As a follow-up to Transformers Prime, I can understand why some people found this show disappointing, however I thought it was still fun and entertaining.

The plot is a pretty standard villain of the week set up, with some overarching elements that fall apart under too much scrutiny and characters that don't really learn from their mistakes (presumably so that the episodes are relatively easy to understand when watched out of order on television) It introduces a lot of interesting concepts (ex. Cybertronian sign language) that unfortunately don't really get expanded on, but they're fun for the episodes they're in!

The animation is pretty average. I appreciate that the robot designs are somewhat simpler so that kids watching it might actually be able to draw their favourite characters.

The music in most episodes is pretty average. The Starscream theme is a banger, but the intro music is possibly the worst intro music I've ever heard and the rest of it is pretty forgettable so all in all it evens out.

Honestly though, a lot of the jokes landed for me, it's set up well for its target audience, and I had fun. If you're looking for a light bit of transformers entertainment and you're prepared to view this as a separate entity to Transformers Prime I don't think you should rule this show out as an option :)

transformers rid is the sequel to transformers prime, while that show had a very dark and a brooding tone, this show show is a little light hearted as the there is no major apocalypse or anything, this new show is about a prison ship landed on earth, with decepticons in it getting free and now its up to bumblebee and couple others to stop them because optimus is busy doing something unknown,which means its story lines are about the villain of the week while still continuing the story of the new big bady steeljaw, so lets break down this series:first the animation, the animation is cgi rendered in 2d, while prime had great visuals, this one is all great by itself, featuring smooth fight scenes , out standing transformations and over the top car chases on later episodes, (there is one that reminded of the dark of the moon movie high way chase scene), the character designs are great (although you might not like grimlock for not being g1 grimlock at all), second: the storyline: i already said that its about the villain of the week, but that doesn't mean its bad or anything, its actually fun and most important of all, there is some major character development, something that transformers prime kinda lacked, i highly recommend this series, and if you watched the first 2 episode and stopped, you should continue as they are the weakest,all in all :transformers rid 2015 is a highly recommended series(coming by a long time transformers fan), being different isn't always bad, as fans have bee continuously disliking every incarnation since g1, and g1 isn't that good really, as this show is logically ten times better than g1.

For me,Transformers Prime was the best Transformers series i ever watched and Robots IN Disguise is somehow, a little distanced from what was Transformers Prime.It is improving with the stories, but its really not like Autobots stopping grand plots of EVIL Decepticons, but a lot of comedy and 4 Autobots struggling to control just one Decepticon every episode-NO grand EVIL yet and no big mastermind;just catch some Decepticons, put them in stasis.. and make sure they stay that way.Now , speaking of the comedy, you want to see a burger splat on Optimus Prime's face 'cause that would the silliest and most disrespecting thing happening to Optimus in all the animated multi-verse...now i am not saying loose that touch suddenly 'cause if that does the show will loose popularity and'll be canceled.I don't want that , i want the Prime animated universe to continue, now that they have introduced an OK but 'etu'innegative sequel.I say IMPROVE.

I agree with the reviewers who rated this series one star. As a transformers fan, I enjoyed Transformers Prime and was excited to watch this show. But boy, was I wrong. I watched three episodes and stopped. This show is downright awful and the characters made it worst. Optimus Prime and Bumblebee are the only ones that carried over from Transformers Prime. The others are terrible. For the Autobots, there's slacker Sideswipe, an uptight femme bot Strongarm (who looks like a male) and an annoying minibot Fixit. On the Decepticons, there's Steeljaw and the others such as Thunderhoof and Springload are just butt ugly. The story line is corny and there's no mention of Megatron, Starscream, Soundwave and Airachnid. Overall, this show is terrible and too cartoony. If you're into Transformers Rescue Bots, this show is for you. Otherwise, avoid this series.

A complete waste of time and a total let down after Transformers Prime. I died a little inside after watching episode 1, which was a struggle to complete. I have no plans to watch any of the other episodes as even watching this one episode was just too painful. My 9-year-old even hates it. He loved Prime, but he is totally disappointed in this one. I tried to like it, but it just isn't happening. Unless you want to be disappointed like us, I recommend you stay far away. Hopefully the creators will realize what they have done and bring back Prime. Bad CGI, horrible plot, and even worse character voice-overs. Total Disappointment. :(

Robots in Disguise should be a shame to the franchise as a whole. It is supposed to be a follow up series to the highly acclaimed Transformers Prime, but it failed miserably. As a stand alone series, it also struggles to justify itself. The plot is extremely silly and repetitive: there is a random animal-looking decepticon that is trying to make a mess in the nearby city, the autobots have to capture him, but one of them has to learn a lesson before doing so (a lesson that is gonna be forgotten in the next episode). This happens over and over again. The characters lack deepness and evolution, the main plot line (that holds viewers on the long run) is practically absent. This series survived from toys, nostalgia and fan-service. It is literally garbage.

My kids can't stop watching it. They are 3, 5, and 8 and it's one of the few shows they will watch together. Anytime I would allow them to watch a show, they all asked to put it on. Even my husband enjoyed it. I hope that they have more seasons planned as my kids keep asking for new episodes.

Now I had mix feelings about Transformers:Robots In Disguise for a few reasons

1.It was on the Cartoon Network, a station I still have a bitter feeling to since they don't play any good shows anymore.

2.It was titled "Robots In Disguise" because we already had a Transformers from 2001 called Robots Ind Disguise even though it was a dub from Japan's Car Robots it's still the Principal If I had a voted I would have called it Transformers:Legacy since this series is a follow up to Transformers Prime.

But still once I set down to watch it, it still felt good to be a fan of Transformers. They said this series is suppose to target a younger crowd needless to say I believe this series is fit for all fans of the Transformers because it features a lot that fans have love about the series since 1984

This time the Autobots are Bumblebee, Sideswipe,Strongarm, Grimlock and Fixit with guest stars from Optimus Prime, Drift,Jetstorm Slipstream Windblade and Jazz

The Decepticons are Steeljaw, Underbite, Hammerstrike, Bisk, Chop Shop, Terrashock, Thunderhoof, Filch, Springload, Fracture, Airazor, Divebomb and too many more to count

While the first episode did take time for me to get use to I started to enjoy the series as each episode actually makes watching this series worth while.

It features a very well done cast of voice actors who give a entertaining voice performance in each episode. I like the animation style they have for this series it gives the series it's original work and that's not easy to do anymore in TV

Plus the plot for each episode is very creative and it does a lot to work for kids and adults that love Transformers

As a long time fan of Transformers I can say is this show is More Than Meets The Eye

I have not yet finished the first season, but I really want to give this show the praise it deserves. There are a lot of negative reviews complaining that RID does not live up to its predecessor, Transformers Prime. This is true, but RID is enjoyable in its own right, and shouldn't have to live in the shadow of Prime.

One of the biggest complaints is about the animation. It does take some getting used to, but I find that it's very expressive and neat! The humans look a little strange, but they did in Prime, too. The robots have good facial expressions and body language, and each character has a unique design. I'm sure it will improve even more with time--everyone remembers the incredible progress that Prime made in the animation department.

The characters are truly the strong point of the show, though. They are diverse, well- rounded and lovable. I was not very fond of Bumblebee in Predacons Rising, but he has redeemed himself in RID. Strongarm is a wonderful addition to the cast, and a much needed female presence in the franchise. I won't go into too much detail to avoid spoilers, but the characters have a lot of heart. There is also one character who I won't name for spoilers but has particularly strong, moving and realistic characterization so far, and really cemented my love for the show.

One thing in particular that I like is that one of the characters, Fixit, has a clear speech impediment, and no one makes fun of him for it.

Other strong points: It's a typical "villain of the week" setup for the most part, but that makes it easy to keep up with and stops it from getting too dramatic. It's funny and light- hearted, and the voice actors are wonderful.

I've been a Transformers fan since 2011, although my interest in it diminished after Prime's finale and Age of Extinction. Prime is my favorite series, and I was so sad to see it go. I still miss it sometimes. I didn't even watch RID until more than a year after it premiered. However, RID renewed my love for the franchise with great vigor, and I place it as #2 on my list of Transformers series--right beside Prime.

The 'Transformers' animated shows have been very mixed overall. While there are some great shows such as 'Transformers' (1984), 'Beast Wars' and 'Prime' there are also some poor ones such as 'Victory' and "The Unicron Trilogy" ('Armada' especially, with 'Cybertron' the least bad but not saying a lot).

'Robots in Disguise' is among the franchise's worst and the worst 'Transformers' show since 'Armada'. It is redeemed by the character of Steeljaw, the most impressively designed, one of few of the characters to register positively or have intrigue value and the best voiced, deserving of being in the show more. As well as some vibrant colours and a few interesting characters, again particularly with Steeljaw.

However, some of the animation in terms of movement is static and slow, meaning that as well as dumbed down the action sequences feel lazy and lack urgency or momentum. While a few of the characters have intriguing designs, some do look weird, especially Bumblebee, Strongarm and Grimlock. The music is not awful as such, but it doesn't have the memorability factor and is not as dynamic as it should be.

Where 'Robots in Disguise' particularly fails is in the writing and characterisation. The writing is incredibly lazy and while certainly too juvenile for adults even children will find that it is too simplistic and dumbed down for them. Any attempts at humour fall flat and some of the more repetitive ones wear well thin very quickly, especially with Fixit, Strongarm and Grimlock.

A vast majority of the characters are obnoxiously out of character or simplified to dumbness (i.e. Grimlock), lack personality (Megatronus, true of most of the Decepticons who act more stupid than threatening is far too under-utilised and lacks any kind of menace) or are irritating (as well as being that Sideswipe serves as a terrible role model and Drift is an annoying jerk). Someone please also decide what personality and such to give Russell, because the frequently indecisive characterisation and writing is really grating. Steeljaw and Jazz are two of few exceptions.

'Robots in Disguise' is lacking when it comes to its storytelling too. Some episodes are paper-thin and static, while others cram in too much, so parts either feel hectic or incredibly pedestrian. The severe lack of tension and conflict and that it does very little with quite old ideas.

Not much good to say about the voice work either. There are a few talented names here (with some prolific names), but almost all either have little to do, have annoying and ill-fitting voices (Megatronus and Bisk are notably jarring) or are over-parted. Steeljaw fares the least badly by far in this regard.

Overall, despite giving it a fair and honest chance, 'Robots in Disguise' is one of the worst 'Transformers' shows with not much good to say about it. 2/10 Bethany Cox

As many have already expressed, this serie is a bit of a step down from the previous one Supposed to be its sequel, it lack the depth and plot of its predecessor

But then, it's obvious that this was not made with the same aim in mind This is clearly a "villain of the week" type of serie, with each episode throwing out a new villain, with the aim of selling toys of them

Kids can easily appreciate the humours and there were some good moment, but I was very disappointed with how they handled the whole "sequel" thing

Barely any connection to the past serie, this could be considered standalone without problems, and it might actually be better off

We need a show like the original and transformers prime. This is just bad

The series is great, and if we vote enough to it could get another season, all transformers series have been different, there is nothing wrong with this one, but it must have Megatron in it, and the return of the three kids from prime. I have a YouTube videos about it. I wonder why Megatron hasn't appeared yet. Everyone would love that, wound't you?. We should have a poll for it, I can't wait to see what cartoon Hasbro has next for the transformers. However it's all Star Wars and frozen at the moment, and just because transformers was meant for boys doesn't mean it should have more male characters, that makes it unfair, it should be for both boys and girls, it's the same with My little pony, the new baby was said to be a foul but became a female, I'm not saying I don't like her, I do, it's just that like transformers it's cented on one gender, and has more of one gender in it, I wish more girls were involved with transformers.
