Transformers TV Series 1. IMDb Words cant even express how passionate I am about. I wasnt entirely surprised how clearly I remembered individual bits of certain episodes rare character appearances, etc. I watched them, even though I hadnt seen them in 1. The following are my season by season impressions Season One In the cold light of retrospect, this is the one that holds up the least well. There are too few characters or the same ones are spotlighted too often, the action is generally tame compared to later seasons, and the stories are too campy and repetitive. The one standout episode is the last one,. The first few episodes are basically a continuation of season one, as no new characters are introduced yet, but these include two of the series crown jewels,. Yes, its a shame that a lot of the best characters were either killed off or re invented in the movie which I didnt like it had no story and that their replacements were a pretty boring bunch except for Cyclonus. But the quality of the writing was much more consistent the five part season opener,.

The DVD has an excellent interview with writer David Wise, who genially explains why it didnt turn out as well as it could have. My dream come true would be if there were a brand new series with the Gen 1 characters. I just hope they dont start until Ive broken into the industry, so I can write for it.
