TV Show Feature: Hercules: The Legendary Journeys

Hercules: The Legendary Journeys is a tv series produced from 1995 to 1999 and was very loosely based on the tales of the classical Greek culture hero Heracles (Hercules was his Roman analogue). The show became one of the highest rated syndicated shows in television history.

Filmed in New Zealand and United States, the series ran for six seasons and was set in a fantasy version of ancient Greece not precisely located in historical time. Kevin Sorbo stars as Hercules and Michael Hurst plays his sidekick Iolaus. Robert Trebor, who plays Salmoneus, often rotates with Iolaus as Hercules' other sidekick.

Typical plot lines involve Hercules and Iolaus (or Salmoneus) saving rustic villagers from monsters, evil warlords, or the often selfish whims of the gods. The show also has a mixture of Oriental, Egyptian, and Medieval elements in various episodes.
