    Default Transformers: Animated Ratings are in

    Bad news for all of you who were hoping TF:Animated would not rate well, and be pulled from the air:
    it's the #1 show in it's time period across all TV channels in the USA.

    Also improved Cartoon Network's overall viewer-ship for the same time in 2007 by over 50%!

    Looks like Animated is here to stay!
    Looking For: Wreckers Saga TPB Collection (with Requiem)

    Rating well in the U.S will not change my opinion of Transformers animation. I'd like to see the age spread on that. Last but not least I think it's called morbid fascination, you see people go past a car crash and they all have the old rubber knecks happening, we'll see how it rates in 6-12 months to see if it's really successful.

    This is not really a surprise and was expected.

    Despite my issues with it, it does happen to be better than most of the junk that you see in cartoon network even if it still follows the same crappy animation style.

    Also I have learned that if the US is raving about something it doesn't necessarily mean its good EG: Spider-Man 3, Pirates 3, Movie Leader Brawl!!)

    Animated has stepped into territory that I don't necessarily like for Transformers (stylized animation, Super hero plot) but its last episode has proven that it can tell a decent story within those limitations (which i see as restrictions) unlike the fairly crappy 'movie' first episode.

    i watched the first episode yesterday (haven't finish yet)... OMG!! I dunno if I should hate it or give it time...

    Though the characters seems to be quite established... they seem very childish! or maybe it's just bumblebee :/

    anyway, I'll go catch the rest tonight
