I personally would have rather seen an adaptation of IDW's Infiltration, or something completely new, over this.
That said, I love Arcee (And I love her relationship with Jack. It's one of the better human/TF relationships in the franchise), and Starscream is genuinely good for once. He's a pretty top rate villain, and is actually both sinister and funny at the same time.
Soundwave is also cool for once. Soundwave has never been a favorite of mine... always bland and boring. This time he's kind of scary. I love that he doesn't speak.
Ratchet jumps back and forth between funny, and getting on my nerves.
Bulkhead, the series would be better off without him. This ruined the character to me.
Bumblebee is pathetic.
And Optimus is the worst version of the character in the franchise. All he does is make long boring speeches, regurgitate the same tired lines we've been hearing for almost 30 years now, or is all "OMG HE'Z TOTAL BADAZZ GUYS!!!! WE'RE GOOD WRITERS!"

Megatron actually looks kinda scary at times, until he opens his mouth and talks. Then be becomes a bobblehead, because the animators can't have him say simple lines without his head bouncing around all over the place.
Airrachnid, I'm just glad they didn't throw away the good name of Blackarachnia on this. Can't stand this character.

The entire first season for me was a waist. Crisscross being the only episode worth the trouble of watching. The second season has been an even bigger let down.
I've only followed it this season because it's on directly before Being Human, and there was nothing else on. Now Being Human has completed it's season, and I don't even have a reason to watch TV on saturday nights.

I'll be glad when Hasbro designs to abandon this new continuity, and move on.
Maybe they can get Greg Weisman to be the story editor for the next continuity! Now *he* can write!

Glad this is your opinion
