New Hasbro multimedia deal could see the end of Animated.

Shareholders were informed of a new deal between Hasbro and the multimedia company Discovery Communications, to look to cover the future direction of Hasbro brands on TV and online.
A press release was also given, but it was the call to Shareholders that mentioned a new TFs series in 2010 for their new partners, with the option for Cartoon Network to continue Animated if they wanted. But if Hasbro are committed to a new series and no longer supporting Animated, CN would only do more episodes if the ratings supported it.
But this is still speculation, until later when either of the parties start confirming the future of ANimated (maybe botcon will reveal more).
