So, I just recently watched Season 2 of Transformers Prime (and loved it!) and I haven't watched many Cartoons since I was a kid, so I was just curious if Transformers: Rescue Bots is any good. From what it looks like, it's a younger child's show. Is this true? Should I just skip this cartoon?

No. Don't skip it. You'll miss out on a great cartoon.
Anyone who says this show compares to "Team Umizoomi" or "Wonder Pets" have obviously never watched it before. The rating is TV-Y7; so is Transformers: Prime (plus FV), and we know how dark that is. Rescue Bots isn't that dark, but it's not "ABC-123" kiddie either.
It may be aimed at younger kids (especially it's toyline), however it's enjoyable enough for adult fans to enjoy as well. Give it a chance, and ignore the haters.
Unless you end up hating it too, then you could probably join them.

Haha. Thank you for the info. I'll definitely watch it when I get some free time.

I like Rescue Bots better than I like TF: Prime.
Now, that's saying something about how good it is.
If you've read Exodus, wanna read the War For Cybertron comic? PM me.

Same here. I lost interest in Prime in the middle of season 1 (though I have seen most of the episodes from it and season 2 in bits and pieces/out of order etc., I just don't go out of my way to watch it, even on Netflix). I'm still waiting anxiously for new episodes of Rescue Bots.
I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I am that which is, which was, and is yet to come.
And you will know my name is MEGATRON when I lay my vengeance upon you!
