Line 19:
The series ran from 1995-2001, and at one point was the most popular show in the world, surpassing ''[[Baywatch]]'' for the title.
The series also had several comic book spin-offs by Topps Comics and Dark Horse Comics (including two [[Crossover|crossovers]] with ''[[Evil Dead]]''), which ended following the show's end. However, in 2007, Dynamite Entertainment acquired the rights to the comics and published two story arcs (''Contest of Pantheons'' and ''Dark Xena''), which essentially act as an [[Alternate Continuity]] and a [[Fix Fic]], [[Canon
Produced by Renaissance Pictures.
Line 46:
* [[All Amazons Want Hercules]]: Averted? Parodied? Amazons have crushes on Joxer in ''Lyre Lyre Hearts on Fire'' and ''Kindred Spirits'', and Joxer ain't Hercules. In fact, even when Hercules is around, so is his friend Iolaus who gets more female attention than Herc does.
* [[All Girls Want Bad Boys]]: Or at least, according to Ares, every time he tries to seduce Xena.
* [[Alternate Continuity]]: The ''Xena'' comic series by Dynamite Entertainment [[Canon
* [[Alternate Reality Episode]]: "Remember Nothing" (Xena never becomes a warlord) and "When Fates Collide" (Caesar & Xena rule Rome).
* [[Ambiguously Gay]]: Xena and Gabrielle. SO MUCH. Not that they didn't have their flings with men.
Line 129:
* [[California Doubling]]: The New Zealand variant standing in for ancient Greece and other parts of the world.
* [[Camp]]: Apparently you can have lesbian [[Camp]].
* [[Canon
* [[Catch Phrase]]
** "I have *many* skills."
Line 405:
* [[Not So Dire]]: In "The Price" we see Xena and Gabrielle in a struggle with something which turns to just them fishing. Their fun is ruined however when [[Mood Whiplash|corpses start floating down the river]].
* [[Offhand Backhand]]: Xena, quite often with regular [[Mooks]].
* [[Official Couple]]: In an odd case of this, the episode "The Xena Scrolls" have the descendants of Xena and Gabrielle find the title scrolls which detail Xena's life and which name [[Temporary Love Interest|Marcus]] as Xena's "one true love." Obviously, most fans chalk this down to [[Canon
* [[Off with His Head]]: Pompey and Discord.
* [[Once Killed a Man with A Noodle Implement]]: The assassin Sinteres is said to be deadly with any weapon. King of Thieves Autolycus, posing as Sinteres, has to demonstrate this by killing a man with a thrown toothpick {{spoiler|although Xena's use of a grappling hook helped}}.
