I think you guys did an excellent job on the 3rd Party vs Botcon issue.
Then I stopped listening because I didn't want to be spoiled on Transformers Prime. I'll catch up later.
As for bad cartoon writing, it is difficult to get away from but I will say that the Prime writing from what I've seen makes it look literary when compared to the writing for The Clone Wars. TCW's writing is just aweful on almost every level.
