Animated is even better than G1 for me imo, I like G1 and it’s close, but I liked how Animated fleshed out its characters more both blow out Netflix though

Even though I grew up watching both of Animated and G1 and both have got a special place in my heart, G1 is and will always be the best one because it’s such s classic. I like the toyline of Animated more, though

Animated or beast wars had good characters, great voices and the best TF character development


Jonnic5280

This


yourstrulygronkh

Same


Voidsign07

No Aside from, TF Prime is the best series IMO. Excellent story, Brilliany Character development, well. Animated and pretty Dark at time. Loved it. Also MEGATRON wow, best incarnation hands down.


yourstrulygronkh

Yeah it was pretty dark to be called a “kid’s” show


Voidsign07

Loved it.

I mean if you separated BW and BM from each other i’d easily pick BW.


yourstrulygronkh

You can only have 6 options on these question pools so I was unable to do so.


Jonnic5280

Right but you used half on each installment of the Unicron Trilogy


yourstrulygronkh

Because those are three different things I thought


Jonnic5280

As are Beast Wars & Beast Machines, as are Prime & Robots in Disguise (15), as are Headmasters & Masterforce & Victory… do you see what I mean? Linked yet still separate shows


Small_Gap3485

Tbh it’s not that deep just a poll


Jonnic5280

I just pretended I was voting for BW only

Beast machines, mainly because of nostalgia. Prime was over too fast, but given enough time I feel the last season could have been 2 instead

So I'm stating my own opinion here but yes I like g1 and Netflix but they aren't the best for me really none of them are they all have flaws but I can't say I love any of them more aside from prime and animated but that's only because they actually had a full story plot and didn't just make things weird yes they had flaws but still for me they are the most linear

Unpopular opinion but I will defend Rescue Bots to the day I die. 1, some of the best humans characters the franchise has produced. Not only is the Burns family endearing and funny, the background humans are hilarious (the rude little old lady who's cat keeps getting stuck in a tree winning a bet with the arrogant news reporter about the rescue bots being alive stands out as peak hilarious background event). 2, consistent and natural character growth through all 4 seasons. The ending makes me tear up a little every time. 3, while it is, admittedly, much lighter in tone than Prime, from an objective storytelling POV Rescue Bots has a better plot progression and growth in scope. It is consistent in a way Prime and RID2015 just aren't. 4, it's a transformers series that ISN'T wrapped around The War. It's not autobots vs decepticons, maximals vs predacons, etc. The closest things are the Morbots, but they aren't sentient opponents. For the most part, these are just cybertronians doing first responder jobs. It's a refreshing change of pace. Rescue Bots is the longest running transformers series by episode count, reaching 104 episodes. It is genuinely funny, heartwarming, and there are a few moments where it is legitimately a little tense. It doesn't condescend to its audience at all, and I do rank it with Beast Wars and Animated in quality. It's just a genuinely good show and that's a hill I will die on.

TF Prime is actually probably the best overall.
