I was doing homework or restricted from watching such horrible violent television or something back when Xena: Warrior Princess came out, so I decided to watch a couple of episodes. Only 20 years behind!

I tried to leave you a comment that was marked as spam, perhaps because it included a link? The link is to a Gilbert and Sullivan parody of Xena which I'm sure you'd enjoy, if you haven't seen it already.
