r/xena

Her costume is still on display on the 3rd floor if anyone is headed to Washington D.C. (right next to Dana Scully’s badge, for any X-Files fans)

What are their last names? Wrong answers only. 🤪

We should have seen more of this outfit, I love it so much! I think it suits Xena nicely, but I could understand why it's a little too fancy for normal everyday wear. 😩 I like to imagine Gabrielle complaining about how difficult this one is to lace up and that's why she doesn't wear it. 🤣

My favorite character in the time jump. I always considered her the Callisto to Eve's story despite Eve being Callisto reincarnated.

What do you think she would’ve been like in Solan’s adolescence and Eve’s childhood?

I wonder if she would have taught them how to fight, even if she didn’t want them to be warriors. Being around her, they’d be targets, so would she think it best they learn to defend themselves or would she consider that her and Gabrielle’s responsibility?

I think she would’ve tried to shield them for as long as possible like she did with Gabrielle but what about when they start showing their naturally inherited abilities; like Solan’s ability to sneak up on her and Eve’s fighting prowess. Would that have forced her to begin training them so they can hone their talents or would she prioritize them being the generation to break the cycle of violence and let those traits die on the vine?

Without question if she’d kept Solan from birth she would’ve been an entirely different mother than she would’ve been if Solan had gotten to live with her when he was older. That Xena would’ve taught Solan to fight as soon as he could walk but would she have also been loving? Despite all the horrors he would’ve been around, would that Xena been able to show Solan compassion and warmth?

The worst part of the time jump decision for me… was what happened to our beloved Argo.

How could they kill Argo off after all those years of loyalty and dependability. After many seasons of Argo saving their skins, despite being referred to as both male and female (sometimes even in the same scene- Punch Lines), they just toss her to the wind!!

Sure, they try to make up for the loss by bringing in Argo II, her daughter, but then writers just abandon Argo’s daughter.. No one knows what even happened to her daughter, because Argo II just evaporates into the ether of season 6.

OG Argo deserved a true farewell episode. How could they, I say. How could they.

&gt;! I feel like the episodes set in the future sort of make up for AFIN. It softens the blow! I think the story is great, they just didn't have to end it that way. Xena and Gabrielle didn't get enough time together in that life. So Gabrielle has to live out the rest of her life without her? WTF right? But it's nice to know their story transcends death. I'm so grateful for that. 🙏❤️ !<

I just had to rant a little, thank you for your time 🤣

this scene in Them Bones is probably my favorite. not only is it actually pretty well done for the time and the budget that XWP had, the concept of a skeleton fight is just weirdly appealing to me (it's also pretty disturbing, especially the beginning when Xena takes off her body suit, so i didn't include that part haha)
