"Carnage" was a good idea, executed excrutiatingly badly. Hoist and Powerglide's episodes are SILLY, sure, but their internal logic is functional. "BOT," on the other hand, makes no **** sense. "Swindle, if you don't find Brawl's personalty component so I can have Bruticus, I'm going to totally kill you so I can NEVER have Bruticus!" The Decepticons have a weapon powerful enough to blast the moon out of orbit, and all it does to Transformers is knocked them a few feet through the air. And rather than use the threat of this to ransom copious amounts of energy from the world's governments, they plan to get rid of the moon so that they can... control the flow of the tides, allowing them to have easy-to-obtain hydroelectic power. What the HELL? And the thing's got an OVERLOAD button built onto it, on A CONTROL PANEL THAT'S ONLY SMALL ENOUGH FOR A HUMAN TO USE! And the bit with BOT's speech synthesizer! "You rewired it! Instead of synthesizing and transmitting, it now recieves and decrypts!" RECIEVES AND DECRYPTS FROM *WHAT*?!?!? THAT MAKES NO **** SENSE!! Complete "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow" pseudo-sceience BOLLOCKS NONSENSE. Add in smirking, sociopathic kids who created a deadly weapon for FUN, and the message that if you're not pretty, but smart, then all you'll get for your trouble is a strip of tape slapped over your mouth, and multiply all these factors by ten due to it being the last episode of Season 2, and it is the worst. Episode. EVAR.

:shock: You really hate that episode. Yeah, all valid points. I try not to watch it unless I'm doing a marathon. But my worst ep is still Carnage (might have something to do with teh fact I hate all musicals bar 1. 2 If you count it's sequel.) The constant singing just annoys me no end.

I watched B.O.T. the other day and the whole time I was thinking...When is the nerdy girl going to haphazardly lose her glasses then bump into Swindle and go "Jinkies Shaggy I can't see a thing without my glasses" and then a hilarious chase scene would ensue...

couldnt agree more. There is no excuse for that episode.


B.O.T. wasn't horrible but not great either.
