He-Man and the Masters of the Universe

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.

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.

Because it's a complete reboot, I'm giving it a lot of slack. If I were a kid today, I would probably love it. As an adult who grew up with the original, it's a bit disappointing.

They do give reasonable story lines to some of the changes they made, if a little cliché at times. I don't know that the cyberpunk feel is right for the property. It's grown on me over the 10 episodes, but it's still a little weird. It really bothers me that He-Man skips leg day. EVERY DAY IS LEG DAY! And the wannabe "imagine dragons" theme song is just awful.

Also, making the shift from a hero-focused story to an ensemble team story, somewhat reminiscent of power rangers dynamics, feels odd.

This is not at all the He-Man I grew up with, and it's not how I would have done a reboot. I don't believe we needed a hard reboot like this. The 200X series was the right way to do a reboot (and it had things I didn't love as well...) But it's not terrible, and it's orders of magnitude better than Kevin Smith's travesty.

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.

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.
