In Season Five of Generation One Transformers, there were no new episodes. They cut up the movie, and just put in fifteen other episodes to make the season work.
The only new feature is that at the end of each show, Optimus Prime would chat to Tommy Kennedy who was always having a problem with a school assignment (generally about Transformers). Prime would give him the answer and then have to leave for some *lol* reason ("I have to go assist in upgrading Grimlock's brain!" *lol*).
God Transformers was hilariously cheap and lame. But still awesome.
In addition, here's a list of mistakes made in the Transformers Movie (1986):
- None of the combiner teams, introduced at the end of Season 2, such as Superion, Bruticus, or Menasor, are present in the film. This is because work on the movie began before those characters were even created. Superion or Defensor would have made a more logical match for Devastator than the Dinobots.
- In the scene where Soundwave ejects the cassette-bots to block Blaster's transmission, Rumble is accidentally colored red, making there appear to be two Frenzys.
- Starscream injures his own leg when it gets trapped while Autobot City is transfoming. At first damage is shown, but it has completely healed minutes later.
- Ramjet and Thrust are heavily damaged by Optimus Prime but are among the unharmed inside Astrotrain.
- Both Skywarp and Bombshell (or a clone of Bombshell) are reformatted by Unicron into Cyclonus but after that initial scene, there is only one Cyclonus for the remainder of the film.
- Thundercracker and Skywarp are both present at Starscream's coronation ceremony despite already having been reformatted by Unicron in the previous scene.
- Dirge, Ramjet, and Thrust are clearly shown to have been destroyed by Unicron, yet they appear in Season 3.
- Though there are three scenes with Snarl present, for the majority of the film, the Dinobots have only four members, Grimlock, Slag, Sludge, and Swoop.
- The telescope on Lookout Mountain mysteriously changes size.
- Megatron's line, "Fall, fall!," does not match the animation as if he was saying it more than twice.
- Sunstreaker is seen both working on Autobot City with Kup and on the ship on which Optimus Prime brought reinforcements.
- Blaster is shown "pickin' up a signal" from Spike and Bumblebee while the surviving Autobots are rebuilding Autobot City. However, when the Decepticons attack later on, he is nowhere to be seen. He does not appear for the rest of the movie, yet is seen as alive and well during Season 3.
- The sequence where Unicron transforms from planet mode into robot mode was taken from the original Japanese promotional reel that was designed and animated before work commenced on the film in full. This explains the lack of facial hair on Unicron and the slightly different animation model for Galvatron.

How terrible must his teacher have been to make all his assignments about transformers?
Also: "SHIT, what are we gonna do?"
I love the idea though, "how are we going to fill the rest of this episode? I know: a puppet Optimus Prime giving homework help to a live action kid!"
Go TF!
Usually those epilogous cartoon segments were educational, relating the lessons learnt in the episode to real life situations. I love then that those sections in Transformers were just about transformers.
Yeah.
It's like, "you know what's great? Transformers. Buy some of us. Peace!"
