Title: Hercules - The Legendary Journeys - Season 1
Review: It took me awhile to get into this series when it first came out.I grew up on the old Hercules movies with the great Steve Reeves and later musclemen like Reg Park and Gordon Scott and was initially looking for something similar. But the 'tongue-in-cheek' approach of the series soon grew on me.The marvellous scenery including lovely, (often) scantily-clad ladies are a bonus. The references to modern-day practices such as business marketing are funny and bring to mind the approach taken in the Asterix series of comic books. The fights are of the 'sock, pow' variety and frequently end up with a whole barbeing demolished. Kevin Sorbo makes a charismatic Hercules andhas obvious appeal to the ladies (my wife thinks he's a hunk).I bought this on special and it's well worth the price. It'sgood entertainment and though not quite 5 stars, definitely deserving of 4.
