I have actually learned to appreciate Married with Fishsticks slightly. On its own right, not as a Xena ep though. But I believe that the truly god-awful episode beyond repair was Lifeblood, IMO.

For me it started in the doubles events in China in the 5th season. After that, everything just grew up in a snowball out of control. The snowball stopped after a few early episodes of the sixth...

Let's face it, a show as self-aware and meta as XWP is always on the verge of jumping the shark. We want to suspend disbelief in order to enjoy the show, but the TPTB regularly force us to step back...

I actually like season 4, it was dark yes, but after what happened in season 3 it was important to see what Gabrielle and Xena were going through. I love the spiritual part of it in India, and even if...

Mid s5, lifeblood, married with fishsticks for me. Though I also began to sort of get annoyed with 'The Way' and 'Fallen Angel' to an extent, the mixing of dif religions basically.
