    According to USA Today, Hasbro and Netflix agreed to terms that will keep Transformers: Prime and Transformers: Rescue Bots available through their online streaming services for the foreseeable future.

    All Hasbro properties were originally scheduled to be pulled from Netflix a couple of months ago, but now Transformers fan can continue to enjoy their favorite shows anywhere on their devices.

    Thank. God. My brother still hasn't finished TFP and they almost removed the only way we could access the show. I hope they put G1 and Beast Wars back on...

    Glad for those but it would be nice if they could bring back the other Hasbro series and add some of the other series. Sure there is the Hasbro Studios Free thing on my Roku but the ads are so long and in the wrong places to the point of making it next to impossible to enjoy watching anything there.

    Could give a crap about My Little Pony and most of the others mentioned in this article. Where is GI, BW, and GI Joe.

    That makes me happy. I had wanted to watch Prime again.

    Still sad about G1, though.

    Yes I could sit on the wagon of "where's G1, BW?" I could fill a new wagon called "what about Animated and Beast Machines?"

    But honestly to me, for Hasbro to work something out with Netflix at all is a sign that someone at Netflix and someone at Hasbro know how to be real winners. Just having TFP and RH makes me happy enough. Many thanks to those who know how to make real deals!

    I am so happy for these small wins!

    My wife and I are self-employed so Hulu and Netflix are on constantly in our workshop. I'm glad Prime is staying, but we would really like G1 and Joe back as well as some of the other TF series. Yesterday I brought out my box set so we could watch a little G1. Netflix is so much more convenient.

    Good to hear!

    I don't have cable so Netflix is where my family can watch Rescue Bots. We have Prime on disc, but it's still nice to just load up 'flix and watch a few episodes.

    This has almost caused me to cancel Netflix. Out of all the STUPID... HORRIBLE.... Low budget... Unknown shit they have on there... They cut out gijoe and transformers... Possibly the most iconic cartoons from the 80s....

    Netflix can kiss my ass... The only reason I haven't canceled because of that is my daughter watches some of the fairy stuff.

    Without those 2 cartoons.. Netflix streaming is pretty damn weak. Mind you.. I dont watch a single one of those zombie soap operas though..
