On this edition of Animation Damnation, we're chatting about the mind-boggling, incomprehensible franchise spin-off, Transformers: BotBots

After we made our way through the first episode of this show, which debuted last year on Netflix, we... had some questions. How is it that these entirely organic, decomposable things like cheeseburgers, plants and turds are turning into robots? Why, in 2022, did they set this thing in a functioning shopping mall? And is this cartoon inspiring kids to eat out of the trash? PLUS: With all the stupid character names on this kids' show, they managed to squeeze in names like "Loose Deuce" and "Handy"?

Man, come on, I already had to ban this thing in my house for being insultingly terrible and then host an exorcism to make my stupid kid stop seeking it out, I didn't need to remember that this shit existed!!! :( I'm so sorry you guys had to bear witness to this absolute shit. So many kids' shows that are like "LOL INFLUENCER JOKES" and like- no. No, My 6 y-o doesn't need that shit. Fuck off, ugh!!!

It’s not often I get my biggest laugh from the final thoughts, but Steve’s description of this show as (SPOILERS) “God’s Mistake: The Animated Series” made me laugh out loud.

I spent 40 minutes listening to y'all talk about this, and I still feel like I couldn't describe the basic premise if my life depended on it. Is this what having a stroke feels like?

Re: malls, there is one mall in my city that is absolutely bumpin, it's more profitable than it has ever been, it keeps popping up in local newspapers. Somewhere in this mall, I'm confident I could find BotBot blind buy boxes

That's it, I'm canceling my Patreon. This is now twice in a row Andrew has mocked Beast Wars and I can no longer sit idly by while Optimus Primal and Cheetor, and Rattrap, and Dinobot get mocked by these know nothings! Yes, the movie looks like garbage but not because of these iconic characters but instead because of what they are doing to such beloved characters. To this day I shed a tear whenever I think of Dinobot sacrificing himself to save humanity or Rhinox's heroic self-sacrifice that allowed his friends to return home. So, no more $10 from me.* *Joking of course--mostly.

My local mall, Cape Cod Mall, is always really busy with nearly every space occupied, but almost every mall nearby the Cape is empty. Even some of the bigger malls are vacant. I was at Providence Place Mall fairly recently and it was somewhere between Dawn of the Dead and Mad Max

One of those things that I had to see with my own eyes because what y'all were describing made no sense. Wow. That's 4 minutes of my life I won't get back. And now back to the patrone episode.

That blue gorilla can certainly fist his way through a furry convention, dude

This is a great example of an episode made better by not watching the thing they’re talking about. These descriptions are insane hahaha
