    Should there of been more humor style episodes?

    As topic says, do you think there should of been more humor style episodes like Flowers for Hordak?

    I think there was enough, and sometimes it would get a little campy anyway--but just enough. I like She-ra for its more serious side, but I think there was more than enough humor to counterbalance any too serious drama (ie in 'My friend, my enemy' Hordak is dying from 'doomberry pie'--funny title, and it lightens up an otherwise serious topic). She-ra herself who was pretty serious most of the time could even cut up now and then ('Now that's using your heads! Wait for it--bone brain!). And if the show had been anymore comedic, I don't think we'd remember it as fondly; it would have slipped into the category of campy girl-fluff tv.

    I probably should of been more specific in my original post.

    I suppose I should of put it in a way if people would of liked to see the occasional extra episode done in a humor way like that Flowers for Hordak for example. (how Hordak was driven to the point of insanity, banging his head on the wall)

    Like if other episodes were made that had could have a similar humor aspect, Hordak gets driven insane

    Flowers for Hordak was more than enough.

    i like the humor in she-ra, but only as a side plot. when it's the main story, as in flowers for hordak, it gets a little grating. however, one episode like that out of almost 100; i'd say it's just fine.

    Chris here...

    I think part of the reason that both "Flowers for Hordak" and "Sweet Bee's Home" stand out is because they are unusual in terms of the level of humour presented - I think if there had been any more of those types of episodes, it would have weakened why those two work so well!

    Take care...
