Did anybody watch Beast Wars growing up?
 
I just bought the first season on DVD for sixtey bucks and havent even begun to watch it. I thought the show was awsome. Good action and well written. Anyone else watch it?

The Clerk 03-21-2004 02:04 PM

i did! Although i didn't like the first season much. Rat Trap and Cheetor were the best!

MikesPizzaShack 03-21-2004 02:07 PM

i use to watch beast wars all the time, it was one of the best shows on at the time.

Brodie 03-21-2004 04:21 PM

I watched every episode until it went to Beast Machines...

Feral CHeetor is awesome, I still have the toy.

Stone Ill 03-21-2004 05:19 PM

I did.


Why was it called Beasties in the morning and then Beast Wars at night or vice versa?

MW8979 03-21-2004 05:59 PM

Because Beast Wars was the american title, and canadian censorship thought it to be too violent, so that country's version of it was called Beasties. Quite dumb. But yeah, I watched that show too when it was on, except that I was done growing up by the time it was aired.

CookSux 03-21-2004 08:06 PM

I was fairly old when Beast Wars aired. I'm a Transfan at heart, so naturally I watched it all.

I watched it, and liked it, but it doesn't compare to old school Transformers.

Ninjatron 03-22-2004 01:42 AM

Beast Wars is the best show ever.

Sayonara.

Extatique 03-22-2004 02:21 AM

Oooh yes, I have a few episodes on tape. I loved the CGI-animation! Before that, only Reboot had that sort of edge back then. It was a cool series, I'm a girl and I was hooked more than most of my guy friends!
I don't really care for the other versions... Megatron as a T-rex/dragon was cool... and when they got back to their home planet and it was all deserted... that season was really good too (ok so sue me I watched it but i didn't pay attention too well! *L*) robots just don't hook my attention.

ABeraserfiend 03-22-2004 03:05 AM

Though I'm fonder of the first-generation show and the more-recent Robots in Disguise, Beast Wars gets props for being the best-crafted Transformers show to date IMO.

And Depth Charge ownz.

Caster_Troy 03-22-2004 04:44 AM

"growing up" Man I am old. I watched Beast Wars when I was 17+. I watched the original Transformers growing up. Damn.

I have to say... the real Dinobot (not the f*cking clone) rocks... and Depth Charge is boss. I mean, he is just... well it's already been said. He owns!
When it changed to Beastmachines, I thought that just sucked.
I mean there were so many plot holes and it just wasn't as cool.

Storm Wolf 03-22-2004 12:55 PM

I LOVED beast wars! i used to watch it like every day after school! i didn't care much for any of the other transformer seris at all....never even attempted to like them like i did beast wars.....,,I like almost all of the characters...the concept of silverbolt was awesome...but i didn't really care for his personality sometimes....cheetor was like my favorite tho! Tigertron and air-razor were an awesome duo/couple!

Krutch 03-22-2004 02:26 PM

I never watched Beast Machines... I heard mixed reactions about it. If it ever comes to DVD i'll probably pick it up since its almost like a 4th season to Beast Wars.

MW8979 03-22-2004 02:32 PM

Season 2 was the best one for sure in BW. Beast Machines was abysmaly pathetic, since the concept of machines who are against the existence of machines is so illogical that it would probably melt down any supercomputer.

cqb101 03-22-2004 06:33 PM

Did I watch it? Pffft.....It's only my third favorite cartoon of all time! :D

Meeko 03-22-2004 11:02 PM

I loved That Show Next to TMNT best show ever

ZariusTwo 03-22-2004 11:27 PM

Beast Wars is one of the greatest Transformers cartoons of all time, and the second greatest MAINFRAME cartoon ever next to Reboot, it was SUCH a great series, with constant references to Genration One, the apperance of classic Generation One characters, and epic storylines such as the "Other" trilogy, and "The Agenda", the greatest three-parter in TF history.

MW8979 03-23-2004 08:51 AM

Absolutely right about that one. They even got the G1 transforming sound correctly for Ravage.
