Xena Nixed After 6 Seasons

By Acheron October 18, 2000 6:45 AM

As of next summer, Xena: Warrior Princess will be no more, or rather, will float off to the world of reruns, where it will fade away forever. Not surprisingly, the show had its peak in the early seasons (first aired in 1995), but lately the number of people tuning in has been dwindling. The Xena fans resemble Star Trek fans in that they have had over 100 conventions in the past few years, and Lucy Lawless, Xena actress, has become a cult icon. The news was "swift and painful" for the devoted to hear.

I'll admit it, I really enjoyed the show back in the day, but I was surprised that it was still being aired. It's not a real shocker because Hercules, the series that Xena originated from, has been gone for a while. There will be something else that will come along for all you fans...

I really enjoyed the first three seasons or so because it was a fun show. Once they started having long continuing stories that were slow and boring I stopped watching. I too was surprised it is still on.
