She-Ra, Princess of Power is an American animated series created by Filmation and produced by DreamWorks Classics in 1985. The show featured the voice talents of Melendy Britt and George Dicenzo in the lead roles. The series follows the story of Adora, a member of the Evil Horde, who discovers that she is in fact the twin sister of Prince Adam and heir to the throne of Etheria. Through the use of a magical sword, Adora is able to transform into the powerful She-Ra, Princess of Power.

As She-Ra, Adora leads a rebellion against the Evil Horde and embarks on a quest to free Etheria from their tyrannical rule. Along the way, she is aided by a colorful cast of characters, including her horse Swift Wind, the warrior Bow, and the sorceress Castaspella.

One of the most notable aspects of She-Ra, Princess of Power is its strong female lead character. With her incredible strength and courage, She-Ra served as a role model for young girls growing up in the 1980s. The show was also known for its diverse cast of characters, including many characters of color and members of the LGBTQ+ community.

In addition to its empowering message, She-Ra, Princess of Power was also praised for its high-quality animation and memorable music. The show's theme song, performed by Noam Kaniel, became an instant classic and is still beloved by fans today.

Despite its popularity, She-Ra, Princess of Power only ran for two seasons before being canceled in 1987. However, the show has remained a cult favorite for many fans over the years, with many clamoring for a revival.

In 2018, DreamWorks Animation announced that they were bringing She-Ra, Princess of Power back to screens with a new Netflix series. The new show, simply titled She-Ra and the Princesses of Power, follows a similar storyline to the original series but features updated animation and a new voice cast.

Despite some initial backlash from fans, the new series has been well-received by both old-school fans and new viewers alike. With the continued success of the show, it's clear that the legacy of She-Ra, Princess of Power will continue to inspire and empower generations to come.

She-Ra, Princess of Power is a series that is currently running and has 2 seasons (129 episodes). The series first aired on September 9, 1985.
