Cartoon Vault: Bratz

Whenever I cover a 00s cartoon I'm reminded of how unkind that decade was to animation and as were still in really terrible month I'm going to try Bratz.

Lets see how long I can go without vomiting.
Yasmin, Cloe, Sasha and Jade run a fashion magazine called Bratz in the town of Stylesville which is in direct competition with the magazine "Your Thing" run by a caricature of an older Paris Hilton named Burdine Maxwell and her interns the tweevils as she tries to ruin the Bratz, this plot mixed with poor CGI animation and the same tired school sitcom plot that Disney and Nicklodeon insist is still popular is pretty much the entire series of Bratz only occasionally trying something different with a tv movie or two.
This series is pure corporate crap, only a toy company could possibly design this and it shows and I name this as the reason why girls cartoons fail miserably; but why do girls cartoons fail in the west while girls anime in Japan thrives?
Simple it's variety.
Take the latest precure, five characters each with their own personalities, standout features that allow you to tell them apart and each having their own goals; They even have interesting villains.
Bratz on the other hand, you can't tell them apart, their personalities don't differ much from each other and the villain is a half ass step mother and ugly step sisters from Cinderella.
Even Europe with Winx Club is better as you can at least tell them apart and they standout if only because their bodies are as impossible as Jessica Rabbit's body.
While they have learned from their mistakes it still pains me to know this was still created and some critics agree as that's what got it cancelled, well that and a change of voice cast.
Bratz is a trend we should avoid, we already have a real life Bratz Doll in Kim Kardashian we don't need anymore; it's lazy, it's creepy, it's a poor influence on young girls and it's so dumb that I actually consider Barbie a better choice. That's the same as picking a slighty better poison, they'll still kill you just one will do it faster.
