I unironically love Xena (yes, am lesbian).
I love that it constantly makes fun of itself. As for Renee O'connor, I read somewhere that what happened was that they had her dressed all demurely in season 1 until production staff realised she was actually ripped. then, as an in joke, as the seasons went by they made her costume smaller and smaller/more and more revealing.
Also, I met Lucy Lawless once (in the context of an arts industry function) and she was lovely.
Gabrielle's incredible shrinking green bra, as it was known back in the day.
(And they always knew Renee was ripped. She's a kickboxer. But the character of gabrielle was supposed to be a demure soft sweet village girl, so they hid it as much as possible)
