5 out of 5 stars Final Season for Xena and Gabrielle   January 31, 2005
  1 out of 4 found this review helpful

Some of the best episodes can be found here for they are great viewing. Great all round entertainment for Xena fans as the duo embark on their final adventures which ends in a superb two parter set in Japan. Only criticism of the set however, is that extras are non existent which is a shame. But, am sure Xena fans will lap it up anyway. Great picture and sound, and even better price too. With prices as low as this, they are giving DVDs away nowadays.


5 out of 5 stars The beginning of the end...   May 6, 2004
  5 out of 5 found this review helpful

And thus we begin. The final Xena series, heralded by a heart felt sob on behalf of this fan. This spartan DVD contains some lovely episodes but the lack of extras does leave me somewhat bereft. I keep looking longingly to America and the recent release of the series with commentaries, outtakes and the rest. I hope to see the release of a similar edition over here.brThat said, lets get down to brass tacks. This series marks a return to form for XWP. I didn't dislike the 5th series, but I did find it lacking in ... um... heart. The 6th series definitely sees a return of the 'heart' - our two heroines are soulmates once again, the subtext (which I love) crops up again and again in a delightful way. The first half of the 6th series box set as some brilliant episodes. 'Coming Home', written by major Fanfic writer, Melissa Good sets the scene - it's a new life for XWP and her soulmate, 25 years beyond icey oblivion. Then we head straight into a voyage of discovery to find out what's happened to our heroines' loved ones, with some highly erotic dancing in 'Heart of Darkness'. Oh, how I love our girls! The Norse Trilogy is brilliant and inspired me to find out lots more about Odin and his Valkyries. in fact, XWP has turned me into a bit of mythology nut, all round. 'Old Ares had a farm' raises many a smile and we get to see the girls at their seductive best. The box set ends with a Renee directed episode. I'm reluctant to criticise one of my fave spunky actresses and there is nothing wrong with the direction but this isn't the greatest story line to plunge us onwards into Part 2!


4 out of 5 stars Some wonderful episodes   January 27, 2004
  9 out of 9 found this review helpful

The DVD is pretty much the same as all the others regarding style and lack of any extras - but still nice presentation and sharp quality Xena episodes.pThis is one definitely for the subtext/maintext viewers. I have always been a skeptic in the past but what I've seen of the first half of the season leaves little to speculation. Not an episode goes by without, at the very least, a significant glance - touch or heartfelt admission between Xena and her bard. Some of the maintext in one episode is enough to put other seasons to shame! They really made up for the unpopular season 5. If you've ever read any subtext reports - I'm sure they don't do the real thing justice. You just have to see it - I promise your jaw would've hit the floor at least once!p2 episodes in particular are written by the famous (celebrity status in the Xenaverse!) Melissa Good and another ("Dangerous Prey") is directed by Renee O'Connor. We get some *really* memorable scenes, to name a few:p- Ares being tormented by the Furies in Coming Homebr- Some funky SFX in the Haunting of Amphipolisbr- The dance and jealous looks and remarks in Heart of Darkness.br- Loads of great, dramatic acting in Who's Gurkhan (More dancing!)br- The arguing in Legacy over Gabrielle's guilt.br- The freezing scenes in The Abyss that ought to leave your eyes stingingbr- And yes, the Norse trilogy. A GREAT little excursion up north resembling much a certain much loved folk tale, with plenty of love thrown in for good measurebr- Old Ares had a farm is pretty much the only comedic effort for this half of the season. And you'll get a few laughs out of it - and yet more gratuitous showing of flesh :Dbr- I found Dangerous Prey a little dull just because I didn't much care for the 'nemesis of the week'. One thing I liked though, was Xena's lil jump from the pyre - flashy.pSo yes, lots to keep you interested. And you'll undoubtably find a few you'll want to watch over and over. It's regarded as the best season of Xena, ever. And it doesn't disappoint. Oh yeah, and we're treated to FINALLY getting a new credits opening, yay!pBtw, it figures that it goes up for sale AFTER I buy it for full price! Cheers.


5 out of 5 stars The best kickbutt, action show you'll ever see!   April 11, 2002
  8 out of 9 found this review helpful

After 5 seasons of highs and lows comes the final season--and what a fantastic one it is! It really has got it all and it goes out with quite a bang. brIt starts with a battle in hell and then takes our two heroines into the desert, Scandinavia (with a bit of Norse mythology thrown in), Greece and Rome and finally winds up in the kingdom of Chin. New characters are introduced as well as old ones, e.g Ares makes several appearances and even Joxer has a brief comeback! The finale is truly spectacular and does bring the whole story to a logical -albeit sad- conclusion. If you have watched all of the previous shows, get this one. It definitely rocks!


5 out of 5 stars The end - But what an end!!!   February 26, 2002
  19 out of 21 found this review helpful

I was lucky enough to watch the last season of Xena while I was over in America for a few months.brI have been a huge fan of Xena ever since it was produced in 1995 and have loved the charecters throughout the first five seasons but season six really blew me away. Not only did it have stunning episodes and story lines but Lucy Lawless was looking even more stunning than normal and I think you will agree that that is pretty hard to do.brAs I have mentioned season six is the last season of Xean this is a very bad thing but that last episode was uttly amazing. A lot of plot lines that have grown over the past five years were brought to an end including the truth about Xena and Gabriels relationship.brThis DVD is a must have for all those who are or are not fans of Xena as it is pure good action with great special effects - enough to fill anyones wishes. BUY IT!!!
