That's kind of rude (but true).

But I'm surprised nobody has updated the news post. What's up with that?
Maybe no one's submitted the news or alerted any of the news staff yet.

Thought someone had told them by now. It's not a matter of great concern to me, and I'm sure someone already did.

*scrolls down*

Yep, they updated it. Nevermind.

Well, we don't yet know if it ends at four. All we know is that it doesn't end at three and there's a fourth coming. Its ending remains unknown.

I don't see Prime's run as "short" at all. At the end of Season 2 we'll have 52 episodes, same as Beast Wars, Armada, Energon, and Cybertron. Since Season 3 is confirmed to have at least 16 episodes, that makes Prime the longest running series since G1.

Now don't get me wrong, I don't want Prime to end either, as it is a really good show(even if it is just a tad status quo-ey), but it has had and is having a good run.

However, episode counts don't mean squat if half of them are sub par filler episodes. Here's hoping for continued quality.

The show should end, its too inconsistent especially when transformers battle. An example of what I am talking about would be the One Shall Rise Episode and the later episode where Nemesis Prime/Silas beats the entire Autobot team. In one episode they are extremely powerful in the next they are beaten by a human in a big robot, and the reason, because he used his years of military combat experience. last time I checked the Transformers were fighting for Millions years....... We also have similar situations, with the recent Insecticon episodes.
Transformers Animated and WFC/FOC are the most interesting interpretations of Transformers that has come along in recent years. Unfortunately I would/will not miss Transformers Prime when it gets cancelled.

Season 1 already ruined it for me. Season 2 is a vast improvement, though, but still not quite there, yet there is hope.

"Darkness Rising" was awful. Easily the worst part of the show.
Nothing majorly exciting happened from episode 6 to 11 (Breakdown and Knock Out coming in was expected to happen from the get-go, so they just helped to get the status quo into what it was already meant to be).
"Predatory" was cool, I'll give you that.
13-14 were also good
"Shadowzone" felt pointless and "Operation: Breakdown" felt unnecessarily dark
"Crisscross" was great
"Metal Attraction" had no meat to it
19-20 were very good
21-22 had promise, but ultimately went nowhere (except for making Ratchet cool in 22).
23-26 were trying WAAAAAY to hard to be epic, and pulled the unimpressively cliche Unicron card to do it, using the guy way too early in the series and thus giving the finale a very hollow feeling of unoriginality (minus him being inside the Earth, but it was still him, regardless). Though, the return of Orion Pax was a welcome, but that was covered more by season 2. :roll:

Only 7 out of 26 episodes really stood out for me. The rest was a disappointment.

Season 2 has gotten so much better, though, but it needs to kick it up just a little more.

Hey, no series is perfect. It's no secret these days that G1 was far from perfect, and not even Beast Wars is without its own share of flaws. It's okay to still like something, warts and all.

Posted: **Mon Sep 17, 2012 9:07 am**

I'm really happy that there will be a fourth season. Prime deserves it.

Posted: **Mon Sep 17, 2012 9:14 am**

I love the series, flaws and all. Sure, a LOT of boring, pointless filler eps. But when there is a story arc, it usually has you on the edge of your seat. Overall, the series is written well, it's just that the pace needs to be picked up a bit. Not so much crutch reliance, either.

But it is pretty to look at, especially on Blu-Ray in full HD 1080p. Mmm...HD... *drools*

You got that right, it is gorgeous in 1080p.

I'm going through and watching all of G1 one right now... Just got through Season 1. My, what a terrible show! Lol, take it with a grain of salt, though. The dialogue in the show is ridiculously hilarious and the quality is poor. Granted, as a child, you don't really care about that stuff and just think, transforming robots are awesome! Still, it's nostalgic, and it lightly grazes the surface of things that inspired future iterations and comics.

I feel Prime has been a great example of paying homage to G1 but has shown how much the series as matured. I hope this series sees a Season 5. Cutting it off at season 3 would be a shame, but 4 seems reasonable to me.

Okay, maybe not that much, but I want Prime to go to 2015 like the presentation said.

2) Well, look at the original picture.

wait...is megatron holding his hand out for me to take hold of?
NO!
that is not the decepticon league i signed to join!
peacefull and pacifist soundwave with his flower-ball and starscream smiling at me! SMILING AT ME! MY EVIL IS ONLY MATCHED BY LORD MEGATRON! DO NOT SMILE AT ME!!
Prime Megatron, you better put your army back in place or else ill have to join with that stupid CYBERTRON megatron.
:sad:

and he died four times.... four times!!!

but joking aside, artistic wise the pic is GREAT!PROFESIONAL GRADE, but its lack of the decepticon vibe of: "i am going to kill you now" is totally lacking.

-tanks for answering!

Cybertron? A spark? The Cybertronian equivalent of cotton candy?

As for Prime, I'm kinda glad they've said they have plans for the series until 2014/15. I think Hasbro was putting in WAY too much work on their "Binder of Revelation" to end the series after only 68 episodes and 2.5 season. Although, if Prime does last until 2015, it will arguably be the longest TV series in the franchise' history (even if you count Beast Wars and Beast Machines as one series).

Slightly related question: I found the following picture in the TFWiki Facebook page, with the poster claiming it was "official." Is there any truth to the claim?

Personally, it looks like a fan-made Photoshop to me, albeit a fairly good one. Furthering my doubts is that I have seen nothing from Hasbro confirming or denying that "Beast Hunters" has anything to do with Transformers at all.

(glad im not the only one who has trouble with the quote system...)

why would cybertron look like flowers? i dont remember a spark being represented like that before. HE HAS NO MOUTH!! how would he eat it if it was the equivalent of cottoncandy!!
(not here to pick fight just having some fun)

oh, and dont ever say beast wars and ..."THAT MONSTROCITY" in the same sentence, unless u are saying beast wars is better than ...it.....

and what do you mean "binder of revelation"?

Now that I've read a little more into the thread, it seems "Beast Hunters" is a running title for the next season, but I'll keep an eye out for an official word from Hasbro/Kevin Kline. But it does "hint" at the appearance of Grimlock at the very least, especially since Gregg Berger has been confirmed as a voice for the next season.

Still, will wait for offical confirmation.
