  • This show had it's moments. It also had some pretty bad ones too.

  • @awsomeayodele think about the time "animated" came out...it was around the same time as the 2007 movie came out.

  • @Gunmetalhed Shut the fuck up. Derrick J. Wyatt(teen titans) animated this,and he's amazing

  • Why do they make all those 80s cartoon remakes look like a 6 yr old drew them?

  • I like the theme of Animated along with the series itself. I remember the anime of Transformers, but I re-watched Armada which is the one I remember when I was younger...not that good. Everyone has their opinion, but I acctually prefer the newest series Prime.

  • press 1 for plan b

  • how the fuq did i get here?

  • Great they stick to the original theme, wait no Peter Cullen...pass, jk look good.

  • ths singer voice is similar to the voice of the singer of the ofprings!!

  • Great tune!

  • I still say G1's episodes were better than ANIMATED's episodes.

    But ANIMATED had more emotion and excitement than G1's first 2 seasons.

  • Super Hero Robots!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • why the hell is it called animated if all the other transformers are animated

  • I've never been able to figure that out. Originally it was gonna be called Transformers Heroes but Hasbro had it changed.

  • say what you will but I actually liked this show and I'm one of those people who watched armada, bast wars, cybertron, and the other good transformers shows. though i didn't like how optimus' face looked

  • @dickson1o1 no hasbro owned by americans hired a American comic writer to make the transformers

  • @Gadjet567 For g1 they were Japanese artists, same with the unicron trilogy. After that they had American writers.

  • @zegamaster1 but they had american writers and the man who hd invented all the names and personalities had been an american

  • I could watch this all day! 8)

  • Honestly, this is THE best Transformers intro music. Say what you will about the show but this is just great.

  • Comment removed

  • This one (even with the weird Teen Titans style) was one of the best TF series ever, I watch Armada and Cybertron and I never like them, the only 2 Japanese TF series I like it were Masterforce and Victory, for me the best Transformers series are in this order now:

    1-G1 (No one beat to original)

    2-PRIME (This one really is catching the G1, well Cullen and Welker are BACK what else we can expect XD).

    3-BEST WARS (The one brings back TF from the land of the dead)

    4-ANIMATED

    My opinion any way.

  • I'd say that Beast Wars and Animated are leagues above G1.

    As for Prime, it's alright so far but nowhere near as good as Animated was. It feels much more lifeless.

  • Comment removed

  • This was nothing compared to the Transformers Unicron Trilogy....of course that could just be the nostalgia talking. I'll take TF Armada, Energon and Cybertron over this anyday. Seriously, did anyone die on this one?

  • @jucyma the japanese MADE transformers, once america touched the animation of it, they killed it.

  • @dickson1o1 what are you talking about the japanese messed up transformers with out it we will not have bay- formers. but some of it was good like animated a japanese version of the original

  • @CyberDebMarin but man, they literally created transformers. without them we dont have bay-formers

  • @jucyma Starscream, Blur and Prowl died

  • If you really wanna know whether anyone died in Animated

    *spoilers*

    Prowl dies, Optimus dies at one point, Starscream dies...multiple times, tons of bots are dead in flashbacks, Yoketron dies, and Blurr gets smashed to death onscreen.

    So yeah, some guys died in this show.

  • how come the Japanese version is better but this is still a awesome tune to jam to

  • To me this is as close tf g1 as we can get

  • lol bumblebee looks like a scion

  • If they just weren`t so ugly....

  • I never really got the chance to watch this on tv. I've been missing out.

  • top one of my most favorite openings! curse those who disliked this!!!

  • hey how come bumble can't talk in the other transformers but he can in this one

  • @artgonzgonzales Doesnt Bumblebee talk in everything except for the movies? Let me know if I am wrong.

  • @RazorDaveInc He talks through all of the different series with the exception of Transformers Prime and yeah the movies as well. Except the part in the end of the first movie where he does talk.

  • Guys. TFA fans. they are working on season 3. this show is not ovah!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @Regularshowandlegos More then meets the eye. :O

  • @Regularshowandlegos More then meets the eye. :O

  • This show used to come one every weekend at 6:00 am. Miss this epic show a lot

  • You know allot of people don't like animated, because the Autobot's are Darker. I disagree, because I personally like how it's brought to our attention that there's really no such thing as a perfect system. shown that The autobot side is, at best terms Racist. the ranking system is almost impossible to get through, and there are millions of labor bot's without names. That's why although I personally think Optimus should Stay on earth, he'd make a great Magnus. Because he'd try to change it all.

  • good lord they butchered bumble bee

  • ahemm.... Its Transformers "ANIMATED"...... its supposed to look like that.....

  • okay transformers G1 was not that good to begin with i actually luv this show it tops g1 and every other single transformers show ever except beast wars it's almost close to beast wars but not that quality yet sry transformers prime l luv you but animated is still better than you my only major complaints are mr.powell

    and sentinel prime they need to die ! NOW !

  • @darthvenom30567 Go take a penis and shove it up your ass.

  • @TheHappyLittleKitten why ? just for expressing my own opinion ? soo i like beast wars and transformers animated better than any other transformers continuity ? is there problem with that ? and please respond with sumthing mature not sum bullshit insult

  • I WANT DEVASTATOR dammit cartoon network and hasbro renew this for a season 4 i beg you ! do it now !

  • Transformers Animated FTW ! this show is EPIC !

  • here's all i can say- making a movie about a long-dead tv phenomenon is one thing, but making a whole new series- that is a whole nother case

  • @ DarthStarscream1138 You can go to hell!!! Transformers Armada is the best series period!!! The second best is Cybertron. All the other shows all suck(G1 sucked compared to Armada). Beast Wars/machines is a total disgrace to all transformers and anyone who likes that shit is a complete moron!

  • @calleyne90 wow really cos i hated the unicron trilogy and luved every other transformers series yes even beast machines i won't call you any names cos it's all opinion hell i'd even like the bay movies except revenge of the fallen that sucked BIG TIME ! p.s tf:animated is still the best transformers show since beast wars !!!!

  • Armada was just the best of the animes. It was in no way the best of the shows.

  • @edward18517 You must be smoking some real good stuff.

  • I don't smoke

  • @edward18517 You must be smoking if you think Armada is best! The originals were better Transformers. Season1 was good but as the seasons progressed it got better. When the story left earth and went to Cybertron and all through out space and added all those other transformers ex. Insect-a-cons, Junk-a-cons, ten-ta-cons the ones with 4 faces and Rotamus prime vs Galvatron and the first female bot Liter1 ect. Season 1-4 of the original was the better series of the TRANSFORMER anime!

  • um...

    1. I said best ANIME. RID, Armada, Energon, and Cybertron are the Transformer animes. G1 is a cartoon.

    2. G1 is boring as hell compared to things like Animated and Beast Wars most the time.

  • ahh yes the college

  • This theme song copied Transformers R.I.D theme song

  • @CruzPokemonFan123 Are you serious? lol This song was first used in the G1 cartoon

  • @TheCaptain097 What! this theme song wasnt used in the G1 cartoon as intro!

    Check it up! But the lyrics were used in almost every transformers show!

  • @TheEthernal These lyrics are in every transformers theme aside from the beast wars and machines. Without them, it's just not the same. This is the way they keep the tradition alive.

  • i think this was my least favorite transformers series. didnt really like the art style it kinda reminded me of how teen titans looked and it didnt last very long. after the that girl turned out to be a robot the show kinda dissapeared. ARMADA FOREVER!!!!!

  • @AnthonyTheAwesome500 I'm the opposite. I think TFA is awesome and Armada SUCKS!

  • @DarthStarscream1138 we all have our own opinions. i just didnt like this series. but hey thats just me. it didnt hold my attention.

  • Transformers FTW!

    Every single Transformers series is EPIC!

  • @crazyondaime You, my good friend, are a genius.

    Can't we all just agree that Transformers IN GENERAL kicks ass?

  • This show would of been cool IF it didn't have theese things:

    1. That annoying ass little girl

    2. Have the Decepticons be the only villians, the autobots always have fought ONLY the decepticons not super villians they are not Super heros IMO

    3. Bulkhead...that fatass was stupid

  • @ShowMe160

    - Just an fyi, both the original Transformer G1 as well as the Bay movies has that annoying ass little boy, moreso in the bay movies.

    - imo, this show became awesome once the climax of season 1 with the awesome title: Megatron Rising. Starting from that episode, they tend to battle the Decepticon more.

  • @ShowMe160

    1. Can't argue on that ;)

    2. Just becuase they fought Decepticons before dosen't mean they have to do it in every cartoon, every video game and every god damm comic. I'm glad they bought something different.

    3. Being Autobot dosen't mean all of them are wise and cool looking like Optimus Prime.

  • @ShowMe160

    I don't see why bulkhead, and Sari are so bad.... I think they're just fine.....

    I'm sorry if i sound mean... im not trying

  • characters in this show didnt look like machines compared to the old one

  • This show is EPIC! :D

  • To anyone sitting on the fence, I'd say give this show a try. It has a nice storyline, great characterization, lots of funny as well as serious moments, and many fun references. And if you're not used to the art style, don't worry, it grows on you!

    All in all, I was pretty impressed by this series, and will definitely check out some G1 episodes next for some good old 80's vibes!

  • I dislike the art direction of this series, reminds me of that crappy Ben-10 show. Of course this is just my oppinion and I respect the fact that others may enjoy this style.

  • @BandakaKush I agree, the art style is a bit hard to watch, but after a while you forget about it because the story is great. But Ben 10? it looks more like Teen Titans to me.

  • most of the transformers in this series had jay leno shaped chins, but i did like bulk hes neat :)

  • press 5 then press 8 for "The evil forces of--TRANSFORMERS!"

  • Gotta love O. Prime and Bumblebee!

  • this opening is my favorite transformers intro. And when prowl shows up the music is Kick Ass.

  • creator of this probably calls himself the GAY-MASTER 2000

  • @thrallskull No that's Starscream. the creator of this probably calls himself the AWESUM SERIES-MAKER-9000

  • i gotta say,the first thing i love about this series is the theme song,it just AWESOME!

  • @eclipse8120 yeah thats horse shit

  • Really nice version of original theme. However there are much better series than this.

  • ...Armada owns. :(

  • ..... It's not even a challenge the japanese opening beats this hands down.

  • I like this, not as good as the G1 but that's cos I was from G1 era, but this is damn good for kids to have as an alternative to Michael Bay

  • 0:09 - 0:11 yeah thats real cool. you fucking idiots.

  • @Rampagelil whats wrong with the rest of it?

  • @spidermansidekick1 Are you blind? they all look like porly drawn monkeys

  • @Rampagelil but the story is really good.

  • @Rampagelil Not actually. They look like rejected designs from Gurren Lagann.

  • @SMAXZO Though that does not make it bad.

  • @Rampagelil  ARE YOU BLIND? THE TRANSFORMERS IN THIS SERIES LOOK LIKE ACTUAL TRANSFORMERS, WHILE(in my opinion)THE ONES IN TRANSFORMERS:ENERGON,ARMADA LOOK LIKE POORLY DRAWN MONKEY(in my opinion) :) have a nice day.......

  • @delta38vader These look horrible and goofy they look like fun school toys and yes all of those looked like shit too

  • @delta38vader Uh, no. Too liquid, non-solid. Too many god damn pointy chins, and you make Optimus Prime look like a fucking pussy, and you make Ratchet look like a god damn senior citizen.

  • @TheHappyLittleKitten i agree with you on that.(except for the big chin stuff,although sentinel has a HUGE chin,bu this was for kids.)i think this show as cool,both opinions are different.

  • The Japanese Dub renamed Bulkhead to Ironhide.

  • Only complaint with this series is that they failed to wrap everything up by the end of season 3. Aside from that, I have to put this series up there as one of the greatest Transformers cartoons of all time. And G-whiners, Shut up. You don't have to moan and whine about everything that isn't G1, it just gets annoying after a while.

  • they had another season planned, but they got canceled. Sari would have been on Cybertron with Bulkhead who would go back to his home town where Megatron was going to be executed (but he'd obviously escape). Sentinel would become the new leader after Magnus was going to go offline. Sari would learn in full what her actual origins were. Prowl's ghost would occasionally appear.

  • this series made prowl look like a faggot, and ratchet a pedophile wtf stop fucking with the transformers and leave them alone hasbro

  • @minigun20 G-whiner.

  • how was Prowl a faggot or Ratchet a pedophile?

  • I just watched the japanese intro for this... sorry but i still like what the US does for the series than what the japanese do... over exaggerated.. this one is short to the point and totally awesome.

  • I was a bit dubious about this series cause of its looks mainly (im superficial I know)

    But I must say it grew on me and its was fun to see an inexperienced Optimus maturing into an Autobot Leader

  • Beast Wars and Animated have the best storylines in the Transformers series.

  • the theme should have been in the 2007 movie, it fits that

  • @piccolo56000 hell yea

  • oh, guess it's just what you think. I personally think it looks much better than the older stuff like G1 art-wise. The characters in Animated feel much more alive than in many of the other series.

  • How is Animated childish?

  • Japan's intro is like 50 times better. I don't know what they at saying but the music and the look makes it epic you have to watch it

  • I take a remix of the original Transformers theme myself over a new Japanese one.

  • Todays Cartoons always look that f***ing bad, lame, and have this strange action-overflow that kicks my nerves. Hate it

  • I only wished there was a Season 4... I want to see Galvatron.

  • @MegamanNG hey me too i luved this show i also wanted an animated version of devastator and i wanted sentinel to die in that show !!! FUCK HIM !!!! sry it's just that i really really hated sentinel prick ...uhh i mean prime !

  • @darthvenom30567 I want to see Sentinel get stripped of his rank after Lockdown reveals the big secret why Optimus was framed. Realizing this, Sentinel loses everything until he joins Galvatron's Emperium. With the threat of Galvatron, Megatron and his loyal followers have no choice but to join forces with the Autobots. And once Galvatron is defeated somewhat, then a new threat emerges... Unicron.

  • @MegamanNG but wait i thought galvatron is megatron wait having them be 2 seperate charaters ? that's actually not a bad idea yeah you can have them go at it ! it would be the shit ! and also somewhat bring starscream and prowl back to life no i don't care how i want them alive dammit

  • @darthvenom30567 Megs and Galvatron being 2 separate characters is what I always had in mind. And maybe bring Starscream and Prowl back. Prowl to help his comrades once more and Starscream to at least show his true loyalty.

  • @darthvenom30567 : How about Galvatron is sort of Megatron but isn't. When the Allspark fragment that kept starscream alive was remerged with the allspark, the rebuilt allspark became corrupted by starscreams essence, the essence of prowl was the only thing that kept starscream from taking control of the allspark completely. Later Starscream was purged from the allspark was reborn as an indestructible disembodied spark that end up wandering the universe

  • @RocketHarry865 : After some time starscream's spark encountered Unicron. Starscream was given an offer of in enchange for servitude, starscream would be given a new body and the leadership of the decepticons, starscream eagerly accepted. Unicron then sent his heralds Cyclonus, Scourge, Sideways and a newly converted Sunstorm (the orange Sycophant Starscream clone) to Cyberton and cause a riot in the Jails, killing Megatron and taking Megatron's body to unicron where Unicron used it to create

  • @RocketHarry865 the new body for starscream. Then starscream takes the body and rename himself Galvatron. He then claims that he was a reborn Megatron gaining the loyalty of almost every decepitcon include Lugnut. However it turns out Megatron did not really die and Megatron' essence while dormant was trying to take control of the body from Starscream, causing Galvatron eventually go insane

  • @RocketHarry865 yeah that sounds cool sry haven't replyed to you on a week ! LOL that's becos i keep getting reply to other comments and did'nt see urs have a good day !

  • @ilovecattys...have /you/ seen G1? Sorry dude, G1 was awful. The only thing G1 did that was any good was establish the mythos and a good chunk of characters, but it was all in the name of selling toys. Not to mention THERE WAS NO STORYLINE. Single episodes had a hard enough time keeping their own story straight, let alone the entire series. You either haven't actually seen G1, or you saw a few episodes back when you were a kid, because if you tried to watch it now, you'd never defend it.

  • Whoever said this had a good storyline must be smoking crack. The autobots are reduced to PLANET CLEANERS? I mean come on if you think this is good you havent seen G1...or any of the other series's...even beast wars sucked but it wasnt as bad as this shit. G1 forever; Sari was the most annoying. Oh ho ho she is actually half ROBOT? Wow what a twist,,,making her useless and some sort of deformity as well. I'll give it to them though it has one of the best sounding intros.

  • G1's story is crap compared to Animated's ilovecattys

    And Sari was one of the best human sidekicks yet

  • @edward18517

    ...Yep yup basing off those STUPID COMICS it was made of is a dumb story! Animated the autobots are now cleaners of planets and complete pussies and the deceptions are too and their cartoons look like deformed mutants. And sari is a retarded moron.

  • ....what the hell are you talking about? Autobots are not cleaners, it's just Optimus Prime's group. If you actually bothered to watch the show you'd know how the main characters ended up in their situation. Also, the Decepticons are definately not pussies. They even have the human villains to make the Decepticons look even more threatening than the past series have had them being. Shockwave smashes Blurr to death, Megatron nearly annihilates Detroit. Starscream can take on numerous bots himself

  • And I highly doubt Sari's a moron since she has the ability to hack into machinery and instantly know everything about them as well as the fact that she's been taught by robots all her life.

  • @ilovecattys pfft geewuner

  • Thumbs up if you think this is better than the movies.

  • @FanRetroCartoon No, F that. That's a cheap way to get thumbs up.

    By the way, AWESOME intro.

  • lol

  • I don't like animated because the voices are just terrible,all the characters are ugly,3 year old show.

  • @Some340Guy well tell me have you ever watched an episode cause 9-10 you din't and your just some butt hurt fanboy crying about how the charaters dont look the same as your precious G1.

  • In shows for 3-year-olds characters don't get smashed to death.

  • ^_^

  • they made a mockery of ironhide

  • @egone123 - haha, to be honest I think the point of Ironhide in Animated was to parody him. He has a really sharp twang in G1. As it is, you almost never see Ironhide, which furthers my thought that it was a parody of some sort

  • Love the series, a nice new one but for the older ones among us it is a bit on the level of Teen Titans.

  • if u watch the last episode of TFA you'll watch TFA all over again

  • The same songs as in TF Robots In Disguise /// I like the motorcycle the most

  • Having watched this entire series on its first run, it wasn't as horrible as it could have been. It had way more flaws than Beast Wars, true, but it wasn't entirely awful. And Sari was far more tolerable than those kids from Cybertron.

  • @TheHelldragon jesus all im saying is i hate the show. But if you really care about what I think go blab to your mom

  • @Some340Guy Just expressin' an opinion, man. Roll with it how you like.

  • @TheHelldragon At least she was useful, that and I was amazed how Hasbro kept her being techno-organic mystery secret for the first two seasons of the show and then revealing it in season 3.

  • @TheHelldragon

    Kicker.

    Anything, and I mean anything was an improvement on him

  • I can't believe it's only 29 seconds!!! Guys, you better not be fighting!! Hasbro and other TV show companies STOP shows to make room for MORE shows. Memories are all that we have left.

  • muito massa essa entrada cara! ela passa no Cartoon Network

  • Forgetting the ignorance of one, I personally found Animated to be a great new take on the franchise, very interesting with a decent plot behind it and easily the best thing since good ol' Beast Wars. The style may be to...well...no one's taste, but it's a welcome break from all this anime bull.

  • i wish they added primus and unicron in this series........ and not make starscream look/sound like hes on crack

  • blame it on Hasbro, they called for the series to just suddenly stop for some reason just like they did with Beast Wars and various other shows in the franchise. But other than Unicron being absent I felt this got a ton of things right that haven't been right in a long time in the franchise.

  • Horrible, absolutely horrible, long life the Unicron Trilogy. ( Armada to Cybertron for those unaware )

  • ...I hope you realize that everything in the "Unicron Trilogy" after Armada is pretty much crap.

  • That is called your opinion, which I happen to not agree with, THIS, what you see above, is true crap.

  • it has a way better story than any of the Unicron trilogy did.

  • Once again, I disagree, because once again, you did not in any way state a fact, just your opinion.

    The only way I'll ever watch this, is if they remake it in the style of Armada or Energon, not Cybertron, they went way to far with the 3d thing in Cybertron.

  • why do you continually state that what I say is an opinion when I don't state that what you say about this series is an opinion?

  • Lol. You refuse to watch something because of the way it's drawn. FAIL.

  • Why should I watch something that I find godawfully drawn?

  • So you haven't watched it then? And yet you're calling it crap. So ignorant and pathetic...

  • cause it's part of a franchise you like...

  • I like, as in, am a true fan of, only 2 franchises, Dragonball and Sailor Moon, Transformers Armada and Energon are simply shows I watch when I have nothing else to watch, although off course I do enjoy watching them.

  • Wow... all I have to say NitroX, just wow. So, do you watch cartoons at all these days? You want to know BS art? Look at Chower and Mighty B. I personally find nothing wrong with TFA's art style. I think most people freak out with it because it's not G1-esqe. Well I find that a good thing. I'm sick of seeing the same basic character designs (a box on top of a box on top of rectangles for legs) for the franchise and I am a major fan of TF. It was so relieving to see a new take on design

  • @erailea The thing I really love about this series is how it was able to have a very nice and well written story. That and it had characters with surprisingly dark pasts.

  • @erailea i respect that you like the new design but they just dont look like transformers should look like. i kno u dont want a box on top of another but that is a transformer n the way that they tweek the boxes makes transformers all that more special e.g. look at all the other transformers in prev series' they are hardly just boxes

  • @erailea chowder is good but yeah mighty bee sucks nothing about is good so I almost totally agree with you

  • the style touch a lot of people. (especially Gwhiners and their pwecious childhood)

    the story didnt pick up until season 2 but it delivered.

    there were so many references and homages that only long time TF fans could pick up.

    did anyone notice how pissed Ratchet was when he confronted Lockdown? by the way today's wussy standard to 'pwotect the children', im surprise they got away with that.

  • Yes, style comes off irrelevant if the action and the story is delivered correctly which is this case and of course spectacular's case, probably the two best shows in their moments sad to know this one's gone and spectacular may be gone as well

  • from a loyal original transformers fan and beast wars fan. this is bullshit!!!! how dare they dig up the good footage for this shit!

    lame

  • ...how is this bad? It's the best thing since Beast Wars.

  • i actually beg to differ. the story may be wicked. (i wouldnt know) but the animation is cheap imo.
