Back in the nineties, fantasy TV was a little different. The adult-oriented adventures of GAME OF THRONES and OUTLANDER were a long way off, with the genre dominated by syndicated hour-long adventure shows. The king of this genre was Kevin Sorbo's HERCULES: THE LEGENDARY JOURNEYS, but its popularity was soon eclipsed by its spin-off, XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS, which starred the great Lucy Lawless in the title role.
This ultra-popular show became a pop culture phenomenon, paving the way for the a**-kicking heroines, while Lawless herself would become a beloved figure. In this episode of Gone But Not Forgotten we take a look back at the making of the show, and pay tribute to Lawless and some of her co-stars, including Renee O'Connor, Ted Raimi, the late Kevin Tod Smith, and more.
