Sabrblade wrote:The G1 cartoon is pretty much an average show. It stands probably right in the middle as far as good and bad TF shows go. It has its moments of greatness, as well as its moments of fail. It's far from perfect, but it was great for its time.
for me, it was easier to take in the G1 cartoon since I watched it when it came on DVD in 6th grade (I too am a child of the 90s), which was a time when I had lower standards and could genuinely appreciate things more easily than I can now (having an adult mind, I can spot quality and no quality much better now).
I myself have taken to reading the Marvel G1 comics for the first time right now, and they're also quite "80's". There are good points and bad points to it, but even among some of the stinkers there are hidden gems to be found. The UK comics are, thus far, above average compared to most of the U.S. comics (the best U.S. comics were the earlier issues) and have a real "epic" feel to many of them.
Though, you say that you're on "episode 42" of season 2. Well, what order are you watching these episodes in, since there have been MANY different episode orderings of the G1 cartoon episodes?
Ah, production order, then.BeastProwl wrote:uummm..Im watching them in the order their posted, by an episode guide, located here: http://www.ntfa.net/ntfa/g1/eplist.php
The only episode out of place was "The golden Lagoon" And it was switched with another on the list. But, both the episodes have no REAL significance to some greater plot point, so it didn't matter much.

Though, there are some problems that arise from watching them in this order (as well as broadcast order and any DVD order) for a select few episodes. A few examples include:Season 3 is a whole mess of these kinds of problems with its episode order. Here's some pointers regarding its episodes:
- "The Gambler" must be watched right after "Child's Play", since it follows up immediately after it.
- "Aerial Assault" should be watched between "The Revenge of Bruticus" and "B.O.T.", rather than way before it, as it does not fit anywhere else.
- The episodes "Thief in the Night", Starscream's Ghost", and "Ghost in the Machine" must be watched in that exact order for them to make the most sense.
- The episode "Fight or Flee" must also be watched at some point before "Starscream's Ghost", so likely even before "Thief in the Night"
- The episodes "The Big Broadcast of 2006" and "The Quintesson Journal" must be watched together in that order.
- The episode "Dark Awakening" has two different endings. One ending enables the episode to take place at any point within the middle of the season, while the second ending requires that it take place much later toward the end of the season immediately before "The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1". I strongly urge that, if you choose to view "Dark Awakening" during its typical mid-season placement, that you view it with the first ending. And then once you get closer to the two-part finale, directly before you watch "The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1", re-watch "Dark Awakening" (or at least its last few moments) with the second ending.

And yet, aside from a few poor episodes, the writing of season 3 was overall improved from previous seasons.RhA wrote:I'm also very entertained by the idea that you have yet to encounter the horrid piece of donkeypl*p that is studio AKOM's animation. Just watch the first five episodes of season 3. Count the mistakes. I dare you.
