He-Man, She-Ra and The Masters of The Universe - TV Shows Thread
Posted: Sun Nov 13, 2022 8:06 am
A while ago, in the MOTU Toy Thread, someone mentioned to me there was one for the shows (Being possibly the biggest/only NA fan on the Forum). I can't now remember who that was or when it was said (I spent the last hour trying to find it). But when I eventually searched the boards, I couldn't find anything beyond a Revelations thread that went way off-topic. From earlier in the year. So here we go:
Sound off!
For my own history, New Adventures was "my" He-Man. I was a child of the 90's. One that loves both robots (obviously) and space faring narrative. In spite of having a few toys, my memory/exposure to the Filmation years was vague. About ten years ago, I did watch some of the boxset through with an Ex. To me, with no nostalgia goggles attached, it's largely unwatchable. Like the 60's Marvel cartoons. But some of them did have a certain charm to them. I imagine it didn't help that I watched and liked 200X beforehand. So I just saw Filmation as the inferior prototype to that. But New Adventures ticked more boxes for me than any other MOTU show to date. It makes me a considerable outlier to the fanbase, I'm sure. But I'm happy with that.
To date however, I haven't seen any show since 200X.
