ok. it's STILL terrible but by the end of the first episode it kinda made me enjoy it. like the really terrible dialog got better some how. maybe because i started to only half pay attention. i dunno.

I made a note for myself earlier to grab it from the interwebz when I get home from work. The general consensus is that it's horribad.

I enjoyed it, it's like of Xena and 300 mixed together. I'll likely watch it religiously, might be off to a rocky start but has some serious potential already.

I was actually thinking of paying the subscription to Starz to catch this show. I'm now assuming it's not worth the money. But that's good because I hated the thought of actually paying for the worst premium station out there. We'll pay for HBO or Showtime, but not Starz.

That is about all I heard that was good about it. Lots of nude scenes.

Holy crap the acting was terrible! You'd think that Starz would actually get some decent actors for their new TV Series since they're trying to break into that area. I will watch one or two more episodes because I think the story has promise but if the acting is that bad I don't think I can stand it much longer.

If I was an actor I would be distracted by all the T&A and probably not do a good job either.

The only guy that can actually act is Craig Parker and he is in Legend of the Seeker.



I didn't even realize until I just looked him up that he was in LOTR as well.

i love her. i think it's more to do with her being written into lesbian dna than it is anything else though. i am genetically programmed to worship the ground cylon xena walks on.

I finally got around to watching the first episode. Wow, was I supposed to be laughing all through the fighting scenes? All that computer generated blood flying all over the place. It was so stinking comical.

The second episode was a little better so that gives me some hope for the third.
