Transformers Animated

Transformers: Animated is a 2007 animated television series remake of the classic 1980's "Transformers." Designed for a younger audience than the original, its premise is that five Autobots become stranded in futuristic Detroit, which is now known as the "Robot City" because of the advances in robotics that have taken place there. Battling both Decepticon and human super villain threats, they become the city's guardians. Their leader is Optimus Prime (David Kaye), and his teammates are Bumblebee (Bumper Robinson), Prowl (Jeff Bennet), Ratchet (Corey Burton), and Bulkhead (Bill Fagerbakke.) They befriend young human Sari Sumdac (Tara Strong), who helps them to adjust to the culture and practices of Earth. The stories featured several arcing plots told over many episodes, and take place entirely outside of the continuity of the other Transformers media. Three seasons were produced with a total of 42 twenty-two minute episodes. Any young fan of Transformers or action packed cartoons will find something to like about Transformers: Animated. MORE
