Nathan continues his hosting duties for part 2 of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe! Embark on a time-traveling adventure as we look on in horror at the 90s "New Adventures" iteration that may have had its heart in the right place, but missed the mark by a wide margin. Then, we'll leap ahead to dissect the bold narrative choices of "Masters of the Universe: Revelation" and its sequel. Controversy? Check. Plot twists? Double-check. And we'll weigh in on whether the new layers added to our Eternian heroes and villains enhance or tarnish the legacy of the franchise we grew up with.
As our cosmic journey comes to an end, we pay homage not just to the Power Sword-wielding hero, but also to the broader world of fandom. Touching on the age-old Star Trek vs. Star Wars debate, we champion the cultural titans that shaped our nerdy hearts. And for a final nostalgic roundhouse kick, we'll pit the charm of '80s He-Man against today's animated offerings, asking if the new generation will ever experience that same unbridled joy—or if they'll even care to seek it out. Join us for this kaleidoscope of pop culture reverence, critique, and everything in between.
