Xena said, “There is a mode where the pipes seek neither to conquer the musician nor to be conquered by the musician.”
Gabhopper gave the pipes to Xena. “Please teach me this mystical mode.”
Xena dropped the pipes and crushed them under her boots.
And Gabhopper was enlightened!

Joxer Tries To Move On Gabrielle
Jox: “Hey, Gabby, what’s your sign?”
Gab: “Do not Enter”
Jox: “Hey, come on, we’re both here at this bar for the same reason”
Gab: “Yeah! Let’s pick up some chicks!”
Jox: “I know how to please a woman.”
Gab: “Then please leave me alone.”
Jox: “I want to give myself to you.”
Gab: “Sorry, I don’t accept cheap gifts.”
Jox: “I can tell that you want me.”
Gab: “Ohhhh. You’re so right. I want you to leave.”
Jox: “If I could see you naked, I’d die happy.”
Gab: “Yeah, but if I saw you naked, I’d probably die laughing.”
Jox: “Your body is like a temple.”
Gab: “Sorry, there are no services today.”
Jox: “I would go to the end of the world for you.”
Gab: “Yes, but would you stay there?”
Jox: “Your place or mine?”
Gab: “Both. You go to yours and I’ll go to mine.”
Jox: “How do you like your eggs in the morning?”

Starfleet is long overdue for a return to miniskirts and knee-high boots.

Gabrielle would make a good communications officer.
Xena’s prime directive: “Take the planet!”
Joxer would be good as one of those security guys in a red shirt.
“She’s gonna blow Captain!” takes on a whole new meaning.
If they met Apollo on the Planet of Lost Gods, Xena would kick his ass if puts the snatch on her ship.
Signs Gabrielle is President
When asked by reporters if she ever ate henbane-laced nutbread, she says she tried it but didn’t swallow.
She emerges from private “consultations” with Defense Secretary Xena to attend live press conferences sporting a glaring hickey.

TAKIN’ CARE OF ARGO
(Sung by Joxer the Mighty to the tune of “Takin’ Care of Business” by BTO):
I get up every morning
To Xena’s vocal warning
And take her damn horse to the city
I’m in charge of food and grooming
And it’s really got me fuming
For a warrior it’s quite beneath me
‘Cause if there’s some threat
You sure as heck can bet
That I will come and save the day
If you ever get annoyed
At me the stable boy
Take it up with Xena, okay?
I’ll be takin’ care of Argo, every day
Takin’ care of Argo, every way
Takin’ care of Argo, it gets old
Takin’ care of Argo, in every episode.

THE HEXADACTYLOUS ARE AMONG US
Xena: “Wait, I don’t know if you’re real or not.”
Gabrielle: “You don’t know if I’m real? This is my dream, I’m the only one who is real.”
Xena: “Tell me something about you I don’t know.”
Gabrielle: “How is that going to prove anything?”
Xena: “Morpheus can guess anything I know. Tell me something about you I don’t know.”
Gabrielle: “Very well … alright … nobody but my mother knows this, I had six toes on my right foot when I was born. Don’t look! It’s gone now.”
Xena: “It must be you. Yeah, it must be you.”
Do you realize, though, that had Gabrielle been born in Medieval times with a sixth toe that she would have been considered a witch and possibly burned alive for it? The things people used to do to each other in the name of religion (and, in some countries still do…).
Perhaps that statement applies to Gabrielle’s time and her parents had it removed for that reason.
Today people with six toes, the Hexadactylous (Hex`a*dac”tyl*ous, a. [Gr. ; six + finger: cf. F. hexadactyle.] (Zool.) Having six fingers or toes.) are increasingly tolerated by society. While there are still some increasingly discredited ex-six toes organizations like Hexodus International, recently great strides have been made. Since the ground-breaking 1995 episode “Dreamworker” where Gabrielle revealed her sixth toe, the hexadactylous have been elected to Congress, and some have even been ordained as Southern Baptist pastors.
CHAKRAM SHAVE
Gab won’t shave
That scratchy fuzz
She should worry
Lao Ma does
Chakram Shave!
Xena hasn’t
Treated Gab right
If Gab would shave
Then Xena might
Chakram Shave!
She played the flute
Had no B.O.
But her legs scratched
Xena let her go
Chakram Shave!
Does your lady
Misbehave
Grunt and grumble
Rant and rave?
Tame that bull with
Chakram Shave!
Unless your legs
Are stinger free
You’d better let
Your Honey be
Chakram Shave!
Gabby your skin
Keep it fitter
Or you won’t be
Xena’s sitter
Chakram Shave!
With Gab’s sleek legs
Pressed close to hers
Jeepers creepers
How Xena purrs
Chakram Shave!
Amazons buy it
Then apply it
Then advise
Their friends to try it
Chakram Shave!
In Cupid’s little
Bag of trix
Here’s the one
That clix with chix
Chakram Shave!
My first Xena episode was “Dreamworker”, which was actually the third episode of the new series. It aired in the week of Sept 18, 1995. I caught it through random channel-flipping (sort of the same way I found the L Word!). I had no idea a series about Xena existed, although I was familiar with the character from two episodes of Hercules that I had seen earlier in the year, one when she was evil and another when she was good. I missed the middle Herc ep of the Xena trilogy, “The Gauntlet”, where she made the conversion.
It turns out that having “Dreamworker” as my first episode was a fortuitous accident, because the earlier two shows “Sins of the Past” and “Chariots of War” (viewed for the first time somewhat later in reruns) seemed to be a little wobbly in retrospect. In “Dreamworker” we watch Xena come to terms with the dark side of herself, and form an integrated whole with the light side holding the reins, which gives her the strength-tempered-by-wisdom to triumph. Instantly I was hooked on the character of Xena…I cared about her, and I wanted to see what happened to her next.
Gabrielle happened to her next. Naturally the lesbian angle, handed with a lot of winking and nudging, didn’t hurt the show one dang bit. The whole bar scene in the 90’s was a lot of after-softball brewskies and Xena tapes rolling on the projection TV.
Like many television series, the first two seasons were a little shaky as everyone found their footing. Seasons three, four, and five were awesome. It should have ended there, because the show “jumped the shark” when Xena and Gabrielle came back from the dead after being crucified. That was almost as bad as Pam Ewing dreaming a whole season of Dallas. I hate it when they kill a character off and then just bring them back from the dead. People don’t come back from the dead. Death is defined as the irreversible cessation of life.
Xena was turned into an assassin of the Olympian gods on behalf of Eli, which is the name the writers used for Jesus so they wouldn’t offend anyone in Jesusland who were tuned in to see the lesbian stuff.
Okay! By the middle of the sixth season I just didn’t care anymore.

XENA BUNCH
Here’s the story, of a Warrior Princess,
Who expanded her home town’s buffer zone.
She traversed all the land with Joxer
But somehow she felt so all alone.
‘Til this one day when the Princess met her Gabby
And they knew it was much more than a hunch,
That these three must somehow form a family,
That’s the way they became the Xena Bunch!

XENA AS A SITUATION COMEDY
Gabby: I just invented a bar of soap six feet long.
Joxer: How do you lift it to lather yourself?
Gabrielle: I don’t. It’s an exact likeness of Xena. I just lay on it and slide up and down.
Xena: There are lots of thing more important than money.
Salmoneus: I’ll buy that.
Joxer: How did Gabby feel last night?
Xena: As much as ever!
Joxer: I got a real kick out of kissing Gabby last night.
Amarice: Any more than usual?
Joxer: Yeah, Xena caught me!
Joxer: What, in your opinion, is the height of stupidity?
Xena: How tall are you?
Gabrielle: Joxer is twice as dumb as I.
Xena: You mean, ‘Joxer is twice as dumb as me’
Gabrielle: He’s twice as dumb as both of us.
Joxer: Gabby is breathtaking!
Xena: Yeah, every few hours she stops talking and takes a breath.
Gabrielle: How do you like bathing beauties?
Joxer: I don’t know, I never bathed one.
Gabrielle: ::GASP!:: Where’s your swimsuit?
Xena: I don’t need one Gabby, it’s not that kind of dive!
Gabrielle: Do you prefer talkative women or the other kind?
Joxer: What other kind?
Xena: You’ve got acute appendicitis.
Gabrielle: Don’t get fresh. I asked what was wrong with me.
Gabrielle: Knock knock
Xena: For crying out loud, Gabrielle, we’re sleeping outdoors.
Gabrielle: I think your problem is that you’re afraid of girls.
Joxer: I’m not afraid of girls, I can lick any girl I ever met.
Gabrielle: You should get a girl who likes to do the things you do.
Joxer: What would I want with a girl who likes to whistle at other girls?
Gabrielle: Every time I take Joxer’s pulse it gets faster! What do I do?
Xena: Blindfold him.
Joxer: Can you give me something for my head?
Xena: I wouldn’t take it as a gift.
Meg: Joxer asked me to marry him and I said, ‘Yes!’
Gabrielle: Then I’d say you hit the jerkpot.
Gabrielle: Why did the chicken cross the road?
Xena: Enough with the Joxer jokes already.
