Does anyone feel kind of sad watching this knowing what happens in BM?

Beast Wars is one of my all time favorite shows and seeing their whole adventure, especially what they go through from their triumphs to sacrifices and loss. In the end it ends in a quite satisfying conclusion. Then comes BM and they finally get home only to find it ruled my Megatron...all because they apparently didn't restrain him as they should have.

They lose all the advantages they gained and fought and sacrificed for from the very start. The absolute worst case scenario. Even at the end Optimus still dies, this time for good. When I watch BW now, it's still great to watch but knowing what happens afterwards it kind of makes it all kind of sad in retrospect.
