Actually I'm really trying to find anything valuable in the new series, but simply I can't. I still haven't seen a full episode yet, but I did read a lot and saw some clips at strawberryshortcake.com, and I found it quite ugly. Nah, but it's off-topic here, maybe I'll create a new thread to discuss the 2009 series.

Personally, I find it interesting to see the changes that characters have gone through over all the incarnations.

Having actual professional voice actors makes so much difference.
