This Harry is the magical cannabis plant which known to restore wizard's appetites rather quickly. The unicorn over yonder just had some.
"Hey Herc, hey Herc! Oh...sorry. Thought you were someone else."
If you tell anyone about what we just did, you'll wind up like that unicorn...
Be sure to tell Professor Sprout that I'm hung like a horse. Exactly like a horse. She'll know what I'm talking about. Bom chicky bow bow.

"Well yes, Hagrid is our marriage counselor and it was his suggestion. Why do you ask?"
Hey kid...ya want some candy?
"kid, you are SOOOOO overrated."
"You killed Kenny the unicorn!!!! You . . . . . .!"
"Is that a dead unicorn?"
"Yep."
"Was that the last one?"
"Yep."
Could you help cure my injured Dino-Fly?
Harry: You sure look different that you did in that Sinbad movie.
Dudly the Horse-Man:Yeah, well, we only had stop-action in those days and...HEY! Quit lookin' under there!
See, that's why you always need a light in the woods at night. Otherwise you'll knock youself out cold against a tree, just like that unicorn there

HA! I know the reference, not because I'm a geek, but because it was used as an example of what not to do in our high school animation class.
There were a lot of really BAD cartoon show attempts in the 60s. One of which stared Hercules (who somehow needed a ring to activate his strength) and his sidekick, an annoying little centaur boy.
But + karma for obscurity anyway.
So, Harry, how long have you been having these homoerotic dreams with dead white unicorns and macho centaurs.

Come here, Harry. Let's rehearse that nude scene from "Equus".

Karma to you for getting the reference. An obscure show, but it somehow became a staple of children's programming for some Canadian stations in the 70s and early 80s. For those who don't know it, the show was basically Hercules as Popeye. His normal strength is really high, but never enough to fight the monster. So, he goes to Earth, gets his butt kicked for most of the cartoon, then puts on the magic ring (spinach anyone?) and beats the living crap out of the monster in a few seconds. Even as I little kid, I was asking why he didn't just wear the ring in the first place. He didn't even keep it in a safe place, just tucked it under his belt.
Ugh! "No Thanks" for the Memories!
But *karma* for you guys - because I know you've suffered.
There was a second sidekick: a smaller two-legged centaur (looking back; was it a satyr?!?) that could only communicate with his Pan Pipes (OK, it was Baby Pan?). The main villain wore a dark hood so they wouldn't have to waste time and money to animate his mouth. They only had about four cels of that villain, and they used them over and over.
One of our local stations ran those rancid Hercules cartoons along with the equally terrible 'Sinbad the Sailor' cartoons from A.I.P. They had basically the same premise, except Sinbad tightened his belt (?!?) to activate his super powers and had "Salty the Parrot" as his sidekick. The animation was just as bad as the Hercules ones. The theme, set to the tune of "Sailing, Sailing Over the Bounding Main" sometimes had a jazzy beat, sometimes it was a generic sea chanty arrangement.
For what it's worth, I still remember part of the Hercules theme, sung by a soulful, wimpy-sounding guy:
Hercules!
Only the evil fear him!
Hercules!
People are safe when near him!
(Here the ol' memory gets a bit murky)
Softness in his eyes
Iron in his (uh) thighs (?)
With the strength of ten
Ordinary men!
It's The Mighty Hercules!
Da da da da daaah!
As that centaur boy used to say: "YIIIIIII!"
