Cartoon Network has announced its slate of upcoming series for the 2015-2016 season, and while there aren't many surprises, there are a few interesting inclusions to note. Come along with me ...!

For one, that Powerpuff Girls reboot that was talked about last summer now has a few more details attached, like the fact that Adventure Time's Nick Jennings will be executive producing the show.

Speaking of Adventure Time, the long-running (and super awesome) series will be getting its own miniseries that will focus on a Princess Bubblegum experiment gone wrong -- one that unleashes ghosts from Marceline's past (never a good thing). Regular Show will also be getting its own movie, in addition to its regularly scheduled series episodes (the same is true for Adventure Time).

As for new acquired programming, there's Transformers: Robots in Disguise, as well as Supernoobs, from Scott Fellows (Johnny Test) -- more details below.

Cartoon Network is also looking to expand accessibility to its content, as noted in the press release:

“We are seeing great results with our platform-inclusive strategy to expand the definition of programming across all screens” said Christina Miller, President and General Manager, Cartoon Network- Boomerang -Adult Swim. “Whether in short or long form there are no walls for how Cartoon Network can be consumed. Digital, mobile and TV have all come together for this new generation of kids, who are very comfortable with the sheer volume of choice; and when you deliver compelling original content and innovative ways of experiencing it, they will find it, engage with it, and share it on every platform.”
