Strife tricks Hercules into removing a vase from Hera's cave.

Strife frames Iolaus for stealing money from Kora's in an attempt to get at Hercules and causes Hercules, Iolaus, and Jason to be at odds with each other.

After Hercules stole Hera's chalice, he was freed from Zeus' protection, which gave Ares the golden opportunity to kill his hated little brother. Ares uses Strife to lure Hercules to his mother Alcmene's house, where he plans to finish him off for good.

Hercules, Iolaus, and Jason take a boat to Athens to find a new cook for the Academy, but they get more than they bargained for when they learn that the boat is transporting Amazons en route to a slave trader.

Iolaus' old gang breaks into the Academy and holds Iolaus, Lilith, and Fiducius hostage. While Jason and the other cadets are outside trying to keep them from escaping, Hercules alone is inside trying to save the others—his key advantage being that they don't know he's there.

Hercules, Iolaus, and Jason are all sent to detention, but Hercules and Jason must cover for Iolaus when he has to leave to start his new job at Kora's.

The boys are left to watch the inn when Kora takes off after Artemis asks her to help find the fruit that was stolen from her temple. Unfortunately trouble ensues when Strife and Discord drop by for a havoc-wreaking visit.

After Hercules is bested in a practice sword fight by Jason, he asks Hephaestus to build him some new weaponry. Hercules's new sword and shield are made from a metal that no other metal can harm, and this power brings Hercules a lot of trouble and threatens his friendships with Iolaus and Jason.

The trio stumbles across the Amazons once again, and this time they invite the ladies back to the Academy. Unfortunately, when they get there, the King of Athens arrives, claiming the Amazons are his property. This revelation doesn't sit well with the Amazons or Hercules, who must try to solve the situation without anyone getting hurt.

Hephaestus, failing to gain the interest of the fairer sex, builds a woman of his own, but his jealousy could endanger Hercules when the woman falls for him instead of the God of Steel.

Hercules, Iolaus, and Lilith are caught between friends when Discord and Strife pit Cyane's tribe and Cheiron's fellow centaurs against each other, with Cyane and Cheiron leading their armies into battle.

With hatred growing and the facts distorted by lies manufactured by Discord and Strife, Hercules and his friends are running out of time to prevent a war that isn't necessary and to save two people Hercules cares about.

Tired of being called a wet blanket by his friends, Hercules requests the fire in Hephaestus's Olympian forge to make him more like his father. Although at first it seems to work, by making Hercules a much more laid-back, fun guy, the side effects quickly put Hercules and his friends in danger. Iolaus and Jason must call on Hephaestus to help restore Hercules to his original self.

Hercules takes Lilith on a field trip to divert her from the surprise party that the others are setting up, but as usual, trouble follows. A cave-in traps them, and Ares attempts to manipulate Lilith into unknowingly poisoning Hercules.

After Ares attempts to kill Hercules yet again, he is put on trial by the gods for violating Zeus's order of protection. Ares proceeds to claim he is innocent and asks Hercules to defend him, baffling Hercules, who reluctantly decides to defend Ares.

Hercules, Jason, and Iolaus rescue a drowning man after he literally falls from the sky. The funny thing is the man has no idea who he is or where he came from. Hercules soon discovers that the man is actually his half-brother Hephaestus, the God of Steel, and that he's being punished by his mother, Hera, by turning him into a mortal man.

Hercules alienates his friends when he abandons them during a competition called The Games to team up with his two new brothers, Pollux and Castor, who are the mortal sons of Zeus. Things get worse for Hercules when Pollux cheats and injures Jason in the process, causing the two to fight out their differences.

Discord and Strife, disguised as a Babylonian traveler and a Sybill, give Jason a gift that turns out to be a baby monster, which Iolaus soon comes to adore. Unknown to the trio, though, is that the monster is capable of burning down anything his venom touches.

A young minstrel, Orpheus, and his girlfriend, Eurydice, lure Hercules, Iolaus, and Lilith into what they claim is a place where the party never ends, run by Bacchus, the God of Partying and Good Times. In reality, they soon learn, it is the realm of the Bacchae, the vampire-like followers of Bacchus, which they discover only after Lilith has been bitten and is slowly changing into one herself.

Orpheus and Eurydice, both reformed from their days as followers of Bacchus, perform at Kora's in front of a sold-out crowd. But unbeknownst to Eurydice, Orpheus has struck a deadly deal with Bacchus, freeing him and Eurydice if he helps recruit new Bacchae.

Hercules and Iolaus meet up with Eurydice and Orpheus, but when it's discovered that Orpheus still has the lyre, Eurydice promises Bacchus that she will become his bride if he agrees to leave the others alone.

Hercules and Jason travel to the underworld in an attempt to talk Hades out of sending Eurydice to Tartarus despite her service to Bacchus. Meanwhile, Jason is reunited with his father in the Elysian Fields.

The trio discover that Ruff, their monstrous former pet, is being held by a freak show owner. When the ringmaster refuses to sell him, Iolaus and Hercules sneak in and free Ruff, who then escapes and runs rampant, threatening Corinth.

Hercules meets Lucius, another mortal son of Zeus, who tells him that he is on the trail of Pollux on the request from Zeus himself to deliver Pollux to death for the crime of the death of Castor, their brother. Hercules agrees to join him, unaware that Castor was actually killed by Lucius, who has some ambitious plans that don't include his brothers.

Hercules meets Nemesis, the assassin of the gods, and talks her out of blindly killing a mortal just because Hera tells her to. The two then fall victim to Hera, who sends a replacement killer after both of them.
