The Powerpuff Girls (Universal Kids Mascots)

The Powerpuff Girls are the mascots of Universal Kids, after Thomas the Tank Engine left. They are a trio of artificially made superhuman elementary schoolers created by Professor Utonium. They are the title characters of the Cartoon Network series of the same name, the 2016 reboot of the same name, and the anime Powerpuff Girls Z. Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup Moose are the on-air teachers of Universal Kids. They engage their family audience by curating experiences, facilitating discovery, and asking questions. As the teacher figures they are knowledgeable but almost Socratic in their eagerness to see the audience figure things out for themselves. They often delivers information by asking a question. Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup are excellent instructors, sharing in the children's enthusiasm and curiosity.

Before They Became On-Air Teachers on Universal Kids
Originally in 2004, Blossom, Bubbles and Buttercup were in the Powerpuff Girl house. One day, Professor Utonium dropped off his brother, Eugene to the train station and decided it looked good, so he could sign up for them as well. He talked to Thomas the Tank Engine, who was currently a roadie for the Powerpuff Girls and convinced them to come and have a look too. This is where they met Moose and Zee. They studied Early Childhood Teaching.

Starting on Sprout
One day, Professor Utonium had the idea to launch the channel of children's television series, so the 3 girls, launched and released the channel 2005.

The Mayor of Townsville was employed by NBCUniversal as an assistant to the Sprout program in which Eugene Utonium had enrolled as a student. Ms. Bellum had previously been employed as Assistant Editor for the Classical/Educational Division of the American based music publishing house of NBCUniversal Cable Entertainment Group as well as having worked for the Comcast Company. Professor Utonium first approached Miss Keane requesting he write for the debut of Sprout. Blossom also contributed the most financially to the project. The channel as to afford the Powerpuff girls a contract for Universal Kids for to further recordings but The Mayor of Townsville soon found himself dumped by Professor Utonium after the debut channel appeared.

Professor Utonium states he had a verbal agreement to write for subsequent albums and whilst a document was drawn up for Professor Utonium agreeing that he would just stay behind the scenes as a writer and not be classified as a performer it was never officially acted upon. Professor Utonium did however appear in the film clip for Barney the Dinosaur at the request of Bubbles some months after initially leaving the group as a performer. According to The Powerpuff Girls' autobiogrpahy, it would seem none of the other members of the group knew he had been asked back to be in the clip. In May 2006 went to the US to perform at ceremonies honoring the legendary showman/pianist Liberace, whose family and friends Eugene knew well, and when Eugene came back to Townsville he could not get in any contact with Professor Utonium or any other of the citizens and the Powerpuff Girls. Eventually, he was told that the channel was launched without him and Eugene was no longer needed. Eugene was in the States no longer than three weeks. Blossom states in her book "Now and Then" that they had a three week deadline by which to record the second announcement "How to Become On-Air Teachers", a deadline Eugene was apparently unaware of and one which coincides with the exact dates they were performing in the States. Although he had already written nearly the whole channel by themselves, they later released The Powerpuff Girls Rule!! independently involving those songs which has received favourbale critical acclaim from several early childhood music experts.

Touring Around the World
The Powerpuff Girls have released close to fifty concert tours and video's and toured relentlessly, but in the USA, Canada, Europe, Australia, Asia and many other places. They have one numerous amounts of awards and have been named the most successful children's act of all time.
