* [=PhantomHeartless5=]: I was going to change my entry to

to:

* [=PhantomHeartless5=]: I was going to change my entry to \"Halt and Catch Silico\", due to the way it [[BadassDecay utterly butchered]] [[EvilIsCool Silico\'s]] character, but Bliss\' backstory in \"The Power of Four\" special rubbed me the wrong way due to how it spits in the face of the established canon. Ok, so apparently Bliss is the original Powerpuff Girl who was created by the Professor in an attempt to compete with a rival who had created the perfect little boy and that he went through the experiment 22 times to get it right. Now that doesn\'t work for two reasons: 1. In the established canon, the Professor created the girls out of a need for family and a desire to make Townsville a better place. Here, it makes the Professor look like a glory seeking jackass rather than the altruistic scientist we know and love. 2. In the established canon, the Professor didn\'t intend to give them superpowers. He was trying to create three normal little girls. The only reason the girls have superpowers in the first place is because Mojo, who at the time was the Professor\'s feral pet monkey, pushed the Professor, causing him to spill the Chemical X into the concoction. So writers, you expect me to believe that the Professor had Mojo push him 22 times? My WillingSuspensionOfDisbelief only goes so far, writers. The special as a whole was [[SoOkayItsAverage average]] at best, but Bliss\' backstory was the sign that the show had jumped the shark in the worst way possible.

Last I checked, a reboot is a complete overhaul of an original work with very little, if any, connection to the original. So why would the PPG reboot rely an already established canon? It just seems like this entry is getting mad at the reboot for being a reboot.

Don\'t get me wrong, I\'m not saying they have to like what the writers did for Bliss\' backstory, but to get upset that the writers ignored something the original did when it isn\'t trying to rely on the original canon, sounds like it\'s missing the point of what a reboot is supposed to be.
