Wtf Uranus is lord of the universe, not Zeus! :| Gaea is earth and she hpooked up with Uranus to have 3 100-armed ones, the cyclopses, and the 12 Titans :|
@woce100 Lol, chill out dude (or dudette, whatever), it's a cartoon, it's make-believe just enjoy the show... most ancient greek gods didn't even know what manogamy was either but I don't hear anybody getting all picky about that!! XP
Toon Disney ruled! these are the shows that made disney what it is. i really used to love watching disney channel and it's shows but now it's gotten so wack and boring i'd rather watch the LifeTime channel ---____---
lol how can zeus and Hera meet (fisrt time) like they never seen each other? ppl forget tht ther brother and sister, somthing tht disney likes to leave out
it is complicated Alcmene is believed to be his mother. ANd Hera was believed to ahve want to kill him, but than I read that sometimes she is his mother or took care of him. If any on knows the exact answer please leave me a comment.
The real myth goes that Zeus cheated on Hera and pretended to be Alcmene's husband for three days and got her pregnant with Hercules. Hera got really angry after she found out but in some versions the other goddess tricked Hera into breast feeding Herc when he was sick. When she realized who he was she pulled him off and her milk sprayed making the Milky Way.
@Tatanyablue Also with Zeus and Hera. Zeus morphed into a bird to watch Hera (his own sister) from a tree and then ends up raping her... Something like that.
@XxDestineyMansonxX ... Hercules is the son of Alcmene and Zeus. In disguise Zeus visited Alcmene as her husband Amphitryon and in the process ended up impregnating her. Pretty much watch Tatanablue said. Dont like how the Titans arent protrayed as gods on Hercules.
In this series, they mixed the Greek pantheon with the Norse and Egyptian ones. Weird! Nemesis and Hercules deal with Bastet, Horus, and Ra, and Zeus and the other Greeks deal with Loki and Thor. The Egyptians were in "The Romans," and the Norses were in "Twilight of the Gods."
Well wikipedia has info on almost everything, but I don't know how good the greek mythology pages are (having never read them). I do have a cool book on mythology called "D'aulaires' Book of Greek Myths", maybe you can find that at your library.
@MWolfL I used to own that book when I was little! It was one of my favorites! Actually pretty informative and accurate considering I read it when I was a kid.

he forgot his anaversry :o< that would be imposable thats not in the in the history books lol xD THE LAYBORS HE"S STARTING THEM :D !!!!! he had fifteen right?
after taking a mythology class and learning something about greek mythology, it's kind of hard to watch this because the inaccuracies are kind of bothering me
this is a fun clever cartoon aimed at 3 to 11 year old children {who dont care}and their parents who can recognize the inaccuracies and laugh at them.You need a very good knowledge of the myths and an excellent sense of humour to appreciate the show.
yes i understand the premise of the show as well as the targeted audience and the fact that adultery and infidelity are inappropriate in a children's cartoon. i never said the show should stay truer to the myths, I just said the inaccuracies KIND OF bug me, PERSONALLY. I don't know why my feelings about this cartoon should affect you
Oh they dont. It just sounded like you didnt understand.Unfortunately the show flopped largely because most people Couldnt take the myth changes and all that clever wit and writing went down the tubes.Thats why TD is now 95% Power Rangers and Disney no longer tries to make anything of any real quality.
Well actually in the real myth he did tame the man-eating mares as one of his 12 labors. Just explaining not being mean! I love the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series too!
That is so awesome that they have Betty White playing the voice of Hestia. You know, now that I have learned some of the Greek Mythology stories, I find it weird between the relationship of Zeus and Hera, yes they are husband and wife, but they are brother and sister, of course they don't mention it in the film and cartoons, because man, if I had learned that as a kid my mind would have been warped!
Betty White as Hestia is perfict lol she was considered the nicest goddess and to be played by Betty i wish Hestia looked older but she was a maden goddss i think
@DisneyGirlJeannie92 No one was starting a religious debate!! But yes, the Bible has been edited and rewritten several times over the centuries, most notably under the reigh of King James II of England, who smoothed over the rough parts.Just like Bullfinth cleaned up and codified the myths in {1824??} I think. Before he came along the literature of mythology was extremely disorganized.
Why did switchfootdude224's comment get negative ratings? switchfootdude224 is RIGHT about the actual Greek myth! Zeus had an affair with Alcmene and she bore Hercules. If parents have a problem with the actual stories, TOO BAD. They existed for THOUSANDS of YEARS before Disney gave us their Hercules movie. So back off and respect switchfootdude224 who knows his Greek myths!
yes, and it was a cute lil "in" joke for the baby boomers...Betty White, Before golden Girls, played a vicious nasty man hungry TV celebrity called the Happy Homemaker on the classic Mary Tyler Moore Show.She was always stirring up trouble and being catty, so to cast her as a sweetheart on the show was amusing.
