So true, the story sucks too... I hate all of that guy Tartakovsky (spell?) works, way too crappy....

For me, the animation doesn't really have to be top notch all the time. The simpilicity of the animation is fine with me. I really dug Dexter's Lab for a while. There were also a few pop culture references in those episodes. Besides, don't some of you secretly wish to have a lab or hangar someplace with transformable mecha?
I am ashamed to admit to watching the Powerpuff girls once or twice. The animation is simple there too, but there was one epsiode that was very entertaining. The dialogue throughout the episode was based on lyrics by the Beatles. Mojo Jojo took a girlfriend who was patterned after Yoko Ono. It was very clever. There were several references to things that Yoko and Lennon did (such as the interview in bed).
I guess maybe I'm not sophisticated as some here, but I just like to be entertained and don't really need a huge all encompassing story or deep character designs. I hope someday that we'll see Jack defeat Aku. I look forward to how the conflict gets resolved.
But like WDC says, $30 for a 13 episode DVD is pretty damn good.
