Top-Rated Episodes
Megatron has been absorbing the sparks, intending to 'ascend' and become the most powerful, perfect being in the universe. Noble's sacrifice causes Nightscream to lash out, disrupting the process.
It takes a final, catastrophic battle and the ultimate sacrifice, but Optimus's Oracle-inspired vision of a balanced technorganic world may now be realised.
Horribly outnumbered, the Maximals make their final stand in a desperate attempt to protect the Sparks.
The acclaimed actor stretches his range with John Wick: Chapter 3 and plays with how he says the name of "Bosch."

Trivia
None of the villain characters in the show walk normally. Jetstorm and Obsidian lack legs entirely and always hover, Thrust balances on one wheel, Tankor rolls on caterpillar tracks built into his feet, Strika hover-skates, the diagnostic drone likewise lacks legs and instead flies, and Megatron is supported by cables within his citadel and only rarely reaches down to the floor. However, Megatron does walk with normal feet in some of the other bodies he temporarily uses. See more »Goofs
Optimus' reluctance to free the Sparks of Cybertron's people before Megatron is defeated for good makes no sense. He fears that if they gave the Transformers their bodies back, Megatron might rob their Sparks again. Actually, if they freed the Sparks and reanimated the Transformers, they'd have an enormous army at their disposal, who'd help defeat Megatron in no time. See more »Quotes

Alternate Versions
Much like in the case of its predecessor, Beast Wars: Transformers, the Japanese version of this show is a comically over-the-top parody, the exact opposite of the serious and somber tone of the original. The recurring characters retained their individual quirks, including the Vehicon Generals, whose identity was kept a mystery in the original version. These comical traits were driven to the point of insanity, with many characters constantly yelling their trademark catchphrases to break up the silence. The new characters also received their own unique personality changes -- most notably, Nightscream was turned into a flaming gay stereotype as an homage to a Japanese comedian who was popular at the time.
