If Prime continues this way it will be the best series ever made the series is just epic both in look and in story with awesome action and characters that draw you into that world.

I am a G1 original and I am actually liking Prime more than G1 cause of the dark overtone of the series and everthing makes G1 look like a kitty cat in comparison but I respect what G1 has done and how it brought joy to my child-hood.

I see lots of flash-back episode for Prime one showing us the 3 year disappearance of the cons. and another explaining the back story of how the got with Fowler and how they got the Missle Silo I dont think the makers of Prime will leave this story plot a missing gap for to long as I see these as multi-part story lines.

I also see more new characters being introduced in Prime as Optimus clearly stated that some are in hiding in the Galaxy and send a message for them to join them on Earth it is a clear indication that more will join them.

Just sucks we have to wait until Feb 11 but I guess I can watch V and play me some good games until then I waited this long just to watch Prime so another month or so is nothing.

I disagree that Beast wars owns this series. Beast wars was good but i think once Prime really gets rolling it will be the best series since G1 and dare i say it, with it's dark undertones may eventually be better than G1.

im sorry i have to totally disagree that beast wars owns this series and beast wars deffantely didnt own G1. But i will say TFprime is better then deff BW and i will go as far as to say better then G1 as a fan of G1. But what is sad is there is few from work said they didnt like it it was more so so that they didnt like the zombie part, i have to disagree with them this mini series was AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

So, how long have the Autobots been on Earth,

At least three years.

For some reason I had 3 years in my head - was it said in episode 1?

Yes. And episode 2.

how did they get there,

The Ark, which we saw in WFC and read about in Exodus.

Sorry, don't have the game. I did read Exodus, but not convinced that these three are supposed to be tied together.

It's a forced continuity, like how Cybertron/Galaxy Force was forced in with Armada/Micron Densetsu and Energon/Super Link.

Ok, stop rolling your eyes at me! I'd love to see Beast Wars...is it on DVD?

Beast Wars had a total of 3 seasons, which were put on three DVD sets in 2003-2004 (which are all currently out of print).

It's too early to declare TF: Prime as being better than Beast Wars. Beast Wars has had 52 episodes and 10+ years of legacy to live off of. TF: Prime has only had five episodes on a channel that's still not that well known to people (half the TF fans I talk to in person have never heard of TF: Prime or even the Hub), and those five episodes weren't even the main story; just an introductory mini-series.

Beast Wars was already better than G1, so if Prime is better than Beast Wars, it already is better than G1.

Truth!

Though, I've a pretty suspicious feeling that Prime will definitely be better than G1 (topping Beast Wars and Animated will be a challenge, though).

You know, it's a pretty decent show, it's such a shame it has the stink of those two hacks attached to it. You can see their unoriginality and lack of creativity creeping in.

I see that too. Most of the lines are from G1 or the movies, Bumblebee can't talk, the characters are just Animated, but with Prowl replaced with Arcee, the zombies have to have their limbs cut or blown off. the space bridge acts just like the space bridges in Animated, the ground bridge works just like the ground bridges in Armada, and when they bring in someone who is an original version of themselves, he gets killed off in the first episode.

Yeah, I just looked. It can still be found, but I'll have to forgo buying bananas for awhile...

So, just watched it again with my roommates, and thought of something that I don't think has been mentioned yet--

What happened to all the Zombicons? Does anyone else find it absolutely horrifying that Cybertron is just full of zombies now? So much for ever going home, Autobots. See what you did, Megatron? See what you did?

Maybe they all got caught in the explosion with Megatron, what with them being so close to the Space Bridge (almost touching Megatron's fingertips) when it blew.

Ah, but the plot thickens. What if they find a way to somehow bring them out of that zombie stage and allow the TF universe of characters to come back to their normal selves and really open up the number of characters? I can dream can't I?

[HoosierDaddy]

I'm sure the writers won't do this but since the power of Unicron infused into the sparks of the Bots creates evil zombies why couldn't the autobots find a way to infuse the power of the even more powerful Primus into them to return their sparks to normal? Sure some would still be loyal to the decepticons whiles others would still be loyal to the autobots but it gets rid of the zombie problem.

[Galvatron X]

Regarding the "Zombicons", how exactly did they get to the Space Bridge anyway? Was it on the ground at Cybertron? You mean to tell me an entire planet of Zombicons made it to this space bridge in, what, 2 minutes?

Just thinking out loud here. I'm really not that much of a stickler for details like this...
