Review(s): DVD Xena Warrior Princess - Complete Series (Seasons 1-6)
'great dvd boxsets'
hi, as an UK fan i had the less superior region 2 UK releasee dvd boxsets the orignal releases whick they mixed season 1 up because they released the boxsets in 2 parts and part 1 disc 3 of the first half of season 1 had the epiosodes for later on in the season on them so you had to buy the next half of the to get all of season 1.
and the UK region 2 release boxsets had only a few extras on each season mainly just cast bigraphies or still galleries, i had heard people saying that the Amercian anchor bay releases were much superior, so because i have a multi region dvd player and a tv that supports NTSC , i saved up my money and got some one to to send me a season each weeek , which took me about 6 weeks and then sold my UK ones on!!!
and i can certainly say this i was impress with the American releases !
i would recommend anyone to get the American releases over anything!!!
Great Set!
I've been a Xena Fan since season 1 and I am so glad I waited for the DVDs to come out. I was fortunate that I bought my set directly from Anchor Bay as part of their promotion after season 6 was released. The extras are not that different from what my GF has when she bought each set individually so if that's the only thing that's weighing your decision, it may not be worth it. The series was excellent and I'm glad that I can watch it whenever I want. Now it's on to buy the 10th Anniversay Set. Battle On!!

High emotion and plenty of butt-kicking saturate this finale of one of the best action series of all time. Hardcore nutball Xena fans have doubtless already seen this episode and will want to revisit it, but casual viewers may want to get up to speed with the Xenaverse before watching (or else they'll miss out on a few seasons' worth of emotional resonance). In their final adventure, Xena (Lucy Lawless) and Gabrielle (Renée O'Connor) travel to the Land of the Rising Sun to clear up a bit of Xena's dark past and defeat both personal and tangible demons. Their quest, packed with action sequences, of course focuses on Xena and Gabrielle's evolving relationship. Producer and series co-creator Rob Tapert directs, giving the show some eye-popping moments and a quick homage to his... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Renée O'Connor Director(s): T.J.

The first two seasons are worth seeing. This season is terrible. It has no theme at all, no sense of direction - just a collection of unrelated poor episodes. The worst part is that Hercules second wife, who plays an excellent role, is killed off after only two episodes! What a pity. She was a much better actress than Xena and they killed her. Go figure.

The entire Hercules series was a slapstick, wacky and wonderfully serious (at times) portrayal of one of the world's greatest legends. This show is just super for all ages and while the fight scenes get a little old, they're still fun to watch because they put a lot of subtle comedy into each and every episode. Hercules offers us insights and layers of relevant issues in any time, plus a whole lot of fun. Good beats evil. Right beats wrong. Any questions? More Info about this DVD Director(s): T.J.

I've enjoyed all the seasons of Hercules and this one is no exception. As with the other seasons, the audio and video transfer to DVD is very acceptable. It may not be the best season of Hercules ever, and we don't have anything that compares to the Golden Hind episodes from Season Three. However, this season is still highly entertaining with plenty of creativity and humor from the writers. I even liked seeing Hercules as a pig in Porkules!
I always like seeing Lucy Lawless come back as Xena, and she stars in two episodes, as noted below.
1. Beanstalks and Bad Eggs: Hercules sets out to find the kidnapped Lianna, and finds her caring for the Harpies' three golden eggs.
2. Hero's Heart: The goddess of luck, in an effort to erase one painful incident,... More Info about this DVD Actor(s): Kevin Sorbo DVD Release Date: Released the 13 July 2004 Usually ships in 24 hours
