There is a good message in here. Have kids for the right reasons, be an involved parent, and love the mother of your children. The cool part is that Kevin Sorbo has these values in real life.
@@DavidMartinez-ce3lp they did actually but each Greek city state had its own laws on how they handle it. In this scenario however they want to have his baby not his hand in marriage
The introduction of Salmoneus in this episode is one of its most significant highlights. Gotta love Sal. Kevin Sorbo and Robert Trebor had really good chemistry.
I agree. I love Salmoneus, but he disappeared in later years. Frankly, Hercules Season One was my favorite: the show was bubbling with potential, myth and magic.
@@LordHyena, I think season 4 was the worst of Herc & just about every show. (Not Xena, for that season 6 was the worst.) Also season 6 for Hercules cause it was so short.
Based on an actual Greek myth, but altered so that Herc doesn’t actually agree to impregnate the 50 daughters of the king. Herc doesn’t want to be an absentee father.
the original uncensored Hercules might have no problem with having that many wives, after he became a God that is, though he was still quite a ladies man even as a demigod
Well, he wasn't an absent father before. He was there for his three kids, until Hera took that away. Of course, having kids by 50 different women would be an absolute tough job, so I can see anyone (almost) declining to take that role.
Original Greek epics of Hercules, HERA drove him to madness so terrible he butchered his own wife and children , when HERA'S magical madness wore off he realized what he had done and then nearly went insane , , , but I enjoy this TV show version a lot more , Kevin Sorbo is a legend in his own right 👍😸
My advice for Herc would've been to pace yourself. Don't go for all 50 at once, just have 2 or 3 a day, and enjoy the best month of your life. And if you're really a one woman kind of man, then just take them one at a time.
Herc is a great example of a gentlemen.. He's all man when comes to fighting..getting violent to help others..doing what needs to be done. And he's gentle with those who require it children and women...he could've been savage at these women who were throwing themselves at him..but he let them down gently .. A true Gentlemen..not much of those around today.
Not an unreasonable belief, as there would be many benefits in having the children of a demigod, especially if those children were also the grandchildren of Zeus as well
Hercules in the Show: I can't sleep with any of you because I'm waiting for the right person 😇 Herakles in the Actual Story: fathered 50 sons from the 50 daughters 😎
What a classic. I loved this show. I watched it with my dad all the time. I figured this version of Hercules is more like Paul Bunion. He was a real man of the people who seemed to represent what the best person could be. I get that to market a show like this they needed to make Herc a likable hero that modern audiences could get behind. Heracles really would have not resonated with people today.
"so that's why dad wanted us to have his children" yep he knew you'd never get that demibaby batter, it was his final plan to protect all 50 daughter's virture.
I remember watching this as a kid. I'm so innocent back then that I didn't even get why those pretty girls is chasing Hercules 😅 Instead, I'm thinking how agile those girls were that they able to chase Hercules wherever he was 🤣
@Skeeter Valentine Xena might or might not be a lesbian, but its very debatable as the series never officially said so, and she has been intimate with more men than women. Even her relationship with Gabrielle was up in the air, but its all a matter of opinion and perspective really. 🙂
Eh. Iolaus would try to please about the first thrifty and do the 2nd 20 from recuperating since one man fifty woman with one stick. Not a good time back in the ancient Greek times
I'm so disillusioned right now. With all the crime, the poverty, the pandemic, the war in the Ukraine, homeless people, and terrorism I've lost sight of the true victim of society which happens to be Hercules.
Zena was the most vigorous against Hercules, she was a meditator and could track and keep him threatened. She was against him in the first episode and in the last when her group killed his new wife and almost him. These woman are somewhere, kill, destroy, annihilate them: track them and keep them threatened.
The 50 daughters of the king actually had an astrological symbolism since they talked about hecate wich in greek means 100th and half of it is 50 just a coincidence no way man lol.
They were all princesses from the same King father, so they are well taken care of. In the myths he actually does bang them and get them all pregnant at the same time.
Hercules tasks them. He tasks them and they shall have him. They'll chase him round' the Moons of Niba and round' the Antares Malestrom and round' Perdition's flames before they give him up.
I remember this scene from my childhood and when they said he was "so sensitive." lol This show was known for having weekly babes almost like bond girls. I loved Tawnie Kitaen and Lucy Liu in this how. The She-Demon was pretty cool too.
Heracles in mythology had many children, hundreds. As a demigod, the personification of strength and virility, he spread his seeds. :D His children were secured; kings or tribal leaders often offered him their own daughters to impregnate them. These girls/women were rich, had property, time, servants/educators and were also usually later married to some noble. So the upbringing and provision of Heracles' children were the best in their time. Something like the absence of a "biological" father and sadness, or complexes from that - that was completely out of place (that's today's mentality, back then it was completely different). Those descendants did not suffer in any way - physically or psychologically/mentally (on the contrary). His children grew up in the palace - where they had also their grandfather/king as their role model. Herakles had also "own, official" children with his wives (Megara and Deianira - and maybe Omphale), with whom he spent significantly more time. :D But also he was on the journeys... Plus something like "absentee father" was something very common for much of history... However, there were usually enough male role models in the household - if not "biological" fathers, then "adoptive" or grandfathers, brothers/brothers-in-law and others (because households, cohabitation, children raising and society at all used to function differently in history; including mentality). Hercules - the show - is good, but for entertainment. It has nothing to do with myths, Greece or anything like that. In addition, the whole thing is taken from today's society and its view of the world (plus fun, parody, etc.). BTW Heracles grew up with a good ("adoptive") father.
0:48 The funny thing is as these ladies are running down the hill at Hercules, one grabs her shirt/bra cause it was actually starting to fall off almost exposing her breasts and they left it in figuring it would be funnier.
The casting director for this show deserves a Emmy just for the fact they knew how to find a billion hot women. If you turned away for a few seconds, you would miss some amazing looking model that was cast in even the most small role, it was crazy. Kevin knew this, he married one lol....
I just get a crush in the head sister lol but I didn't know Kevin sorbo's wife was one of the sisters I knew that his wife appeared in a episode being a guest character I guess

it was a common practice back then for the best males to breed with your daughters for political and security purposes..

To be fair Hercules was one of the original anime heroes he just wasn't animated.
