- And here it is, the FINAL Powerpuff Girls 2016 review. After nearly five long years of producing individual videos for every single gosh darn episode of this forsaken reboot, I've finally done it. Man, does this feel good.
That said, I hope you all enjoy the video. As I state within it, this will not be my final video on the show, rather just the end of my episode reviews. While I feel I've covered this series in nearly as much depth as possible, I still have a few other aspects that I want to talk about before closing off this series for good. Of course, you can expect my Top 5 of the season in the near future, so stay tuned for that. Thank you everyone for continuing to support me throughout all of this, it truly does mean a lot. Enjoy the review (or don't, I can't force you)!

You know this episode is something when the review is longer then the actual episode. This will be good
Well, all of the reviews are longer than episodes
@@svetakuklina8398 That is true but this is one of the longer reviews of the 11 minute episodes and being nearly 30 minutes long
@@danielmackowiak1606 Okay
@@svetakuklina8398 Most of the early Season 1 reviews were only 5 minutes long.
true, then again it is the final ep
My last words for this reboot
Bye bye I won’t miss you.... 👋
Mine is “bye bye I’ll miss you but I’ll see you on DVD”
Mine is "bye bye your piece of shit the only good things you had was silico and bliss!"
Lol😂😂😂😁😀
Should've been "FXCK YOU! Its not RAD!"
@@marquellrucker3295 one quick question why did cartoon network didn't made any more powerpuff girls episodes until further notice cartoon network took that show off and put jellystones on insted which powerpuff girls is way better then jellystones
I have mad respect for you, Shadow. You've managed to drudge through this awful reboot, in its entirety, for all of us.
But at least you can take solace in the fact that it's finally been put out of it's misery. Halle-freaking-lujah!
Also wishing Tom Kane (who reprises his role as the Professor for this show) a good recovery.
Agree. He and the other voice actors in this reboot deserve better than this. Seriously, screw you, reboot for messing with a great character, like The Professor.
To me thats what sad about this last episode it might be the last time we hear tom kane's voice as the professor and if there is ever another reboot they will recast him.
Me too. But, what's happened to him?
@@unripetheberrby6283 he had a stroke, he may had survived against it, but it cost him his voice
Shadow streak: now that i finished this TERRIBLE reboot, i think im gonna review other shows-
Ppg live action reboot (if it acutally airs): sup
Shadow streak: *jumps out da window then moves to pieguyrulz's house-*
Gonna be like going from TTG to the much, much, MUCH worse show 'Titans'
Classic PPG: Hey What About Me? I Can Get Your Mind Off Those 2 Imposters Who Took My Identity, I'm The Original OG Powerpuff Girls
@@RiderNexus what? Have you even watched Titans?
@@gracekim25 Yes, it sucks ass
@@RiderNexus doesn’t sound like you actually tried it. Like you’re blindly hating it because it’s live action
June 16, 2019, the date when Sideline Dad aired. After that, it ended on a sour note due to those abysmal ratings.
An episode about the professor aired on Father's Day.
@@BlythePennyBicycle21 yeah same thing happened last time since June 18, 2017 after the Gumball marathon called “The Amazing Father's Day Celebration!” aired.
Nah they had been abysmal during the previous season too.
didnt even go out with a bang
@@kalamariunicorn6071 I wish that powerpuff girls got renewed for a fourth season
"This is how the world ends.
Not with a Bang.
But with a whimper"
-I don't remember who but this quote could apply to the reeboot
It's a T.S. Elliot quote, I believe.
GameUniverse, that quote also reminds me of Gravity Falls.
@@zackgaiters5488 Yup, T. S. Elliot, "The Hollow Men"
Not with a bang but with sound of vomit more like.
Little known fact that the person behind this quote was referring to The Fairy Oddparents
Goodbye powerpuff girls reboot cartoon. We have our laughs, pissed off moments, REALLY pissed off moments, but now reach to the end of the era and the begining of a new era of shadowstreaks.
I said it once, I'll say it again: I'm surprised by how long this show lasted. From what I've heard, this show's ratings were usually mediocre, only really boosting with the whole Bliss dealio. I can't believe I'm saying this, but at least with TTGo, it was entertaining with how bad it could be. PPG2016 was just mediocre from start to finish.
Okay, when you're less entertaining than TTGo then you know you're knee-deep in radiation-level trouble.
Teen Titans GO entertaining? Yeah Right Teen Titans GO is still BullShit from start to finish and I'd still wish the show would just Die already
@@moxxiedemongamer3019 ttg is sooo more entertaining and more funny then ppg
@@moxxiedemongamer3019 I mean, TTG was stupid and memorable enough to have almost every cartoon reviewer under the sun talk about it for years. PPG 2016 was only talked about when it first came out and when Bliss became a thing. Otherwise, radio silence. Hell, the only reason why most people, including myself, remember it being a thing is because of Shadow Streak being a chad and reviewing every episode of the show for years straight.
And meanwhile, there's Ben 10, which has had grad season finales, including Ben fighting Vilgax for the first time, and holding off an alien invasion, battling against a Forever Knight, going into space and meeting Azmuth, while learning more about the Omnitrix, as well as Vilgax and Azmuths relationship, and recently had a special where we met Ben 10000. I may be a bit biased toward Ben, but Ben 10 has both PPG and TTG beat.
Damn a part of me is actually going to miss these. The reviews not the reboot obviously.
Hard to believe this show actually got _worse_ the longer it went on...
Good bye, PPG2016. You will not be missed.
Not true. This final episode is horrible but, this season had the most number of good/decent episodes.
@@Esgles To most people, what happens in the middle doesn't matter much. This episode is the last one, it's what the season (and the show) will be remembered by, and based on what I remember watching in the beginning, this is worse than what they had at the start of season one.
Can't even keep the names of their characters straight, smh.
@@Sollace true
If only we could say that to all the terrible reboots
The "Idiot Father" trope is a tragic illness that targets Men with Kids, rotting their character, all for the sake of comedy. If you found out that you've contracted the symptoms (or think this is actually funny)
Please seek some help. Fatherhood depends on it.
We thankfully seem to be drifting away from that trope with characters like Greg Universe from Steven Universe, George Bramley from It's Pony, and Lynn Loud Sr. The Loud House. They all have their goofy moments for sure, but overall they're actually competent as parents and show common sense. Even Sanjay and Craig averted this by making Vijay and Penny more down to earth in comparison to the rest of the cast.
The End of an Error.
best comment thread thanks to this one quote right here 👆🏼👆🏼👆🏼
The worst thing about this episode for me is the fact that it's most likely the final time we hear Tom Kane as Professor Utonium since he recently had a stroke that made him unable to speak. I'm hoping he recovers from this. Even if he does get his voice back and doesn't retire, I don't think we'll see anything animated of the PPGs for a good long time, and he probably will be retired by the time anything new is done with the franchise again other than the live action CW series. Knowing this could be the sendoff of Tom Kane as the Professor makes me sad and wish even more that we had a better reboot.
Sadly, it has been stated that he’s retired. That was so soul-crushing.
Ah, well, we're in luck, Craig is in talk with CN to make another animated reboot. With him in charge it should be 120% better than this garbage.
Yeah it’s depressing that this was the last time he voiced the character 😢
@@ragingraichu219but unfortunately someone else will have to play the professor 😢
@@gracekim25 I know, it sucks.
How fitting that this terrible reboot ended with a terrible episode
Yeah besides they should have ended with a movie crossover as a series finale.
@@keatonwestbrook2385 CN doesn't let you do that. Gumball had to fight to end on a movie.
@@icecreamhero2375 Indeed.
@@icecreamhero2375 well maybe we can do a petition.
@@icecreamhero2375 well I was going to say if we could you know do a petition.
What i hate about the professor in this series is it enforces shitty stereotypes about dads... because we can't have strong female characters with a good dad, they have be strong through no help of a male authority figure at all
We have Kim Possible, We have Despicable Me, and We have Bob's Burgers.
This reboot has a lot of unfortunate implications
Robin being chased by a lion is a perfect metaphor for how the reboot handles elements brought over from its original source material
And Robin being called "Candice" a moment later is also fitting.
We did it!!!! We’ve reached the summit!!! And looks like we’re going out with a bang!! Nice job on sticking it through to the end Shadow!! 💙💖👏🏻🏅
Time to celebrate it by killing the ppg2016 franchise xd
My last words for the reboot are
Bye bye I won’t miss you 👋
The series ended on June 16, 2019 so its confirmed to have ended
They have not given the official confirmation tho. They use PPG as their marketing prop. Sad :(
And the fact that nothing was said about it while the OG series went out on a celebration-
WOW.
You'd think they'd end the show with some big monster fight or something, but instead, they decided to end it with just a generic soccer episode. This wouldn't have been as bad if it was just another episode, but having it just end like this show's how little they cared for this show, but I guess it's fitting that the show end's on such a lame note considering how that's how it started as.
Every episode reviewed. The evil has now been conquered, at least until whenever that dumb CW show releases....
Been subbed since the Puffdora's box review and this has definitely been a very fun, engaging and interesting ride, even without seeing the episodes past the first quarter of season 2 haha. Excited to see the remaining reboot vids.
Um mate, you’re judging before it’s even aired😅 at least WAIT before disliking it
The concept of the CW makes it seem like it's dead on arrival tbh
It's over!
Kind of a shame that it ended on a wet fart style episode, but honestly isn't it fitting?
EDIT: I wonder if there's potential for something like a top 10 best/worst overall video after the top/bottom 5 of season 3 is finished?
Exactly
@@yes8032 yeah it was fun while it lasted. But who knows maybe some more DVD releases might happen in the future.
He said in stream that he won’t do an overall episode list from all seasons because he thought it was unnecessary the season ones are good enough.
@@alijasemjafer3635 I’m just trying to help.
@@keatonwestbrook2385 i was talking about shadow streak not you.
Wow! No wonder they decided not to finish with a bang, I've never seen a more unsatisfactory climactic finale in my life! But I suppose it's a fitting end to this unsatisfactory reboot! Time to watch the remaining fans disappear!
(moments later)
FINALLY! This garbage show got what it deserved! The Powerpuff Girls 2016 has been cancelled!
Finally, the end of this atrocious trainwreck comes to an end. All I can say is, it started out at the bottom.. AND IT SOMEHOW MANAGED TO DIG ITSELF DEEPER.
Season 3, is the epitimy of the people behind the show NOT GIVING A SHIT.. Every episode I've seen so far just tells me the crew of this show just DIDN'T CARE ANYMORE. They didn't care about the criticism they were given and buckled down HARDER and in fact made MORE mistakes, they didn't care about how boring or stupid they made the episodes, they didn't care about consistency or character, they didn't care if what they were airing made any lick of sense.
THEY JUST. DIDN'T. CARE. And I'm glad this show is gone.
Tom Servo: They just didn't care!
I can’t wait to see what this channel has in store in the future
The final nail in the coffin to this horrid reboot , honestly can't believe we've made it this far , it was sure one heck of a ride .
The ride's not over yet. Maybe someday he'll review the original series.
Yup
@@vestonbruno2795 I meant the reboot was that ride
@@BugsyFoga I know, but I want a much better ride. Like maybe some of the original PPG shows and maybe KND.
Robin; a character who had one of the original show's most heartwarming episodes centered around her, gets tormented via chased by a iion for a cheap punchline. Meanwhile the girls, despite being superheroes and her friend, don't do anything to save her....
Do you see why turning PPGs into an edgy comedy doesn't work?
If there's one thing we've learned from the reboot is that the people who worked on it (notably Nick Jennings and Bob Boyle) may have gotten the formula right, but the one thing they forgot was love.
If you want something PPG related to put a better taste in your mouth, maybe you could review the Powerpuff Girls Z anime.
Good idea.
I second this.
or he can review the original show and its movie from the 2000s
i really liked the anime. he should totally do this. one thing that annoys me is that the reboot got more seasons than ppgz. it was 1000x better than what we’ve got now
How many times do we have to teach you this lesson, old man?!
Professor utonium: I love the young people
Dexter is also a very smart character who does not know simple stuff, but it makes more sense with Dexter than the Professor, as he is a kid he is most of the time at his lab, so it makes somewhat sense of what stuff he does not know
Also, Dexter can have a bit of an ego from time to time and be a little bit of a jerk.
I don't even watch the PPG reboot. But I found your reviews when it first came out amd I've just been addicted. It feels like I've watched all the episodes despite never watching a single one.
It's fitting how this reboot ended on a whimper. The *entire* show is a whimper when compared to the original show! 😆
so this is how the show ends
NOT with a Bang
But with a Whimper at least the 2016 PPG ReBoot is Dead hopefully Teen Titans GO gets cancelled next
Original Professor: The Best Character
Reboot Professor: The Worst Character
Reboot Utonium is honestly the polar opposite of original Professor Utonium. He used to be such a good dad why did they turn him into this sad pile of attempt at moron father who doesn't care about his children?
I’m trying to figure out how the reboot got the point where they had to tell Tom Kane to mispronounce a one syllable word.
Its kinda sad that this is the last episode you need to review :( also cant wait for the "Next we get a montage" compilation video
I can't believe it's over. It feels like an end of some adventure. Initially a very annoying and stupid adventure (the sourse material) that was made into something entertaining thanks to these reviews. Can't wait to see what's next for the channel!
Damn, I commend you for going this far. Hopefully the series will get a real reboot with decent writing....
Someday.
Surprisingly, your comment aged well.
You know, this episode is also pretty historically significant, as this is the official last time Tom Kane will ever get to reprise the role, especially following the stroke he had not too long ago.
Yep, which is kinda sad that one of the more (if not the most) iconic roles of his has this as his last reprisal
Oh dear😨
Honestly this alone makes me livid at this show. They fuck up his character so thoroughly that he’s unrecognizable, and now he’ll probably never get another chance to reprise it to fix the damage. What bullshit
@@AnimatedIdiotGuide This 100%.
It's finally over.
I'm sad now
Finnaly xd
Finally no reboot
@@roykoopa58 so am I it’s not their fault that the reboot ended with Sideline Dad after the crew moved on to do other projects. Besides I wish they could just you know do a crossover movie as a series finale that’ll be so cool.
Whew that’s a relief
Yes! We are finally finished with this terrible reboot!! Thank you so much Shadow for takin the time to review all these episodes. It was a fun ride. I can't wait to see what videos you do in the future!
Shadow streak: I am done with bad PPG
CW: hold my blossom
Your completion of these reviews marks a feat of unmatched human achievement. The level of commitment and dedication you've had for analyzing this lackluster reboot is incredible. Great work Shadow and excited to see what you do next!
Thanks Monsters! Your words mean a lot :D
Next we get the final montage. What a series.
Is it just me or does this reboot seem to hate Robin?
I can't believe this lasted three seasons. Absolute suffering. But I'm glad this ended, but I really wish this ended WAAAY sooner!
*Plays both Juno Sings/Man on the Internet's both covers of "In The Final" from Bowser's Inside Story Duet Style*
Well well well, so were finally here at long last and how fitting that The Professor himself has been your Final Boss since Day 1. Not Donny, not Jared, not Princess, and even Silico as your N.Trophy to your Crash Bandicoot but now we tackle this reboot down to rest once...and....FOR ALL!!!!
And thus this god awful reboot Is long dead and thank god for that! (For now anyway once the live action comes out then you'll have to come back to this again!) Hopefully now none of Craig McCracken's other shows won't get touched by some other amateur studio by these exact people anytime soon.
Welp! I'm headin' on down to The Cock & Plucker cause today marks Conker's 20th Anniversary and I don't wanna miss It! I'll save ya a seat and a glass to celebrate In your honour If ya like? :D
That thumbnail reminded me of Part 6 Jotaro...
Stand User: Prof. Kujo
Stand Name: Star Powerpuff
5:34 you know having the reboot be self aware and acknowledge that the professor is a terrible parent just makes it even worse I mean it's like they're purposely making him the most hateable character in the show.
This episode was so BAD that all the staff of animators and voice actors quitted and they decided to not continue with this garbage lol
Really?
@@normanpopcultureboy8563 Nah just sayin
@@luijo633 okay
It wouldn't be a shadow streak review if we didn't get a physics lesson
Isn't Robin that girl from the original show who started shoplifting because Princess Morbucks told her to? I didn't know she was even in the reboot
Yep that's her and they gave her a terrible voice for some reason.
I’m so shocked for the fact that the PPG saw Robin (the Girls best friend) been chased by a Lion and been blasted by a robot, and they don’t even give a shit
You'd think the Prof. would be used for smart bonus jokes, literally perfect guy to make jokes that rely on ya knowin' stuff.
Damn, the last episode of wandavision i can handle, BUT THE LAST EPISODE OF THIS SERIES ASWELL?!
The Final Episode of Shadow Streak PPG Reviews also just wanna say am sad the reviews are over they were really good better than the show welp at least we'll get top 10 season 3 episodes and other aspects of the show
25:20 don't forget random stock photos
There’s some at 8:01
@@RiqMoney817 damn good eye i didn't even see that!But at least it isnt as obnoxious as other times were itll be on the screen just to kill time
The finale is finally here, whatever you review in the future Shadow Streak, I will be there to watch it.
It makes sense the worst reboot *EVER* would have its final episode feature the worst character Professor Utonium. He makes grandpa max in the ben 10 reboot more likable.
This made me legitimately angry when I caught it on television thank you for picking it apart!
Total Eclipse of the Kart should've been the final episode.
Well that was the og plan
it's honestly like they just don't even care anymore by the end of the final episode and it shows
This is the FINAL episode?

*Hears about the first episode for the CW reboot being ordered*
SON OF A BI-
*Cut to black*
I've been watching the original powerpuff girls lately, and you shit talking professor almost pissed me off until I remembered which show this is
9:01 - 9:12 Jesus Christ, I thought you were looping the footage for a joke! Don't tell me they stooped down to Family Guy levels with the whole Overly Long Gag thing.
120 episode reviews? The reboot had that many episodes? They should have quit before or at 50.
By the way, This episode also marks the last time Professor Utonium is voice by Tom Kane due to the actor suffering a stroke.
I’m no genius not by a long shot not even in the liberal sense of the word unless you count video game anime and manga which I still don’t completely understand. But I feel like my intelligence is being insulted by the Professsor... No Utonium’s idiocy
Yay it's over this bad reboot is dead. Nobody even liked it to begin with.
May you live on doing reviews of the Cw Powerpuff show or however you wish to live your life, now that a burden is off your shoulders
I am still stunned at how long this reboot survived.
The mispronouncing of the word "wave" by The Professor physically hurt me.
I know right they repeated the same joke too much.
Imagine a PPG show where the Puffs aren't even the protagonists. Focus shifting to some other character group.
I hate the professor even more just for mistreating Robin
The series ended with a whimper and not with a bang, no real finale or nothin'. But why am I not surprised?
It's the final countdown!
Ohhhh; nice!
Turururu, tururururu, turururu ¡the final countdown!
I just finished rewatching the entire OG PPG cartoon that I grew up with, and now I’m in the process of watching the reboot on Hulu to make fun of its many flaws, and to see if there’s anything good about it. OMG! What they’ve done to Professor Utonium in the reboot is painful...
Yeah, he had some OOC moments in the OG cartoon in some bad episodes, but for the most part, he was a very attentive, brave, kind, caring, intelligent, protective, and selfless dad to the girls. Also, if he did mess up as a parent in the OG cartoon at times in certain episodes, he would usually get called out on it, realize he was wrong, and snap out of it. In the reboot, he’s just a reckless, stupid, and selfish manchild with little to no common sense, who never learns.
The "dumb dad" trope should really be dead by now but for some reason they keep this tired schtick alive. You know it's funny to think that the father being a buffoon was actually meant to be a _subversion_ at one point in time. Characters like Homer and Peter Griffin were the exception, not the rule. Now it's more surprising to find a good dad in a cartoon or a movie who doesn't end up dying later just as a giant fuck you to the audience.
@@rhondahoward8025 Yeah, it worked as a trope with Homer Simpson and Peter Griffin pre-flanderdization on their shows, but now they just keep overusing the bumbling dad trope because of those two characters.
Great review.
15:21 Well you see the reboot rarely has jokes with actual setups and punchlines. It has way too much non sequitur humor. Jokes that make no sense at all but are funny anyway. My favorite example of non sequitur humor. *Spongebob:* Patrick are you ok *Patrick:* FINLAND!!!!!!!!! In my opinion, they work best when done occasionally. When you overuse non sequitur humor it's lazy low effort humor because anyone can be random and weird. I'll use it right now. *A cat wearing a sombrero on the moon.* I think that after Adventure Time came out some other shows decided weird automatically= funny. The evil clone is the reboot doing a bad attempt at non sequitur humor.
To me the evil clone never made sense as joke it reminded me of the family guy joke with Peter and his evil clone. In fact why wasnt the evil clone a episode it definitely could have lended to some episodes and a recurring bad guy plus a evil clone is such a no brainer comic wise.
I agree after adventure time you see alot of cartoons trying to ape that type of humor this show definitely showing how lazy they were with it and expecting to cost on it.
the reboot ending on a continuity trainwreck like this seems about right
You can rest now, Shadow Streak
finally. the ppg 2016 reboot is finally done and over with. but we’ve still got the live action reboot still in the making 🤢
I dont know why but the thumbnail reminds me of mermaid man and barnacle boy
Idk what’s more boring and tiring, watching the ball go back and forward, or Shadow explaining about Waves
I would say watching the ball go back and forward
That coach must be really immature and not used to any parents arguing with her at all - a regular part of the job description of an elementary sports coach. Maybe _she_ was the parent of one of the other kids and threw a tantrum at the previous coach not long before?
Whatever the case, the Professor is clearly bold and brash.
That would have been a better running gag.
IT’S OVER! (Hallelujah music plays) Thank you very much! I enjoyed your vids! Now you can be at peace🙏🏻😌
It seems like Reboot Professor Utonium SUCKS!!!
tell me something i dont know b o i xd
Jared is worse

I stopped the bomb from exploding by making the bomb explode.
Damm we did it boys, we made it to the series finale! Awesome job Shadow Streak! 👏💗💙💚
With that, the journey of reviewing every single PPG 2016 episode has come to an end. Well done, Shadow! I genuinely applauded when the review was over! 👏👏👏👏👏
"Hawk Eye...?" The Professor Utonium, trying to name One Avenger.
And this is what I meant by the series finale being a massive disappointment. No big event, nothing major. Just this. What a way to go.
I'm kinda sad it ended. As bad as this show is, but you could actually learn a lot from this show in how to write a story, especially how to not write one.
I know right. This really is a writing class on how not to make a cartoon. 1) make sure every detail makes sense and adds up. If there is a plot hole try to correct it 2) Don't overuse non sequitur humor. Non sequitur humor works best in small doses. Try to tell jokes with set-ups and pay-offs. 3) Don't force cheesy life lessons into every episode. 4) Give villains good motivation and depth. This show often treats villains as obstacles to overcome rather than characters with wants and needs. Before making a character do something ask what do they get out of it. 5) Don't throw in a monster at the third act of every single plot.
Whoo! Its finally over. Still love your reviews and I'm glad there is more to come even if this travesty is done.
Damn we really all here early huh?💀💀💀
You know cartoons nowadays. Can’t make one gender look good without bringing the other down.
Seriously though, 🤦♂️ wth?
The one dislike is the Professor
Can u review the ogrinal power puff girls from 1998
I hope
