Xena: Warrior Princess

This one should have more fan base because of the new style of the time.

Lucy Lawless have a new style of strong women.

Not only being strong and beat up people but also being beautiful and seductive.

She was ahead of her time.

I love this show. Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor are fabulous as Xena and Gabrielle. Xena is a former warlord trying to atone for her past by traveling the world doing good. Gabrielle is her sidekick, a bard writing the stories of Xena's adventures. The show is packed (usually) with action, realistically, and breath-takingly, performed by Lawless and O'Connor. And when the show ventures into comedy, it is capable of being the funniest show on television. Did I mention that I LOVE THIS SHOW!

Xena was one of televison's greatest shows. Encompassing in it, action, drama, humor, love, relationships, and life lessons. Xena had it all, even had sexy costumes for the 'lower class' viewer. But, this was more than beautiful women running around in 'appealing' costumes. This was a show about the strength of women, the power of friendship, and that even the smallest of us can become something great. Skilled actresses and actors took us all over history bringing the past alive. For many, Xena was an escape from our everyday 'normal' life. The main characters Xena and Gabrielle were easy to identify with. Over the course of six seasons, you see them grow as they learn what their truly made of and what their morals and beliefs are. Ultimately, it was a show about good triumphing over evil, but more than that, it was a show of groundbreaking themes and memorable characters. Take some time to watch a Xena episode, you'll be glad you did.

Xena was a campy classic masterpiece full of action, suspense and great storytelling about friendship. During the 90s when women power ran amock, Xena bulldozed in wearing her glamorous outfit and kicking butt. Along her side was her loyal friend Gabrielle who kept her on the barrow path and provided companionship on the road.

Sure the formula was repetitive with good winning over evil, but the relationships, creatures or warlords played by various guest stars always kept you on your toes and kept you tuning in every weak. The costumes, music and humor were always true to the heart of the episode. Speaking of humor sometimes it worked well intelligently worked up to and other times it could be low brow for the common folk.

Still Xena paved the way for other copy cat shows trying to cash on the fame yet it will always be remembered as the first to break new ground. It even enjoys quite a huge cult following in the fandom and celebrated for it brilliant ambiguity. Xena will still be remembered as one of the best shows ever produced and never go out of style. Get caught up in the fantasy world.

Just like Hercules it was really good-corny show.

Sure some effects were bad. That didn't matter to me because the show was able to carry itself and become an iCONIC show. It had great characters and a mystical story

Verdict: in 2021 people are still complaining about females not getting lead roles....umm...this "female" crushed the 90s. It was better than Hercules.
