You people can't seriously be happy about that advertising stunt...seriously? I watched a little bit of it and saw so many damn transformers things it was ridiculous. The whole thing was one transformer commercial...in a very bad way. Then it wins the new made up award...come on. That was ridiculous. Whatever happened to selling your product based on quality not the number of times someone is exposed to it? The good old days. I am saying this as a huge Transformers fan.

Wow. You're a hypocrite. How is a couple hour long show that promotes the upcoming movie any different from the subpar cartoons that promote the toylines? Simple answer is there is no difference.

There were alot of Transformers things. Even when the nominations for other catagories were shown, a transforming style sound accompanied T.V.s changing, or Transforming, into the next clip. Coincidence? Only if it were not Transformers would I think that it might have been a coincidence.

Well, one difference is that the cartoons don't masquerade as an awards show for a year's worth of other cartoons.

I'm a fan of Potter but I would have still picked Transformers, just because......well, its Transformers.

Maybe it's just the pessimist in me but man ... after working in radio at Clear Channel Broadcasting for a little over two years you learn how rigged all of the radio contests are even though it's supposed to be "random winners". My bullshit alert went off as soon as I heard that Transformers had been nominated for this award. Not that I don't mind Transformers getting this kind of exposure ... I think it's awesome and I'm thrilled that it won. I just think it's rigged is all

Wouldn't know. Wouldn't care as long as Transformers won anyway.

My vote for the HOF goes to my favorite Transformer, Kup, to the Headmasters (who still need new figures that aren't just the characters without their master components) and to seibertron.com for for being the ultimate TF resource.
