transformers B.O.T review

This forum is for discussing Chuck's videos as they are publicly released. And for bashing Neelix, but that's just repeating what I already said.

Worst. Episode. Ever.

TFwiki is the best fan wiki for a good reason.
My personal favorite line is the one right above that in the disambiguation header.
This article is about the worst episode of Transformers ever. For a list of other meanings, see B.O.T. (disambiguation).
It definitely makes it clear which article you're reading.

> "That's like calling the Terminator "Gandhi-bot 5000"

So, basically Gandhi from Civilization?

...I (finally) made an account just to make that joke.

You would think they would set off the metal detectors?

I can't wait for Chuck to take a stab at "Only Human", perhaps the one episode to raise more mental alarm bells than this one. But for entirely different reasons.

Well, outside of "urban" school districts, most schools don't criminalize their children enough to install metal detectors.

We didn't have metal detectors in the urban schools I went to at the time. That came a little later.

When I first saw the episode, eight year-old me found it weird at the silliness of the Autobots' predicament. Then came this review in which I found out that it was the Season 2 finale. Confusion turned to anger as Ironhide was treated like the Butt Monkey right before the movie. One minute he's treated like a joke, the next minute he gets his head blown off by Megatron.
