Dreamworks Animation has a bunch of the original show up on a Youtube page if you ever want to.

And people ask me why I don't remember watching He-Man back in the 80s.... because it was this terrible. God, those 80s tropes did not age well at all.
I am somewhat perplexed to see that 80s Fright Zone however, is, for lack of a better term, 'bitching', and only with S2 of the reboot did they actually bring the "matrix like" aspect back. Which I noticed because I only watched this (and S2) today. :P
Seeing 80s Catra definitely was a "wuuuuut" moment in terms of episode 4 taking a (well deserved) piss on that.
That said, and I know this is going sound like some horrible contrarian thing to most of you, is anyone else a little disappointed with it being Bow who has the two dads thing and all? And I don't mean that it didn't work (mustaaaaache) or anything, but the idea that it implies that only a LBGT-friendly man can be friends with girls.
As in: "men and women can't be friends, only gay men can be friends with women", that crap. I know there are few winning moves to make when it comes to representation, but it's kind of weird to see an attempt at representation ALSO reinforce an essentially sexist notion.
Maybe that's just me, but it felt slightly at odds with the intent there.
