    I was born 4 years after the premier of the G1 cartoon, but when I was 4 or 5 years old, I remember seeing re-runs of the cartoon on whatever channel it was that had Ranger Danger in between commercials. The first episode I ever saw? "More than Meets the Eye Part 1." What are the odds? :lol 
    20 years later and I still love it. Here's to G1! :bday

    I remember (and if anyone grew up in Phoenix) a show called Wallace and Ladmo. It was an hour long kids show, anyway, it showed the episodes in 3-5 minute segments... I'm sure I was late more than a few times. Totally worth it.

    I was born seven years after the original The Transformers cartoon premiered, but I do understand the value that the show still holds for the franchise. Happy Anniversary to the beginning of Transformers cartoons! : D

    (Although I need to resume watching the show on my Complete Series DVD set - I think I'm only about twenty-five episodes in.)

    And yet only three of them aired in the US have been any good.

    Four if I feel like being generous.
