The final season begins with Hercules and Iolaus on the trail of a literally demonic killer. But an evil being that takes the appearance of Herc's beloved Serena attempts to lure him into a life of anger and war. Not a bad ep, but not outstanding... ...Continue »
The sixth, final season of the series gets underway with this episode that is fair to watch once, but not one on my list of top episode to re-watch.
I think at this stage, the series had the feel about it that it was in its final days.

The devil make-up of Xerxos, the villain of the episode is good, and nothing less than we've come to expect from the series.

It's also interesting to see Sam Sorbo (nee Jenkins) in the form of Serena, but actually as something far more evil, as she tries to tempt Hercules into life on the dark side.

The highlight of the episode is definitely the climatic fight between Xerxos and Hercules, who himself is becoming demonic. It is really well staged and quite breathtaking.

Nothing much more to say about this episode really. It's one of those that is okay for a first viewing, but doesn't really reach out and grab you as anything special.
