It really was a pretty classic show, but with ups and downs.<br /><br />I knew you'd use X to talk about Xena! After all, you wrote a script for the show. And the fact that she ran around in that corset armor has nothing at all to do with your fascination with her. I myself only caught the show a few times, but the episodes I liked had not only comedy but songs, kinda Bollywood style.Helenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14967821142796562697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-71418480275002890902015-04-28T21:23:04.350-05:002015-04-28T21:23:04.350-05:00L.

Diane:<br />The dynamic tension was gone -- you're right. :-(<br /><br />Heather:<br />I heard Gillian had a crush on him & also DD was rude to her about not getting as high a raise as he had with "I can't help it if your agent isn't as good as mine."<br /><br />Lucy Lawless, on the other hand, insisted that the per cent of any raise she received on XENA be equaled for her co-star. "I have to work every day with her so it's just common sense!" :-) I think it was also because Lucy is a good person.Roland D.

I know that DD and GA had been told the show would end earlier and then FOX screwed it up. (Surprise). I think DD was just ready to do new stuff. I've never heard that DD didn't like Vancouver either. <br />Heather M.

Lucy Lawless is supposed to be earthy and warm -- at least I can dream she is!Roland D.

We need a few good role models.<br />David on X files, I didn't care for much as an actor and as a person. He didn't like Vancouver. . .some of us felt that way about him.

My husband just introduced it to our daughter. The watched the series on Netflix. Except for the last one. Netflix had problems so they watched on Amazon Prime and watched both movies. Now, it is onto The Lone Gunmen. They are excited about the show being back. I watched it but I never got into it like they did.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051904118383493849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-23899955262099719562015-04-28T08:24:36.659-05:002015-04-28T08:24:36.659-05:00Hilary:
