As a fan of Greek mythology it's got so much wrong especially with how Zeus is portrayed as a lovable guy while Hades was made into a standard stand-in for the Devil. Hades while somewhat entertaining due to his actor has next to nothing in common with the actual deity who was in mythology one of the most fair and likable Gods just feared because he controlled all afterlives and was strict. Zeus was an ass who raped, could be quick to anger and a bit of a control freak even though he was the youngest between him, Poseidon and Hades, Hera hated Hercules because he was the son of Zeus and a mortal.

Hercules himself not only was toned down in graphic nature but basically skipped most if not all the labors he had to do. It had a couple songs and maybe a moment or two but it went the easy route while ignoring most the myth for a quick buck vs just trying to tone it down for a younger audience while respecting the mythology.
