Highly Overrated But Still Good

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

I remember waking up at the crack of dawn early Saturday mornings just to catch this on ABC and airing simultaneously in syndication. Anyway, I was impressed on how many celebrities signed on to voice characters, however, I did note that two of my personal favorites were missing, "The Golden Girls'" Bea Arthur and Broadway's Bernadette Peters, but I digress.I enjoy still enjoy the show which now airs on the Toon Disney Channel and I recommend it for the celebrity cameo appearances.

....and one that's *way* more than halfways intelligent- indeed one needs to be half way through highschool to get half the jokes- and a few years of college don't hurt either. Hilarious,wonky, bittersweet and adorable the series follows the adventures of young teen Herc and his friends as they grow up during their high school years with surprising realism and candor for what looks at first to be a standard Saturday morning kiddie cartoon. Take the time to discover it and you''ll find it's possibly the best series Disneys ever done with Broadway quality show tunes and over 160 TV and movie guest star voices ranging from Garrison Keillor to William Shatner. James Woods and French Stewart fans are in for a special treat.Disneys Hercules the TV Series

I wish I had watched this series in it's first run, but I figured "Oh great, another badly done TV series" (I was still bitter about Aladdin and Gargoyles being cancelled). Then, directly before it went off the air I found these sound clips from the show that were so funny that I decided to watch it. I loved it. The show is full of vague references to Greek myths and plays. The more Greek you've been made to study, the more amusing Hercules is.

I'm completely blown away at the cast list of this very funny, clever show. How in the world did they get (almost literally) every major living star to do a voice? I'm particularly impressed by how faithful (mostly) the stories are to the Greek and Roman sources
