THE POWER PUFF GIRLS STILL SAVE THE DAY!

You know what I love?

Walking into a room and finding my kids watching a REAL cartoon.
Like...

The

Powerpuff

Girls!



The wolf cubs recently found it in the
On Demand section of the cable guide
and can't get enough of the show.

P is even drawing pictures of them.




So imagine the look on the boys' faces when I showed them this:


BOOM!

I mean, PPG was one of the reasons
I wanted a show on Cartoon Network.
(the other being Dexter's Laboratory)
So when I came to LA to make my Kenny and the Chimp pilot,
I went out of my way to meet show creator Craig McCracken.
I even got to go out for root beers with him!
(That's what the TIki Ti reference is about.)
(But as I remember things, it was mostly me with all the animation geek talk.)

Either way, it's been great getting to chat with Craig
here and there over the years.
And these days I get to see him 'round the halls of Disney.
(where he may or may not be working on a sooper secret (awesome) project)

If you haven't watched PPG in a while,
Check it out.
It still ROCKS!

PPG and Dexter's lab are always the first cartoons that comes through mind when someone talks about classical cartoons. They marked so much my childhood... well, they and a bunch of other cartoons that normally were from Cartoon Network like Ed, Edd n Eddy, Courage The Cowardly Dog, Cow and Chicken, Johnny Bravo and of course KND =]
