I never saw enough to quite figure out what was going on.
Just Hercules and Iolaus saving Greece from all of Hera's monsters. And then there were the parody episodes that were Silly. And really stupid, and really hilarious. It also gets confusing when they re-use actors (the budgets for this show, and Xena the Sister-Show, were incredibly low, no surprise there) so each actor, even on occasion the main ones--when they did alternate universes and things--played at least three or four different characters, especially the guest stars. Also fun is recognizing people like Karl Urban, Marton Csokas and Craig Parker in the episodes, each of whom played at least three different people, although Karl Urban was mostly Caesar on Xena. They have no value as art, nor really as a television series, but they're great if you want lots and lots of cheap laughs :D Autolycus, the King of Thieves, is probably my favorite in that respect.
