"Bratz" is a computer-animated television series, based on a line of toy dolls of the same name. It is produced by Mike Young Productions and MGA Entertainment, and premiered on the FOX 4Kids TV television programming block on September 10, 2005.

This show follows the adventures of Jade, Yasmin, Sasha, & Cloe as they launch issues of their Bratz Magazine. Burdine Maxwell, the evil editor of rival magazine Your Thing, tries to stop the Bratz girls from putting out the magazine. Maxwell is aided by her interns, evil twins Kirstee and Kaycee, aka. "the Tweevils" (a portmanteau of twins and evil, created by Sasha and a parody of Paris and Nicky Hilton). One of them had a nose-job and wears a bandage covering her nose.

The events in the TV series followed on from the direct-to-DVD movie, "Bratz: Rock Angelz".

In fall 2006, 4Kids TV began airing Season 2 of "Bratz". The series was canceled on April 7, 2007. New episodes are currently airing in other countries. Fact|date=January 2008
