I really like Transformers, a lot! I was there at the dawn of the G1 Series, and have seen almost every other (Japanese) Transformer series that followed, including the very bad attempts at adapting a few of these series for the U.S. Though none of these series were on par with even the slowest/silliest G1 Episodes! Beast Wars, & Transformers: Armada were fun, for the most part and had some of the "spirit" of the G1 series, but weren't quite there. Now we have the newest series: Transformers Animated. I saw some of the early designs for the "new" versions of the classic characters at the San Diego ComicCon a few years ago, and thought that they might be a little too cartoony, but they still looked kind of cool. Although, I still cannot stand Optimus Prime with a mouth!!! Anyway, I started watching this series with my nephews, and found myself really enjoying the stories (simple as they are), and the animation as well. The first season is good, and the second season is a bit better. So, if you haven't watched any of this series, please give it a try. You might enjoy it more than you think you would!

TF Animated season 2 was one of the best seasons of any Transformers cartoon I have seen in a while. There are a lot of G1 cameos in this season, as well as all around great stories and artwork. Your going to be pleasantly surprised at the familiar faces that pop up and the season finale will get your heart beating.

As with the first season, not too much fancy stuff were put onto the disc.

I didn't include any episode summaries, in case you did not watch part of the season yet and would like to be surprised. Make sure to pick up "Transform and Roll Out DVD", and "Season One Box Set" to complete both seasons.

I'm an old school G1 fan who had almost everything Transformers growing up, and I absolutely love this series. Great for both children new to Transformers, as well as adults who will appreciate all the thought put into the series for older fans.

I highly recommend it!

I can't tell you just how fun it was to share my cartoons with my 9 year old son.

this is a great show. some what like the G1 transformers . I just hope that they would make the 3RD season soon.

The first season annoyed due to the human enemies and not enough robot action. The second season introduces the Elite Guard, which is pretty awesome in itself. There is even an episode that develops Bumblebee's and Bulkhead's background, which I thought was nice.

The characters all have personality, whether Autobot, Decepticon, or human. This series has action, comedy, and some drama.
I do not wish to spoil anything, but this series is a great series and keeps improving as it goes along. (The third season has also started, so do not miss it!)

TFA has been a shining light in the franchise's animated continuties. It's ability to tell individual stories in an episode admists season arching storielines where the good guys manage to come out on top yet still portray the villians as near-insurmountable threats takes skill.

I have been a Transformers fan for many years. However, when I first saw promos for this series, I was a little skeptical. The animation made it look like it would be a goofy kids series. Boy, was I wrong. This series has plenty of action which reminds me of the original 1980s Tranformers series. Thank you for sending this out to me.

Hi,
The new Transformers has come out it started today with a 1 1/2 hour show like it did when it first came out. do hope that this one comes out on DVD soon as well.

Great cartoon for kids and adults that remember the old Transformers, great remake of an old classic.

The episodes are OK at best. I compare them to the first the first two seasons of the SIMPSONS; Homer has the "different" voice and Bart is the main character. Here, Optimus Prime sounds "funny," Megatron does not look the same, Starscream is nowhere and they all work with and fight with humans. I know the later seasons will be much better.
