"Until he was offlined by a cosmicly empowered Starscream" - the real best human quote

🤦🏻‍♂️ lol

Thank Primus!

Lucky us 😅

Just you wait

Actually he destroyed a couple cities.

@@jakeproven256 Then that's Budiansky's problem and not the premise he gives to justify it

Jake Proven in the 2000s with the minicons I liked the humans

Me too. Why not?

Me too.

Yeah I agree too, I never thought of it that way before

I liked the episode on Animated "This is Why I Hate Machines" where Fanzon is sent to Cybertron (on accident) with Ratchet.

I always put humans in two categories. Necessary humans, and unnecessary humans. In Prime, G1, and animated had necessary humans who made some degree of sense being in the plot. The movies, pretty much all the other series had unnecessary humans that added nothing to the plot, and typically just are in the way.

Sasquatch 2099 What about in Rescue Bots?

@@gutsmasterson2488 wouldn't know in that case. Kinda outside my age range and interest. From what I understand about the show and said in this video. My guess would be more towards necessary humans. Being first responders in emergency situations. These people would make sense being in the plot. Part of my determination is: do the people make sense being there. If you cannot justify people being involved or adding to the plot. Then they are unnecessary humans.

That talk between them gives me chills everytime. Such a memorable and nice moment. P.S. now that I think about it, most of the episode Fowler was talking to Bulkhead helping him get through his mission

Please! For the love of Primus!

Yeah, I love that about Prime. Especially that heart-clencher at the end. Arcee: Keep in touch, Jack. Don’t make hunt you down.

WHY WOULD YOU CAUSE ME SUCH PAIN

No

@@oreopug7986 It's a reference to The Office.

Shiiiiiiip!

@@callumcrane241 Yes, is my ship too. If only I had an Alexis toy(preferably an action figure) to go with my Generations deluxe Starscream.

Agent Fowler isn't the first FBI agent in transformers tv shows to team up with the Autobots. In Cybertron there was one as well as a paleontologist.

@@barrybend7189 we dont talk about cybertron.

Patrick Milewski I agree he’s my favorite

@@edwardo6834 agent Fowler, cade yeager and sari sumdac are my favorite human characters even the animated supervillains

@@Bearded_Bream I hope no one is that cruel to Chris.

ProfessM you be surprised

Dr Arkeville is the best human

@@ShahPhilLeotardo "YOU TURNED ME INTO A MECHANICAL FREAK!" He was never seen again Charlie Watson and Bumblebee were an awesome team, very heartwarming

My favorites are the Sumdacs. True, Sari might be cheating since she's a techno-organic hybrid, but that was an interesting plot in itself.

Same! The burns family is literally the perfect example of humans done perfectly. They only add to the show. I’d be terrified to see the rescue bots have to deal with a Decepticon. They are not fighters. They’d probably have to call in bumblebee and Optimus for help.

If Deceptions had to show up, maybe the Constructions could've worked? Have them pretend to be allies like they did with Grapple and Hoist in G1, before revealing their true colors?

Could you imagine if there was a crossover episode with Prime and Rescue Bots where it's in the Prime show POV? that'd be incredible!!

I kind of feel like the Rescue Bots would kick ass as you know they actually can do their job while the Decepticons are the world's most dysfunctional Army while I am new to this fandom basically well I've known it since I was little but you know I never got to the full Obsession I still feel like the Decepticons are a bunch of idiots who barely know what they are doing and just get lucky

@@infiniteoctopaw If I’m being honest. The rescue bots are probably the closest thing we’ll get to Cybertronian civilians (Cybertronians that didn’t choose a side). They’re not warriors per say, just regular people ending up on a planet that’s not theirs.

And you've been watching…WHAT on this channel? 😑

Isn't that just this channel?

*ba dum tiss* 😎😂

@023 Studios your point? I think I would want to know about the war my basically destroyed but somehow still running 2009 Volkswagen jeda is doing... SERIOUSLY WE FORGOT TO CHANGE THE OIL FOR 5 YEARS, HOW IS IT ALIVE AND NOT A SAFETY HAZARD? WHAT THE HELL IS THE GERMANS DOING TO THEIR CARS, BLOOD SACRIFICES?

@@shadowsnake5133 Maybe your car was a ghost.

the Chad Dr Morocco versus the Virgin Silas they're in the same continuity yet Morocco didn't need to cannibalize Autobots to make his robots he realized that he could just make it like Hasbro does see transforming things exist we know this because of the toys duh I theorize that the reason the transformation Cog is a thing is due to the fact that they need somewhere to safely remove their parts to stop them doing something like accidentally shoving a tire through their Spark

​@plantainsame2049 transforming things exist yes, but they're not living beings like cybertronians

Seconded! He's in Animated, isn't he?

I totally agree with both you and Bob Budiansky.

Transformers are robots not human

bumblebee proved humans can be done right in the movies, hell even some of bays human characters werent that bad

@@TheDaxter11 I agree. To be honest, my favorite human character in the Bayverse was Attinger and Savoy. Yes, I know people are going to say that they are the bad guys and they killed all the Autobots. But to be honest, they had a good reason to do so, they believed that what they were doing was the right thing and wanted to secure a better future for humanity. Tho their actions where wrong, they had every right to do so. Attinger was concerned for the future of humanity and Savoy wanted revenge by killing all Cybertronians.

@@HenryLouis21 I agree with you there I do think it's the stigma for the dislike of human characters in Transformers was caused by the bayverse. but I can also see the other side of the argument given that the internet pretty much render the need for the Autobots have a human guide obsolete because all they need to do is hack in the world wide web and learn everything they need to know about humans and earth in a matter of seconds. I wll say Transformers Prime and Transformers Animated had the best humans characters.

IKR

I think it’s for the best.

Kiss Players?

I always wondered how is it that Cody's blonde Cade is a ginger which is rare and Danny and Graham have two different shades of freaking brunette

@@plantainsame2049 Genetics are weird man. My cousin has blue eyes, despite almost everyone else having brown eyes.

@@koolmckool7039 they are

I genuinely wonder if Kade loves pizza more than this own job as a firefighter.

Just bomb em if their so annoying

@@thomastakesatollforthedark2231 while that would indeed bring great joy, it is more practical to enslave the fleshlings to harvest the earth's resources for us.

President Starscream is it though? Humans require great amounts of food, life short lives, take forever to breed, and waste 8 to 10 hours a day to recharge.

@@oreopug7986 while some Cybertronians do indeed seek close relationships, even those that humans might interpret as "romantic", I have no time or patience for such trifles. Though I do admit that there's a bit of a love/hate thing with me and Megatron. I love to hate him.

@@thomastakesatollforthedark2231 all we really have to do is give them juuuust enough freedom to let them take care of their own maintenance and they will. After all they already have the necessary infrastructure in place for such things. Aside from that we'll just use them till they're used up. No point wasting energy killing them when we can work them to death. Though we will have to do something about earth's militaries. Humans are surprisingly good at making weapons.

Jeffery Quick But Jack is so boring!

@@chey6073 I'd rather have boring Jack than Irritating Kicker.

The Transformers Prime brats were the worst part of the show especially Miko she’s worse than Daniel from G1

Sari is worse

Sari has no place on a best human list for obvious reasons

That sounds awesome!

That could be given the right written and tools incredible

This sounds like a certain story in transformers fiction, which introduces furmanism... But I can't put my finger on it, can I do less?

That sounds awesome!

That....realy sounds like Fanfiction. Also i dont think you ca integrate all Karakters so easeley in ONE Universe unless we say Shokvave foused all the Universes into one.

Nah. It made them more flexible.

@@mitchfletcher2386 I mean, we can fit inside a 3 meter diameter sphere, so yeah, I can see that. Or was it feet? I don't remember... oh well, try not to die attempt to fold yourself person who's going to test this to spite me.

@@shadowsnake5133 *LET'S JUST SAY IT'S GOD DAMN MAGIC, OKAY?!!!!*

I can turn myself into a marketable plushe

That's why i hate Season 3 of G1

I'm inclined to agree but there are cases where the story worked incredibly well without any humans and where their inclusion would have been detrimental, like MTMTE for instance

Beast Wars was just fine without humans (not counting that one episode).

@023 Studios Unless they're other aliens.

“Just big metal humans”....I fail to see the problem.Besides 90% of all TF human characters are awful. That’s not hyperbole, how many of the characters in the above vid would be considered a “tragic loss” if they got squished by a big metal foot?

You sure, Jolene?

@023 Studios you are right about it being feeling a bit empty! I wish they had continued those little human/transformers interactions (the news reports, the funeral). It's so weird that the Transformers are fighting all over Earth, and yet no humans are around. It's very strange

@023 Studios idk I really liked it! I liked seeing human and transformers interactions evolve because if aliens really invaded then that's exactly what we would do. I'm also part of the younger generation, so instead of being cringey, it's more funny to me.

@023 Studios he probably would have been at Starscream funeral, vlogging

Carrie Thomas Makes sense good point👍

I actually like Jack Darby, Miko I like also, raf is my least favorite of the prime series though he did have some good moments. Though nobody tops agent Fowler as a human character!

my brother and I grew up on Transformers Cybertron. Bud was our favorite, hands-down.

The issue with Rad, Carlos, and Alexis is that they took up too much screen time. It makes sense for kids/preteens to be somewhat annoying, but it was too much. Alexis is kind of forgiven because she had that one episode with Starscream, which redeemed her in the eyes of a lot of fans.

@@transformer03 you would not like Masterforce then.

Sari grew up to be Princess Twilight Sparkle. I want a MLP Equestria Girls Transformers crossover Toy line badly. Twilight Sparkle driving Bumblebee. A great casting gag.

Miko is horrible she’s the only human character that is as annoying as G1 Daniel

I like miko better than sari

RaiOfSunshine I agree Miko took the Prime series over when she was placed in the the wreckers and fought using the battle suit, she fought them using wrestling moves.

Jack Darby's always been my personal favorite human character mostly because one obvious is literally saying you're worthy to be a prime then you got to be up there technically Jack is the first organic Prime. I mean I absolutely adore him he's a good human character that I actually can relate to a lot having grown up without my own father while also being in high school at the time of prime airing. Also his relationship with Arcee is by far my most favorite Transformer human interaction. Also he was ballsy enough to blow Arachne as a ship. You got to get the good credit you also willingly spared Megatron but I mean honestly I don't blame him as ratchet said about him he was a lot like Optimus when Optimus was still Orion Pax.

If the Human stuff is tied in with the Transformers stuff it’s fine IMO. This is why Charlie’s story succeeded decently and Sam’s story failed so hard.

@@myriadmediamusings Exactly, Sam's entire relationship with his parents, them thinking he was masturbating, his mom getting high, had nothing to do with the Transformers and was a complete waste of time.

@023 Studios Yes, but I'm watching a movie about Giant Alien Robots, not about an Average American Teenager

@@peterdanior4538 Who wants to "mate with the female" that badly.

@@twistedgaming9185 I actually like that bit as it does involve the Transformers interacting with the humans. And honestly it would have been funnier hearing an autobot talking about Sam rebooting his CPU or performing a maintenance check on his drive shaft, than his mom talking about it

It pretty much ended the cartoon on a good note... until Rescue Bots Academy happened.

Hey rescue bots academy is pretty good...though I do miss the burns, we only get cody and in small doses...

No wonder why you're dad left

I do not think humans are capable of surpassing Cybertronians or any other advanced species in the galaxy humans are too weak even in real life humanity is weak and will never change

it is surprisingly good considering it's one of the younger target audience shows of a franchise that's literally made to sell us hunks of practice giving all those things it is a f****** great show and yes this is mostly bias leave me alone this is my childhood

You like miko?!

What if the cybertronians and humans were parallel species, beneath human flesh and blood vs cybertronian flesh and energon,

@@pierceplaysstudios245 Miko wasn't bad honestly I can see why some might have been annoyed by her at times but I personally didn't minded her much

@@husariuspl117 Mike constantly put the other two humans in danger and just to get "cool pics". Also she NEVER listened to the bots and always fallowed, and than she being there slowed the mission down for the bots because they had protect her instead of going on the offensive

@@pierceplaysstudios245 constantly? She did a couple of times but not often and she learned that and while she's still not fully careful she did ended up helping How many times did she slowed down the mission? It happened around the beginning sure but again...not much often

For some strange reason, I'm seeing Raf and Jack passing Biology/Anatomy notebooks off to Rachet.

Leo Lim The Burns are top tier human characters

@@chey6073 Kade is my favorite Burns. Every line he has is great.

Kool McKool I like Kade and Heatwave’s dynamic of always hazing each other, but the best human/bot pairing is Dani and Blades. Blades is afraid of flying and is nervous in general, but Dani helps encourage him and shows that he can do more then he thinks he can. Their relationship is the first I’ve seen a bot heavily rely so much on a human before.

@@trika91 Agreed there. Kade may be the best Rescue Bots human, but Dani and Blades are the best pairing.

@@trika91 I got to say the best human cybertronian interaction has got to be Jack Darby and Arcee, I mean Jack basically was the one who was able to get Arcee to let go of Vengeance and other things he never told her to stop being angry at arachnia no no no don't let it consume your life basically. I also liked how Jack basically became her Rock emotionally well also being one of the only humans willing to stand up and tell him to go screw himself. Well played Jack will played.

KIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

actually they do all need to be aliens cuz you know everything's an alien I'm an alien You're an Alien it's all just a matter of perspective yes I know I'm being a smart-ass

Wouldn't say smart plantain.

I agree, and I also love that Headmaster is just a play on the old Headmasters gimmick.

*deep inhale* "PRIIIMMMEEE!*

I think the stigma for the dislike of human characters in Transformers was caused by the bayverse, which put way too much focus on the humans and not on the Transformers, and the human weapons work against the Transformers when they shouldn't work at all. but I can also see the other side of the argument given that the internet pretty much render the need for the Autobots have a human guide obsolete because all they need to do is hack in the world wide web and learn everything they need to know about humans and earth in a matter of seconds.

Lack of equal focus on both transformers and humans and humans sometimes being extremly anoying gave this idea a bad name

First off who made you my master, you can't tell me what to do. Second I will always defend art, even if it is not to my liking. With that said, yes the Kiss Players are a bit "cringe worthy", and even I find some of it questionable to say the least. But it is not anymore "perverted" , or "pedophilic" than most movies and shows made by Disney or Nickelodeon, which never get called out for the same crime. And don't presume I am a "creep" just because I was impressed that the Kiss Players were not omitted from the video.....they are a part of Transformers history, just like the Bay movies, which are just as bad, just saying. And whom ever reported the reply the first time I made it, you got some nerve. I was insulted by the above comment and I am just defending myself.

@@ChangedMyNameFinally69 All told I had to step back and really think about how I feel about your comment and the subject in general. In a way I see what you are saying and I actually agree it made no sense to make a series like the Kiss Players. I really don't know what TAKARA/TOMY was thinking when they greenlit the idea. The sad fact is it kind of ruined the Binaltech Asterisk line, which I am more of a fan of to be honest. I also hate the fact that the only official figure of T-AI from RID (2001) is the one designed by Yuki Ohshima, the creator of the Kiss Players. Even though there is a lot worse out there than the Kiss Players, I do agree it has no place within Transformers, and in a way I think it has made some fans more sensitive to any type of "fan service" in Transformers series. I guess what I mean when I say "defend" is not really defending the content (even though I don't dislike it as much as others), but I guess I just hate when others make even speaking about it as taboo within the TF fan community, and if someone even mentions it they are some kind of creeper. Love it or hate it, the Kiss Players is a part of the history of this series we all love...maybe a dark part and a WTF were they thinking part, but still a part of the whole that is The Transformers.

*Zip! zap! ZOOOOOM! intensifies*

I wished Daniel, Carly & Spike were offlined by cosmically powered Starscream.
