Goofs
Although the actors for King Sisyphus and Queen Karis return from Death in Chains (1995), continuity is ignored in several aspects. In Xena's adventure, Sisyphus trapped the female death god Celesta. He was later reasoned into letting her go of his own free will, being told that it wasn't his time to die yet. There was never any indication that he put someone else to die in his place. Yet in Hercules' adventure, Sisyphus is remembered as having trapped the male death god Thanatos, and the substitution of Timuron is a crucial plot point. Sisyphus' basic nature has also changed, from a basically good man who got carried away, to a deep-dyed villain with no morals at all.

Quotes
Soldier: [Soldiers have been formed up for a while] 'Hurry up and wait! Hurry up and wait.' You'd think the army would be different once you're DEAD!
