I'm Guessing Mech for the Unexpected Ally.

 

I'd also guess Starscream, given I can't see them sidelining him for the finale. He's too major a character to not show up.

 

I feel that it will be epic.

 

geez is this series going to GO somewhere in those final episodes?

 

AWESOME!!!!!! Can hardly wait for the out come. I hope it's Starscream or Breakdown who is the unlikely ally....more Breakdown cause I love that guy! He'd beat the crud out of G1 Motor'Master' Then see whose the wimp! HAHAHAHA!! Anyone know when Season 2 will start?

 

ooh a 3 parter! i can't wait!!!!!

 

Considering every single episode progressed the plot and characters in a way or another, it would be foolish to assume that the season finale wouldn't.

But of course, because the world isn't ending and Megatron isn't getting revived every episode it's "lol filler".

 

MECH makes the most sense as the ally. They can't very well rule the world if the Cons destroy it.

This could also be the perfect excuse for them to give project Chimera a field test.

 

3 Parter? Nice. And here I thought the last episode was part 1 of the finale, little did I know it was only the prelude. Can't frickin wait.

 

I'm gonna disagree, but the truth lies somewhere in between "Filler" and "Every episode moves the charachters forward"

The ONLY way you'll convince me Miko has moved forward as a character is if the show was ballsy enough to reveal she had some SERIOUS issues resulting from her parents being across planet and her not sychning with her care family, resulting in her being suicidal.

Cause right now I don't see hows she learned from the near death situations she's been in let alone the...what are we up to now 5? 6?

And while it's far from filler, I've tired of "OOO we found yet another ancient cybertronian artifact of immense power buried under 6 inches of dirt."

 

No, let's not go down the "Every character must have a dramatic past to be considered deep and complex" route.

 

*sigh*

Also Shroob did not specify which character. Regardless of whether you feel she developed or not it is blatantly untrue to say the others haven't.

There's also the fact that he said characters and plot. Predatory, for example, advances the characters while Out of his Head is more of a plot driven episode.

The artifacts are explained as remnants of a war on Earth. Also that has only been used 4 times so far.

 

Good thing there's only 3 episodes about that then, huh? With only two actualy using it as an actual plot driving tool since in Partners the bulk of the story was Arcee and Starscream arcs about her partner and his loyalty coming to close.

Also Miko not learning her lesson doesn't suddenly cancel everything else that happened to everybody. Doesn't cancel the fact that the show got an extreme sense of continuity either, I'm still impressed that Speed Metal and Shadowzone ended up becoming relevant some episodes later.

But I think this is talk for one of the 101092012 Prime forum threads about Miko and not this topic which is about airings and episode description.

 

Is the season finale going to be a cliff hanger a la TF Animated season1?

 

I'm thinking that last date is a typo (should be 10/15/11 yes??) Anyways, cant wait to see the 3 part season finale (already saw all the episodes Canada showed early on). I dont mind a cliffhanger as long as some plotlines are resolved, but leaving everything open ended is just getting old...

 

Perhaps Dreadwing?

 

Airing all the finale in a row? Glad to see the Hub is taking a break from its asinine breaks.

 

Does anyone even know if there is going to be a second season of Prime? Wasn't there rumors a few months back that the Hub may fold?

 

Season 2 was confirmed to air in november

 

Was that before or after the big quake in Japan?
