    I don't really dig the cartoon much anymore, so I don't have a favourite anymore. Trying to recall what I used to like.

    The Golden lagoon was kinda cool, but everyone being gold just seemed like a cheap copout to save the cell painters painting all the TF's details, that bugged me even when I was a kid. The same with that damned Hate Plague when everyone turns red.

    I think my favourite TF episode was the Ultimate Doom part one, if only because it had a really cool cliffhanger where Prime seemingly doomed earth (the best cliffhangers are those where it seems like the good guys are totally screwed like TNG's Best of Both Worlds part 1 and BSG's Pegasus) I hated waiting for the next ep back then, but a good edge of your seat cliffhanger is always memorable (even when they do a cheap fix next episode). Heavy Metal War also seems to resonate in my memory, however last time I watched it, it wasn't so special.

    "don't really dig the cartoon much anymore" ZOMG Lord Zed what a thing to say lol, only joking. Make a list of peoples favourites on here and check those episodes out, should be a couple that bring that feeling back .

    As for my favourite post-movie episodes I'd have to say I really like Fight or flee (Cyclonus is cool in this one), Starscream's ghost, Call of the primitives was interesting and I liked the animation, the way the transformers are make to look shiny and metallic similar to in the movie. I always found The face of Nijika interesting as a kid as well. Last but not least The return of Optimus Prime part 1 and 2.

    Yeah I like fight or flee as well - just re watched it, Cyclonus and Scourge have some funny dialouge, also sandstorm always liked him. Plus soundwave was there too talking like an insecticon! Even bonecrusher made an appearance well I think it was bonecrusher

    Fight or Flee also gave us what is widely regarded by fans as the single funniest line in the entire cartoon:

    Megatron's Master Plan- The closest the Decepticons ever came to winning and nearly conquering the Earth... Until Thrust goes and blasts Telatraan-1 inadvertedly saving the Autobots and mankind!

    City of Steel- This episode is hilarious it had it all: The Constructicons converting a bunch of taxis into defense drones, Devastator with the King Kong reference swatting Wheeljack's remote controlled helicopters, Soundwave and Megatron sitting at a console using Optimus Prime's severed arm as a defense weapon like they were playing Nintendo. Sideswipe making Starscream say "uncle" and Starscream actually complimenting Megatron for once: "It sickens me to say it, Reflector, but this one time I have to hand it to Megatron. The place is finally starting to feel like home."

    A Prime problem- Lazerbeak pwning Prime! Need I say more? Also I think we got to see what Prime might of looked like had he ever actually gotten drunk... Megatron's Prime clone, calls Ironhide "Bumblebee", starts presing random buttons on Telatraan-1 and tells the Autobots Spike doesn't matter.

    Those are my 2 of my favourite episodes so far as mentioned earlier. When clone OP is urging the Autobots into the chasm is hilarious.

    Megatron is so evil in it & since I have always cheered for the bad guys it sucked knowing he would not triumph in this episode.

    I loved how Prime, Ironhide & all the boys "turn" on the flesh creatures & Megatron saves the day.

    Even though I knew they would save themselves from Megatrons plan I still laughed at the Autobots being sent to the sun.

    I still maintain that captain planet and Beachcomber were the reasons I became a hippie.
