Hercule contre Arès

I love to watch reruns of this show! Ryan looks hot in leather!! I'm glad to see that WAM plays the reruns. I known that this show is aimed for younger views but I can't resist watching it every time it's on. You don't need to be a master in Greek history to understand this show, which is great because I'm not.

I have seen this TV show and I really like it. I enjoy it because it is the adventures that Hercules had growing up. If you like Hercules Legendary Journeys you should watch this show!This show also has cute guys in it!

Developed and produced by Robert Tapert and Sam Raimi, we follow the titular Young Hercules (Ryan Gosling), in his prequel years prior to the more adult focused series Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. From the same universe as Xena: Princess Warriors, but now for a considerably younger audience, the series puts (now) heartthrob Gosling as the lead, as he gets into continuous trouble with his father Zeus, the vengeful Hera, and of course the angry Ares and all this goons. Hercules is joined by his schoolmates Iolaus and Jason, three magnificent dude-bros out on their like totally awesome adventures man. Very lighthearted throughout, the shows really silly, lots of acrobatics and rubber weapons, and foley artists making the most ridiculous bangs and clangs every fight. It feels much like the kids genre of its time, almost as inspired by the likes of Power Rangers than Hercules, but it does what it wanted to I guess. Unless you're a big Gosling fan, or just love campy tv, I wouldn't likely recommend.

The television series of "Young Hercules" was not a useless one. From my perspective, it was a good show for the younger audience, especially considering it was called YOUNG Hercules. The actors did well in their roles and the show was great for kids. The show was not meant to be as fantastic or awe-inspiring as were the originals, it was meant for younger people. It is an interesting show when one is twelve or thirteen. "Young Hercules" was a means of gaining a wider audience. The story lines had to remain simple enough for children, not complicated as in the adult versions. So when one comments on how foolish something is, they should really look at it in order to understand it better. And after all, it is not serious - it's mythology.

part of a fashion about Ancient Greek hero, it can not be original or surprising. its virtue is the freshness, the inspired manner to create a series for kids in which the adventures are expressions of basic values and the spirit of age. it is not really serious or dramatic or exotic. but each of that sins is important for a coherent message. because it is an introduction in the universe of myth and the art to give the perfect language for present it is not a small detail. so, an useful series. for a public who search the emotions of great events, who preserves the resources of imagination and for who the life/word is a conquest of every day.short, a nice work. interesting as class tool and for the definition of start in life for a great hero.
