Transformers: Robots in Disguise

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. :(

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.

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.

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

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.
