It's not so much how sugary the new reboot is so much so the new PPG's humor style. Now, I'm not going to fret over the internet meme jokes - cringy as they are, they're few and far between. It's just that the original PPG felt so much more like a working parody of these sugary shows, with smarter and more self-aware humor. The new PPG scraps that in favor of tamer character, tamer plots, tamer jokes, and a general tone that matches up as more like a distilled version of any given CN network show. Marketable? Yes. But lacking the spirit of the original.
