Been rewatching it on The Hub.
Having learned a bit about proper Greek legends and folklore, I find I have to shove it all aside to enjoy the show. The worst offender in that regard being that they used Heracles's Roman name instead of his Greek name.
Still a funny show though.

Well remember it IS a fantasy show that craws inspiration from the legends instead of actually basing itself on them. That and more Americans know the name Hercules than Herakles.

That's why I shove my knowledge of those things aside. :3 Besides, Disney's version was MUCH worse in terms of accuracy.

Of course, the whole stump burning thing would have been too gory for kids.

Disney has been surprisingly in character with their original Winnie-the-Pooh stories though.
