death will be quick.

Yeah, Cartoon Network took a steaming dump on their previous Transformer series.  Hasbro seems to have a great relationship with Netflix, I don't know why they just didnt make Robots in Disguise a Netflix exclusive.

On one hand, finally.  On the other,  TMZ's a credible source?

[BiteMe316]

It was the first link I found when TV's Frank tweeted about "Honey Boo Boo virus being eradicated".


And I don't see it listed on TLC at all.  Like it never existed.

The way I understood it, it was The Hub that killed Animated. Hasbro had their own network and didn't want a different station to run a Transformers show.

[Sideswipe]

Animated was over before the Hub.  CN kept airing it at bad time spots, like 5 and 6 a.m.

Will he come flying out wielding a chainsaw?

[mrbasehart]

How is he coming out? Is he going to kill the Anaconda?

It all seems totally pointless.

It all seems totally pointless.

I wonder if the snake will in fact eat him with that suit on?  Don't they wait for something to die before swallowing?  After the snake spends some time trying to crush his ribcage and fails, It will probably just leave him alone.  Unless he is extremely good a playing dead...

I hope the Discovery channel isn't actually paying for this and it's something an independent company hopes to get shown there.  It really is pointless and has great potential to harm the animal.

[BiteMe316]

There's an online petition on change.org (heard about it on CNN) to keep Discovery Channel from showing that.  And I don't blame them.  There's no way I'd ever want to see that!
