My all time favorite show... so far. hide show
Friendship and love are the heart of this show, in spite of all the action, adventure, and sexy ladies in short leather skirts. For six years Pacific Renaissance gave us laughter and tears, and introduced us to one of the hottest new faces in TV history in the incomparable Lucy Lawless, as well as the delightful Renee O'Connor. The only thing wrong with this show is that they ended after six seasons, rather than going on with it for many more glorious years. But with all six seasons released in DVD, at least true fans can revisit every classic episode at their heart's content.
Exploring the possibilities, if only there was an adult version to look into the sexual tension between gabriel an xena hide show
Throughout there are the occasional kisses the long glances the hand holding the "spark" that if set between a male female duo would lead us to believe there is a romantic interest on the parts of the two characters, however is that the case in xena? i think its deliberate made this way i mean leather bound dominatrix with naive young girl, come on its just a blatant exploitation of sexual perversions to retain a predominantly male audience and i am not in the least ashamed to say that at the time it was more for lucy lawless than xena that i watched the show
Xena was first introduced as the ruthless Warrior Princess in 'Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.' Hercules helped Xena to see the errors of her ways and from their she sent off on her own path of redemption which brings us to 'Xena, Warrior Princess.' hide show
A true classic!! I happen to come across Xena again one day on TV and began watching it again, its going through the series and is on everyday. There's no joke, Xena is truly one of my guilty pleasures. Who doesn't love a hot leather clad warrior who battles the forces of darkness? Xena surly is a woman who can take care of herself!! And Ares? *phew* ones of the main reason i started watching the show in the first place, he is defiantly one gorgeous hunk tall dark and handsome! I love how far the relationship between Xena and Ares has come so far... The God of War in love with the Warrior Princess, who would have thought.
Personally this is one of my favourite shows everamazing story lines and actor/actresses and just an all around good show... hide show
Personally this is one of my favourite shows ever...i remember watching it when i was younger and now have gotten back into it in the part couple of years...there has yet to be a show that i think can top it...amazing story lines and actor/actresses and just an all around good show...the best season i would have to say would be season...well i just cant seem to decide between the seasons becasue they are all amazing...hands down i give this show 10 out of 10...there is nothing better than two girls doing good for the world and kicking some but while they are at it...you think you know of a better show?...tell me...
Xena and Gabrielle arrive to do a friend a favour - and end up trying to stop a war. hide show
One of my favourite Xena episodes, this has everything. Drama, comedy, character development, you name it!
It's also nice to see Gabrielle being given a larger role, especially since she heavily overacted, although that was part of the appeal.
Xena was her usual brilliant self, going from semi-vamp contestant to suspicious, ever-watchful Xena in a heartbeat. Her handling of the snake scene was worth the giggles to watch, as was the scene where she re-designed the dress.
The best scene however, was the catwalk practice, which showed the usually poised and precise Xena as a complete klutz in feminine matters.
All things taken, it's a good episode with a good feel. And the final two scenes were well worth watching the rest.
