AboveDeepBuggy Some things I liked some I did not.

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!

Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

TheLittleSongbird The original 1984 show is still the jewel of the Transformers franchise, but of the shows that followed it the best was Beast Wars. This show is wonderfully done in most respects, it took a few episodes for the show to find its feet which is perfectly normal actually for any show and some of the animation towards the start was a little on the iffy side. But when Beast Wars did find its feet, it was exciting and emotionally impactful, and ranking it along with the others Transformers shows it was definitely one of the best written too. The animation, done with computer animation in its early days, mostly is fine with the fluidity and detail getting stronger all the time and the characters are well-modelled. The music is dynamic and beautifully scored, complete with a very memorable theme tune. The writing is some of the absolute best of the franchise, it's very thought-provoking and sophisticated and never falls into cheesiness, and the stories are really well thought out and compelling, complete with very exciting action sequences. A good thing too because Beast Wars has a lot of them, though neither fall into the trap of overshadowing the story lines so the substance is not lost. Part of the show's appeal is that it's not just enjoyable for children and adults but also you can re-visit it some time later and it has every bit the magic and more. Some may not find that the case, but it was with me personally and with a lot of friends who grew up with it as one of their favourite shows. The characters are great, Optimus Primal and Megatron hardly disappoint, though the standout characters in this show were Cheetor, Rattrap and especially Dinobot. The voice acting is equally great, Dinobot is some of the best voice acting Scott Macneil has ever done and Ian James Corlett, Garry Chalk and David Kaye to name a few are similarly expressive. All in all, wonderful and the best since the original 1984 show. 9/10 Bethany Cox

tyranid_slayer I watched this show growing up. And i loved it. I use to watch it Saturday mornings and buy the toys. This was one of my favourite childhood shows next the dexters labaratory or 2 stupid dogs.I remember watching beast wars everyday and enjoying every second. It was only after beast wars initially cancelled i heard about the transformers vehicle version. I originally thought this was a cheap rip-off of beast wars. Then i found out that transformers was around first. But the odd time you would find beast wars on i would watch it even now when the animation looks cheap.My favourite beast was cheetor i remember thinking how cool he was fighting the bad guys. It took me a while to find the toy but i almost had everyone anyway! Beast wars is a classic even if you prefer transformers anyway. The animation looks cheap now but it's still worth a look now if u catch it in re-runs.

denis888 I remember I first saw this serial in Poland, where I was working in 2000-2001, and then I got hooked on it, and started to watch every episode in the morning or daytime, before or after my classes. It really did catch me! I was enthralled and marveled. Before that, I had hated to see any of the original Tranformers Series, but Beast Wars is a huge step forward, a real progress and areal improvement. What is bad there is a second-rate computer graphics, it is at its best naive or even extremely poor, and you see all the obvious mistakes, the goofs with the position of this or that hero in the given place, his or her coloration or the odd design of the background. Never mind, the plot is breathless. The incessant war between good and band animals, Maximals and Predagons, is very real, and you see not a gorilla, not a wasp, a rat, an eagle or a cheetah, but real people beside, behind, inside them, with their real problems, characters, tragedies and even very cute humor. The Rat one is the best, a cunning little cowardly creature, very lovable and sweet. And what a romance story in the second season! I re-watched the whole serial here in Russia and still am a great fan of it. Watch it!

iced_salt Anyone still remember this thing? I remember I watched this as a little kid, and I just remembered it today, and decided to check it on IMDb. Great show, excellent animation. I loved Rampage.Anyway, I watched this as a little kid, and that was about the time when Transformers started to die down and Beast Wars started to thrive. I remember that no one really knew the plot of Beast Wars, we just liked seeing robots transform to animals and fight the other dinosaurs. It was awesome. Anyway, there's a new animated Transformers movie coming out, who knows, maybe they'll do one for Beast Wars. Hope you guys never forget this show, peace.
