    Actually, the original creator of the G1 series said it was meant for family's to watch.

    Still, I'm not sure if the female viewership is bigger than the male viewership or not with FIM

    I have only one response to this. Attention Disney, if you buy Hasbro and move Transformers cartoons to Disney XD, I will upgrade my cable package to include Disney XD. In addition, if you move the Transformers ride to a Disney park, I will make it my next vacation destination. Thanks in advance.

    If Cartoon Network ruins this show like they tend to ruin DC shows I have little faith.

    AT least I have a DVR!

    I still think Netflix would have been a better avenue in promoting the new show. Again, Cartoon Network as all but buried their action toons at this stage, so I hold no illusions that CN will dick with this as they did with every TF series since 2004.

    Can't wait for the inevitable release detailing how RiD seasons 2 and/or 3 will be Netflix exclusive (like what happened with season 6 of Clone Wars) :p

    well, if its gets cancelled, it may very well be the end of the clusterfuck known as the aligned "continuity" which seems a ok to me....

    R.I.P., R.I.D. At least we know we shouldn't get too attached, since it won't be with us long.

    If it's as dishwater dull as Prime and AEC, who cares what CN the Destroyer does to it?

    And if it somehow manages to be good like Animated, just reach deep down for the twenty whole dollars the DVD will cost.

    Yeah, this would be the worst possible choice if true. Cartoon Network has been well established as absolutely burying any shows that are not produced in-house. Though I wouldn't be surprised if somehow the people in charge of making those decisions aren't aware of this... Somehow. After all these years. When it has even happened to Hasbro before.

    Hate the line about "doing well with boys" though. So dumb and is another huge problem CN has.

    I guess that means we should expect MLP to move to Disney by that reasoning? :lol
