Beast Wars!

My personal favoriet of the Transformers series. Smart, funny, and characters that were down right awsome.

And the fact that the heroes continusally make fun of Megatron for his 'Yeesss..." line...

Agreed, totally awesome.

I had quibbles with the end, it seemed like Optimus was winning way too much based on Deus ex Machinas and not enough on Optimus being a total bad-ass.

Then there was Beast Machines, which also had it's down notes, but totally made up for it with the end.

It does lack Bumblebee, and the Grimlock - but still, Beast Wars didn't have the annoying and often useless humans which appeared in the old Transformers.. nor that infernal Ultra Magnus whom I loathe.

Another thing that I liked was it actually gave them a reason to transform into their alternative non-humanoid form - ya'see I never actually understood why the transformers ever bothered with vehicle forms when it was clear that they're essentially useless.

Beast Machines had what the original Transformers, and Beast Wars lacked - which was a definite ending, not one where you could easily see Megatron coming back in another form - "The end....?" type endings are cop outs.

I never saw the end of Beast Machines myself. However, I loved Beast Wars simply because of how Starscream took the weakest/stupidest villain of the show and kicked everybody's ass around., though there were a lot of other reasons. Like how the other forms could still fight interestingly. Note that I didn't say well, because let's face it...a tank could beat a rat any day.

Comparing Beast Wars to Beast Machines?! Blasphmy!

And my spelling sucks.

Seriously Beast wars was most excellent. I loved it, never saw the end of Beast machines but ecurt, Starscreme did indeed kick so much ass as the wasp guy I loved Black Arachni and Silverbolt she just would tell hims traight otu "You're corny and annoying" and he just would'nt give up

Ah, Beast Wars. Boy, does that take me back. It was without a doubt the best transformers series besides the original. Dinobot was my favorite character because he was just so badass. I actually cried a little at the end of Code of Hero. As for beast machines, it wasn't as good as beast wars but still better than the transformers series that followed it.

Zomg, Beast Wars... I didn't think I'd ever hear from that show again. o.O'

I think this was my first contact with Transformers. I didn't understand anything, but still thought it was awesome. XD

It comes on. Every day. 7:00 AM on G4. Action Blast (I think.) You just have to wait about ten minutes or so for the idiots to stop talking. It. Is. Awsome.

Dinobots last Hurrah, was without a doubt the high point of any Transformers series. Ever.
