* HoYay:
** Hercules and Newton are basically like [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Batman and Robin]] (or, more appropriately, [[Franchise/{{Superman}} Superman and Jimmy Olsen]]), but with [[{{Squick}} 50% more horse]].
** That said, Hercules seemed far more interested in his "best friend" Theseus on the rare occasions he appeared (as in the pilot episode and The Wings of Mercury).
* SoBadItsGood: The show's [[{{Narm}} Narm Factor]], choppy animation, and voice acting to make [[VideoGame/ResidentEvil1 Barry Gjerde]] proud all make it absolutely hilarious to watch. The commercials on Creator/TeletoonRetro describe Hercules as fighting evil "with the help of his friends, his magic ring, and some questionable mid-century animation."
