Transfomres Prime Moving to Saturday Time Slot

Weapon: Gattling Gun
It looks like Transformers Prime will be heading to a new Saturday time slot starting this week. Nick and More! is reporting the following:

The Hub is moving premiere episodes of Transformers Prime, G.I. Joe Renegades and Hubworld to Saturdays, instead of their previous Friday premiere timeslots.

Hubworld will air new episodes on Saturdays at 4 p.m. ET starting April 9. Transformers Prime will have premiere episodes on Saturdays at 7 p.m. ET starting April 9 as well. G.I. Joe Renegades will return with premieres on Saturdays at 7:30 p.m. ET starting April 16.


HubWorld's TV Schedule seems to agree.

Yeah, but I like being able to catch it when it airs. And if I have to resort to catching it on the DVR, it's usually not that long after its initial airing. But now, I'm gonna have to wait until after midnight before I can catch it. :-(

Besides, those who don't have th channel can always get the HD version of it from iTunes (which is a lot higher quality than the televised version). :roll:

I hear ya. If it were Saturday morning I'd have no problem (since I don't work Saturday mornings). But, I guess something like TF: Prime is too dark for the SatAM (no not Sonic) timeslot. :roll:

Transformers freaking Animated was dark as crap in season 3! And that still aired in the morning. Plus the only episodes of Prime that were dark, at all where the first 2 episodes. The rest are the episodes are NOTHING compared to any of the episodes in Animated season 3. Even most of the episodes in Season 1 and 2 where dark in Animated, that didn't stop it from coming on in the morning! :BANG_HEAD: :BANG_HEAD: :BANG_HEAD:

"Three's A Crowd" and both "Human Error" episodes were kinda light-hearted and funny.

Still, though, when I said "dark", I meant atmospheric-wise. While Animated season 3 was indeed dark at times, it still had that air of light fun and humble friendliness that made that series both charming and cool. Prime however tends to be all SrsBsns, like it can't ever just kick back and relax for once in a while. Sure, it does have its few easygoing moments, but it mostly wears a mature facade that doesn't appeal to the SatAM (again, not referring to Sonic) little kids crowd as much.

In fact, I've yet to encounter a single young kid who's a TF fan that has also found Prime to be all that enjoyable.

Again, I like tuning in at the scheduled time. When not working, it's not like I have anything else better to be doing at the time. :roll:

Plus, once it airs, that's when all the episode discussions commence. I really like those too and don't like to miss out/catch up on reading them.
