    Yup, another poll.

    US shows only - No Japanese anime and spin-offs.

    Please don't bash each other's opinions.

    I haven't watched much of the cartoons as I focus more so on the comics, but from what I've seen I went with Gen 1, Animated, and Prime.

    Generation 1 - it was the first and pretty much set the general story for us. Could it have been better? Yeah, sure, but if it wasn't for this series a whole lot of things would have gone differently given that the comics following alongside it went a bit differently (if I recall correctly, haven't watched this one in a while and it's been a while since I read the comics so I might be a bit off but I'm 95% certain they went a bit differently).
    Animated - gave a nice twist on the gen 1 series and is a good show to mostly watch for entertainment. I love that it's not exactly like the other TF shows from what I've seen of it so far. (currently in the middle of season 2, though)
    Prime - this was my first TF cartoon I watched and it pretty much set the bar pretty high. The character designs are by far my favorites (except for Cliffjumpers, once I realized he had tires on his butt I just couldn't take his character as seriously anymore rip). The plot was much more serious but had a decent mix of humor added in.

    G1, RID 2001, BW. Though if Japanese series were allowed, my top pics would look different.

    G1, Beast Wars and Animated for their general funness.

    Also because of their Megatrons.

    G1 because it was good then and still fun to watch now.

    Prime is just an all around good show. Would have preferred it in traditional drawing though.

    NuRiD15 is a bit cheesy and fairly entertaining. Other then a little bit of BW and Animated,I never saw the rest.

    Have only seen G1, and RID 01 the whole way through. I like the bits and pieces of NuRiD that i've seen more than the bits and pieces of everything else. I didn't "get" Beast Wars and Animated during their original airing dates and now regret having ignored them.

    1. Armada. My introduction to the franchise.
    2. Animated. While disliking the art style at first the series turned out to be very entertaining.
    3. G1. Not the best story wise, but the characters and lighthearted tone make for a fun series to watch.

    That's kind how I feel about it. I can only take it in small doses. I love the story. I like the cgi animation. But the aesthetics just about kill it for me.

    Beast Wars for the good story-telling and character development, Cybertron because it is awesome and has anime-esque parts to it, and Animated because it was a new take that was on par with Beast Wars in terms of storyline and development of the characters. Those are my favorites. :3

    1. G1
    2. Beast Machines
    3. Animated

    Can't believe I'm leaving out Beast Wars, but at the moment, I like Animated slightly more.

    G1, Beast Wars, and Prime. Animated is a close fourth.
