That's why there still is internet where you can just watch all of that for free...I never understood why people would be like "well I can't watch my show cause it's not on netfilx" when everything is a click away. A bunch of slaves to neflix that's it.

...Because some people don't want to illegally download children's cartoons, of all things? This is why I dislike internet pirates. They're all obnoxiously entitled.

You've missed my point (though I might not have been clear). I will only buy shows on physical media, and don't get the appeal of streaming services at all.

The appeal of streaming is that it's like watching TV but at anytime you want, any show/movie you want (if available), doesn't take up space on your DVR, and doesn't sit around collecting dust on your DVD shelf.

And if you don't like the program you streamed, you don't have to deal with it any longer, unlike a DVD you buy that turns out to be boring, lame, etc.

"We're committed to ensuring that ppl can access our shows anytime & anywhere. We're hopeful we can continue to offer them on Netflix in U.S." aka Netflix wouldn't pay us the additional amount we feel we deserve, so we said "Screw your fans then."

Perhaps, but I can rip my DVDs and put them on my tablet. Also, DVDs don't stop working just because the licensor or licensee gets into a snit.

Gonna second physical media being preferable. Another plus to physical media is that it doesn't need to buffer/decline in quality if bandwith or some other internet lingo goes down. And you can actually let someone borrow it too. Oh yeah, collecting movies and TV shows is fun!

However, I occasionally stream stuff, and unfortunately not everything is available on physical media.

As we reported earlier this year, Hasbro and Netflix were unable to come to an agreement and all Hasbro shows were disappearing from Netflix's streams. We have the fantastic news that Hasbro and Netflix have struck up a deal and all Hasbro shows are staying on Netflix!

You can check out the good news on Twitter, by clicking below:

The new deal and it's details have not been released at this time, but it's good news for everyone as there's something for every generation of Transfan.

After you're done binge watching and having a marathon of great classic and new shows such as Transformers Prime, My Little Pony and Jem, come on back to the forums and chat about it!

Keep your optics tuned to Seibertron.com for the latest in news and updates, plus the best galleries around!

This is great! I just got into Transformers:Prime and because I don't have cable all I can find are vhs quality video rips to watch.

News Credits: 10 · Fri Mar 20, 2015 6:57 pm

Awesome news. I (like any die hard fan, have these on DVD, VHS or whatever, but Netflix makes it much more convenient to watch. I have missed Transformers and G.I. Joe the couple months they've been off the service.

Late night TFs are back!

yes now since it might be returning since my UT senses have been tingling for some delicious animation errors and badly timed dialog from Ironhide 8-}

I wonder if Hasbro realized CN is going to **** them over, and they need to start buttering up Netflix...

News Credits: 273 · Sat Mar 21, 2015 12:53 am

This is wonderful news. The more people that have easy access to these shows, the better.

Sat Mar 21, 2015 1:56 am

Cool, but does this mean that the other Hasbro shows that were taken off a few months ago, like Beast Wars and the G.I. Joe shows will be put back? Or was it just the shows that were supposed to be leaving this week that will be staying?

Glad to see they are coming back to Netflix.

Sun Mar 22, 2015 10:12 am

Yay! I didn't really like using Tubi TV anyways.

Mon Mar 23, 2015 9:40 am

Anybody see any word about G1 and GiJoe ARAH returning?

The Tubi TV app on Android is horrible, it doesn't have access to the full/same catalog of shows that the website does, and it crashes constantly just trying to browse anything.

We had reported earlier that Hasbro came to an agreement with Netflix and that their shows would eventually be possible to view. Well, the one and only Jon Bailey has confirmed to us that Rescue Bots seasons 1-3 are now available on Netflix, which is great news to us fans!

How far into season 3 is Netflix?

They have 14 episodes under season 3, including the missing season 2 episode, Riders of Midwinter. They are still missing Chief Woodrow though.

They really need to fix that, or else they're gonna wind up with having season 3 listed with more than 26 episodes.

How are the episode listings for seasons 1 and 2? Are "Walk on the Wild Side", "A Virtual Disaster", and "Spellbound" in their proper placements or in broadcast order?
