    TransFormers Prime coming to Vortexx

    I just saw a commercial for TransFormers Prime (the TV series) on/ for normal TV!! CW's Saturday Morning Cartoons block, Vortexx. It said coming December 8th.

    I checked the Vortexx website, but it doesn't look like it has anything, yet.

    Since Saban took the block over from 4Kids, the quality of shows shot up substantially. Didn't expect Prime to end up there, though.

    *edit* I've captured partials of the commercial & will try to find a way to get them online so I can post them here (if someone else doesn't beat me to it). If my Skydrive doesn't support video, that may necessitate having a friend post it to his account (I think he has a YouTube account; I don't & don't plan on getting one). In the mean time, I'll try to get a full copy of the commercial, if it airs again today (should air again during DBZ Kai).

    *edit* It is indeed 12/8 (2 weeks from this post).

    Also, ssancho has posted a link to the vid: http://i288.photobucket.com/albums/ll191/ssjsancho/001-10.mp4

    Note, however, that it has crashed both Chrome (repeatedly) & IE9 (once), but I did eventually get it to play (on IE9).

    If true, this'll be great. Would certainly be nice to see the show on TV...getting the show's DVD's would certainly help...though I've only ever seen the season one DVD once, and I haven't at all been looking for the season two set...

    Well with Season 3 being completed they're already reaching 65+ episodes. That's the syndication number isn't it?

    We will probably see Prime airing in more channels after that.

    I caught the end of one of the commericals on my cell. I'll try to get the full thing if it airs again this morning (I forgot to zoom on the bit I captured, so it isn't as big as it could be).

    Either way, I'll try to post a vid to my Skydrive account, or get it to a friend w/ a YouTube account (I don't have one) to upload so I can post it here... It may take a while if I have to have a friend post it.

    Yes, 65 is needed for syndication. Though, usually, all 65 air first before moving to another channel.

    That's actually what Google kept bringing up, the Combaticon.

    I have a terrible quality screen capture from my cell video:

    [​IMG]

    (It was tiny, so I enlarged it in GIMP) I don't have any kind of cable, & that's from my TV.

    Skydrive won't play the vid.

    But it looks like someone else already posted one... though, it kept crashing Chrome, & I had to try in in IE twice before it'd play (crashed the first time).

    Well this is a surprise! This means that more people will have more acess to the show since CW doesn't have a package that you have to buy.

    Vortexx replaced Toonzai on the CW when Saban bought out 4Kids (yay! 4Kids is dead!!). It's just the name for the CW's Sat. Morning Cartoon Block.

    Damn, people beat me to it. yeah, it's on December 8th...the commercial idn't show anything from the show, just the title, but it shared the commercial with a promo for John Cena, also coming December 8th. Thi is pretty good for those that don't have the hub (and while the eps will be terribly behind...) it's better than nothing. Wonder if other HUB shows will share the same fate

    I think there was a commercial shown during the end credits of a couple other shows that did show some clips from the series.

    I'd be more concerned with the show being edited rather than being behind The Hub's broadcast. A bunch of Vortexx's shows have seen the clippers.

    Great, It goes from a channel I don't have
    to a channel I have never even heard of.
    That's just dandy.
