    Hey guys, I didn't mention it in the video (it was recorded before I started working on this), but I also have a Powerpuff podcast now!
    Check it here on Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/6n2SuChyvkuZLvgG4oiUlI
    If you guys are interested in even more in-depth discussions regarding PPGs, feel free to check it out! It's hosted by me and a good friend of mine RJ App, whom some of you may know as one of the people behind several Powerpuff Girls accounts on Twitter like No Context PPG and Art of Powerpuff. Together the two of us are going to be going through every episode of the entire show and even more beyond that, so if this video wasn't enough for you and you're craving more long-term PPG discussions, please give it a listen!
    Let us know what you think! We'll be releasing new episodes every other Wednesday for the forseeable future!

      Awesome 😊 I’ve been watching the show on Netflix recently so the timing of this video was perfect cuz there’s so much i don’t think I saw of this show because of my age at the time it was on air (I’m essentially catching up so to speak). I have a slight obsession with podcasts now too😂

    The irony that Mojo is responsible for the girls creation both because of him trying to mess with time in a later episode, and in being such a bad lab assistant, he got the professor to break a thing of Chemical X. Now that's some good stuff there.

    I also see Buttercup's silence in Buttercrush as a way of conveying her unwillingness to express her emotions. Since she's the hardened tough girl, she probably doesn't want to admit to having feelings for someone else, and so she deals with it by keeping silent.

    4:30:48- Closest I can think of is Wander Over Yonder (another show produced by Craig), which had an episode that was all about how Wander and Lord Hater went about getting ready for their days, titled “The Breakfast”. Had a unique split-screen view too.

    2:32:11 I think part of the reason why YuGiOh got censored that way was because 4kids operated on network channels like Fox, while Cartoon Network was a cable channel. Network channels had stricter rules for kids shows back then. This got to the point that Saturday morning cartoons on network channels were just preschool shows, Disney channel sitcoms and 4kids

      @maskofthedragon He's not the only one-time villain either. I know these were in the first season, but Mr Mime and the hypnotic cat are also there. I think Abracadaver or someone else from a one-time episode is there too. The Rowdyruff Boys are also visible, but they did get five episodes after all, and two were full-length, while they got their own ending in the fifth since the girls weren't in that episode at all.

      Abracadaver and the Boogey Man (who I’m assuming is the one off you’re thinking of) weren’t added until the The Powerpuff Girls Rule! special. However, everyone else mentioned is in the intro from the beginning. This may be due to the practice of ordering one season and cutting it into two. I know that’s more recognized in today’s age, but I see no reason why this couldn’t be practiced back in the 90’s

    5:02:14 Nursery rhyme
    You hit the nail on the head. The Powerpuff Girls & Rowdyruff Boys were based on the nursery rhyme: girls are made of sugar, spice & everything nice whereas boys are made of snips, snails & puppy dog tails. The Powerpuff Girls intro showed the girls being created with sugar, spice & everything nice with the extra ingredient Chemical X. That intro foreshadowed that eventually in the future, there would be 3 superpowered boys created with snips, snails & puppy dog tails with Chemical X. The Rowdyruff Boys were BOUND to happen.

    9:09 technically we DID get a view of a newscaster voiced by Tom Kenny emulating the narrator in Fosters Home for Imaginary Friends. In the season 4 premiere, Challenge of the Super Friends, it opens with said newscaster saying something along the lines of “The City…IS IN PERIL! And I’m Terrified!” It’s the closest I believe we’ve had to a physical representation of the narrator.

    I can definitely understand Bubbles being the favorite PPG amongst the general consensus. She does get some of the best character episodes and she is adorable. My personal favorite was always Blossom. She's a great character who is kind of underrated by how few character episodes she gets compared to her sisters.

    I really admire how in this show a lot of episodes start off from the villains perspective and the PPG are only seen when the villains start causing trouble.
    It helps makes the world feel so much bigger. It's quiet the challenge being able to keep an auidence entertained even when the protagonist(s) aren't around.

    4:44:38 As a musician, I don't think it has anything to do with the instrumentation. While I agree that instrumentation is an important factor in music composition, what makes THAT track "creepy" (or eerie) is that high pitched/"scratched" sound that appears on the left speaker while it slowly descends to a much lower note, it's known as a "glissando". Of course, the dissonant chords also play a role.

As you can clearly see he wants to prove himself to his brother as he goes to steal some candy, but yeah I think their personalities are absent here though and I don't see many differences between Butch and Brick besides Brick being the leader

    I love the observations you've made about the sound design, because that really is a big part of what makes film, television, games, any media with an audio element, so enjoyable.
    The music, the sound effects, and even the actors' line delivery. Those are like the three pillars of sound design right there. Every part of the audio is distinct and memorable in its own way, just as much as the art direction and animation style.
    And I'd like to add that it makes sense they pay homage to Star Wars here and there, because those movies also have those three sound pillars. Epic score full of catchy melodies? Check. Hard-hitting sound effects that you instantly associate with the blasters and lightsabers? Check. Cheesy, but oh so quotable dialogue in just about every conversation? Super check.

    4:08:00 Finally a great and mostly exhaustive review on Impeach Fuzz! This episode is so unfairly treated, cause many people simply don't realize, that as You pointed out: this is a comedy driven episode, which has a timeless message: What happens, if the power gets into the hands of the wrong person? And don't forget, that this episode(and the whole PPG) was made in a time when the world had sense of humour! Unlike today. What especially touched me, that You had really good points about the relationship between the Mayor and Ms. Bellum, citing, that He truly listens to Her. And, how I'm glad, that unlike many others, You discussed the Fuzzy and Ms. Bellum scene as well: Yes, Fuzzy is a VILLAIN and he doesn't treat Her with respect. So the the message of the series was not: "See, guys, this is how You have to treat an attractive Woman" NO! The whole thing is about Fuzzy's tyrannic, and selfish nature, which is revealed in this episode. But of course, with COMEDY. That's why it's good. How I wish, Your review to get many people to their senses.

    Out of all the classic episodes, The Rowdyruff Boys was my favorite largely from how it offered a new challenge for the girls. The girls were always stronger than their foes and were only put on the rope because said villains either tricked them or had dumb luck on their side. Here, the Rowdyruff boys basically asks the question of what would happen if the girls were put against someone who was already on their own levels in terms of superpowers and the results were not pretty. It's here that the girls struggle to defeat the boys because they have never fought anyone on their own level, let alone three, especially ones more willing to fight dirty. This was one of the few times where the girls genuinely struggled until Mrs Bellum told them the boys weaknesses. It was such a creative episode

    I unfortunately wasn't around during the golden age of The Powerpuff Girls, but I remember getting into the original series from one of your videos and ever since I properly checked it out, it's become my favorite show of all time, and I agree that it doesn't always get the recognition it truly deserves. You not only put our appreciation for this masterpiece into a proper retrospective, but also went above and beyond. You helped me fully realize how great this show truly is and it's all fueled me with overwhelming inspiration as someone who admires and practices animation. I've been thinking about the possibility of this video for a long time and to sit down for 5 hours and watch the whole thing was truly an almost mystically wonderful experience. I agree with basically everything that was said. I don't even need to explain what I love about this show because every possible thing about it was stated in the video. I hold a great amount of respect for this series and your coverage on it's first season. It's so surreal to hear all your unabridged opinions after all these years. Great job with this review! That decade of conception and hard working production really paid off!

    A five hour breakdown of the first season of PPG is fucking insane dude. I'll def get back to this once I finish my rewatch.
    I think I'm around the same age as you, your story about getting into the Powerpuff Girls resonates with me as I became a fan around the same time (although my memories of when I first watched the show exactly don't exist sadly). PPG is such an important piece of media to me, one of the first (besides Mario) that really got me interest in being creative and I can credit it to probably being the main reason I got into character design. I'm always glad to see others so passionate about PPG and you're definitely one of the most passionate and through people out there.

    Great video man, and nice new avatar!
    Here's my favorite episodes this season:
    Boogie Frights: I loved the disco vibe of the Boogie Man and his crew, the Professor displaying his fatherly advice to the girls and Bubbles overcoming her fears. Also this was the first episode I saw, since I used to watch it often on a "Scooby-Doo" VHS tape.
    Abracadaver: Just the idea of a zombie magician is awesome and I love how they tied everything together with the use of magic tricks.
    Bubblevicious: Bubbles goes HARDCORE! That's all that needs to be said.
    Just Another Manic Mojo: It's always amusing when villains have low-key days, and this is no exception. Having the girls act like local kid neighbors made this one even more entertaining. That, and one of my favorite lines in the show ("I have forgotten my wallet! Curses.").
    Uh Oh Dynamo: Both the fights and the titular robot were awesome, and I liked how they showed more of the Professor's worrying dad side. Learning about the anime that inspired the mecha made me appreciate it even more.

    As somebody who enjoys shipping and stuff like that.
    Why didn’t the reboot had Ms. Bellum basically be a step mom to the girls instead of removing her. And have her date and then married to the professor.
    As you can have a three in one combo
    - Fighting/comedy
    - Found family
    - And romance

    Also for Octi Evil, purple is made of blue and red. With Him's colour scheme being red, Bubbles' is blue, so they get put together.
    For Paste Makes Waste, what Elmer does when he becomes a paste monster is in line with things like Stephen King's novella Carrie. This shy, colourless girl is bullied mercilessly and then starts to develop her power. When she's pushed too far, she does what Elmer does - attacks everyone without discriminating. Except instead of apologizing, Chris tries to run her over.

    37:21 PIE FLAVOR
    2:26:56 The Narrator's confused reaction to the villains themselves saving the day was honestly quite funny.
    "So, once again, the day is saved.. thanks to.. Mojo?.. Fuzzy?.. and HIM?"
    5:11:50 That part with their reactions and all of them crying (shown at 5:12:58), was one of the times the show made me feel genuinely disturbed. It doesn't make matters better due to the fact that the voice acting in that scene makes it sound like the actors themselves really are crying, in a disturbingly realistic manner, as far as I remember, given that I was pretty overwhelmed by it. It also made me not want to watch the episode for a long time. It's a good thing their tears can bring them back to life.

    I finally finished the video, and given the length, I can see why it's your favorite series. I didn't have cable for most of my childhood, so I didn't watch PPG that much, but my VHS of Scooby-Doo's Greatest Mysteries included Boogie Frights at the end. My favorite episodes of this season are probably Mime for a Change, The Bare Facts, and Boogie Frights. Also, I now have to picture what you look like with long hair lol. Great video!

    1:42:50 I also LOVE Buttercup. Love her toughness, her voice and tomboy-ishness (although I'd say I've got a bit from all 3 girls).
    Talking about this episode, I also LOVE the gangreen gang, but unlike you, I thought Craig's main inspiration was Matt Damon's solo project/band Gorillaz. Also, Ace looks so similar to former Alice in Chains' singer Layne Staley, who was rumored to having had gangrene in the 2000 Live Concert DvD (using sunglasses so that he could, supposedly, hide it), a year before his sudden passing due to drug overdose.

  • @KatelynJewel
    @KatelynJewel ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I noticed when you were talking about the Howie Scream in Paste Makes Waste, you seemed you be referring to the wrong scream since while it is used in that same scene, the clip you showed was the "Eyaghh! Eyaghhhh!" scream afterwards which I have heard in several shows as well, mainly in various PPG episodes but occasionally other stuff like Dexter's Lab and My Life as a Teenage Robot. The Howie Scream is probably mostly remembered by animation fans for being the last scream used in the intro to "Aaahh!! Real Monsters."

    Excellent video! I don’t think the bumper you were talking about with Fuzzy on his chair exists but there *was* a collection of bumpers that were just a simple scene on loop for about 15 seconds with the CN logo and “Screwy, Ain’t It?” under it, fading in near the end. I think they stopped doing these before PPG premiered.

    (From 2:58:16 to 2:58:45) Well, yeah, Mojo did kind of created the Powerpuff Girls, but the Professor did most of the work creating them, so I say Professor Utonium should have all the credits. All Mojo did was made him smash the container of Chemical X.

    34:45 While that is true, I'd like to think that during the comic book saga of the original PPG series, those writers had at least several more concepts that has Sedusa as the main focused villainess. Can't think of any specifics at the moment, but maybe you'll check those out someday.

    My biggest problem with PPG x RRB is that they are literally on the opposite sides of the fight. PPG are good, RRB evil. Which leads me to another point, which is the girls' personalities. The only one of these that could possibly work in an alternate universe would be Bubbles and Boomer, because Bubbles is the only PPG that could be open to the idea of romance. But even then, Boomer would have to have a redemption arc, which is VERY unlikely.
    Also, I hope you don't mind me saying, I don't consider Mojo the PPG's dad that much. I mean, he bumped into the Professor when he was mixing the ingredients, and would later be revealed to be the one to accidentally give Utonium the idea to make the girls, making Mojo doubly responsible for how the girls came to be. But still, I believe Prof. Utonium should be the one to receive full "dad" credit, since he was the one to gather and mix the ingredients.

      Also, I think Buttercup and Butch can work, eventually. It's clear that from Buttercrush, she does have a type. Blossom and Brick is something that clearly would take more time compared to the other two. Also, a redemption arc isn't that unlikely I feel like it should start with Boomer getting fed up with being hated by everyone, emphasizing this by having people throw stuff at them. Being bad boys just keeps getting them beaten up and booed. There's a lot one can do with that concept from there.

    2:44:03 I.. Don't see it that way, the "proverb" doesn't even make within the context of the episode considering that Major, the "new" guy, is an imitation of really old school super hero tropes, so nothing really new. To me, the allegory here would more fittingly be "not everything that glitters is gold".

    Now this is a passion project!
    Just got done listening to this, and I offer my congratulations and support for the next 5 of these.
    The Powerpuff Girls wasn’t a show I was there for during its run, but it still reran often when I was in primary school. (2001 baby btw) Season 1 was still popular in my day. I still remember watching Bubblevicious and Boogie Frights for the first time, and being amazed by the creativity and daringness they exuded.
    Those are just a few of my Powerpuff memories, but your’s were fun to hear, and added significantly to this feeling like a celebration of the show, as much as an episode-by-episode analysis.
    As for my opinions on Season 1, some of my favourite episodes include Octi Evil, Bubblevicious, The Bare Facts and Mime for a Change, and my least favourites are Ghesundfight and Paste Makes Waste.
    This is gonna be amazing.
