I miss being a kid and not hating life
wtf
Same
Same, how I wish I could go back in the past
listen to kevins advice
Omg I just got nostalgia and yearning to go back watching this and exact same thoughts came to my mind and than i see your comment.
I just started watching it again. Reminds me of the simpler times when I was a kid. Good old 90's.
where do you watch it?
@@ownerke2 gomovies site
Me too, Im actually watching it :) Season 2.
Ive been watching Northern Exposure. Reminds me of better times. Yes the 90s ruled
Oooh it was a wonderful time
Loved this show. One of the best series of all time for sure.
What a suprise to find you here! Definitely my favourite too! I was around 5 years old when this was big hit on TV!
i agree
no way i just realised that was gggman hahaha
Hey man, how are you nowadays? Your comment is sooo old that I wanted to ask this hahaha
To this day, your statement still stayed powerfully true
It's 2023 and it is still one of the best shows ever! Kevin Sorbo bossed it perfectly. LEGEND!
One of the legendary 90s show that you won't be "DISAPPOINTED" to watch 😂
@@lordwarryl5712 I watch it at least once a year, same with LOTR. It just gets better with each season. Sorbo deserved a lot of awards for his role.
Well, for me, Kevin Sorbo will be only true Hercules :-)
Azért Dwayne Johnson (The Rock) se volt rossz...
After 12 years, I still didn't changed my opinion.
@@warrax111 well well well here I am. Greek woman and loved Hercules. Greetings from Greece and happy new year!!!!

@@christosnb8444 άντε μωρέ που θα παρεξηγηθω .αφού Μ αρέσει και πολύ η σειρά.. τα ωραία μας χρόνια...
this and Xena was my childhood. Good times, I miss it
And Buffy, and Angel. My 4 favorite shows.
It's 2022 and this is still one of the best intros of all time
This is how Thor 5 should opening.
i was so young when this came out this and xena used to be my favourite shows
Yes i was watching xena again and it reminds me this. also lost world with tree house !
Mine too, I was 5 years old when this was shown on television.
@@eleanorhogan8643 I was around 10 when this show and Xena were popular. I grew up poor in a small, remote and dusty town in South Africa, and I barely understood English. Buy Xena and Hercules were my favourite shows.
@@MosesMatsepane Mine too.
Evertime we watched I use to wish I could go in the tv and be with them. Childhood memories I miss watching as a child.
Man, take me back to 1995. Kevin Sorbo is based af as well, what a true legend.
Super based. Makes me appreciate this show even more.
The best Hercules! He kept his body in shape despite having various injuries on set in the 7 years of filming! He was steroid free 100% natural, unlike today's actors that are 150% steroids and crash diets, before and during filming..
Yep and he looked good💪💪
*Best intro to any series of all time, period*
Not just the journeys, but also this show is legendary!
True
Absolutely!
What a great time to be a kid. I'm so grateful I lived this era
Ah the good old 90's 😍 I miss this show 😔😔
"No Ancient Greek Myths were seriously harmed during the production of this series, although some stories were slightly altered for the entertainment and enjoyment of our audience."
This explains how Xena killed Mercury (the God, not the singer) crushing him with a wardrobe

This is the story of a time long ago. A time of myth and legend when the ancient Gods were petty and cruel and they plagued mankind with suffering. Only one man dared to challenge their power...Hercules. Hercules possessed a strength the world had never seen. A strength surpassed only by the power of his heart. He journeyed the Earth battling the minions of his wicked stepmother, Hera, the all-powerful Queen of the Gods. But wherever there was evil, wherever an innocent would suffer, there would be...HERCULES.
What was never addressed was that Hera hated Hercules because his name means "Glory of Hera".
@@seanakizuki That's not why Hera hated Hercules, she hated him because he reminded her of Zeus' infidelity.
@@Mhtsos_Bardas Zeus had so many bastards yet it was Hercules who suffered the most. His name after all meant something that insulted Hera.
@@seanakizuki Yeah, it means Hera's glory and Hera considered this an insult. By the way Hercules is the roman name, the greek name is Herakles.
@@seanakizuki indeed hera were jealous of Hercules and even his name shows the same. Means the one who steal hera"s glory
We grew up Well . We come back and listen to these theme songs and unlock a beautiful time in our lives the world is shit today...
This brings back so much nostalgia .
"When the gods where petty and cruel and they plagued mankind with suffering". Good to see that those guys still around
As a grown ass 38 year old......I really wana go back to the good old 90s and be a kid again .
no fucking way! i was in love with this show as a youngin i used to tape the episodes and watch them over and over
this made me so happy to see this thank you for posting this!
How do you feel about your comment 11 years ago
The new Hercules 2014 ruined it for me...they did not even try to replicate this original in the new version.
bro how are u? 13 years ago comment
They simply don't make em like this no more! We also had the likes of Mortal Kombat Conquest
Who else got the creeps, when you saw Hera's eyes, the falling peacock feather and that creepy soundeffect, when they intodruced Hera? It is still terrefying even to this day. No wonder because Sam Raimi did this series.
You're the only human being that has said that besides me
That was giving me the creeps too as a kid. And to think that Hera is the goddess of family...
Had to get the whole boxset on DVD it was hard to get but managed it great show..CLASSIC
There is many actors about Hercules Dwayne Johnson, John Henningan & Arnold Schwarzenegger... but no one is better then Kevin Sorbo!!
Childhood memories! An inspiration for me !
We use to watch these with my brother when we were kids and we always waiting when we can see all these clips... so...
You know the feeling when these intro clips, which episodes etc they have been, has been haunting you last 23 years and finally your nightmares are over.
This remains one of the great bits of theme music on TV
Very true, even after 25 years, the theme music still remained deep in my memory
true!!
I cried a bit listening to it 😅
This was and is the best embodiment of Hercules ever.
Ah Hercules, my childhood form of escapism. I remember cosplaying as Hercules for years for EVERY casual day back in primary school without so much as a drop of shame, I loved this!
My childhood memories 😭
I love Hercules forever
In the early 2000's in PNG, every Sabbath on a Saturday at 6, we would turn the TV on to this nostalgic TV Show.
Good old Tv series days 🥲👏
A Wonderful Heroic Wisdom Theme Score.
I loved this show as a kid, have to rewatch it
Ahead of it’s time.
Both Xena and Hercules had the best intros of 90s.
God I miss the 90s
This show was by far my favorite in my childhood. It was one of a kind and no other show ever captured its magic again. To this day. Xena came close but Hercules was better.
man i loved this series as a kid, still love the whole greek mythology
He's the same guy who voiced Hercules himself in GoW 3. Perfect casting.
yes man. That's awesome
Hello Brother
RIP Kevin smith
I remember watchin this when I was young. Maybe 15, maybe 14 when it first aired. The first 3 or 4 pilot episodes were 2 hours long, you remember those?
D@mn, you were already 15 back then!? And you comment is 13 yo .. I wonder how old you are right now and hopefully still alive
I have never seen Disney's Hércules, so this show and Kevin Sorbo introduced me to the character. Too bad what Kratos did to him 😢😢😢
Late Friday night watch then wcw wrestling straight after..those were the days man..
For me it was on channel 5 about 9am on Saturdays. :)
Simpler innocent times.
Our childhood was so pure.
Brings me back to the 90s 😢
The Witcher
The Witcher reminds me of this show
That's exactly the same reason I've just watched it haha
@@paultallant8274 same here lol. its crazy that the comments in this video are 11 years old
Please don’t compare this series to The Witcher. Leave that franchise out of this. Hercules is an authentic franchise on its own
ayo we wuz elves n shiet niga
For some reason I get Legendary Journey vibes from Last Kingdom too.
Damn, I feel so old... Now I'm looking for my spear to hunt mammoth.
This intro brings a tear to my eye. I'm Greek. Ever since I can remember, my grandmother would sit me on her lap as a 4-year old toddler and tell me the stories of Herakles. The stories of a man who was blessed with immense, divine strength due to his divine heritage, but still used his brains more than his brawn.
How he thought of burning the stumps of the severed Hydra heads so they don't grow back. How he realised he could not damage the Nemean Lion due to its impenetrable hide, so he resorted to using his bare hands to strangle it. He then proceeded to skin the Nemean Lion and use its impenetrable hide as his armour. He dipped his arrows in the Hydra's corpse, infusing them with venom, making them super deadly, even capable of killing other divine beasts. How he beat Antaeus, a Giant, son of the god Poseidon and the Titan Gaia, by out-smarting him. He realised that while the Giant stood on solid ground, he was empowered by his own mother, Gaia. So what does our boy Herakles do? He literally lifts him over his head and throws him in a river. Away from the ocean and the seas (Poseidon's domain), away from the Earth itself (Gaia's domain), he got the giant de-powered enough where he could wrestle him & beat him. If that's not proof of insane battle IQ, then I don't know what is.
Herakles is the O.G superhero. The one with the power to move mountains, who still uses his ingenuity and his brains when the situation calls for it. The man who chose the path of good, of righteousness, when the whole world (literally) was against him. Hell, his story BEGINS with him being possessed by the Furies, murdering his own wife & kids, and seeking redemption from the Oracle of Delphi. He starts off on the lowest point a man can start at, as the murderer of his own family. Yet, through his Labours, and his close friendship with his friend Iolaus, he persevered. He even went on to help Jason and the rest of the Argonauts on the suicide mission to recover the Golden Fleece. He persevered so well that upon his death, Zeus offered him a spot on Olympus.
And this show captured ALL of that. With utmost respect to the O.G Greek myths & legends, they made this a show for children. A show where the teachings of the Ancient Greek myth were transferred to the next generation, 3,000 years later. It makes me so happy that so many children around the world learned & enjoyed the stories of Herakles, just like I enjoyed them when my grandmother was telling them to me as a child. Thank you Kevin Sorbo and thank you New Zealand for producing such an amazing series.
"wherever there was evil, wherever innocent were suffering there would be Hercules" lmao
I share the same birthday as Kevin Sorbo, and for that, I couldn't have felt more honored.
Peak 90s television
same here, I miss this show :(.
Yess - Kevin Sorbo!! Yess
Kevin sorbo is the real hercules
Man I loved this show as a kid!! I still no all the words and music and sound effects of this opening sequence lol it seems much cheesier now =D Thanks for putting this up it makes me happy!
Me too! Glad to see many fans hers
@@Fenrispro yup
Kevin Sorbo the true Hercules!
Big part of my childhood watching this on channel 5 every week 🙂
Hercules and Xena I miss Saturday night tv as a kid
This is so corny, but in the best possible way.
The best
Probably what people will say about Game of Thrones in 25 years (plus the bitter aftertaste of an absolutely terrible ending to the show)
@@houstonhelicoptertours1006 Agreed
I was around 11 when this show and Xena were popular in the mid 90s. I grew up poor in a small, remote and dusty town in South Africa, and I barely understood English. But Xena and Hercules were my favourite shows.

Before Game of thrones, their Was Hercules
I Love Greece it's a Wonderful Country with a Very Great History !
School bell rings, brisk walk home. Switch on TV, watch Swat kats, Sinbad, Hercules, Xena, Robocop, Ninja Robots.
Used to watch this all the time used to love mad ioalus
Kevin Sorbo is the best TV Hercules... the GOAT.
Frickin LOVED this show

@@dmitryibambelbi4583 yeah
Series memorable when i was kid🤣.

This and X Files, yeah
I wish I can Live in Greece!
Dam I miss my childhood I still got some of his tapes on vcr defs pulling them out later
Just this opening is better than GoT
The Game of Thrones of my childhood
Even that as a kid I use to love the series of Hercules now as a grown-up I think the commercial is better the the series itself !!! :)
YES! I gave 300th like. Best show ever!
Hehe me too :D
Herc & Xena came on when I was 3, and they've been my heroes ever since! (And they must have fuelled my obsession for Greek & Roman Mythology :P)
