Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened. (Ancient Greek Proverb) From waxing nostalgic for the cable tv series finale event, to marveling at this episode's extremely high production value, Chris and Ally bid their farewell to the Warrior Princess. It's tough to wrap a show when you've already resolved all your closure, but from professions of love to a sensual on-screen kiss, it felt like Xena Warrior Princess the 90s action adventure show really did as much as it possibly could... or did it???

We've reached Xena's final story, and the fucks have run dry. There are no fucks left to give. The penulimate episode of Xena Warrior Princess brings us back, yet again, into Xena's dark past, taking a lot of big swings and making a lot of big choices. Will they all pay off? How cool will Gabby play it when she finds out she wasn't Xena's first? And what's the deal with Japan's natural iron deposits?

We let out listeners pick our last CommentaRAIMI movie, and so we watched Sam Raimi's meticulously stylish tournament arc of a movie We talk about the appeal of Westerns, movies where a bad guy owns a town, Russell Crowe's floppy-haired fuckboy sex appeal, and the inherent awkwardness of walking into a place and having people look at you.
This is a commentary track, and can be listened to while you watch The Quick and The Dead!

Bad news, everyone! A new Xena scroll has been discovered, and it says that Xena might have been a heterosexual! Does this mean Rob Tapert will finally give us season 7? Or will Xena be thwarted by paperwork/fineprint?

It's Gabrielle's birthday, so you know it's time for some psychological torture. It's also time to deprogram a rescued virgin sacrifice, and to meet one of the goofiest villains we've seen in a while. It's the show's most sapphic episode to date, and the very last dvd disc of the series! We're not crying, we've just been cutting onions.

The victory lap continues, with Chris and Ally are well on their way to seeing Xena Warrior Princess to completion. But first, they must contend with yet another human/centaur birth, and all the awful logistics leading up to such an unconscionable abomonation. We also get Xena as a bad stepmom, some weird character assassination for Gabrielle, and the return of some dodgy centaur special effects.

Isn't it rich? Xena and Gab? Lesbian heroes of old...cloned in a lab? In a time of modern struggles and civil unrest, the nation cried out for a hero, and a reincarnated sorcerer teams up with some losers to clone a few. Today's episode is a diagetic clip show, a style of episode that Xena Warrior Princess has gotten quite good at. We talk jokes, bathrooms, and the wide spectrum of the way a show treats its fans. From Sherlock to Supernatural to House MD, you always have to ask: are they laughing with us, or at us?

It's time, folks. We're finally doing it: We're cancelling Caligula. This oddball episode felt like dropping in on a random episode of a tv show you've never seen... so we got special guest and Sailor Business cohost Betty Felon (@bettyfelon) to drop in on a random episode of a tv show they've never seen! We cover all the classic Xena bases: gods, fights, angels, sexy dancing, and a classic sapphic bathing scene, and we finally answer the age-old question: was Xena real?

This episode shows that having the high ground does not always provide you with the advantage. Xena may have met her equal match in Morlock, and teams up with a rebellious young amazon who, you guessed it, has a lot to learn. Renee O’Connor returns to the directors chair, bringing us one of the most unique and notable fight setpieces of the entire series. We're playing Jenga, and we're doing it Texas style!

After a heavy trilogy of action, intrigue and character growth, we take a step back to reconnect with life's simple pleasures, as Xena and Gabrielle help Ares go undercover as a farmer, and ask the hard hitting questions, like: How are ya at shovelin’ shit? In the wise words of Chris Sims: “There is a real giving up aspect to this episode.”

This episode shows that anyone can change. A warlord can turn into one of the good guys. A valkyrie can turn into a tree monster. Another valkyrie can turn into a fire. Amid these lessons, Ally learns about the MILF hunter, and Neil Gaiman returns to explain the true meaning of Beowulf.

Xena Warrior Princess the show finally deals with the downsides of having killed off their comic relief.

This silly episode has everything. Manslaughter. Ethnic cleansing. The disappointing realization that your heroes are flawed people. It scared Chris so badly that he had to fake being sick for a month just to avoid having to watch it. Xena and Gabrielle find themselves on the receiving end of some desert hospitality, while Gabrielle contends with the fact that she’s a lot more warrior than bard these days.

The Gurkh store called, and they're running out of you! This episode strives to answer the question of our lifetime: Who's Gurkhan? Gabrielle wants vengeance, Xena wants Gabrielle's head to stay attached to her shoulders, and everyone wants to be Number One Wife. Just remember, when everyone is Gurkhan... no one will be. There's only one joke in this episode, so please enjoy: GURKHAN OFF!

London bridge is falling down, my fair lady! After over 5 years of watching executive producer Sam Raimi's hit action/adventure show Xena Warrior Princess, Chris and Ally are diving deeper into the noted horror auteur's filmography.

Xena has bent Odysseus's bow. She set in motion the murder of Julius Caesar. She heralded the birth of Jesus Christ. The throne of hell is vacant, but won't be for long. Will Xena accept her fate as the new ruler of all evil? Or will she claim yet another historical event for herself and orchestrate Lucifer's fall from heaven?

As Halloween approaches, there's only one thing to do: It's time for Xena to fight the devil! A hellmouth opened up in Xena's childhood home, turning it into a haunted house. But the spirits are not resting, and they're not in peace. There's ghosts, skeletons, demons, gross stuff.. It's as if Sam Raimi decided to make a television show.
