DVD The Powerpuff Girls - Meet The Beat-Alls
Townsville's cutest cops curb a brutish invasion by a new breed of mop tops in Meet the Beat-Alls, a Powerpuff caper so packed with sly Beatles references it could sink a yellow submarine. Forget the under-15-minute running time--here, Bubbles, Buttercup, and Blossom face the longest and windingest road of their crime-fighting careers, as Mojo Jojo, Him, Princess, and Fuzzy Lumpkins band together to become the Beat-Alls--the Bad Four--a collective that soars to the pole position on the most-wanted charts, sending girls screaming. When the police cry out for help--they need somebody--the girls gather their gumption and go forward with a plan to break up the Beat-Alls: They enlist Moko, a white-costumed monkey with seductive Asian flair, to pose as a performance criminal. Fellow simian Mojo Jojo, who thought he was a loner, goes bananas; soon the other Beat-Alls beat it and the girls bust in and break the news that Mojo's going nowhere, man. All that spoofing doesn't sap the Powerpuffs of their superheroine steam: In "Bought & Scold" they square off against Princess, whose daddy throws down the cash to crown her mayor; in "Bubblevision" they're a sight for sore eyes, even though one of them looks dorky in her new glasses, as a giant ant rips through town; "Jewel of the Aisle" finds them firing away at a gem thief posing as cereal hero Lucky Captain Rabbit King; and demented lout Lenny's plan to possess the Powerpuffs comes crashing down in "Collect Her." If you're old enough to get the gags, allow the title episode to edge out other potential Powerpuff purchases, it's that clever. Otherwise, whatever propels you, rest assured that not one of these episodes will let you down or leave you flat. For children ages 7 and up. --Tammy La Gorce
Review(s): DVD The Powerpuff Girls - Meet The Beat-Alls
Meet the Beat-Alls
I have to agree that the definite highlight of the Powerpuff Girls are their satirical references to pop culture. Take for instance the episode where they meet Lucky Captain Rabbit King, mascot of his own cereal (does that ring a bell?) They do it again in "Meet the Beat-Alls." After Mojo Jojo, Princess, Him, and Fuzzy Lumpkins can't take one more whupping from the PPG, they band together to from the Beat-Alls. Here's where the fun starts: as the episode progresses, the lyrics from the everlasting songs of the Beatles play in tune to the word play. Some examples are Hey Jude and Help! It will give you more than a chuckle after watching "Meet the Beat-Alls" more than once.
A laugh for any Beatles fan
This is definatlry a milestone in PPG history! Overflowing with Beatles jokes and parodies, this episode is one of the best Beatles satires I have seen. And this isn't just casual referneces. These people did their research. They not only did they refer to parts of songs that one would have to really know the song to get, they also used a small clip of the Beat-Alls ( Mojo, Princess, Him, and Fuzzy)beating up the Beatles from the old 60's Saturday morning cartoon. They also used famous quotes from the Beatles such as John's "Will all the people in the cheaper seats clap their hands and all the others just rattle your jewlery." If your a Beatles fan or just really like the Powerpuff girls, I highly recommend this video!
So Funny You May Hurt Yourself
I'm not THAT big a fan of the Beatles, or the Powerpuff Girls. I've only occasionally watched the PpG, and, while I'm familiar with most of the Beatles music, like anyone who listens to classic rock radio, I'm hardly an expert in them.
"Meet the Beat-Alls", though, is screamingly funny. Yes, there are jokes that will fly right over the heads of casual Fab Four fans, but if you know the songs reasonably well, there's plenty here to keep you amused.
You may be saying, "But I taped this off the air -- why buy a copy?" Well, despite the fact its a crystal-clear DVD transfer, the disk includes Mojo Jojo's commentary on "Meet the Beat-Alls", which has even more Beatles humor.

Bubblevicious This trio of crime-fighting superheroines must work around kindergarten obligations, and if you've seen the Cartoon Network series you know they must save the world before bedtime. But they rise to the challenge with the help of their guardian-creator, Professor Utonium. In the Emmy-nominated title episode, Bubbles gets fed up with being "the cute one," while her comrades get the better assignments, so she takes on a series of ugly baddies, resulting in many fires and explosions. There are five episodes on this 60-minute tape, including the double-episode "Uh-Oh Dynamo," which finds the girls battling a monster at the city park.

Birthday Bash Sugar, spice, everything nice, and a bit of Chemical X is what it took to bring us Bubbles, Blossom, and Buttercup--also known as those crime- fighting kindergartners, the Powerpuff Girls. This video collection of five episodes from their hit Cartoon Network show provides a delightfully humorous introduction to the minuscule marvels. The title episode, "Birthday Bash," features the girls defeating the destructive plans of three separate villains (Mojo Jojo, the Princess, and the Amoeba Boys) without ever leaving their own birthday celebration. "Beat Your Greens" introduces us to alien broccoli, and "Stuck Up, Up and Away" shows the origin of the girls' female nemesis, Princess. "School House...

This was great. I don't see as many holiday episodes of the Powerpuff Girls as I do with other cartoons (IE Rugrats, SpongeBob SquarePants, ETC). In fact, this is the only holiday episode of PPG that I can recall. The plot was excellent. Buy this now if you're a PPG fan!!!!

The third Powerpuff Girls DVD to be released so far, "The Mane Event" is far and away the best of the three. The first two volumes, "Down N' Diry" and "Powerpuff Bluff", had little in the way of special extras aside from trivia games and DVD-ROM options. "The Mane Event", on the other hand, is a treasure trove of special features. The disc includes only 6 cartoons culled from the show itself (the other DVDs had 10), but it makes up for it by including two cartoons that have never been seen before on television, "Helter Shelter" and "Power Lunch". These two cartoons arent the best PPG cartoons ever made, but they alone are worth the purchase. The biggest bonus of the DVD is the addition of Craig McCraken's first student film with the girls, "Whoop@@#$$ Stew", which not only can be watched...

The prologue to every Powerpuff Girls show explains how the perky threesome were created in Professor Utonium's lab--by a combination of sugar, spice, and everything nice, along with an accidental dash of Chemical X--but how is it that they started fighting crime? Why didn't they just take their superpowers to the playground and use them for fun? And what's behind evil monkey MoJo JoJo's never-ending quest for Powerpuff vengeance? All questions are answered in The Powerpuff Girls Movie, which details the creation of Blossom (the commander and leader), Bubbles (the joy and laughter), and Buttercup (the toughest fighter) in more depth than ever before, and the result is a speedy, fun joy ride through the girls' early days. At first, the girls are happy-go-lucky, fitting in...
