Transformers Prime (2010)
Different but memorable
Contains a lot of references to the multiple series that came before it while adding new aspects to the franchise. The characters grow and have depth which we see throughout the show. One of my favourite versions of the franchise so far.
ReBoot: The Guardian Code (2018)
Hefferon didn't think this through.
From the beginning, it seemed that rainmaker had no intention of promised for the show. Whether that's due to the forced way that the actors portray their characters or the script cliche formula. On top of that the way that the original characters from ReBoot are represent is an insult to what came before both to diehard fans and the creators of the original show. The animation for the cyberspace sequences looks cheap and tacky similar to what you would expect from a PlayStation game from the mid to early 2000s. The villain Megabyte is shown in his original from for under a minute before being "upgraded" into his new form, but the biggest insult has to be in the 10th episode which feels like a middle finger to the dedicated fanbase equivalent to a middle finger. It just seems that Hefferon wanted to craft this show to his own design without and thoughts regarding the original.
I hear people arguing that it's just a "kids" show why are you taking his seriously? But I say kids deserve better than this. Children are a lot smarter than you think, trying to dumb down a beloved show to this is just a step backwards for my taste. Can I recommend this, certainly not!
