Marlena's Voice
IMDB is inaccurate in its details of the voice actors on the He-Man show, and is notorious among fans for being so. As was recently confirmed by James Eatock, renowned MOTU historian on the message boards of he-man.org, Queen Marlena's alternate voice was done by Jay Scheimer and not Erika as previously believed. George DiCenzo also belongs in the cast list for he provided the occasional guest male voices, such as Lord Taran in "The Sleepers Awaken" and Garth in "Eye of the Beholder".

Cleanup-Reconstruction
Due to the confusion, and the changes between writers and directors, I can understand the need to create separate episode lists for viewing, production, and broadcasting. However, the multiple lists currently take up 80% of this long article. There has got to be a better way to organize the lists of episodes to clean it up and reduce the article size. -- CobraWiki 22:53, 15 October 2006 (UTC)


 * I personally don't see the need for the 'original screening order' list. There is no 'official' broadcasting order for the episodes as they were aired in different orders on different stations- the order given definitely does not match either the UK nor US orders, for instance, and given that it is unsourced I don't see any reason for its inclusion. --Mosquitor 22.57, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

Please check out imdb's listings of episodes, they are presented in production order and then airing date.

According to imdb, http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0126158/episodes#season-1, the first episode was september 5, and as such the date at the top of the article (september 30 - xxx) is wrong.

Separate article created for Episode lists
I have created a separate article for the episode lists as this article has gotten too big. Since there are those who want both lists to remain, I think this is the ideal thing. Now people can deal with the separate article and decide what should remain and what should go (if anything). HeMan5 21:34, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

Nav template
Here is an example Navigation Template which could go a thte bottom of each page related to Masters of the Universe so people can move around the various pages more easily. Let me have your suggestions on improvement or anything.--NeilEvans 22:47, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Prince Adam
The reference to Prince Adam being a "seemingly cowardly, blond muscleman" in the main entry is improper as not only is he never referred to as being a coward, he was actually intended to be smaller and younger than his alter ego, He-Man; however, he was animated using He-Man's design chart to save money, as making the series was very expensive. In fact, in one of the comics that featured Prince Adam, he is actually shown to be smaller than He-Man. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Glammazon (talk • contribs) 14:08, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

DVD Releaes At An End?
Does anybody have any idea why the DVD releases of He-Man And The Masters Of The Universe (Season One-Vol.1&2, and Season 2-Vol.1&2) have become increasingly harder to find? It seems as though they've been taken off the shelves in stores, and have become more expensive online. Have the canceled the DVDs? Are they planning on Re-Releasing them? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JasonB626 (talk • contribs) 22:24, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

Copyrighted Material
Although Fair Use policies allow the quoting of material such as lyrics without violating copyright, these policies have limits. These limits include the straight copy-publishing of entire scripts, poems, or songs for reading without the permission of the author (though exceptions apply, of course). As such, I have removed the section of this article containing the theme songs. Dwanyewest (talk) 20:51, 14 January 2010 (UTC)

Overseas info
I am quite skeptical about whether the overseas content should be kept I don't doubt the information is true but there is a lack of third person verification to demonstrate that it is true. The burden of proof is on the author writing the information to demostrate its true via reliable third person sources via WP:BURDEN, WP:VERIFY Dwanyewest (talk) 16:15, 15 April 2010 (UTC)

The overseas broadcast history, certainly as far as the United Kingdom goes, has been contributed by a selection of contributers for some time now. More recently, sources such as James Eatock's Filmation guide have come into play.

I can't help wonder why is the overseas broadcast history continually removed in it's entirity, yet it is deemed appropriate to give a full run-doiwn of the American broadcast history (and in the header, at that!). Are we to take it that America is more important than the rest of the world?? Certainly it can be reworded to suit Wikipedia's requirements, but complete removal seems both extreme and unjustified.

 * Foreign Broadcasters of US television shows have been discussed ad nausea as whether they should be included in articles. . Dwanyewest (talk) 20:03, 3 December 2010 (UTC)

When did this series end: 1984 or 1985?
According to the episode list page, the last episode was aired in December 1984, so why do other parts of the article claim that the show finished in 1985? 110.174.166.224 (talk) 00:46, 28 October 2015 (UTC)
