season 3 was cut in half because of equestria girls, which received half a season’s resources for a theatrical release  
it was not cut in half for “syndication,” because, all other hub shows (such as lps, pound puppies, etc) received full-length third seasons  
every person unanimously agrees that season 3 suffered from being half as long, because it’s true  
and equestria girls is the reason for that  
furthermore, equestria girls and the ascension of Twilight into a superposition of importance above her friends are narratively linked through the “princess summit” which no one remembers, and rightfully so  
this is even further confirmed through leaked correspondences in which equestria girls and twilight’s princesshood are identified as the core elements of MLP 2.0 which is the name given to the new direction of the show after Lauren Faust’s departure

Probably, ‘cause they’re up to 65 episodes Luckily I hear though, we’ll likely get a fourth season to MLP. (Don’t know what Transformers’ fate will be though.)

Doctor Who has thirteen episodes per season…every season. It’s not quantity it’s quality…though each episode is about an hour long, but that’s not the point.

Thirteen episodes is all Aquabats got, at all.

Thwy just want several more episodes so they can sindicate it for a higher price and forget about the series whatsoever.
 
Then start MLP 4.5 Newborn cuties.

There’s gonna be a Transformers Prime season 4.

At least it’s better than Valve. At least we are getting a 3.

Yeah, but this isn’t season 3 of Prime. I just explained that. The “Beast Hunters” arc is apparently the last stretch of the series. Which is still next year.
 
And as stated in another post… Hasbro loves ponies. There is no danger, at all. At the very least we’ll probably get a season 4.

Problem is, in an interview with Jeffery Combs, the voice actor for Ratchet in TFP, he said that Transformers Prime season 3 will be the finale of the series.

Also, aren’t there rumors of a movie? Which basically counts for like ten episodes, in my opinion.

Crossover movie. Calling it now.

No fear. This just means that there’s more money in the budget for each episode! Which hopefully means we’ll be getting 50% more awesome!

Also, this is technically still Season 2 for Prime. The episodes take longer to make, so they make like ten or fifteen then take a three month break to make more.

LOL, it took me years to figure out that is what the G1 intro of transformers was saying.

Then again, season 3 may be the final season for Transformers Prime.

It both allows them to hit syndication and makes it easier to make good, high-quality episodes. Quality over quantity, and after hitting syndication, if the shows are still highly successful, they’ll continue making more.
 
Nothing to get rustled over. It’s standard practice. MLP is making hilarious amounts of money, do you really think they’ll cancel it when it’s coming into its own? Same with Prime. If anything, Prime isn’t getting cancelled until Transformers 4 comes out.

RandomFan, that’s because it gives Moffat more time to think of ways to traumatize the fanbase.

So the line up dosent get fucked up and when the two shows come back with season 4 they can stay together.

Why does Doctor Who only get like 6 episodes a season? It’s probably a budget thing.

I theorized a bit ago that it may be a market test. Make sure we are still interested.
