love Xena, but Anchor Bay STINKS
Season 3 is filled with great episodes for any Xena fan. Bitter Suite is one of my favorite episodes in terms of what it achieves in a 1 hour tv format. That's what makes this boxed set so disappointing. The DVD are made cheaply and of poor quality. (I'm writing this review regarding the 3 seasons that I bought: 2, 3, 4) 1st the color landscape of the menus is so horrible that you can't see what you have selected. The basic DVD layout of menus looks thrown together. The dvds are obviously made on the cheap. The disks stick, skip, and revert to the wrong menu and I've had to ship 5 bad disks so far (at my expense) to Anchor Bay for replacement. Some don't play very well but the skips are minimal and I don't feel like paying the postage, so I've kept them. The extras in seasons 3&4 are more substantial - more interviews, commentaries, extra shorts etc. I tend to be a big fan of audio commentary and listening to Lucy, Renee, and Rob reminisce is nice. The Bruce Campbell/Ted Raimi Cabin Fever in Season 3 is quite funny. I love Xena and wish that another company had taken on the project. So disappointing. Content - B, Quality - F.
A great series
Well this season 3 DVD collection gets even better with audio/video commentary with cast and crew. Lucy (Xena) and Renee (Gabrielle) sport new hair styles and colors from what you see on the series. Bloopers are always a great addition and more. Good episodes are found throughout this collection as well. There is also a really great musical episode. Nice comedy, drama, action and more. A very surprising ending you got to see. Purchase it.

At the end of Season Three, Gabrielle had jumped into an abyss to kill her evil child, Hope. Season Four opens with Xena undertaking a spiritual journey to recover her friend. I don't want to spoil anything major, so I'll just mention that the pair travels to India in search of Gabrielle's Way (path through life) and in the process Xena discovers her own Way. They bump into Pompey, Caesar, and Brutus repeatedly, and are instrumental in setting up the famous Ides of March incident at the Roman Forum. This sets up a big dramatic ending for the season, and there's a modern episode (about past life regression) in the final episode.
Season Four has important consequences for the Amazons, shows how Xena played a pivotal role in Roman history, dabbles in FOUR different spiritual... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Lucy Lawless DVD Release Date: Released the 15 June 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours

Just four minutes into "Sins of the Past," the first episode of Xena, you'll gladly follow the warrior princess anywhere. Taking on a gang of marauders, she leaps onto an upright spear embedded in the ground and, with a cry of "Ai-yi-yi-yi-yi," does a circular wall of death on their chests. A syndication phenomenon, this audacious 1995 series was a spin-off from Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. Lucy Lawless stars as Xena, dressed to kill in leather and breastplate. Her exploits are legend: "She came down out of the sky in a chariot throwing thunderbolts and breathing fire," remarks one awestruck boy in the first episode. Xena wants to bury her violent past, but there is no rest for the formerly wicked as she takes up arms (and feet) against any number of villains and...

Xena season 6 is one of the top seasons of all. Effects, colors, action, suspense,..... everything!!!! Very sad to see it go when it did, but it seemed to cover all ground and end appropriately.In other words it ran a beautiful course.
The manner of ending the series was without a doubt, the best avenue of the times they were portraying and it was great to see an illustrated (yet fictional) view of how things may have went on back then. To be honest, this season started my path in Spirituality and the Paranormal.
As far as other negative reviews in regard to Christianty,... I feel it is probably very close to what really happened. Christianity wasnt always the top religion and scenes dipicting that seem to be in line with that. As a very spiritual person I found...
