Zorn (Jason Sudeikis), Edie (Cheryl Hines), Craig (Tim Meadows) and Alan (Johnny Pemberton) from 'Son of Zorn' staring off into the distance
The Big Picture For many readers of a certain age, there is a fond remembrance of lazy Saturday mornings full of sugary, kidney-destroying breakfast cereals and those oh-so-iconic 80s cartoons. He-Man and The Masters of The Universe gave many children giddy little thrills as the seamless blending of high fantasy and sci-fi struck a chord with its primarily male audience.
Everything about Zypheria is reminiscent of 80s Saturday morning cartoons. Zorn has a magic sword, rides around in a combination of futuristic technology powered by what seems to be magic, and often finds himself defending the land from a humanoid vulture who wants nothing more than to see Zorn dead.
Zorn spent those precious early years indulging in his hedonism and shucking the responsibilities of fatherhood and, as a result, Alan fell further and further away from his roots and is a regular American teenager in every way except one. He has animated legs that are super strong, which he is ultimately ashamed of. In the pilot episode, after a battle with his enemies, Zorn visits his estranged family, where he learns that Alan hates him for being mostly absent in his life.
As kids, we sat in wonder, watching the magical vehicles of the He-Man world come to life. We thought it would be so cool to drive one of those things. Son of Zorn plays directly to those childhood fantasies, sort of like The Lego Batman Movie does. So, when Zorn acquires a war falcon for Alan in order to win his love, it strikes a chord in the audience, and it, of course, backfires. Giving a normal child such a vehicle is bound to create carnage, and so it does.
