Summary: "you were so beautiful & I knew I couldn't be all bad" -Xena
Review: Of the 6 glorious seasons, this was my least favorite. This, however, doesn't mean it was horrible- because it wasn't!! The show can absolutely do no wrong yet when compared to the four seasons before and the final and finest season that proceeded, Season 5 came up just a little short. As stunning as the heartmelting chemistry between Lucy Lawless & Renee O'Connor has always been, there was just something undeniably missing from their (usually mushy, protective and loving) acting and from the scripts themselves; I don't know if the crew was simply run ragged, fighting, or if Lucy's pregnancy was a difficult subject to write/act around...but the episodes sometimes lacked the poignance and magic that us fans had been so incredibly spoiled with. But still, there were some truly excellent EXCELLENT moments and landmarks such as: X & G struggles in the afterlife, the birth of Xena & Gabrielle's baby & the battle to save it from the clutches of the desperate Olympian gods, the growth of the baby and the story of her tangled destiny, a scary trip to the new underworld, Eli's hopeful sacrifice, wretched Callisto's dramatic transformation and gift, Gab as a mermaid, and a notable possession by the Furies horridly endangers everyone.

MY 5th season FAVES INCLUDE:
Fallen Angel
Xena's and Gabrielle's crucified bodies are retrieved by their friends, while the departed duo are caught in the middle of an afterlife battle between demons and angels. A truly inspiring tale, wicked special effects and packed with heartening surprises! A classic.

Chakram
Xena has no recollection of being a warrior after she and Gabrielle are resurrected from the dead, seemingly, by Eli.

Succession
Xena and Gabrielle must face Mavican, Ares' new right-hand woman, with some added complications.

Seeds of Faith
Eli takes on Ares in an effort to overthrow the gods and pregnant Xena finally learns the true identity of her baby's father. Profound and touching storyline...

God Fearing Child
X & G's baby is born after Hercules steps in to battle his father, Zeus, who learns that the birth of the child will signal the Twilight (end of the Olympian order) Hera, Queen of the gods, steps in to make a shocking decision

Motherhood
With the lives of Gabrielle and Eve hanging in the balance, Xena faces the gods in a final showdown.

Summary: Amazing! Pure Gold!
Review: This was An Unbelievable Season!
Personally Season 5 was one of my favorite Seasons out of the entire Series Of Xena! Left off with The Cliffhanger Season 4 Closer with the electifying "Ides of March" where Xena and Gabrielle were left cruscifed by the romans and supposeldly became angels. We were all thinking... They're Dead... what? But Nope Season 5 Opener "Fallen Angel" was the astonishing conclusion of the cliffhanger. In the Episode there are Angles, and Demons, make-up and costumes were remarkable! In Season 5 Xena finds out the shocking news that she is carrying a baby of mysterious origns, that may put the end to the Olympic Gods...Forever! Season 5 Is Jam-packed with witty humor. betrayal, action, friendship, and sadness. One of My Favorite Episodes is "Lyre, Lyre, Hearts On Fire" the staggering musical. With Ted Raimi, and Lucy Lawless. I have to tell you that this is such an awesome money it's worth just the $50.00! That's how good it is! As Xena carries her child, Gabrielle has to defend Xena and protect her child. You can see the Relationship of Xena and Gabrielle grow as you grow with them. In the Season Gabrielle and Xena are frozen in an Ice Cove for 25 years! As that time passes, "Eve" or "Livia" becomes a fierce warrior which Xena once was. "Livia" threatens to kill Xena, you see their unwinding battle of there relationship. The Season Ends With The Miraculous "Motherhood"!
In the DVD Package, you recieve Interviews by Lucy Lawless, Renee O'Connor, Ted Raimi, Rob Tapert, Steven L. Sears, and Much Much More! You Get Bloopers, Behind The Scenes. An Exclusive CD-ROM with Chronicles, Actor/ Director Information, and Trivia!

This Is A Must Have For Any Xena Fan! This is A Mind- Blowing Season. With Incredible Episodes and Extras! It's A Must Have!!
