He-Man and the Masters of the Universe

This maybe good to a newer generation I'm not sure but after just seeing the animation and look of the characters I decided to not even watch an episode. Looks like a lazy but flashy attempt at a reboot.

Despite all the changes to the original He-Man this is not as bad as the awful "Revelation". This is a complete new version of MOTU and even as someone who grew up with classic He-Man I can accept that.

It was fun to watch and I don't mind the changes they made to the story, but I don't like what they did to the look of the characters. If they would actually resemble the classic MOTU characters I would like this show a lot, but I don't like the new look at all. Only He-Man, Skeletor and Battle-Cut have resemblance to what we know and loved.

Maybe todays kids like this - I don't know. We'll see how much toys they sell with this.

But unlike "Revelation" this is less of an insult to old fans, because it is willingly directed to a new audience.

That being said: Fun watchable kids show, with hardly any resemblance to the classic He-Man characters.

Unfortunately the title song is weak and not very catchy.

First of all, I'm 40 years old, and grew up loving the original show, toys and comics. It all stopped when they made The New Adventures of He-Man. I liked the 2002. Reboot, but mostly in nostalgic reasons. It didn't had the whole original atmosphere in it to bring new kids to like it. Beside the visual style, everything was wrong with Kevin Smit's version. I have 6 year old kid that couldn't manage to watch even the first episode of MOTU: Revelation.

This show is my kids new favourite one. I personaly at first had isues with the new cyber punk style, but the writing was great and they mostly made hits with reimagining the characters. The comic elements were on spot, at least for the younger audience.

Most important thing is that this reboot is the most likable for kids of all last 3 combined. For shows like this target audience should be 5 to 10 years old, because this is the only way to keep the franchise alive. The ones that complain are mostly the guys my age, from which most of them stopped watching cartoons decades ago.

From all 80's shows that were made after toy collections, that are still alive with new kids watching and toys and merchendise still selling, only Transformers and TMNT are left, because they always reimagined them for the new generation of kids.

I hope this reboot will save the franchise, and I'm sorry that kids can't vote on this page, because the average vote would be much higher.

Having grown up watching the original, I didn't care for this show at first. I didn't like the first few episodes because they were more Troll Hunters and Clone Wars than Masters of the Universe. I think it wasn't until around the 4th episode that I started to like the show. It finally felt like MOTU, but in a different universe.

I recommend giving this show a chance. Battle Cat is the best part of the show. The whinny, insecure He-Man, not so much.

After the disappointing and divisive "MOTU Revelations" earlier in the year I was certainly apprehensive about this new take on the He-Man franchise.

The art style and re-working of certain characters concerned me as an "OG fan" even if it was clear this version would be aimed at a much younger audience.

But not only was this show a hit with my 7 year old son, but I found myself really enjoying it too!

As is quite often the case with most nostalgic properties and comic book adaptations, there seems to be a current trend of "subverting" expectations, gender and sexuality politics being shoehorned in and well, just changes for the sake of making changes.

What I loved about this show is I really didn't feel any of that. Yes Ram Man has been gender swapped and Teela and The Sorceress (The Eldress now) have been race swapped, but I honestly felt these changes served to strengthen the show instead of detracting from it and brought some more balance to the cast of characters which in this day and age can only help to attract that all important new generation of fans.

The main reason I liked this show way more than Kevin Smith's effort was that although the emphasis is on teamwork and family, He-Man is still front and centre in his own show as he should be.

He was proactive, caring and above all else GOOD.

I'm sure this version of MOTU will also be divisive among the core fanbase but I believe the spirit of the original was upheld and properly respected.

I hope this show is a hit with kids and we can all enjoy more He-Man in many years to come.

We have the power.
