Janice Anderson asks: My four-year-old Transformers Prime superfan, Jackson, would love to know when Season 2 will begin!

Jeff Kline: No specific date yet, but keep an eye out for more news soon. We do know it will be "early 2012." I’m hoping that means late January or early February, but the truth is that the folks making the series are often so narrow-focused—with nearly an entire season in various stages of production simultaneously—that we tend to not be as up-to-speed on scheduling or promotional agendas as you might think!

Now read that part again.

As such, I don't think we can say the push-back has been [i]confirmed,[i] per se

I think it's completely possible that someone decided to air a few episodes early and didn't tell Jeff Kline about it, because the first few episodes of Season 2 had been finished or nearly finished by that time, and scheduling is, as Mr. Kline has stated, not his job. On the other hand, until a teaser image or episode summary crops up, I'm going to be ready to sit back and wait. I'm just pointing out that the man himself SPECIFICALLY SAID that he doesn't always have the most up-to-date information in this area, and there's still an outside chance he may simply not have been told of a change in plans.
