Xena Footloose

Anyone rating this less than 10 has no taste! With all the episodes of Hercules and Xena that are really stupid. This one was fun and was probably fun to make.

Trivia
Directed by Michael Hurst aka Iolaus and several other Xenaverse characters. A year earlier, he played Widow Twankey the dance instructor in ...And Fancy Free (1997) and Men in Pink (1998). "...And Fancy Free" had a title based on Footloose (1984) (from which this plot gets its basic premise), while "Men in Pink" prominently featured Autolycus, whose love of dance here may be a result of Widow Twankey's dance troupe saving his life in the earlier adventure.

Goofs
During the dance segment where Xena and Gabrielle are dancing with Gabrielle's staff, Xena does the splits and the staff lays on the ground beside her. As Xena slowly gets up grimacing at the strain of the splits, she holds the staff in her left hand. In the the second camera cut down to Gabrielle's feet, we see the staff laying on the ground. As soon as the camera cuts back up to Xena and Gabrielle, suddenly the staff is in Xena's right hand.

Quotes
Autolycus: [after being insulted by Istafan] This plan of yours, does it involve humiliating that horse's ass?
Xena: Yep.
Autolycus: Then I'm in.
