I remember this series... I liked it. I remember the princess being a hottie and ming looking exactly like he did in the old movie series. The TV series added a "cute" baby dragon character as comic relief.
Such beautiful animation for tv at 5:06 thru 5:10 when Flash fights the princess for the knife ...and yes, yes, all you experts - I KNOW it was rotoscoped ...but so what? It's just wonderful to see when most all animation back then was so darned cheesy.
They say Ming is planning to get the titanium franchise on Plan-it Guin-ee. How can the Lion Mountaineers on the neighbouring Plan-it avoid being colonised by Ming?
Will Ming get his carbon credits at Plan-it Copen- Hag-en or will Plan-it earth destroy it-self? Hu knows, but who knows Hu? Maybe Dr Zarkov will get instuc-tions from South Cen-tre before the lizard women turn him into ham-burgers.
My father just came up to me at random while I was watching this and said, did you know there was a Flash Gordon porno in the 70's called Flesh Gordon?
After watching the last four part of this, i gotta say that is is one of Filmation's best efforts. Some of the animation is actually full even if it has the usual Filmation technique of re-using poses, and walk cycles. I'm also amazed at how they were able to reference Hitler, and incorporate the word 'hellhole' into the script. BCI should release this on DVD, along with the top 5 episodes like they did with 'He-Man' & She-Ra'.
The reason Filmation was able to reference Hitler, and incorporate the word 'hellhole' into the script was because this was made BEFORE the series and was meant to be a TV movie. It's also why they incorporated so much reused footage in the series. This is where it all came from.
Hi can you post a 1970's episode of flash grodon if im not mistaken it is entitled "King flash" when azora the queen of withs city put flash gordan under her spell.

That was so random, and I paraphrased.

My name is actually Zak. I was very very young when I first saw this with my brothers.
Naturally, they mocked me greatly for being that monster, and I cried.
