This is my favorite episode ever!!! The Boys are Back!!! I would rate this higher but I hate the fact that Brick, Butch and Boomer are made to look stupid. Really, I love the new hair and that they now have individual personalities, but, why do they have to have stupid personalities?? I think Craig McCracken didn't want to make them like that actually....

Anyway...awsome episode dude!! It had cool action and I just love the new look of the boys!!! I love Brick's long hair and Boomer's messy hair. Butch's hair is....okay

This is why I watch the Powerpuff Girls..when I can find them on TV...moreless

Him is sick and tired of seeing the Power Puff Girls beating every single villain including himself, but then thought of bringing the Rowdy Ruff Boys back to life. The Rowdy Ruff Boys get by each kiss more power instead of the death they got earlier, which makes the Power Puff Girls thinking of another Strategy. Eventually when Butch bit his tounge the Power Puff Girls noticed Butch decreasing in Power, so the Power Puff Girls defeated the Rowdy Ruff Boys by treating them like babies.moreless
