Not that I caught. It was pretty mainstream stuff. But I'm also not familiar with Wrestling so I probably wouldn't have caught any unless it was the two lines above.

People let me explain: Prime begins with Darkness Rising a 5prt. Opening Pilot.

Then the rest of the 21 episodes of season 1 to be shown later on.

There is a scheduled 65 episodes for Prime in total but could go beyond that if it does good.

According to my caculations Prime will be about 3 or 4 seasons long.

Each season will house about 21 or so episodes in each with mult-part episodes in them such as a season ender or a season opener as with Animated.

I repeat Darkness Rising is a PILOT, meaning the 1st episode later on Prime will show 21 episodes.

I repeat they are more episodes to come.

The rest of the episode sounds good but I think the intro scene is terrible. What a waste of a character. But I guess that's to be expected from the writing team that wasted Jazz and Sideways entirely as well.

I'll give the show a chance, but the way they were hyping him and what with the somewhat famous voice actor I'd hoped he'd be in it more. It's been too long since I'd seen him get any screen time.

Wait until you hear what happens to poor ol' Cliffjumper's cadaver in the next episode. Let's just say ... Transformers meets 28 Days Later! I would be really surprised if they didn't find a way to bring Cliffjumper back by the end of Darkness Rising.

Oh, yeah! And I thought Animated looked horrible, then got good as soon as the opening! This looks like it may be better!

Ugh. Yeah I found the expanded summary for episode 2 and then read your reply and my eyes began to roll. Do we really need Zombies in EVERYTHING now? I watch the Walking Dead, and had no plans to read Infestation.

I will give it a shot and I'll probably love the rest of the series, but I still think it's a waste if they don't bring him back.

Seeing this show getting a full 65 episode run just makes me more frustrated about Animated.

At first I thought it was because Paramount didn't want any attention drawn away from movie toys, then I thought it was because the show wasn't following the 'to sell toys' guideline very well, lately I've been thinking that it was just Warner Brothers deciding to throw away another of their good shows for no reason, and right now I'm thinking it was a combination of all three.

The first rule seems to apply considering that Hasbro stated that there were no plans to make a toyline for TF: Prime, however the second rule doesn't for the same reason. The third rule makes sense, because right now Cartoon Network seems like the same f**kwits who run Adult Swim are now running the entire channel.

Sorry, I realize this is an old issue, and I'm probably way off anyway. But I just needed to vent a little.


Anyway, I tried to avoid reading most of it but I couldn't help the temptation of reading the part about Cliffjumper dieing. Now, I haven't actually heard these interviews myself, mostly because I hate wrestlers who try to be actors (no matter who they are), but my brother has told me that Dwayne Johnson stated he didn't want to do as much kids stuff anymore and get back to being in action flicks. This is a possible reason for Cliffjumpers death, also the fact that he's a movie actor ergo he's more expensive.

First, congrats on the exclusive! This is one of the many reasons why Siebertron.com is my preferred TF news source!

Second, I have Hub on BASIC CABLE in Iowa (gotta love ImOn Cable). I'll be watching with a fervor, along with my 3 year old son. I'm liking what I'm seeing so far!
