As if it could ever be a question, hell yes, Xena: Warrior Princess inspires me. It inspires me to do the best I can with what I have, paired with heart and dedication, and maybe, just maybe, people will fall in love with my work despite its flaws. It inspires me to create stories full

I’ve heard of about a reboot of Xena: Warrior Princess for years, and my desire for anything more from the series dwindles by the year. Don’t get me wrong: I absolutely adore this show and will treasure it forever, but it was made and released when it was supposed to, trailblazing for plenty of shows

Awww, yisssss … Now, I’m usually more of an epic soundtrack kinda gal, but I love the more emotional bits of Joseph LoDuca‘s work, of which he has made plenty. And yes, before you ask, on the first track, “Burial,” that is Lucy Lawless singing. She even wrote the lyrics, which if I recall correctly,

When I first started watching Xena: Warrior Princess, I was fairly young, so gender wasn’t really something that I paid much attention to. A show’s ability to entertain me was my primary focus, and it didn’t matter to me what gender the main characters were. As I got older, though, I started to see patterns

It’s a tie! Well, technically, it’s a two-parter: “Purity” and “Back in the Bottle” from Season Five. It includes my least favorite villain (Pao Tzu) and a return to Chin in a weird attempt to recreate the magic of “The Debt” from Season Three. Even Robert Tapert, Xena producer and co-creator, was severely disappointed in

This episode has been and will always be my favorite, and I don’t care that it’s from the first season and features terrible makeup and crappy CGI. “Hooves and Harlots” is what got me into Xena and it will forever hold a special place in my heart. Recap: Xena and Gabrielle are passing through a

I’ll be finishing this challenge up this week, I promise! The past week has been … interesting, to say the least. But I’ll be working on these entries for the next couple of days, so I’m hoping to be done with the challenge before Friday. But onto the challenge, belatedly! Not gonna lie, I am

As you know from my previous posts, Season Five is … not my favorite. It has Xena’s mystical rape/pregnancy (I don’t care that she’s okay with it, she had no say in whether or not she had a baby), over-the-top religious allusion (Eve/Livia is basically Jesus and Paul wrapped up into one character, and Eli

Who would have thought that microbiology would be hard? I had to write two papers, complete three labs, and read two pretty hefty chapters this weekend, so sorry about the lateness, but school comes first, y’all. Anyway, back to writing about episodes. It’s actually been kind of nice to look at things in more of

There are few things that Xena: Warrior Princess did not tackle, but the one that I wish they did? Make Xena and Gabrielle a codified couple. I mean, yeah, as far as Lucy and Renee go, their characters were married, and sure, there was that last passionate kiss in the series finale, but come on.
