Corrected entry: Not sure of the episode name, but the episode where Mojo, Him, and 2 other villains join forces, absolutely everything in the episode refers to The Beatles, from what they call themselves to song references to quotes. One example is when they are taking several pictures: this references to the cover of "A Hard Day's Night."
The Powerpuff Girls (1998)
1 corrected entry in show generally
Starring: Tara Strong, Tom Kenny, Elizabeth Daily, Cathy Cavadini
The Powerpuff Girls Best Rainy Day Adventure Ever / Just Desserts - S2-E10
Plot hole: I don't think the police would throw the wife and children in the same jail cell as Harold.
Boogie Frights / Abracadaver - S1-E5
Trivia: The scene of the Powerpuffs flying along the disco ball is parodied of a scene of Star Wars (episode IV). Note the PPGs having to shoot one area to explode the ball.
Question: I've heard that the original name for this show wasn't "The Powerpuff Girls" and that the original name had to be censored. Anyone knows what was the original name of this show and why it was censored?
Answer: The original name of the show was "The Whoopass Girls", so called because their father accidentally spilled a can of whoopass into the sugar, spice, and everything nice. The reason that this was changed should be obvious. You'll never be able to sell a bunch of toys to children if these toys have the the word "whoopass" on the front.

Correction: The episode is called "The Beat-alls", and is an obvious parody/homage to the Beatles. This isn't really trivia as it's obvious to anyone watching the episode.
