MSN TV Guide has updated their listings for Transformers Prime with the titles of two more episodes. The next two episodes are titled Operation: Breakdown and Crisscross. Bad news is the airdates indicate we’ve got another brief break in new episodes after Shadowzone on 14 May – Episode 16, Operation: Breakdown, will air on 18 June, and on 25 June Episode 17 Crisscross will air.
Although on the plus side with what is sure to be an onslaught of Dark of the Moon media in the intervening weeks, we’ll hardly be starved for new Transformers goodness.

As for repeats looks like the HUB is airing various episodes starting Mon 12 noon & 12:30am, then 6:30pm, the Tue thru Thurs… airing @ 12:30am and 6:30pm, Friday 12:30am and 10:30 pm
All times are Central.

Yeah, I was kinda hoping that it'd be this up coming saturday.
Oh well…One more week is not going to kill me.
Danger Mouse
Looking forward to the new set of eps
LOL, too true.
Yeah it would be interesting to see her deal with that and make for some good interactions.
Love that idea, I'd love to see him back to voice Cliffjumper in a flashback episode or interspersed character thread during an ep that adds another dose of character build up.

That would be awesome. I just imagin Arcee's suprise. All hideous and whatnot.
As for Partners, I want The Rock to voice again. Cliffjumper in flashback, and accualy speaking would be great. Maybe it could tie-in with the end of the flashbacks in 'Predatory', when him and Bee save Arcee.

Just had a thought about "Crisscross": if it's anything like the "Batman: TBATB" ep. "The Criss-Cross Conspiracy", it'll probably involve Arcee and Airachnid switching bodies! Maybe Airachnid could make use of the cortical psychic patch from the ep. "Sick Mind" to crossover their minds? Then posing as Arcee, she could find Jack and exact her revenge on him!
If something like that turned out to be the case, then I've just predicted this ep. in my "Mind Switch" ep. premise in the other thread!
Or maybe another Arcee flashback ep. exploring her previous partnerships?
Overlord Balder
Yeah, most likely.
I think that because of the focus Breakdown got on "Operation: Breakdown", and the fact MECH is involved in both episodes…maybe this is a MECH-arc? wirth them being villains on all five aformentioned episodes? [OP: Breakdown, Crisscross, Metal Attraction, Rock Bottom, Partners].
AND because I love those two, they are like Pintel and Raggetti from POTC, a episode about them would be amusing to watch.
Besides, I'm eager to see how "friends" they are: to the point of actually being worried with each other's safety? Rivalry? Or just some co-worker relationship?
Autovolt 127
Dude that would be awesome.
However i think it's actually going to be the Autobots and their kid companions.
Overlord Balder
There's something telling me that "Partners" is focused on Breakdown and Knock Out.

That week-long break will feel like nothing compared to this Prime-less month…

Goddammit, Rock Bottom better feature a cameo by Dwayne Johnson.

The problem I had was I didn't know about TFAnimated exsistance until it was finished. So when I was waiting for TF2 movie, I could treat myself to viewing it all from start to (sadly) finish. As it is now with Prime. I watched a good portion of a great TF saga to tide me over. And like ANimated, I find it better than the movies. But I must wait, grrr!!!
Tell you what, I made a daft little cartoon of TFing robots on YOUTUBE. I call it 'Robot People That Turn Into Stuff'. It might amuse you… I hope.

Phssst… quit complaining about episode breaks, this is nothing compared to back when CG animated shows first started airing like Reboot and Beast Wars, especially in Canada where we STILL aren't even caught up to where the HUB is in releasing episodes now.

i think they are trying to stretch out the season, because if they didn't do this, the season would be over before the end of summer, or they would take a summer hiatus. if they show two new episodes a month and take two weeks off then, they could stretch it into early fall, since the first 5 eps where a preview movie, and they showed a couple eps right after another

Don't forget that Renegades had it's own fair share of breaks and that it will go on a hiatus until 2013 once the season ends, so it can benefit from the new movie's release. This will leave Hasbro with just MLP and TFP, the latter of which would probably wrap up it's own first season shortly after that.

Snark..I can't say for certain, I watch only a handful of animated series. I would guess that with spring breaks and summer coming up there will be several series with some type of break in new and repeat episodes. just my

This is getting old. Very disheartening.

Are delays like this common for childrens' shows? Like moreprimeland said, I'd imagine children are more likely to accept repeats, but I'd like to know if this is standard practice for kids shows.
