So, Channel 10 here in Australia have the rights for the free-to-air airing of TF: Animated. Lo and behold, I get up this morning and flick on the TV and it's the first episode of season 3! AWESOME! I think to myself! Transwarped Part 1! There is NO way that this could suck in any way shape or form!

Oh how freakin' wrong I could be!!

Channel 10 have taken it upon themselves to CUT each episode in half! So, instead of getting one episode each saturday we now only get half an episode each saturday! WTF!!!! EPIC FAIL!!!! You know what we get instead of good quality TF fun? A *#$%ING extended segment of host W@NKERS pouring mashed up something or others down their pants or drinking god knows what for cheap #$%*ING LAUGHS!!!

NOT! #$%*ING HAPPY CHANNEL 10!!!!

Hasbro AU have stated that CN won't be showing season 3 until our Spring... why the hell has CN let Channel 10 air the series first???

As Burn said, Channel 10 has been butchering Transformers since RID, where they stopped airing the series about 10 episodes from the end. I believe they also managed to butcher parts of the "G2" cartoon as well when they ran that in the mid 90's.

Nothing beats them cutting a 20 minute episode into a 15 minute episode, not cutting stock footage or anything minor, just randomly removing random scenes. To top that during Cybertron, they regularly repeated the same 5 minute segment twice, meaning an entire half an episode was missing...

I hate how they advertise that they now have 3 hours of 'toons on Saturday mornings. They have the same damn amount as they cram into a 1 and a half hour show, now they just have more damn filler. I hope the annoying blond hosts go away and die somewhere, I hope that the hosting segments are cut out completely, and I hope that one day channel 10 will have someone decent doing the programming. Until that day, til all are one...
