First of all, I'm 40 years old, and grew up loving the original show, toys and comics. It all stopped when they made The New Adventures of He-Man. I liked the 2002. Reboot, but mostly in nostalgic reasons. It didn't had the whole original atmosphere in it to bring new kids to like it. Beside the visual style, everything was wrong with Kevin Smit's version. I have 6 year old kid that couldn't manage to watch even the first episode of MOTU: Revelation.
This show is my kids new favourite one. I personaly at first had isues with the new cyber punk style, but the writing was great and they mostly made hits with reimagining the characters. The comic elements were on spot, at least for the younger audience.
Most important thing is that this reboot is the most likable for kids of all last 3 combined. For shows like this target audience should be 5 to 10 years old, because this is the only way to keep the franchise alive. The ones that complain are mostly the guys my age, from which most of them stopped watching cartoons decades ago.
From all 80's shows that were made after toy collections, that are still alive with new kids watching and toys and merchendise still selling, only Transformers and TMNT are left, because they always reimagined them for the new generation of kids.
I hope this reboot will save the franchise, and I'm sorry that kids can't vote on this page, because the average vote would be much higher.
