My youth was all about He-Man, Transformers, GI Joe and what have you. Looking back, I guess I was a bit too young to fully understand those shows, but I loved them (and the toys!) nonetheless. So when News broke out that there was going to be a new Masters of the Universe series, I was excited. Especially since Kevin Smith was involved, who made a couple of my favourite movies.
I read that he was under heavy fire for making this show. I don't really understand why, though. I didn't read up on the drama, I just started watching the show and although there was a lot less He-Man than I was expecting, it's a very decent show. A bit of nostalgia, cool animations, an interesting story focusing more on Teela... the second half was a bit too chaotic and leaning too heavily on the "together we stand as one"-kinda thing, but I enjoyed watching it. Plus it had Fisto saying he would like to fist Skeletor...! Can't go wrong with that line, right?
