Worst Transformer show ever
Rating:1 out of 5 stars
This show looks cheap and let’s face it they don’t even look like robots! It shouldn’t even be called Transformers! I keep waiting for the next episode in which they fight Bob the Builder or the Teletubbies. Seriously how can anyone like how these “robots” look with their bad proportions and sloppy looking style? Stay away from this one and hopefully one day we will get a Transformer show with good writing AND looks cool.

An enjoyable show for Transformer fans
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
Overall, this is an enjoyable series, but I do have two complaints.

The first is just a matter of taste. I am not a huge fan of the style of drawing used in this series. Far too many cartoons these days are regressing to this simplictic, childish style of animation. The stories, however, are good enough to help overlook this and the type humor in the show would likely not work as well with more realistic artwork.

My bigger complaint if in the depiction of Optimus Prime himself. There is no sense (at least where I am at, just finishing disk one) that he is in fact the leader of the group. Without Bumblebee calling him "Bossbot", and the history of the whole Transformers franchise, you would think of him as just another member of the group, and not a particularly major one. He is weak, unsure of himself, and is not commanding. As a huge fan of Prime, this was a major let down.

On a postitive note, I very much like the Prowl in this version, and Megatron, though just a head so far, has an air of menace that he lacked in the orginal G1 series.

Good season
Rating:5 out of 5 stars
Season one of Transformers Animated was good. Season 2 was better.

Every one think’s the season one set is missing 3 ep’s. IT’s Not. The first 3 ep’s were the Tv movie. Season1 of TF Animated is Season One.

I like how this show is a remake of the frist Transformer show.

Everything I said about “Transformers Animated: Transform and Roll Out” I also say about this DVD. I can’t wait to see Season 2 and all future seasons.

Great series
Rating:4 out of 5 stars
Transformers Animated is the most recent Transformers cartoon series, and, while it is a little kiddish, it retains the good old-fashioned Transformers feel to it.

There are a few episodes that were a little annoying--especially the ones with the pathetic human villains, which I felt are unnecessary.
My other big problem with Sari (besides her obnxious behavior) is that she has a Deus ex machina Key that fixes everything throughout the series. Even though the Key has side effects, it does not detain Sari from constantly (irresponsibly) using it throughout the series.

The Autobots are adjusting to Earth's ways with the help of a little human girl named Sari (who is, IMO, a spoiled brat--give me Spike any day!), while the Deceptions are mostly just looking for Megatron (and the AllSpark).

All of these characters have personalities. Optimus Prime is as protective as ever, Bumblebee is chatty and childlike, Prowl is as serious as ever, and even the Decepticons have personality. One Decepticon in particular has (literally) three personalities!

There are some other Transformers that show including a certain spider from a certain Beast Wars and Sound Wave.

This series has humor and action. I highly recommend it (as long as you do not mind the annoying humans, especially Sari).

Not what I remembered
Rating:3 out of 5 stars
The episodes are OK at best. I compare them to the first the first two seasons of the SIMPSONS; Homer has the “different” voice and Bart is the main character. Here, Optimus Prime sounds “funny,” Megatron does not look the same, Starscream is nowhere and they all work with and fight with humans. I know the later seasons will be much better.

Santa brought this to my son this year and he loves it. I appreciate that the 5 hours of programming are split onto 2 discs, so I have a little control of the hours spent watching what felt like “lost episodes” to us – because of not being awake at 7:30 am on Saturday mornings to watch them.
