Looks like they already have the first season episodes, too, actually. Here's the direct link:

I already have all the eps myself, but maybe I can convince some of my currently TF-clueless friends to check it out. They all liked the movie, after all. :)

Good for those who do not own the DVD's.

Is it not viewable for those of us unlucky enough to live outside of the USA? :P

Awesome. And, Doomboy, the G1 episodes 1-11 can be found on Youtube, the whole episodes. :grin:
But, yeah, I'm in the US, so it isn't really my deal. :P

I've been watching these things for months on Joost. Did they make them available to non 'friends' or something?

If I didn't have the DVDs I'd be mad since this computer has no sound.

Otherwise, good stuff!

I have them all on DVD so I am good. No viewing outside the US? So much for the WWW!

What's the quality of the episodes? Are they the early animation versions that got stuck on the Rhino DVDs or are they the original broadcast versions?

There use to be a youtube video showing the differences, but I can't seem to find it now... oh well.

they started putting up season two episodes.
but the one that's up is labeled "Season2 epsiode 1 changing gears"

isn't "autobot spike" the first episode of season two?

I just tried the Joost, and the quality is not bad for a free online video. Better than something like youtube.

It's also a great way to make screen captures. I'm attaching examples.
