They Powerpuff Girls are coming back to Cartoon Network in 2016. As you can see above, they look about the same as before. The outlines are thinner, but they still have mouths that can be mistaken for noses (my daughter wasn't pleased to have that pointed out to her, because it's hard to unsee.)
One big change will be the voices of the Powerpuff Girls. The original voices for Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup were provided by Catherine Cavadini, Tara Strong, and Elizabeth Daily. They went on Twitter yesterday to express their disappointment at not even being told about the reboot until the press release was issued. From Tara Strong, the voice of Bubbles:

I have to admit, I like the sound of the new actors' voices already!
