i want to see a war within cartoon! if there is one next year i will shit mah pants and eat crayons. but i want to see a new cartoon soon.

it seems odd they can pull out a new show so quickly after they decided to cancel animated. i know they could have had some early development before animated was canceled, which was still before any of season 3 even aired, but its still alot of work to cram into the time they have.
it would be what, 2 years at most if they release the new show next fall?

No. No, no, no, no. NO!

There are only so many times they can re-hash Blackarachnia. She was ok when she popped up in BW, then she sucked as a maximal. Then she sucked harder in BM, then inm Universe as a repaint she sucked, and then in Animated she's even worse. We don't need more of that b!+c#.

Here's the most logical conclusion. They are going to skip showing transformers for the first three episodes so they can get some backstory on the humans, then the robots show up suddenly. The main action focuses around the love lives of the teenage human characters and their struggle of trying to live normal lives with giant robots wandering around shooting stuff. in around episode 22 we discover the faction names. Episode 49 would be a two part episode to introduce optimus prime and maybe two or three other members of the autobots (bumblebee and wheelie). The Decepticons are introduced but the only one that matters is Megatron because all he has are solders and minor goons that hang around for an episode and then are just background props for the autobots to shoot at. The series will end with Optimus about to finish off Megatron (now FABULOUSLY painted purple and named Galvatron) and Optimus is cut-off mid sentance when the screen turns black.

I've also got a car for sale.

Not to nitpick, but all the report says is that there could be shows for these properties on the air. He didn't say these would be new shows.

It's entirely possible this just means that on their new channel they will reshow Animated and Sigma 6, or the Unicron trilogy with SpyTroops/VvV, until they a can start producing new items.

Seeing that at Botcon we saw a good chunk of the upcoming stuff, and Joecon showed stuff that isn't even expected until Q4 2010, would place new productions quite late in the year if we do get anything new in 2010.

(IMO here)
With the third TF movie already set, and with the delays to the animated line after the first, I can easily see Hasbro stretching NEST thru to mid 2010 and filling the 9 months after with a short Universe line before switching to TF3 in Q2 2011.

i'm surprised they never attempted a series based on the live action movies. at the very least that could signal Cullen's return to a TF tv series.

or instead of always creating new shows from scratch, do what they did with TMNT and He-Man, take the original show and just update/reboot it. again it could open the door for Cullen's return.

Please don't suck.

Hasbro could easily put classics/universe molds back into production to sell, and I would totally dig it.

Most likely thought, the channel will feature re-runs of G1, BW, RID, A/E/C and Animated at different times.

Exactly what I was thinking. Why do they keep starting from scratch with new versions of the concept. Do an updated G1 show, now that we've had 25 years to see what works and what doesn't, mythology wise, then put out Classic/Universe toys.

if they make it more darker and geared toward an older crowd then it will only be aired on adult swim late at night if it got aired at all and wont be very long lived.
either they continue with the animated series or maybe do one completely new
