Netflix Just Got a Classic Cartoon and Some Specials in the Form of the Original powerpuff girls series, who rejoins Netflix after leaving seven years ago.
Created by Craig McCracken (the writer behind Netflix’s cosmic child), the original series of The Powerpuff Girls ran from 1998 to 2005 over six seasons and 76 episodes.
All 76 episodes are now streaming on Netflix starting April 2, 2023 with Powerpuff Girls: It Was The Fight Before Christmas (2003) and The Powerpuff Girls Rule!!! (2008) was also added to Netflix on April 1, 2023. They have been licensed by Netflix for two years, which means it is subject to removal in 2025.
The series featured the voices of Cathy Cavadini, Tara Strong, and Elizabeth Daily. The show was about the Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup sisters devoting their lives to saving the world from crime and fighting the forces of evil.
No other Netflix region received the show.
Netflix USA had previously been the streaming home for Powerpuff Girls, but not for any extended period of time. According newonnetflix.infoit first appeared in September 2014, with a single season added before the remaining five were added in 2015.
Sadly, its time on Netflix in its entirety was brief, and it was removed entirely in 2016.
Could more Cartoon Network shows make the jump to Netflix?
with the return of powerpuff girlsit’s easy to imagine that this is the start of other Cartoon Network shows possibly rejoining Netflix.
After all, Netflix used to host a huge catalog of Cartoon Network shows like Fish soup, The adventures of Bill and Mandyand lazlo camp, among many more, as we were reminded this weekend.

We’ve seen in the last few months since the Warner Bros. Discovery merger that they’ve been much more open to licensing and working with other distributors like Netflix again. Case in point, we’ve seen the DC show dead detectives sold to Netflix.
We spoke with RegularCapital on Twitter (an account that follows all the goings-on from Warner Bros Discovery and its subsidiaries), who told us: “Lately, WBD has been licensing programming to other broadcasters for a little more cash, as the old strategy of all in one single transmitter does not. work.”
A live-action Powerpuff Girls series was in development for The CW, but after the project scrapped and reworkedit is currently unclear where it is in development.
