Good News for all the Dinobot fans!

Cartoon Network have altered their known schedule for the Transformers: Animated series.

The episode "Total Meltdown" which was supposed to air as Episode 5 on January 12th 2008 has now been replaced by episode 6 "Blast from the Past" to air at the same date and time.

No reason for the episode change has been given, and episode 7 "Thrill of the Hunt" will air following "Blast from the Past" on January 19th, so for the moment it would seem that "Total Meltdown" will be skipped for some time.

Don't forget that you can discuss all things Animated related in our Cartoon and Comics Forum.
