I was planning to review 4 episodes of Conan at a time last month.....it didn't work. Conan 4 episode batch Ok guys. So I hate to say it, but I think we are running into a bit of mediocrity. Don't get me wrong, I still really like this show, but if the rest of the series continues like this, then I understand why it's not widely talked about. Our first episode is "The Red Brotherhood" where we have a piss poor excuse for this episode being a filler episode. We start out with the show trying to establish the politics between Barbarians and soilders. Barbarians seem to be looked down upon in this world. I almost wish this wasn't a Conan show, but a show blending together all of the past warrior types like vikings, samurai, Barbarians (That's essentially what they're doing).

Ooh, he even saved a big black muscly man in the opening credits!!! This is exciting!!! So I have absolutely no history with this show. The series ran from 1992 to 1993 with a total of 65 episodes (39 of those are on DVD in the US). The series also had a toy-line from Hasbro (Clearly trying to ride off of the success of Masters of The Universe, but way too late). There was a sequel series called " Conan and the Young Warriors" which aired in 1994 and only lasted 13 episodes. But more on that at another time. How will future reviews work: I will be purchasing DVDs and ripping the clips from the episodes to make view-able clips online as well as gifs!!! I may upload them to YouTube as unlisted or private so they won't get taken down. I will go more in depth with the episodes and my feelings on the episode along with the characters (and of course, the muscle 😜) I didn't do that with She-Ra because I honestly was bored at the lack of good peril scenes ...
