      At least one will be. She'll display this by being constantly hit on by gross dudes who she will violently and casually dismiss. Then her partner will show up and they kiss so the audience can either be 'yas kween' or 'oh she's a lesbian, hot and also that's why she turned down constant sexual harrasment'.

        Will they go the obvious route and make it Buttercup, or will they sUbVeRt ExPeCtAtIoNs by making it one of the others?

          My money's on Buttercup being implied to be les by not having a love interest while the other two will, but it will never be explicitly established that she is.

          Of course, if they wanted to be TV legends, they would make Buttercup a trans man.

    Craig McCracken absolutely did the right thing quitting the show and forcing its cancellation after 5 seasons and a film, and Cartoon Network were right to leave it the fuck alone afterward (until they didn't, more than a decade later) in favor of Foster's. Otherwise we would've ended up with another stagnant zombie show like what SpongeBob inevitably became, and every one of its contemporaries and successors would have suffered for it.

    It took a misunderstanding that turned into a bomb scare (because Boston cops are skittish) to so thoroughly transform the network into the one that rebooted the Powerpuffs and allowed a Teen Titans knockoff to monopolize the channel's live feed.

    Is that one artist or whoever going to draw himself into a relationship with the older ones? Or just the kid versions?

    This might actually be cool. Like they have PTSD from beating the shit out of a bunch of petty criminals.

    CW is scrambling for the next cash cow after Supernatural. They're also remaking Walker Texas Ranger with Jared Padalecki
