Hercules
On Syndication, ABC
A bright, energetic animated adventure comedy that follows a young hero's training through episodic labors, grounded in warmth and humor rather than genuine peril.
Follow Herc's many labors during the years he spent training on how to be a hero under the tutelage of satyr Phil. Many of the Olympian Gods and Goddesses pay visit to the young hero-to-be and help or hinder him in his new adventures.
