* AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle: Every episode has a PublicServiceAnnouncement at the end to emphasize its [[AnAesop Aesop]]. One notable bit had He-Man and She-Ra address the problem of sexual abuse. After the episode ran, at least one kid was able to come forward and admit to his or her parents about being sexually abused.

YMMV


* BrokenAesop: The original series was the real king of the BrokenAesop, sometimes making and breaking an Aesop over the span of one or two scenes, or having the AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle scene clash with the episode -- or even the ''series premise''.
** A perfect example of this is in the first episode The AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle message is to work hard and not take shortcuts. In the episode Skeletor tries to take over the palace using [[spoiler:The Lost Diamond Ray of Disappearance.]] In the message following the episode He-Man chews out Skeletor because he tried to take a shortcut instead of working hard. Take a shortcut?! Skeletor literally [[spoiler: found an item the rest of Eternia called the LOST, meaning THEY COULDN'T FIND IT]] and yet he did.

* ChristmasEpisode: Yes, there was one, and it had a TrappedInAnotherWorld plot featuring a pair of young urchins from Earth. The children actually explain what Christmas is to Orko but that part gets the fade-off. [[http://thatguywiththeglasses.com/videolinks/thatguywiththeglasses/nostalgia-critic/14482-hmsrch The Nostalgia Critic]] gave it a look, and in his opinion it was as cheesy as he had expected. [[ItWasHisSled But then, it was probably assumed that this was commonly known information that would just bore the audience.]]

dewicking Cloning Blues, moved to Mes A Crowd


* CloningBlues: In the episode, "Here, There, Skeletors everywhere", Skeletor creates an army of clones which he calls "Skeletoids" who were like him except smaller. Realizing each clone must be just as greedy as the original, He-Man turned the tables on Skeletor by asking the clones what they'd get from helping Skeletor becoming the ruler of Eternia. As each clone wanted to rule Eternia as much as the original Skeletor wants, they fought among themselves.
