The following is a list of episodes for the 1980s animated series He-Man and the Masters of the Universe. Production order The following is a list of episodes of the television series. (Note: the episodes are listed here in production order, which differs from the broadcast order.) The first script commissioned was "The Cosmic Comet". The pilot episode "Diamond Ray of Disappearance" (MU004), was the fourth script approved but the first episode produced and intended to air first, which indeed it did in the U.K., U.S. and many markets. Season 1 (1983) Season 2 (1984) Broadcast order There is a lot of confusion over the exact order of the episodes of the series. The production codes allocated appear to indicate nothing more than the formal clearance of an episode's script. Often, this order is directly contradicted on screen. For example, "The Return of Orko's Uncle" (MU023) has an earlier production code than the introduction of "Orko's Favourite Uncle" (MU027).
