Show is getting review bombed and hate from hardcore fans. I knew before release Tesla was main protagonist of show and not He-man. I guess people didn’t follow the news and didn’t help that Kevin smith lied to fans when plot of the show was leaked online.

Should Kevin Smith's credibility for his lie? Yes, because he promised a He-Man show and this is, very much, NOT a show about He-Man, or even prince Adam for that matter. (At least Part 1 sure wasn't). But IS THE SHOW BAD? NO It’s still good, Without He-Man in the picture for most of it. Beside Tesla(Jesus Christ she’s awful) everyone else gets to shine (Evil-Lyn and Orko in particular were my highlight for part 1) and the show actually feels like there are stakes.

Part 2 seems to be setting up fixes for the things Part 1 did get wrong or so I hope.

I like how you keep calling her Tesla lol. I haven't gotten far but I think its good so far also.

I enjoyed it for the most part, but then I didn't go into it with any sort of expectations. Only complaint I have is that I was not a fan of SMG's voice acting. Everyone else absolutely killed it.

After all my hype for this, I've been debating watching it now that it's out, maybe I'll wait until the 2nd part is available too. Like with any long time series with various iterations you're bound to get the Star Wars effect; people wanted something and didn't get it. Though I didn't watch it, I recall there being similar backlash of disappointment at the release of the pervious She-Ra show. Eventually people who like a show stay and those who don't, well, don't.

this was really enjoyable. wife was watching and i came in at the start of the 2nd episode, and the 'no glove, no love' joke. had to roll it back.

**Elcura** · 2021-07-24 15:31

The tone is a bit all over the place but overall I like it. Will see what part 2 has to offer

**Eurell** · 2021-07-25 10:51

Didn't even realize there was a thread for this lol. Really enjoyed the show with few complaints.

Spoiler: show

Finally watched this and really enjoyed it. Liked how it felt like a continuation to the 80's series I grew up with. Found the perfect summary of the internet over it.

I'm an audience and I thought it was great. What's the complaint even?

**Zealot** · 2021-08-15 09:38

My only note is that how awesome would it have been if in that very last scene they had Skeletor's VA morph from Mark Hamill to Frank Langella. I'm pretty sure he was still alive during the making of this.

From what I've gathered, it's Teela and her new hairdo.

To me, it sounds very similar to the Last of Us 2 Abby hate train.

Haven't watched it myself, but have certainly seen enough of the typical incel/anti-feminist rhetoric about it floating around on the twitter. Dangle a woman with any sort of muscularity in front of those sorts and it's basically, "SHE LOOKS LIKE A MAN! THAT SHOULDN'T EXIST"

Not that I like that hairstyle on anyone, but I'm also not going to write scathing, long-winded narratives about it on every platform I haunt.

**Zealot** · 2021-08-16 10:39

Personally I just don't like the trope of woman cutting hair = character development.

Did this factor into your FF9 opinions?

**Zealot** · 2021-08-17 10:25

It actually did bother me a little, when Garnet said "remember me as I was" and then proceeds to change nothing except her hair.

Its 100% a part of that. "She looks butch!" "She has that stupid side-hair!" "She's not a big-tiddy demure waif in a long-flowing dress, even though she wasn't that way in the 80's!"
