Happy 15 Years "Xena: Warrior Princess"
Happy Birthday "Xena"!
by Chris Harnick posted Sept 4th 2010 Fifteen years ago, the world was introduced to a television treasure: "Xena: Warrior Princess". Yes, "Xena" is a treasure, because despite what some people may think, despite its over-the-top cheesecake factor and despite its blatant disregard for history, it was a gem of a TV show. Plus, it introduced us to Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor. "Xena" was a trailblazer. "Buffy, the Vampire Slayer", "Alias" and even newer shows such as "Covert Affairs" and the new "Nikita" remake owe a certain something to the beloved Warrior Princess. The series helped reshape the leading lady on TV for good, and for that reason alone, we as an audience should be eternally grateful. Female characters shouldn't need a man to rescue them. They shouldn't be afraid to fall in love with another woman, and they certainly shouldn't hesitate from letting out one heck of a war cry. Today, we salute "Xena" on her 15th Anniversary! http://www.tvsquad.com/2010/09/04/ha...e-15-episodes/ |
