Energon, because of it's non-existent plot, crappy dull-surprise ridden animation, and terrible characters like Kicker, Ironhide and Alpha-Q.

Second is the Bayverse, because of having the worst character designs since Beast Machines, terrible plots, one-dimensional characters and focusing more on the humans than the Transformers.

Third is Beast Machines, because of the atrocious character designs, character derailment and terrible characters like Nightscream.

 

The English dub of Headmasters (Haven't seen the rest) and Energon.

 

I'd vote for all of them minus Beast Wars and Beast Machines if that was an option. Only TF cartoon media worth watching IMO.

 

Beast everything. To this day, still the most ridiculous cannon I've ever seen in Transformers.

All the A/E/C/RiD is a close second, and the only reason why none of that is first place is simply because the designs at least still looked like Transformers... even despite the lame shows, cyber-key nonsense, Pokemon animation, etc.

 

Of the ones I've seen so far... definitely, Energon is my least favorite. It's absolutely the worst series ever.

 

Headmasters. I'm okay with Energon

 

Sorry.

Only reason I feel the Dinobots are excused is because half of them time when they're introduced into a series, they're created by one of the Autobots/Decepticons, and it's explained how they acquired Dinosaur alternate modes. I understand that they're terrible disguises.

But reading back, it seems you've misunderstood me. I understand that organic disguises would make excellent ones, I just don't like that with characters like Ravage, Laserbeak etc. it's never really explained HOW they look like animals.

Is it explained in Beast Wars? I never got that far in the series.

 

You didn't get past the first five minutes of the first episode?

 

That's really hard.....
I mean Bayformers sucked....
and beast machines was aweful....
but as bad as those were I've never been able to sitting thou an anime with out lose interest. There not bad there just not interesting....or does that mean it's bad?

 

I keenly dislike Armada.

 

I can't stand Energon and it's pretty poor so that is my least favorite TF cartoon but Headmasters comes in close to it.

 

Armada's just slightly worse than Energon for me (i enjoyed cybertron). Armada had too much of a "gotta catch 'em all" feel wiht the minicons for the first 2/3rds od the show and there was also that name issue with tidal Wave in the beginning. also didnt like Optimus' super mode(s) in armada. Even the awesomeness of Armada Starscream and the "Space Battles" couldnt redeem the show

 

This to the hundredth power. Just because G1 started it all doesn't mean it's a great cartoon. It's the idiotic but heroic grandfather of a massive, awesome family.

And this needs to be multiple-choice so I can select the Beast Wars era and the Unicron Trilogy. I don't hate either of those, but I'm a fan of Transformers that transform into vehicular altmodes, not.. animals. And the Unicron Trilogy is just not my cup of tea at all.

 

I haven't watched either Energon or Armada....I don't care for Cybertron very much, so I would have to predict the Unicron Trilogy would be a choice of mine.

Haven't seen Beast Wars yet....not sure I can get past the animation, honestly.

I've only seen a couple Animated episodes, but I liked it. G1 is fun 80s nostalgia for me. TF: Prime shows promise to be the best cartoon, IMO.

 

Wait, Bayverse was a cartoon?  

Worst cartoon ever! *picks*  

I haven't watched Energon and I don't believe Armada and Cybertron were not that bad.

Beast Machines was the one I used to hate but it has grown on me after I watched a bunch of times so I no longer hate that series.

 

Everything non US G1, frankly!

 

I have no least favorites. I enjoyed all the shows. I enjoyed all of them a lot, actually.

 

Energon. Probably the only show that made me think: "WTF I just saw?!" afterwards. Cybertron stays close to this point too. Hadn't seen Headmasters, Masterforce, Victory/Zone, BWii/BWN, BM, RID though.

 

Where is Gobots?
