Except for battling some rubber suit (or even paper Mache; I'm looking at you, THE LOVES OF HERCULES) lizards, Herc rarely got involved in genuinely supernatural shenanigan's. Which is what makes MOON MEN such a treat -- even if the pivotal fight takes place for like 2 minutes at the very end.

This was a tough one, but this Machiste-turned-Herc is just too ridiculous. Heck, it's almost as funny WITHOUT the riffing. It also includes some of my favorite simple riffs that still make me snort. Plus, Jany Clair? I'd lie at her feet...

This is where Deep Hurting came from. Sandstorm, "Pizza Pizza", Steve Reeves. This delivers the cheese, endless shots of people lost, and the Comedy Central feel. Vintage Joel and an experiment that never gets old.

I like "Warrior of the Lost World" MUCH more than the Herc movies/episodes however, "Warrior" has been shown twice (2017 & 2018) in the last 5 marathons. So I figured a change of pace is in order. Granted, I doubt Herc will beat the Paper Chase Guy but we'll see.

Now it's down to the Winners vs. Winners rounds so we're going with the episode we enjoy more, "Horror of Party Beach" though it was a tough choice. "Creepy Girl" is hard to resist but ultimately "SODIUM!" won the day! "Sodium, won't you?" 😁
