    I've said it before and I'll say it again. I hope whoever produces the next show knows...they have a hell of an act to follow.

    It may get a comic continuation, who knows? Gargoyles got a comic ten years after it went off the air, and IDW did their Beast Wars comics a while back. If Animated remains popular enough, even after being canceled (and it's certainly doing better than the UT or RiD), it may see new life again someday, although I doubt it'll ever be animated again (the irony!).

    Just wanted to emphasize that. I respect others' opinions. If you didn't like TFA, no biggie, that's cool. But I have to say it's pretty disrespectful to everyone else that did like and enjoy TFA to slam it and proclaim good riddance. May as well be the same thing as attending a funeral for someone you hate and whipping your junk out and pissing on the grave in front of everybody else that's grieving.

    So come on, show at least a little bit of respect for your fellow fans and collectors and can the TFA hate.

    Well, that's the end of that then! Bet you we still see lots of threads for "season 4" though...

    Want to see these so, SO Badly!

    Kinda glad they didn't put the Dinobots in... I'd hate their last appearance to be them getting the Team Rocket treatment!

    You know technically speaking, they never really officially said it's over for good. We're just assuming it's over because they stopped at season 3. For all we know CN could put in an order after the next year or so for more episodes. Besides, they left so many plot points open (which they've already planned out) that it'll be easy to pick up from where they left off. Most of it was left out intentionally just in case they were to have another season.

    Dude, I'm glad you feel justified. For me, personally, even if I feel a TF cartoon or toyline sucks I wouldn't be happy to see it get cancelled. Why would anyone, on this website especially, be happy a Transformers series failed?
    I don't get that. Just my opinion.

    With all due respect to those who hated Animated. I'm NOT happy it got cancelled. Don't derive pleasure from other people's misery. It makes you look small and petty and makes the fandom look bad.

    So please go back to wishing for a better TF series made just for you . It will come back to bite you in the end.

    You had me at Backarrachnia Slave Girl. :)  Someone post this picture to feed the nerds!

    Looking forward to The Allspark Almanac - and hope someday that Derrick Wyatt draws a definitive extended TFA universe book with all the characters he never got to design, with bios etc. That would be amazing. :)

    Even though I was not a fan of the series I feel sad is over, way too soon. I thought everything was going well since the movie help bring TF to kids again. Well I hope they re invent transformers as a whole, with cgi movie still animation.

    Not a surprise, but nice to finally get confirmation.

    Tomorrow we'll probably get the announcement that Hasbro is officially shutting down the toy line.

    Where can we find those videos? Those ones with Starscream dreaming sounds interesting.
