Powerpuff Girls Live Action CW Series In Development

[JMTV]

I hope that’s what it means to tone down the campiness. I hope it doesn’t mean a dark, gritty PPG reboot.

Don't you mean ' tone down the edgyness that pandered to lowest common denominator'? If that's the case, I'm hoping so, but I kinda doubt it knowing the writers' track record, so far....

Okay, but can you be more specific?

Well, it's just that this saying has been overused in the past few years.

Why they chose Atlanta for filming the Powerpuff live-action pilot?! Well, at least, I hope the show itself will be filmed in Canada.
If not Canada, then I can wonder. Who and why they chose the Ocean Group for dubbing the certain Powerpuff Girls anime? Is that anime the only piece of Powerpuff media not owned by Cartoon Network at all?

Whoa, take it easy with that and I'd like to point out The CW has a lot of shows not shot in Canada and this show isn't the only exception.

More like tone down the crappy writing. Edgy and campy shows don't have to be as badly written as that was.

Bubbles' actor Dove Cameron has come out as bi.

 

[Fone Bone]

Do you know what REALLY frustrates me? And God knows it must frustrate gay celebrities who come out. But I'm thinking Cameron came out as a form of political solidarity for gay and bi kids struggling. What bothers me is that I think for most people (at least this is true of me) they like keeping their sexuality and sex life private. But bigotry against gay people is SO freaking rampant in this country, people like Dove don't have the luxury of keeping that to themselves. I take it for granted I can keep that stuff private.

For the record, I don't love that magazine cover. It's another reason I'm unhappy about stuff like this.

Relevance to the show? Likely zilch.
I do wonder if they maintain Buttercup as that kind of lesbian.

Oh okay. I understand.

Okay, fair enough.

Why not? Many shows are shooting in Atlanta in recent years, including some CW shows.

Has this even been greenlighted by Warner Bros outside of a pilot to become its own show?.

I don't believe so. I think that they're just developing the pilot and it hasn't been picked up as an actual series yet.

If that is/was the case, then I am pleased as a fan of the Powerpuff Girls franchise.

I wonder if they will be able to make the full pilot at all.

And man, it already has 18 pages.

Dove Cameron also comments on the pilot getting re-worked.

 

[JMTV]

Okay, what Dove Cameron saying is that the real reason why live action PPG pilot was being re-worked was NOT because of the leaked script, but because they want to get the tone of the show right?

Okay, I can understand that. Unless they do tried to capture the spirit of the original source material in a respectful way, I'm still going in with very low expectations since the original script was so cringe-worthy with such badly written dialogue that I'm surprised that anyone at The CW almost approved of this.

Hearing that Dove Cameron is still confident of the live action PPG pilot despite negative backlash from the leaked script and the leaked set photo

I begin to wonder what happens if CW will finally scrap the live action powerpuff series and pass it to HBO max instead to revise it but with a different writer and different casts and aim it towards an older or general audience but will pay homage to the original series set in a different continuity.

Because, well,The original powerpuff girls is always campy from the beginning.And if CW scraps the powerpuff live action project and pass it to HBO max ,imagine if it's announced by the casts of the powerpuff pilot like Dove Cameron who will sadly announce in social media that there will not be a CW powerpuff series then goes on saying the dream is over with sad face emoticon and stuff similar to Lucy Hale's tearful announcement on her show Katy Keene's cancellation

There will be mixed reaction with the hardcore PPG fans happy that the project is scrapped officially
while the fans of the stars of the live action powerpuff are sad that CW's take on the powerpuff girls will never happen.

If they don't think the script was the actual problem, then they don't actually understand what was wrong. Therefore, they'll be unable to fix it. This is still going to be a mess.

Yeah,I agree its like CW along with the casts and crew of powerpuff don't have a common sense and understand fans and if they want to attract the older audience they need test audience to gain approval and if the test audience like it then the hardcore PPG fans will give CW's take of the powerpuff girls a go .But anyway if CW has a common sense and if the second version of the powerpuff pilot failed then they will have no choice but to scrap it or pass it to hbo max to improve it probably with a different cast and crew

also, one doubt has the CW powerpuff pilot started re-filming yet ,If not when will they start re-filming and when will CW make a decision to approve it or not and if approved will it air in 2022 or 2023 and if discovery media and warnermedia form into a new merging company under discovery medias leadership instead of AT&T will they keep or scrap the CW powerpuff project

I agree. I mean, it's already a trainwreck from the get-go.

 

[thomas2313412]

And one more thing what will make CW change their minds and scrap the cw powerpuff series or just pass it to hbo max to make it better whether it will still be aimed for older audience or general audience but will pay homage to the original show

Or maybe the leaked script wasn't even used for the pilot at all and was possibly discarded before preproduction began.
