Prior to the series' release, fake rumors for episodes were spread, including a sexism-themed gaming episode featuring a gator villain called "Gamergater"."Gamergater".
** Many people believe that the character Jared Shapiro (Blossom's nerdy boyfriend) was a self-insert of the writer Jake Goldman, most likely due to his appearance looking exactly like Goldman. To make things worse, the voice is also by Jake himself, which many people blew way out of proportion, accusing Jake of being a child predator, especially with a scene with a muscular Jared. [[https://gizmodo.com/this-creepy-powerpuff-girls-theory-isnt-true-thank-god-1795730698 Luckily, this rumor has since been debunked by storyboarder Grace Kraft,]] who stated that the team thought it would be ActuallyPrettyFunny to model Jared after Jake and fitting if he voiced him, too.
** Due to [[https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/powerpuff/images/7/78/Bubbles_original_OUAT.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20230522062818 a picture posted on the (unofficial) Powerpuff Girls wiki,]] it's been claimed that the "Princess B-Tough" rap scene in original airing of the episode "Once Upon A Townsville" had a brief shot of Bubbles dressed as a prositute and holding a smoking cigarette, which was edited in web videos. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6K1VO-hUumU A recording of the original airing of this episode shows Bubbles dressed differently, officially debunking that claim.]] As it turns out, the picture in question was edited from a screenshot of the scene, probably to stir up more hatred for the show than it really deserved.

* CreatorBacklash: After the endless criticism from critics and fans, and ratings that only got lower and lower, Cartoon Network seemed to eventually disregard the whole show, with moving premieres to Saturdays with no advertising, less and less presence on the channel, and eventually, once they finally pulled the plug, no longer air reruns on CN or Boomerang, and have started to sell merchandise with the original show’s designs again, seemingly wanting to leave the show behind them. To add insult to injury, Craig [=McCracken=] eventually returned to Cartoon Network to make another reboot, more or less putting the 2016 reboot behind them once and for all.

* In the Dutch dub, Priscilla Kneteman would replace Hetty Heyting as Blossom and Anneke Beukman would replace Ingeborg Wieten as Buttercup. It's likely the original actresses were blackballed, as Heyting does voice [[WesternAnimation/FiremanSam Sarah Jones]], who is about the same age as Blossom, and Beukman is about the same age as Wieten.
