    I've said it before, but Sari minus "Mary Sue" equals Miko.

    Kaijuguy, can you please, stop making threads comparing Prime to another series? It's getting old.

    Anywho, Animated.

    He is a serious character. Did you just not read how I explained that he is still a serious character?

    Prime Humans because Miko is cute and Sari was ugly.

    I did. But I still don't see it. He didn't need his running gags, which seem much more common than his serious aspects.

    How—

    Wh—

    The number of times Fowler makes serious and meaningful contributions to the Autobot cause far outnumber the literal two seconds he takes to ramble unconsciously.

    You are really, really reaching.

    Lemme rephrase:

    While he does have his serious moments, I find them harder to remember everytime he has his little gags. And his "serious" and "meaningful" contributions are a stretch to how important he is to the actual show. I'm arguing this all the while him being my second favorite human, but I feel his character is losing what made him important to the show.

    Well lets make a list...

    Animated:

    Sari Sumdac: She's actually an Autobot who scanned a human alt mode so I don't think she counts as a human.

    Isaac Sumdac: I have mixed feelings about this guy. I mean for someone so smart he sure did some stupid things. I'm just going to label him as a bad character.

    Captain Fanzone: He's pretty much tied with William Fowler... which is a good thing.

    Angry Archer: Stupid.

    Meltdown: Love him.

    Colossus Rhodes: Bane Knock Off.

    Nanosec: Stupid.

    Professor Princess: Stupid.

    The Headmaster: Good idea poorly executed.

    Master Disaster: Wish he had more than one episode.

    Slo-Mo: Good idea poorly executed.

    Porter C. Powell: Boring and uninteresting.

    The rest of the humans are just background characters with little to no dialog though some of them are references to G1 characters I I don't think any of them are worth anything in terms of scoring.

    3/11

    Prime

    Jack Darby: I personally like him.

    Miko Nakadai: Worst human ever... if this poll were only about her it would be much easier vote.

    Raf Esquivel: He's unrealistic and they only seem to even use him as a plot device. I want to like Raf because he's still a better character than Miko but it's hard to like a walking plot device.

    William Fowler: Well I already kinda mentioned this one. :) 

    Silas: Considering I love every episode he's in, yeah he's right up there with Meltdown. But he doesn't have the super powers.

    June Darby: Has anyone noticed that after she found out about the Autobots she was hanging around the base all the time and then just suddenly disappeared from the show entirely? Plus in the pilot we got one scene between her and Jack then never saw her again till she was actually needed as a plot device. She's basically just as bad as Raf.

    Sierra: Who? That really shows how bad Prime is with giving characters screen time when I don't even know who that is. I pulled the list right off the wiki. I think she's the girl from a couple scenes that felt randomly thrown into episodes where they don't make sense. *Looks at wiki page* Yup I was right it's the girl from the scenes that felt like they were randomly thrown into episodes where they don't make sense.

    Vince: Again... who? I haven't got the faintest clue who this is, I can't even make a guess. *Looks at wiki page* Ok seriously despite apparently appearing in three episodes I still do not remember ever seeing this guy before. There's a picture of him on the wiki and I was looking at it going "What, when, who?" Easily the worst human ever. He also has a voice actor listed so he spoke in at least one episode yet I can't remember him at all. Mayor Edsol from Animated doesn't talk at all but I know who he is.

    Bryce: Seriously who the frick are these people. Was that the guy interviewing Fowler in the Clip Show Episode? *looks at wiki page* Yup that's who it is.

    Vogel: Finally someone I actually know. He should be listed before the other three. I like this guy mostly because he's Bender from Futurama. He's only been in one episode but sense he knows the secret I think he could be returning later in the series.

    I'm not going to count the 3 unmemorables for the same reason I didn't count some Animated Humans.

    4/7

    Captain Fanzone is my favorite human out of both shows because he reminds me of Rattrap. I hate Jack because I sense that he's the guy who the writers are going to pamper throughout the series, though I probably would have thought he was a cool character when I was fifteen. This is a great topic, by the way.

    I think Prime's human characters are far more interesting.

    The fact that Prime's humans are winning is depressing.

    Prime for sure. I'm finally watching Animated now, and Sari is even more annoying than Miko! Miko I can stand, and actually usually like, Sari I just want to get caught under Bulkhead's foot! Fanzone is pretty cool, but he's really the only Animated human I sort of like. :D  (He's still no Fowler though :wink: )

    Not too depressing considering this is the Prime forum. Many if not all of the threads and polls here will be biased towards Prime because it has the home field advantage. Not to mention some ongoing marketing.

    I've stated this previously when there was a poll comparing Thundercats and Prime.
