    Totally disaster

    I can't explain why, but all I can feel when I watched this episode is...totally disaster...The costume, the creepy creatures, the male gaze and the awful script, just makes me feel so sick. I really don't understand what message the writers are trying to convey in this episode. Even if it's meant to be ironic, It's still not funny enough and very offensive to me that it makes all the female characters so foolish and fighting for man's love...

    I mean, I really loved XENA and I never miss a single episode of this series, but this one is just...I can't even think of a word to describe it. Gross maybe? That I just want to skip it...

    Most underrated Gem of the series

    This episode has a beautiful set with a bizarre change from the usual episodes of the series. I think this is a fun entertaining and creative episode and is my personal favorite of the show. Very unappreciated gem. Please don't overlook this stunning work of art.

    Storyline

    • Trivia
      Crustacia's frenemies call over a portrait painter, who abandons three women posing for him. The women are in a classic "Charlie's Angels Pose", adapted from promotional shots for the 1976 tv show that helped legitimize women as action heroes. To a degree, Charlie's Angels cleared the path for Xena.

      None of the mermaids are seen swimming with their flippers. They are all swimming with their arms only.
    • Quotes

      Crustacea: This place is a sty.

      Hagar: Heh-heh-heh-hey! Not for long! 'Cause now that you're feelin' better, you can start cleanin' again!

      Crustacea: Did we have a happy marriage?

      Hagar: Happy as clams.

      [Hager gives Crustacea's butt a nice slap, she moans]
