I actually like Carwash of Doom. I mean...Ratbat! Come on! Anything with Ratbat in it has to be good! Right?

What? No? Ok, then...

Anyway, while I can't bear to watch Carnage in C-Minor, it's hardly the worst episode. Child's Play, Only Human, and The Ulitmate Weapon are all far worse.

Season 2 was my favorite due to all the characters being used properly, everything was well established at that point. We had the new cars, combiners, Omega Supreme and it was all the season 1 characters interacting with the Season 2 ones unlike the last season and a half which focused mostly on the new characters. I also hated the path that Season 3 and the movie too the series so I think Season 2 was really the last good moment in the cartoon series before they just killed it there.

Just a simple opinion. I think the cartoon rules over all though so either way it's fine by me :)

I was a big cartoon fan when I was a little kid..................until I got my first comic :roll:

So it's option #4 for me.

Carnage in C Minor is unfortunate enough to suffer not only from a horrific plot, but also the worst animation in the show's history. That's why it gets singled out, I reckon.

B'ah! The Ultimate Weapon is quality.

After years of the most convoluted and ridiculous plans ever as Megatron, Galvy finally stumbled on the most blatantly obvious path to victory ever: Fib.

And the brilliant thing is that he almost got away with it, too. That is worthy of applause!
Grrr. Argh.

'Carwash Of Doom' I dunno. But it puzzles me how cartoon fans sometimes use that story as one of the arguements that cartoon is superior, and simultaneously forget about 'Auto Bop'.
It puzzles me that cartoon fans use an issue that is crap for exactly teh same reasons the cartoon is crap as an arguement that the comic is no good...

Season Three. It contains two of the three single-part episodes I'll generally watch for a reason other than to check a quote: Fight And Flee, and Dark Awakening.

The other being City Of Steel. I don't have to have done acid to appreciate drug humour.

Silence! Unleash any more blasphemy against Ratbat and I will use my unspecified ultimate weapon! Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha!

erm...

Oh, I have no problem with that...indeed, Galvy's plan was above-average. The problem is that the dialogue earns more cringes than any other ep in Season 3. It's like the writer tried to roll up a season's worth of cliches into one episode.
