Agreed. It had a great cast and I didn't have a problem with a likeable lead female role and I still don't. A respectable spin off of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys.
Omgosh… I remember being so obsessed with Xena: The Warrior Princess. I was gifted dvd’s, posters and a small doll. I remember all the characters especially the bonds of friendship - Gabrielle/Lao Ma/Ares etc. The best of the best❣️
That’s amazing! Xena truly had a way of capturing hearts and creating unforgettable memories. The bonds between the characters, especially Xena and Gabrielle, were pure magic. It’s a show that stays with you forever-legendary in every sense! ❣⚔
Heidi (Hudson) Leick as Callisto was my fav character she was so obnoxious and cruel at the same time, best episode of hers was she and Melinda Clarke (Velasca) battled it out.
These actors and actresses still look amazing. Would be cool if the cast of Xena had a cast encore after 30 years. Group photos and signings. The one's still kicking.
I met Ted Raimi while I was working at Unclaimed Baggage in Alabama. I was on break as he was leaving the store and asked him for his autograph. He was so kind and polite and seemed genuinely happy to do it. A real nice guy.
Meet him too. At Southport Rec centre. He was working out in the gym. It’s right beside a town called Portage La’ Prairie. I worked at the rec centre. Got his autograph
I think he was also in Hercules as Julius Caesar…possibly the only actor to play different roles in the two series which were set in the same universe.
What a great blast from the past. Wow. My only minor complaint is the narrator's mispronunciation of several character names (i.e. Gabriel instead of Gabrielle and Yolus instead of Iolaus). I remember my shock when Kevin Smith died suddenly and the unusual circumstances surrounding his death and how the show's cast and fans rallied to support his wife and kids. During its run,the show blazed trails,provided a voice to marginalized peoples,occasionally stoked controversy,and inspired many fans from all walks of life to find their own unique voices and use them to help others. Thanks for the walk down memory lane. Stay safe and be well.
You’d be shocked then that Young Iolaus from “Young Hercules” spin-off played Fili in The Hobbit and Ryan Gosling played Young Hercules in that same show.
I was a teenager when the show was on and I never missed an episode. Renee O'Connor was one of my first real teenage crushes. Victoria Pratt doesn't look like she's aged a day; Trace Adkins hit the lottery when he married her.
I'm gonna admit it, being a young swedish boy seeing Lucy and Renee, i had a crush on both of them. i liked Renee especially because as i young teen i was still redheaded so i thought there was some connection there.
I'd like to see prequel tv series about young evil xena just like they did with young Sheldon young Hercules or I'd like to see daughter of eve name after xena it would be great story passing on legacy hero warrior princess?
Hudson Leick is pronounced Hudson " LIKE as in I like you." I went to conventions and in an early one she said those exact words. She was a very funny person and loved her fans. 30 years have passed so quickly. I miss the Xenite community. A lot of money was raised for great charities including kids with AIDS in the name of the show's community.
30 years ago?
Man!
That was a fast 30 years.
I agreed with you
Not if you stick to the episode "Been There, Done That" ⏳
Im 43 yes totally possible
I know feels like yesterday sometimes
Right? It feels like we blinked, and three decades just flew by! Time really does have a way of sneaking up on us. 🌟
One of the best shows ever.
I agreed

True
All of them are recognisable they’ve just gotten older
Haha stop that lying.
Xena still looks good.😊

Lalalalalalala⚔️
Wow! Several of them are better looking now than then.
as i was watching this I said, "Wow, age looks really good on some people"
I miss those shows!! There were a lot of awesome shows in the 90s to early 2000s that I'm glad I can see now and again. :D
Heidi (Hudson) Leick as Callisto was my fav character she was so obnoxious and cruel at the same time, best episode of hers was she and Melinda Clarke (Velasca) battled it out.
I loved that gleeful evil her character had. I used that photo they used here at 1:10 as a wallpaper for YEARS at work
I watched Xena for Callisto only
having Velasca and Callisto in the same episodes was like a gift to me as a kid
I still remember going to a Xena convention in San Francisco 1998 and getting to sing the Joxer song onstage with Ted Raimi. Great guy.
These actors and actresses still look amazing. Would be cool if the cast of Xena had a cast encore after 30 years. Group photos and signings. The one's still kicking.
There is a con going on in Burbank next year.
@@courtniepollard1557 Nice!
I loved Xena and Hercules and it was an fix TV date every sunday noon to watch them
I love watching both as well they were good series now they showing BS
Bruce Campbell is still a hottie.
I love it when aging just adds more character instead of distracting from it.
Bruce could always get it. 😂
My favorite action shows Xena and Hercules thank you
I met Ted Raimi while I was working at Unclaimed Baggage in Alabama. I was on break as he was leaving the store and asked him for his autograph. He was so kind and polite and seemed genuinely happy to do it. A real nice guy.
I miss them, buy I still have the season five cd collection keeping as souvenir
Some of these characters, I'm like who? Don't remember them. Time to do a re-watch!
I doubt many do, many of them weren't on much, a couple of times or so
I’m definitely going to re-watch. Have them all on dvd
30 years ago? No that is not possible....wait...I am already 47 yo????? 😵💫😵💫😱😱😱😭😭😭😭😭😭
I'm 39. It's amazing how time flys
Oh crap. When the fck did I get old...? Damnit.
@@xandradeah5102I feel the same I'll be 42 this year and remember this show like it was yesterday
You are old my dear 😂
Same here lol
I used to love this show. Xena and Hercules were my favorites.
Exactly and mine too!!!!
Same❤
Me too! Used to watch them religiously
Like many I, too, loved 'Xena' but I'm saddened that two of the character acters have passed away.
Kevin Smith rip.
What a sad way that he died
I remember hearing the news and being just gutted
He's still alive
Kevin Smith who played Ares died due to an accidental fall in 2002
@ Kevin Smith who played Ares died due to an fall in 2002
Lucy still looks amazing.
I met Kevin at a convention in 2000. I was so star struck, but he was a wonderful guy.
Meet him too. At Southport Rec centre. He was working out in the gym. It’s right beside a town called Portage La’ Prairie. I worked at the rec centre. Got his autograph
Lucy Lawless now stars on AcornTV’s “My Life Is Murder”.
Melinda is still beautiful. Her eyes are so captivating. She was one of my favorite villains.
Lucy Flawless
Carl Urban looks better with age. He filled out quite nicely.
I love him on The Boyz.🙃🙃
I was very surprised that was him.
@therabbit317 Really? He still looks very similar IMO.
I didn't even realize the Homelander guy had been in Xena, though! 😳
I think he was also in Hercules as Julius Caesar…possibly the only actor to play different roles in the two series which were set in the same universe.
@@Roguefem76Ditto. I remember Karl Urban, but I didn’t remember Antony Starr from the show.
Xena casting in Spartacus Gods of the Arena was great.
Met her a comicon, she's the biggest sweetheart 💗
I love me some Lucy Lawless 🔥🔥🔥
I remember looking forward get the latest episode, the opening theme song is still one of my favorites.
Xena looks even more like a badass
I agreed
Lucy Lawless sexy still
I liked this show as a kid! Couldn´t stand it to miss one single episode!
Athea wow is just beautiful. Then and now
Lucy lawless looked so damn hot then, and she aged well and still looks good now 😍👍
Awesome vid! Most look great!!!
I never recognised Homelander in Xena, now that is a shock.
Lucy is just beautiful!
She is very beautiful?
She never was.
@@dermagnus8482 Piss-poor attempt at rage-baiting.
Two or three people are even better now. Most of them are just fine, but a few are not recognizable...
I think most of the male cast aged quite well.
@@elysiana8889no lol 😂

I remember Kevin Smith's passing too, it was not just a grief but a nasty shock. He was so young. 😞
Wow Hudson Leick, Adrienne Wilkinson, Paris Jefferson, Kate Elliott, and Victoria Pratt have not aged at all.
*Truly one of the greatest shows of all time*
Xena, truly Lawless.
Lucy Lawless and Danielle Cormack are fabulous actors and are very talented and beautiful ladies
Was a big Hercules and Xena fan back in the day.
they all have aged quite gracefully.
Wow. Charles looks very dashing.
Never realized Homelander was in Xena...
The angels got better looking. Bruce Campbell is still a cutie.
♥️ awesome video! ♥️
Michael Hurst looks better than he did in his before days.
R I P Kevin Smith ❤
I remember watching this shows back when I was younger.
Such a great show wow 30 years? I was 12 and loved this show soooo much.
Love her and the show!
They all look good
Eli went from Jesus to Santa 😂
I wish they would have also added other photos and credits to what they've been working on since then
Lucy still looks great!
I agreed
Never knew that Cupid was one of the boys...
Karl Urban also played Julius Caesar in the series and looked FAR better....the bleached blond/black stubble look for Cupid was just vile.
no comment about Antony Starr {Homelander}
You’d be shocked then that Young Iolaus from “Young Hercules” spin-off played Fili in The Hobbit and Ryan Gosling played Young Hercules in that same show.
A lot of them aged REALLY well, others... not so much... sad for those lost 😢
Bruce looks awesome!
I agreed with you
So many great new Zealand actors!
General Hospital fans, Charles Mesure is on General Hospital as Jack, that picture of him currently is actually his General Hospital pic
I Loved this show growing up!
Cool video
Yeah
I certainly remember Karl Urban and Antony Starr. Billy butcher and Homelander The Boys!
Holy smokes, who knew Homelander was on Xena...Wow
Everyone looks prettier when they are holding a cat.
1996? I was 8 years old. I will be 37 in a few weeks. Time flew by!!
I loved this video very much then.
Nice Burmese cat ❤
You did Lucy dirty with that clickbait picture.
I was a teenager when the show was on and I never missed an episode. Renee O'Connor was one of my first real teenage crushes. Victoria Pratt doesn't look like she's aged a day; Trace Adkins hit the lottery when he married her.
I just gotta say it, some of these actresses as well as the male actress has really aged well Charles is looking great.
Hate it when they mispronounce some characters names😢
Beautiful ❤
William Gregory Lee also aged very well. Meow.😻
Lucy Lawless will always be amazing
7:21 no way that Homelander. I remember the face but didn't know that was him back then. Lol.
So many TV Shows need to be on BLU RAY!!!!!!!!!
Omg I watch this since India 😂❤
I was 9 years old when I started watching xena
I'm gonna admit it, being a young swedish boy seeing Lucy and Renee, i had a crush on both of them. i liked Renee especially because as i young teen i was still redheaded so i thought there was some connection there.
Danielle is still very pretty.
Who knew that Homelander and Billy Butcher knew each other from 30 years eariler? Bet they never saw this coming!
Victoria Pratt is still beautiful.
I'd like to see prequel tv series about young evil xena just like they did with young Sheldon young Hercules or I'd like to see daughter of eve name after xena it would be great story passing on legacy hero warrior princess?

I don't like to see beautiful women getting old, their beauty should be eternal !!! Time is a killer !!!
Marton still looks handsome.
I thought Kevin Sorbo and Michael Hurst both died
I know the actor that played Ares is dead due to an accident before having his own spinoff series.
No, Kevin Sorbo is alive but he went full MAGA sadly.
I love her so much
I didn't realise that Karl Urban was in Xena and hey... We're old. 😅
She would made a grate lawer or criminal investigator role in a series ❤ just thought!
Where's Meighan Desmond, who played Discord? Where is she?
And Michael Hurst looks fabulous!
No Jacqueline Kim (Lao Ma)? Lao Ma made Xena Xena.
Homelander and Butcher!
What about Claire Stansfield (Alti)?
Was wondering that too.
@@damianjblack Okay, she is included among the Xena cast on at least another site.
Danielle Cormack aka Ephiny aka BEA SMITH
Aka Alison from Shortland Street
I’m still surprised Vicky Pratt didn’t become a bigger star.
Timothy is still hot. I loved him on the show Supernatural.🥰🥰
I didn’t know Lassy from psych was in Xenia.
The boyz showrunner must of loved xena
Used to have a crush on Gabrielle. Lol
