Kicking off its global return to television with a world premiere event Monday night at the South by Southwest festival in Austin, TX, the debut of highly-anticipated new series was open to the public, giving fans of all ages the first look at the reimagined show, complete with an exclusive screening and a larger-than-life balloon parade.
For those who couldn’t attend the event in Austin, don’t worry -- we’ve got you covered! Starting today, an all-new episode, “Man Up,” from the upcoming series is available now -- for free! -- exclusively via iTunes.
In the episode, when Buttercup’s aggression inadvertently allows villain Man-Boy to escape, she starts a new-age lifestyle in an effort to be more calm. But when Man-Boy returns to enact his revenge, Buttercup must embrace the balance between punching and hugging in order to defeat him. You can watch it here.
