I would have given a 10/10 rating to this show only if this new series of He-Man would have reached its conclusion.I haven't seen the first series of the show or to be more precise, I tried but couldn't instead I preferred to reminiscence my childhood by watching the latter and improved series again.The Season 1 keeps you hanging but the second season of this series just takes you on another new level...It was really unfortunate that the creators had to discontinue the series. Still it's very much worth watching and feels like the Original Fantastical World of the HEROES and THE MASTERS OF THE UNIVERSE.

For Everyone out there that forgot they hyped this show up at least a year before it's PILOT ever aired. It lasted about a year maybe 2. A Horrible GBA game came out and it disappeared.I've Always Been a Huge fan of He-Man and this show never disappointed It was good although it was kinda strange how in the 80's he was He-Man, and in this one he TRANSFORMS into He-Man I knew BattleCat but I also Knew Prince Adam Did not, He just hid that he was in fact He-Man, anyways Great Animation They even created new stuff in the show:Battle Armor a new shield some other stuff. The voices were great.Animation very top-notch no details spared. I always Kept thinking teela would sooner or later catch on that Prince Adam ran away and there comes He-Man. There was much character turmoil,conflict and change. Adam always struggled with his alter-ego what Hero didn't? But then again Cartoon Network as soon as it became a hit torched it they moved it to 6am and then yanked it for what?That crappy transformers remake?They wouldn't know what to do with a real hit, that's why DragonBall is pushed under everything else and that's the show that actually made em popular but whatever they're better after 11 p.m If this ever comes to DVD rent it watch it you'll love it all over again

I was a huge fan of the he-man cartoon in the 80s, but being so young i didn't get to see as much as i would've liked. This 21st century version of the Masters of the universe cartoon is a great re-make of the old cartoon and better overall i have to say. The storyline and plot in this cartoon is much better than the original and the action sequences are a lot more explosive and entertaining. Remember the old MOTU cartoon was made in the early 80s and cartoons have come a long way since then, so the animation is advanced better and the characters are much more detailed and better looking.The new cartoon is not as goof ball and childish as the old cartoon and the majority of the characters are seen in more than one episode and get to be involved in the plot and unlike the 80s version this cartoon is not merely a vehicle in which to promote the sale of Mattel toys as it was the case before.I like the fact that all of the old characters from the 80s version that were in like one or two episodes then had an action figure made out of them, do actually appear in a few episodes and have their character developed more than in the original.Villains like Skeletor and Evil-Lyn are more cunning and evil than the goofy roles they had before and I'm glad that this cartoon rarely resorts to the slapstick action that so often spoiled the original.As i said i do think this is a better cartoon overall, but i do like the original version of the He-man character more than this one, he looked more brawnier and had a better voice and i like the old transformation sequence where prince Adam turns into he-man better than the new one. But this cartoon is much better written and its nice to see that effort is put into the story and the dialogue. I enjoy this version of the Masters of the Universe cartoon very much and its great to see it being done the way it shouldve been done in the 80s, but all cartoons were goofy back then anyway, I'm over the moon that its back for a whole new generation of viewers to enjoy, i just hope it sticks around for a few years.

If you loved the old He-man then this show will appeal to you. It's got all the same characters, but the character development and plot is crisper. There is more internal conflict. And more inter character relationships. This series is filled with drama between the characters you loved in the 80's. And the animation looks better. Personally, I don't think the way the fights are animated, a sort of cheap dragon ball z type reuse of the same 'flying' shots over and over again. It's not bad, it just gets old if you watch them too often. But over all it's really quite enjoyable. Since this post is referring to the pilot movie in particular. I must say it's a great story that was never told in the original series. It tells how Skeletor came to be. And how he got that cute skeletal face of his. It give backround that you've been dying to know since the early 80's. It's worth watching for that alone. ANd it tells how Prince Adam first became He-man. Which was also left out of the 80's show. Watch it. You will not be disappointed.
