There's nothing from the previous Jules Verne episode to imply that his first meeting the Bots involved Morocco. For all we know, Verne's first meeting of the Bots could be a strictly villain-less adventure.Flashwave wrote:Sabrblade wrote:There's still the first time that Jules Verne met the Rescue Bots to be seen, as our first meeting of him was at least his second time having encountered the Bots.Flashwave wrote:And, S4 did a beautiful job tieing up everything, even if the Pynch ep did feel a little rushed.

You're right, I forgot that one. But I wonder if that maybe wasnt a cop out to get around him being freaked out by their existance? Even still, that thread is rather well tied, having addressed Morocco's origins and putting him away as a human element. For them to go time travelling, or whatever, would be the crearion of a new plot referencing an old comment, not a continuation.

You could buy digital episodes of the show from iTunes.o.supreme wrote:Although I personally have not to much interest in this series, and my sons interest is pretty much a thing of the past, I am a completest. Too bad S!F has no plan to release season sets, especially now that the show is done (I'm saying its done...though there has been no official word yet). Releasing single discs every few months, with random episodes, some repeated, is pointless. Seems like this is destined to join the pantheon of recent Marvel series without proper releases on physical media.

Yes. Now go to your room and don't play with yourself.

kurthy wrote:I think Hasbro has an inherent problem with shows in general. They're toy commercials first even if some are very well written. That's why Hasbro did a soft reboot of the line last year with smaller versions that were updated to match the show models. It's really hard for them to sell the same character models over and over. They need a new gimmick or they need new characters.
Isn't four seasons long in the tooth for any transformers series? Has anyone made it to five seasons? I'm still waiting for a relaunch of the movies.

Sabrblade wrote:Take the first three episodes of Blurr and Salvage, for instance. I've gone into this trilogy of episodes before, but by golly, these episodes were practically an analytical deconstruction of every single TF cartoon episode that ever dealt with the subject of "young kid-appeal good guy character gets into trouble against his leader's orders". Every time Cheetor/Side Burn/Wedge/Armada Hot Shot/Energon Ironhide/Cybertron Hot Shot/Animated Bumblebee/Prime Smokescreen/etc. would get cause some mischief, he'd learn a lesson by the episode's end and at best get a stern talking to or at worst get a pat on the back and a "We're glad you're okay" from each's respective Optimus, and all that would be promptly forgotten the very next time each kid-appeal character would once again get into trouble, then learn his lesson again, and rinse and repeat.
The trilogy of episodes that debuted Blurr and Salvage were basically a big middle finger to that episodic story structure and were like "No! That's not how it works! The troublemaker isn't gonna learn anything that way. He's just gonna keep making the same mistake over and over again." Rescue Bots' take on that scenario actually devoted time and effort to put some developmental growth not only into the young troublemaker (Blurr) but also into his leader (Heatwave). Blurr caused trouble in his first outings and, on top of the revelation from Salvage about what really happened in the past (Blurr nearly abandoning Salvage on Earth), the episode ends with most of the team no longer wanting to trust him. That's a pretty grim and yet realistically believable way to end that episode. It shows that Blurr's not just gonna fall in line with the team overnight, and that trust needs to be earned instead of handed out on a silver platter.
