Xena Warrior Princess

Xena Warrior Princess

The one where we talk about Xena's pilot episode

Show notes

In this episode, we venture into the ancient world of Xena, Warrior Princess. We marvel at the stunning New Zealand scenery and costume design (minus the plastic mohawks) and the not-so-amazing 90s computer generated imagery. We'll also go behind the scenes to discuss Lucy Lawless's unlikely origin story (spoiler: she was not their original choice!) and ponder why this show did so much better than it's predecessor, Hercules.

While we are focused on the pilot episode, there are spoilers in this episode.
