there which could prove a million times better as The Next Simpsons and instead all we get is more Cal Arts garbage being pushed by these morons as if Cal Arts is something to aspire and there's nothinge else and nothing better than Cal Arts. Cal Arts is the only thing that's getting proper promotion.
This, typical white boomer scapegoat to blame the younger generation for everything wrong when they are the ones still in power and forcing 100 year old out dated shit onto society because "old good new bad".
PPG only existed for two decades.
>"old good new bad".
So where are the celluloid 86s cartoons and the digital 2000s XTREME cartoons then, zoomer?
>So where are the celluloid 86s cartoons and the digital 2000s XTREME cartoons then, zoomer?
It's called "anime".
Funny how Japan is still stuck in the 2000s , almost all of their cartoons (except for the moe slice of life shit) looks like something made in the 2000s (but shinier)
have you not seen anime from the early 00s?
Rocket Power is an anime?
>Him is now called Them
>character otherwise left intact
How would you react?
Looks like all those lore shows do was set cartoons back into preschool age. Fantastic.
Another fricking PPG reboot? Really?
>PPG
>PPGZ
>PPG 2016

>And now this
Four fricking reboots, tone it down holy shit i don't care if Craig returns i'm sick of this ip, tho this announcement makes 2016 a more worthless cashcow than it already is
It's the only Pre-Adventure Time Cartoon Network original normos actually care about
The Eds would like a word, but danny has that on lock and doesnt want to see current cn tarnish it.
In general the original Cartoon Cartoons plus Ben 10 are well known among general audiences. Not sure why people are acting as if CN was super underground before AT.
The frick are you talking about, 90's-early 00's CN shows were popular among normies too.
Even Chowder got a shout out in that one Lil Nas X song.
>shout-out
Anon you know the entire song was based around the character right?
>90's-early 00's CN shows were popular among normies too.
Nobody cares about Cow and Chicken, Courage, Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo, Mie, Lu and Og, Billy and Mandy, KND, Gym Partner, Chowder and Flapjack
Indeed not as much as Power Rangers, Batman, Spiderman, not even as much as Fantastic Four, Superman, etc. and definitely not even 1% as much as Harry Potter and Star Wars.
CN are completely incompetent at handling an IP, more incompetent than Hasbro. (even Hasbro at least took care of Transformers, what did CN take care of? Scooby Doo?)
>Indeed not as much as Power Rangers, Batman, Spiderman, not even as much as Fantastic Four, Superman, etc. and definitely not even 1% as much as Harry Potter and Star Wars.
Not a super mega IP=/=unknown to the general public
>Not a super mega IP=/=unknown to the general public
Yeah man people sure do care a lot Mike Lu and Og
>one example
Plenty of people know and care about Johnny Bravo, Dexter's Lab, and Ed Edd n Eddy.
>Johnny Bravo
No

No
>Ed Edd n Eddy
Yes
>Edgay

People speak more on the ed's tv movie as being the best finale for a cn series than anything those other shows did.
>7 episodes
now split dexter to gendy/savino era
didn't someone from EE&E kill himself over drug overdose?
Nah, he choked on a jawbreaker.
This. That's why PPG 2016 was such an embarrassing frick up because that was the only mainstream original IP they had and they ruined it. Nick is doing the same shit with Rugrats only instead on universal hate its just indifference.
Even Nick at least bothers "respecting" their IPs a little by turning them into endless cashcows like The Simpsons, Family Guy, South Park. CN doesn't do that (for the better or for the worse)
Definitely for the better and that's the constant reboots suck.
Isn't Nick the company that waited for the creator of Spongebob to die before announcing a pre-school reboot of the show because he was against it?
Yes....they're probably the same people who grew up watching it and disrespected his wishes while the older generation probably stood by it until none of them remain.
lets say things got so bad even the script was terrible.
imagine if PPG were called the KickAssGirls or whatever the original pitches were.
Kamp Koral was already being produced before Stephen died
I've been saying this for years. Say what you will about Nick and Disney, but at least they they're older legacy IPs with SOME kind of respect, albeit based more on squeezing them dry and sucking any ounce of soul they once had.
You'd be hard pressed to find anyone who isn't part of cartoon fandom who gives a shit about Dexter's Lab or EEnE or even Courage, or anyone who knows what 2 Stupid Dogs is, or Sheep in the Big City
PPG and Ben 10 really are the only shows that could be considered 'iconic' for CN.
>brand visibility and merchandising is a sign of respect for an IP
It disgusts me how corpo this board can be.
I didn't say it was a good thing, I'd like more attention if only to get the series some proper fricking representation, Megas is pratically disowned by them and you can't fricking watch it anywhere in English speaking countries. But like I already mentioned the flip side to that is being drained of any intergrity they once had.
AT is them forcing it more than anything, but then again the same thing can said for all this
>Megas is pratically disowned by them and you can't fricking watch it anywhere in English speaking countries.
There's no practically about it. They scrubbed that shit legally and even when it's now owned by WB there's so much red tape around it.
Adventure Time is an iconic CN show and they're also digging it up for more content
>Gym Partner, Chowder and Flapjack
These weren't from the 90s-early 00s.
>Nobody cares about Dexter's Lab, Courage, Billy and Mandy, KND, Chowder
homie, are you high? People ate these shows up.
See
He's talking about the popularity. How many peope know about those shows compared to Scooby Doo, Ben 10, Pokemon and Naruto? Hell I think Ben 10 might actually have most shows on CN beaten by popularity. And of course it was a Warner Brothers + Action Man produced show, not something in-house and owned fully by CN.
No CN definitely owns Ben 10 outright and have made several shows without MoA's involvement.
>Hell I think Ben 10 might actually have most shows on CN beaten by popularity.
Maybe the original but by the time Omniverse was conceived it was bleeding numbers and wasn't popular anymore. The reboot didn't make any waves either.
How successful was the Ben 10 reboot?
Not at all.
Courage flopped, even Camp Lazlo was more successful.
>Cow and Chicken
Somewhat true
>Courage, Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo
All wrong
>Mie, Lu and Og
True
>Billy and Mandy, KND
Wrong
>Gym Partner, Chowder and Flapjack
homie, those are mid to late 00's shows
>Courage, Dexter's Lab, Johnny Bravo
>All wrong
That's right zoom zoom, all of these shows are considered beloved classics by normies.
>all of these shows are considered beloved classics by normies.
Maybe in your dreams
Try to prove me wrong then zoomie.
>PPG had a theatrically released movies and several reboots and still gets merch
>All those shows listed has gotten nothing in fact they don't have complete DVD releases
Checkmate
That doesn't prove anything and as I said, PPG was the channel's biggest series.
You have no proof that those shows are loved by normies
People fondly remember them every time when they talk about this channel, old cartoons in general and the 90's.
PPGZ wasn't a reboot, moron.
Yes it was
>we're actually going to get confirmation and references to Ace being in the gorillaz
What a time to be alive
Holy shit I forgot about that. Still cracks me up every time.
Milf teacher Frankie and hopefully, one boy would have a crush on her.
Do you think that we would get a A Pup Named Scooby Doo reboot?
>Do you think that we would get a A Pup Named Scooby Doo reboot?
We're basically already getting one with 'Scooby Doo and the Mystery Pups' or whatever it's called
Isn't that just rebooting a reboot?
ANOTHER reboot?
At least McCracken’s back
Prefer if the girls are brought back older if they want to go further with the concept both story and character wise.
>Prefer if the girls are brought back older
No
We don't need them older, we just need them smarter and in charge. And we need story-progression and more proper episodes and story-relevant episodes like the girls being sick of having to protect the town full of idiots who don't appreciate them. I was really tired of seeing the girls be super geniuses one episode only to be easily naive 8 year olds in every single slice of life episode.
Could be fun
Making them 10 is the best case scenerio, or at least 8.
A lot of shows in the 2000s used 10+ characters on average, even anime when dubbed did the same, so it should work fine with the PPG. Making them 5 was more of a "haha toddlers kicking monster ass" which worked at the time, but since the original show did a great job with that, moving forward should introduce something new.
Was PPG really this much successful to justify so many reboots? Is it truly iconic?
It's probably Cartoon Network's biggest IP ever, I think only Adventure Time could give a run for its money popularity and influence-wise.
Isn't EEnE bigger? Even though it had nothing for merchandise.
>Tell us Craig is back for a new PPG reboot
>literally the same day also say that the live action PPG is still in development
FRICK
https://tvline.com/2022/07/18/powerpuff-girls-reboot-animated-original-series-creator-cartoon-network/
That israelite STILL isn't dead? man millennials really are PUSSIES.
This doesn't say anything about it still being in development.
Kylo was right
I hope we Craig finally makes that episode where the BTAS Joker comes to Townsville and Mayor sucks up to him because they never had a famous villain before
Looks like HnG is going to have huge competition.
>WoY reneval never ever
>Craig's new villain cartoon buried
>instead we're getting PPG no. 4 (including the live action version) and toddlerified Foster's
I hate reboots so much it's unreal.
>PPG no. 4 (including the live action version)
Scratch that. It's PPG no. 5, I forgot about the anime.
Technically PPG no. 5 if you count the anime series Z
If we're just looking at reboots it seems like recent times are overloaded, but Hollywood's been wringing the life out of any succesful IPs they've had for a long time. Just look at how many Friday the 13th, Freddy Krueger, and Ghost Busters shit got churned out back in the day.
>Craig's new villain cartoon buried
Please tell me more. This is the first time I've ever heard about this.
About a half a year ago, Craig said that he's pitching like 10 new show ideas to Netflix, and one of them appeared to have a villain protagonist.
Then shit hit the fan and Craig left Netflix, and apparently, now he's working for CN on two reboots of his old shows.
As it should be
Imagine being this doomer.
Man's stuck in a time loop. He'll make PPG and Foster's again, leave CN again and then get hired by Disney again to make WOY season 3 in 2028
https://twitter.com/CrackMcCraigen/status/1425251948555505666
^Found the tweet, it was twice as old as I remembered. Some time after this tweet happened, people started talking about Craig's villain cartoon as if it was going to be made, so I'm not sure if this was based on the tweet above or something else, because this tweet doesn't even specify if the pitch in question was focused on the villain, and there was also 9 other pitches.
STICKY THIS SHIT, IT'S REAL!!!
Not really worth a sticky when this is the fifth reboot in a row.
Why not just rerun episodes and make new shows?
Did anyone watch Kid Cosmic?
No, because it SUCKED.
I watched the first two seasons, need to finish the third.
I liked it well enough. Wasn't anything grand but it wasn't the worst way to pass an afternoon. I liked the first season more than the second.
That is an incredibly good question. What the frick is wrong with today's executive millennial-zers? why do they refuse to air old shows together with new shows when CN used to air fricking Tom & Jerry, Looney Tunes, Scooby Doo together with PPG, Dexter, Megas XLR, Samurai Jack, Ben 10 all together?
Instead they pulled off a Swat Kats "air for 1-2 year max then once it's over NEVER AIR IT AGAIN"
they do it this nowadays with every single fricking show, it's like they're mentally moronic 90s saturday morning villain communists "Oh we can't it keep on the air anymore because it doesn't have any new seasons to air" what kind of logic is that?
We have so much fricking content now that we could air for a whole decade. Please tell me who of you here remember Dan Vs, Motorcity, Tron Uprising, Kulipari, Generator Rex, the Guardiands of the Galaxy cartoon show?
Did you ask any zoomers if they know what Pirates of Dark Waters is? I don't think even millennials watched that show. Invasion America, Roswell Conspiracies, Men In Black cartoons? who the frick here watched those shows?
Why would you air again shows that didn't perform well?
This is your fricking mentality, really? they didn't perform well based on what? your idiocy?
For that matter stay here and let me ask you some barrage questions about this so called "Completely free cartoon shows which come in TV channel packages, TV which nobody watches anymore, somehow are suppose to make money" tell me how the frick do you think something you watch for free is suppose to make you money? a simple "I don't know" will suffice.
Am I the only one that's happy about this? They can learn their mistakes from the previous PPG reboot and I think Foster's can be done better. I really do.
Listen, I just want more of the girls and Frankie.
>Am I the only one that's happy about this?
Yes you are consoomer
I'm not a consoomer. I didn't really like the reboot (or actually anything besides the original PPG, that fricking awful anime included) or the original Foster's.
Not all reboots are bad, but I just think Cinemaphile is understandably jaded.
Frick that, give me Wander season 3.
>Cartoon Cartoons/CN envisioned as the new era of Hanna-Barbera
>20 years later and its subjected to the same fate of nonstop shitty revivals and garbage for babies
It's cool if McCracken really wanted to do this, but man... There's beauty in letting a good thing rest. Wasn't he the one who pleaded for CN to let him end The Powerpuff Girls originally? It had a solid run, became a lasting pop culture icon, and was already set to live on as one of the greats.
Really, my main takeaway from all this is it confirms we won't be getting a Wander Over Yonder revival anytime soon.
Wander should stay dead. That just was one of his weaker shows and he unironically thought Wander was going to be the next Spongebob. He needs to work on his animation, jokes, and main characters again if he wants to be seen as iconic again.
Also, the only good thing about Wonder Over Yonder was Lord Dominator.
You think Craig will bring Dominator back but name her something like Baron Overwhealmer and color her purple and make her a villain for the PPG to fight.
I would bow down.
Maybe, maybe not. He already did that in Kid Cosmic, except he made her a morbidly obese space kingpin with two heads...
I feel like he would've been better off picking two other characters to make gay Rowling style
Only if they're teaming up with Child Quasar.
There's so many webtoons out there each with their own distinct art style/designs and atmosphere/style of writing and no one, not a single fricking executive ever thought of giving these webtoons a show, these webtoons which already have the characters written, the story written from start to end, the world design thought up, basically the pitch bible already written and executed in practice. None of that theory bullshit about "Lol here's a few characters, some worlds, no story just a goal, lol now pretend that you trust me to write this in a quality manner when you have no clue who the frick I am and you're just hiring me based off nepotism which clearly yells "talentless imbecile who you should not waste precious resources on".
What's the chances of a lord Dominator like character and a kid cosmic like character being introduced into the series.
Based
Even if Craig does come back do any of you really think it's going to be like the original?
That they could get away with jokes like this?
Or this
The CN of yesterday isn't the same CN of today, despite how much they want you to believe they are
I want to believe this is going to be a return to form and be something great, I really do, but I've been burned by CN too many times to be exctied about this
moronic townsfolk was such a trope in these american shows, even WordGirl did it. At least for that show it kinda had a point because the whole Lexiconian teaching words angle, but in shows liek PPG is just seems to be just a way to paint the towns they defend are moronic just because.
Anon, the townsfolk being moronic was only part of the joke in that clip
But I'm saying this trope exist in a lot of American shows, especially around that time in participial.
>the black guy who keeps trying to eat dumplings with chopsticks and dropping them
It's the little things that make it great.
NO NO N-
>McCracken
Okay it MAY be better, but my hopes are still out. It could still be fricked up with executive meddling.
Executives should be paid to not touch anything with their grimy little hands, same for animation directors and writing editor chiefs who think they're hot shit. Today's generation should be paid to kill themselves and invest in designer babies.
What other CN shows that you feel ended too soon should get a new season, Cinemaphile?
I think more people should be more inclined to rebooting bad shows into something good instead of rebooting good shows. Robotboy had so much potential it deserves a 2nd chance.
All french shit is done in horrible Toonboom now so I'd rather not they reboot this
I always thought his name was Domino because of that 1 bumper song they did.
The show was infinitely worse written than My Life As A Teenage Robot which is saying something seeing as that show wasn't exactly The Last Airbender and Batman TAS.
I’d say Robotomy but I’m worried they might frick it up and get a completely different team.
Just give it to Adult Swim and make it the sister show to Ballmasterz.
If early 2010s CN couldn't handle this show show there's no way 2020s CN will do it justice.
Wasn't this show just Superjail but with robots so it was "kid friendly"?
>Haha we want the 2000s nostalgia! haha
Meanwhile there's actual untapped fresh original 90s nostalgia right here, but the executives don't give a frick to take their heads out of their asses and smell the roses.
There's so many cartoon show-looking comics out there and these Californian morons don't give a frick. All the smart people really did move onto video games and left the cartoons to nothing and a small minority of loud idiotic talentless beanmouth morons with the occasional talent from Titmouse and veterans.
New exclusive clip of the Foster's Home reboot just dropped. It's gonna be kino.
Foster's Home had a great setting that could have lent to a lot of socio-political-economic stories, but that would be too smart for the dumb as frick paint-by-the-numbers writers they had. Same for all those unused characters in the background.
>socio-political-economic stories
People can just summon imaginary friends out of fricking nothing. It's free slave labor. They can summon edible imaginary friends to eat. That cures world hunger.
Fricking Craig didn't put a limit on it when he conceived it.
They even poked fun at it by pointing out with that rich guy troll pretending to be rich that imaginary friends are suppose to be imaginary (in your head) ergo invisible, ergo it should had been like Jimmy Two Shoes where it's all happening inside his head and the cartoon chars don't really affect the people and environment, they just the person who imagines them suggestions/ideas/personalities to grow.
Most of the other imaginary friends didn't have much going for them anyways. It was better for them to focus on the core 8 instead of hundreds of one notes
Well, at least the creator is coming back to work on them. Hopefully they go back to the original 90s style with the Powerpuff Girls. An original CN star/classic.
I just want my fricking PPG vs RRB rematch and I want it good with all sorts of inventive powers. I wanted to see the PPG use their flaming cat power on the RRB.
Please please PLEASE give me more Bellum!
>Tom Kenny playing a hispanic character
Um, sweetie, that's problematic. Time for a recast.
Also Goo had white VA
>Cheese will be considered too ablest to return
Just like Crank Yankers 2019 not bringing back Special Ed
He won't return because doesn't fit in a preschool show
Cheese is practically an infant and was the face of the show and the network for a while
Isn't Tom Kenny hispanic?
No, he's absorbant.
Power puff girls recent reboot is still pretty 'recent'. At least this is them acknowledging that it was shitty.
>Craig McCracken
Holy frick, hopefully he will redeem the trash that was the newer ppg
Fosters was already a borderline toddlers show, so I'm not suprised
Craig said he watches that preschool show about dogs (Bluey?) with his daughter and that show seems to be unironically popular on this board, maybe he's gonna take inspiration from it.
Wonder what a No-Neck-Joe show would have been like?
>According to the Wall Street Journal, should the deal move to completion, Nexstar will have 75% control of The CW, with the remaining 25% stake of the network split evenly between Paramount and Warner Bros. Discovery at 12.5% each
They can still use that stake and get the license
Yeah but next start has zero interest in scripted programing. They just do news broadcasts
>2048
>go to HBO Max
>The Powerpuff Girls has its own section, where you can browse through The Powerpuff Girls to watch The Powerpuff Girls, The Powerpuff Girls Movie, The Powerpuff Girls (2016), The Powerpuff Girls Rule, The Powerpuff Girls Dance Pantsed, The Powerpuff Girls (2022), The Powerpuff Girls (2028), The Powerpuff Girls (2035), The Powerpuff Girls half-hour PSA special, The Powerpuff Girls Movie 2, The Powerpuff Girls Pre-School Daze, The Powerpuff Girls in Space, The Powerpuff Girls Shippuuden, The Powerpuff Girls Part 7 - Steel Ball Run and The Powerpuff Girls (2045)
Ironic how a cartoon made in response to toy driven shows in the 80s is now the 21st century equivalent of He-Man, Transformers and Ninja Turtles.
We can't let shit fricking rest can we?
>Lauren works on the PPG reboot
>it's a hit
>CN asks her to pitch them her own show
this is how we can still win, Toilbros and Troublesisters
>White hair
NOOOOOOO
>I wonder if my husband will give me a job...
This sounds so fricking wrong on so many levels.
Especially when you consider that she's an avowed feminist.
So what exactly is the relationship between these two? They're fricking weird.
berry serious
They seem like they hate each other or don't have the standards I have as cartoon buddies.
She already was a main writer on the shows it would be weird if she wasn't.
Oh shit
>Original series

how many damn iterations does this property really even need like frick?
Dude TMNT has a bunch, Scooby Doo has over 20. Fairly Odd Parents has what? 15 seasons? it's only CN which sucks dick at milking their IPs, it was only recently they went hard on Ben 10 in all the worst low-effort ways possible instead of just make Ben 10,000 the series instead of that gay Alien Force and Omniverse shit.
>it's only CN which sucks dick at milking their IPs
It's because milking your IPs is a bad fricking thing. I thought people didn't want more Simpsons and SpongeBob plaguing the industry
CN as a money-making and popularity-driven cartoon channel sucks monkey dick. It doesn't offer you neither quality nor quantity/popularity/nor money.
I'd choose Nick and Disney over CN even on sleep deprivation and alcoholic poisoning. Even Adultswim is better than Cartoonnetwork the cheapasses of the cheapasses, cheap bawds, cheap dumb fricking bawds without a brain cell, dumb fricking communists with their UPA designs and obsession with Ren and Stimpy. Stupid fricking bugmen who belong in China. That's what my subconscious says about them.
>I'd choose Nick and Disney over CN even on sleep deprivation and alcoholic poisoning.
We get it, you love to consooom
No moron I want either quality animation or my IP to be successful, I don't both an ugly low budgeted cartoon surrounded by idiots who can't draw and for my IP to die after 2 seasons.
>he says while dick sucking Nick and Disney of all people
Also this isn't the 2000s, they moved on from the UPA look a long time ago.
What the hell, this could be great
It's better than 2000s shit that never got rebooted
this discovery merger wont affect it right?
They got Craig to come back to CN and this was finalized after the merger so very much doubt it unless there's production issues.
This is actually far more likely to be greenlighted due to being post-merge.
>bump limit in less than 5 hours
Shit like this is why media companies will keep rebooting old shit instead of taking chances on new ideas. You're all part of the problem.
Good. More companies should take advantage of their IPs.
Did Craig and Lauren try to make another child or did they just stop??
wish we could say that to the gaming world
You're not wrong. whenever a new show gets brought up, it gets quickly drag under the radar to let the old shows continue on while they air for several years....even if it still ongoing with episodes coming out yearly.
Anon this was a big part of a lot of people's childhoods and now the creator is back on board. Shouldn’t you be happy?
I'm happy Craig's involved, but this reboot is still in no way necessary. And it pisses me off to see how easily decades-old cartoons can get trending, while new originals have to fight tooth & nail to even be acknowledged for a second. I better see even HALF this level of excitement once Unicorn premieres.
>while new originals have to fight tooth & nail to even be acknowledged for a second
that's because they are shit
and because investors, producers, executives, HR completely 120% refuse to look for real talent outside of gay colleges. So many quality webtoons out there with simplistic art styles that could be easily animated like Hooves of Death (with ALREADY A HUGE FOLLOWING) and the imbeciles completely ignore it and then they keep whining "waaahh why is anime doing so much better 🙁 " or no they don't admit that. They go "Wow we got +30k viewers 😀 that's better than last year" meanwhile Japanese comics and anime viewers and purchases are in the millions.
People didn't grow up with Unicorn anon. Plus it’s not Nick or Disney so the IP won't be successful.
PPG deserves to have a good reboot
So when is this shit coming out?
At least half of the thread is composed of b***hing about the reboots (and rightfully so.)
2024 at the earliest. probably 2025.
The frick happened to the live action reboot?
I was more hyped for the Foster's reboot until I read the preschool and new cast part. Frick you Craig.
>mr herriman’s actor is sick or dead (forgot)
>cheese probably won’t fly at all in 2023
>eduardo might but he’ll def be recast
>frankie probably won’t be in it because of the metric tons of porn she’s been in since 2004(
>Craig in charge
Mite b cool.
Can mai waifu get some love too, tho?
how many seasons does CN run for their shows depending on the budgets and ratings? I know disney has this three season policy (Star Vs had 4, but its final season bombed terribly resulting in shows to stick to the three season format.)
Kim Possible, Phineas & Ferb and Big City Greens also joined the 4 seasons club.
oh my bad it was entitled as whoopass girls. also what will ms. bellum do.
What are people looking forward to in a PPG reboot on a modern, toothless CN?
Personally nothing. CN won't even give them the proper budget and art style to work with.
I personally out of an improved modern PPG want the slice of life and action shows separated. I want the action show to be more like DBZ and Naruto in terms of fancy effects, because those tiny stubby legs the PPG have looks like hell when trying to do kung-fu.
I want one of those proper action shows with a season long story like Generator Rex and Ben 10. Comedy always destroys plot-based shows and abuses status quo. The only "finale" episode to me was the one where the professor's friend clones the girls and gets killed by his own creations. And that still sucked major ass compared to Dexter's finale.
no twerking is a good start
i thought dexter's VA died years ago?
She did but she also retired years before that so she has plenty of replacements before that
didn't they joke about the kindergarten teacher being single or something?
place your bets, folks.
what's getting rebooted next?
what the hell is with the quality drop during the late 10s?
>shows they'll probably reboot/revive within the next 5-10 years:
Dexter, Johnny, Courage, Galactic KND, Lazlo, Chowder, Flapjack, Regular Show
>shows that won't get rebooted:
everything else lol
Johnny Bravo, very likely.
I’d like to see Juniper Lee get revived. That’s if Judd Winick has an intreset in bringing it back though.
KND will get a new movie as for chowder im pretty sure it gonna be a sequel not a reboot of the whole series
I agree with everyone saying KND. With Foster's getting a revival, it looks like CN may be showing interesting in rebooting shows other than PPG, Ben 10, or Adventure Time. Between that and there being interest in GKND, I think there's a good chance we may end up getting it. Not saying it's guarantee, but I think there's a good chance.

Very late to this thread. Wonder how they'll do Frankie this time.
