Leave it to Dead Metal to have the word 'Pronz' in his signature.

Plus what about modern crap like the Armada trilogy, Pokemon and the other mons, The Batman and Teen Titans?
Pokemon has a lot to answer for since it inspired the anime style in other cartoons.

Space Ghost (original, not adult swim)
Sea Lab 2020 (original, not sea lab 2021 from adult swim)
Stargate the cartoon series
and countless others that for some reason wont come to mind..
Transformers is in the same boat as GI JOE, Flintstones, Jetsons, Smurfs and others if not better than those.
People are just hating on transformers to get readers attention. Since the movie is out, they figure its a good way to get noticed.
Honestly I love the original cartoon because of its basic idea and out of all of the transformers cartoons, it had the most characters by far. Not to mention the vehicles at the time were close to modern vehicles where the new cartoons have the transformers looking like vehicles likely in the year 2097 or beyond. Yeah it could of used a deeper story line and done better as there were a lot of lazy mistakes but it was drawn, and a lot of time could of been saved for story boarding and editing if they had help from computers.
I swear if we could get adult swim to take over the old G1 cartoon with the cells and such since adult swim's partner Cartoon Network is now in league with Hasbro, then there's no telling how awesome transformers would be.
I just wish these dorks would realize that its not helping kids to dumb down the cartoons. If a kid doesnt understand something, they ask their parents and friends, and guess what, it helps them learn. But as a kid, they could of went really deep with transformers and I wouldnt of cared as i just loved watching transformer robots!

modern stuff is WAY better than G1, people just don't see it because they are too stuck in the past

Way better than G1 my arse. Armada was crap, and you had zero development in any characters except for Starscream. Energon was worse, since you didn't have a lot of development for anyone other than Kicker. Cybertron was good, but still nowhere near G1. G1 was great, because you had a large number of characters, yet most of them still got a lot of screen time, and character development. G1 was good because it told stories. Many of them. It wasn't one big, ongoing story, like the Japanese cartoons. The modern stuff is nowhere NEAR G1's greatness.
