Crises averted!

Posted on HUB's facebook and they responded: the February 11th premiere will be an all new episode!
Prowl
Bloody hell, I hope not, man. Young Justice did that.
On the other hand, I could have sworn the promo said New Episodes.
Because if that's true, and it's weekly, then we really won't see a new episode until the middle of March.

So, who here thinks when feb 11 comes around, they are going to start back again with the miniseries, and only after the 6th week do we get a new episode?
Prowl
Watched the whole thing again this weekend. Love it more and more each time. Bloody-hell Feb 11th can't come soon enough.

This is the first episode of the first TV show of the studio and their first animation in a more stylized environment (their game CGI was all for semi-realistic games), you can't expect a huge array of detailed backgrounds. In CGI the world itself grows as the show grows, just compare first season beast wars to END of first season beast wars, Clone Wars movie to last season they just had, the quality just keeps growing and growing. Heck and it seems to already be growing, in the first episode the human characters moved extremely flat but by the last two of the premiere they're just as expressive as the robots.
They wouldn't be THAT good in their first five if it was cheap. It's not. Like you said facts is fact and TF Prime is an amazing effort with what they have and it'll only keep getting more advanced.
Wars
I have to say I absolutely love the show so far, and I can't wait for February and until the toys come out. I think the toys will look awesome.

Facts is a facts.
Characters models is quite good and detailed.
Movements good, but not perfect. Sometimes they animated at a very good level, sometimes not.
The worst thing is a environment.
Flat trees on some scenes, low detail buildings, environment always has as low details as possible.
And main fact is, if producers don't want to make really cheap CG, they at least can hire studio with some experience at this. That Japaneese guys is good, but they still need more experience, more people in the team, and lot more computer power.
P.S.
And Clonewars is also far from perfect.

How is it cheap? Fluid movement, top notch camera-work. ultra detailed cgi models specially for the style.
It's the single best looking CGI show on right now forgetting Clone Wars which got seasons of experience and nearly infinite budget. It's anything but cheap. I think people are just confusing with "I dislike the style" with "this is cheaply made"

Good show, but not excellent.
Very good TF characters, good enough humans characters.
Good enough storyline, but far from be as good as Animated.
Good action.
Cheap CG. Both in picture and animation.

I'm sorry to hear that.
I did the same- and liked it even more.

Cheers!

i just hope that hasbro keeps up the action

It's probably my favorite Transformers series so far. No, really, I thought it was great! There are signs that Hasbro is not holding back, story and action wise, which I think is awesome.

Transformers Prime, in my view, is one of the best TF series to ever exist. It combines the story-telling of Animated and the action of the movie-verse to create a show that blows you away but still has a lot of heart. I love how the humans don't just get in the way and actully help the Autobots, but don't overshadow them like in the movies. The characters are well developed and interesting, the animation is gorgeous (if you like movie inspired designs) and there are some moments that I literally started crying. All in all, Prime is amazing and a great way to start the new decade!
Red Alert
I tried to get into this show and even marathon'd it again for a second opinion.
Horrible show.
Voiceroy
IMO, this definition of "good" isn't very good. It's like saying, "I enjoyed it, but I didn't like it either."
Yes, parts of the show bugged me, but they were only momentarily distracting. Overall, I thought it was decently entertaining which lands it in the "Good" category for me.
Poll also gets a for no "Average" category. I'm trying to imagine Roger Ebert using "On the Fence" to give a film an average rating.
…no, it just doesn't work.

One thing this show has better than Animated.
No humans villains! Seriously, they sucked.
brr-icy
on the fence so far, zombie and drones seem to be the main antagonists of the series, and if so, i would rather have some actual enemies than them, voice acting is good, designs are too movie inspired for my tastes, i like the adult human, but miko is the worst human character in a series yet (worse than kicker imo) jack is a decent character and don't know what to think of raf yet. hopefully it gets better, resident evil transformers isn't my thing
so in recent series standings, better than bay's movies, but not as good as animated

Just hopes that someday Bulkhead does his Bob Hope impersonation.
THAT'S RIGHT KMR! I remember Homeboys in Outer Space! :tongue2
(secretly hopes KMR does read this post and makes it happen )
