She-Ra And The Princesses Of Power: Seasons 1-3

I found She-Ra and the Princesses of Power on Netflix at random and thought I'd give it a shot. I had fond memories of the 80s version of both She-Ra and He-Man, so I wasn't holding out much hope - man, was I wrong!This is a brilliant series with multi-faceted characters, fun design and a plot that weaves through episodes instead of following the old 'bad guy of the week' formula. It's also really refreshing to see the other princesses be different body types and ethnicities, as the old one had all the women looking pretty much exactly the same as each other.Adora is an endearing hero, trying her best to do right but plagued by universal insecurities of self-doubt. Just as fascinating is her ex-best friend/antagonist Catra, who has her own flipside journey into spiralling villainy. The secondary characters are all equally well-rounded. Glimmer is a sort of foil to Catra this time around, and Scorpia is probably the sweetest villain sidekick since Kronk. The other princesses are a lot of fun, particularly as an ensemble. My favourite is probably Mermista, who has the sarcastic edgy valley girl persona down perfectly.Sadly this is not the full series - the final part is yet to air on Netflix so it isn't included here. Still, if you don't have Netflix and you want a fun show with a surprising amount of pathos, you won't be disappointed. I wish this is the She-Ra show I got to grow up with!

Amazing diverse characters, amazing LGBTQ+ representation. Makes you laugh and definitely makes you cry. I absolutely love love love this show!!

The picture quality is terrible, poor resolution and pixelated.

When it comes to how not to produce an animated series, She-Ra and the Princesses of Power is a prime example of how not to make one! There is no She-Ra in this show, it features a girl who dons a cosplay outfit each ep, and that's it! The main focus of the series is the catgirl called Catra, the rest of the characters, including the supposed title character, are of zero consequence, they are simply there to fill screen time, along with pretty much the rest of the show.Despite a few backgrounds for establishing shots, the show is incredibly poorly produced, bland and unimaginative character designs, inconsistent and irrelevant characters, incoherent and inconsistent plot, no story, diabolical dialogue, poor world building, drawn out far beyond welcome unfunny jokes, terrible character interaction, actionless, horrendous animation and terrible to so-so voice acting! This whole show just ultimately reeks of incompetence!Forget what it says on the box, this is simply the complete episode collection of season 1. It was produced as one season, the episodes are numbered as season 1, ie 101-126, it was split into three 'parts' to extend its release schedule, as releasing all 26 episodes at once would have meant Netflix would lose money from everyone binge watching for a couple of weeks, then forgetting about it and reduce the amount of people tuning in when the second season, episodes 227-252, would see release on Netflix the year later!When it comes to the bar of standards, this show doesn't even meet any of the basic requirements. The only merit the show has, is the fact that is does show us how not to produce an animated show, so now we can hopefully get a professional team in to produce a series of quality, but after this, anything produced that is distinctly average, would be a vast improvement!

Don’t watch this trash. Just watch the classic 80s cartoon instead.

Great dvd. Just what my son wanted
