RIP... I think this is as doomed as the 2001 version.

I don't think you realize how bold that statement is.
I also think it's on par with the current TMNT and Max Steel series (Ben 10 in its prime).

The US airing is really catastrophic. Not just the timeslot but the frequency of the eps. I mean, they're only at episode 3 or something? Whereas in other countries, the show's on its first mid-season break so that the US can catch up.

Apparently, they're planning several seasons, but under Cartoon Network's handling, I don't know how long it's gonna last. And the fifth live-action movie will also probably divert Hasbro's attention, so hopefully they'll have at least another season out by then. The writers allegedly want to bring back some TF Prime characters for season 2, and I would like to see them do that.

I like both 2001 and this one. 2001 had great final battles with Galvatron. I hope that Galvatron appears in this one as well.
