All the episodes with the Quintessons were dark. The episode Webworld where they tried to cure Galvatron of his madness was dark also. Season 3 alone was more dark and violent than any of season 1-2. The Big Broadcast of 2006 where the Quint's sent out subliminal messages. That made half the galaxy go to war, was insane. The Quintesson Journal perhaps? Selling weapons to both sides of war planets. To make a profit. Doesn't get more dark and violent than that. Nightmare Planet? Ghost of Starscream? This list missed on a whole lot.

Someone replied that the fact that dark awakening was left out basically made the list invalid. I can’t disagree.
@73clementines2 жыл бұрын
There were certain episodes that imo weren’t necessarily “dark”, but the writing, storylines, etc were above and beyond most episodes. Dark awakening and burden hardest bear are ones that come to mind. But when you look at certain episodes, megatrons master plan for example, and the scenes where the deceptions start attacking the city, in addition to the city of steel (I believe that’s the episode), when the buildings collapse, there was just something about how they could flip a switch and make things really hit hard and resonate more than others. They just don’t make em like Transformers anymore…
@73clementines2 жыл бұрын
Also, not to get political or come up with outlandish theories, but some episodes seemed, for lack of better words, ahead of their time. For example, referencing city of steel again, look at the NY skyline and how it’s featured so prominently, and look at how the buildings collapse. If you remember that infamous day in 2001, you can’t help but think of it. And you can’t tell me Shaun Berger in megatrons master plan doesn’t remind you of a cartoonish version of someone in recent history. Then, there was the virus/plague from the return of Optimus prime, and how everyone starting hating one another. Doesn’t sound too foreign these days. Not like it did back then. All of the above episodes seemed totally ludicrous when they originally aired, but now, not so much!

We each have our own opinions. Yes I agree I loved both thunder cats and g-force. Robotech was a little before my time so I unfortunately didnt watch or remember to much from it so I cant argue that with you, but I did love and watched and collected every episode and action figures that exosquad released. I wish I still had them especially the Marsala ship bc that joint was a pretty penny back in the day when it came to buying cost so I could only imagine what it would still be worth mint in the box. An if people want to be wise asses and say its probably not worth much well then I'll say it would be f-ing priceless to me. I'll go as far as to say Exosquad is in my top but not higher than the 2 I listed bc I believe Transformers and G.I.Joe paved the way and helped create alot of other cartoons in the future. So most owe what they achieved to those 2. But I still loved it. I mean who dont love aliens and space mech's? If someone says they hate Gundam I'd called them a liar to their eye holes.

There were some that should be added. Cosmic Rust was one. Another one was the episode where Prime was disassembled and turned into a robot alligator. His head was carried around and the autobot holding his head had to pinch two wires together for him to talk. Also the episode called Dark Awakening where Rodimus and company are being chased by the decepticons and they come across an autobot mosoleum and find a zombie prime. That episode was pretty dark.

There are only a few moments in the first two seasons that can compare to the dark weirdness of the 3rd season. The animation is all over the place, but it's much better in terms of character and story. The music is cooler too. This list is not really accurate because all the darkest episodes were in season 3 and you skipped almost all of them.

Jetfire, not Starfire. Prime is the best hero of the time, followed by Grimlock. I chose Wheeljack as my first toy due to the cool look of the car, he later became my favorite autobot (blinking face i guess).
