Transformers Robots in Disguise: Mission secrète

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.

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.

The most telling thing about this series is that, despite the abysmal series rating, nearly EVERY episode has an average rating over 7, with a number of 8+ scores, and just a tiny handful of 5 & 6 averages. Seems like people who actually gave the show a chance and watched the episodes enjoyed them. And it does have a lot going for it. Most significant, the creation of new, interesting characters to round out the roster of familiar Autobots and Decepticons. Steeljaw, alone - one of the most complex and nuanced foes the Autobots have ever faced - made his debut in the third episode of the series. But I suppose anyone determined to hate it had already made up their mind by that point.
