· 4-6 p.m. ET: "Transformers: The Animated Movie"

While the Autobots and Decepticons are locked in a vicious battle, a colossal new force enters the universe and threatens the existence of every Transformer, both good and evil, in its quest to seize the Autobot Matrix of Leadership. The movie features an all-star cast, including Orson Welles ("Citizen Kane"), Eric Idle ("Monty Python and the Holy Grail"), Leonard Nimoy ("Star Trek"), Peter Cullen ("Transformers Prime"), Judd Nelson ("The Breakfast Club"), Robert Stack ("The Untouchables") and Lionel Stander ("Hart to Hart").
