Everytime I see the end of the final episode my heart clenches and I want to cry. I've seen it many many times and I still get the same strong reaction everytime. I wish they hadn't killed her and instead ended it on a happy note.
well as sad as this is to say, they wouldn't be able to make the Xena series start from where they left because Aries is dead!:'( for those who don't know, Aries died in 2002:'(
THERE IS A XENA IN ALL OF US AND WE WILL ALWAY REMEMBER HER!!!!
sorry i have to go and sit in a corner and cry now
The fact of Xena dying in the final episode wasn't what enraged the fans for the most part...it was having her die for a stupid reason (to get to Yodoshi, when we knew that earlier she had "died" to get to Mephistopheles), having her remain dead for an even stupider one, for listening to Akemi over Gabrielle, with the result that Gabrielle was left alone in the world. Oh, and Rob Tapert a few months earlier saying he wasn't going to kill them (X&G) again.
Xena only *thought* that the spirits of Higuchi would never find peace if she was returned to life because Akemi told her so...and (how convenient!) the two people who might have said that Akemi was wrong had just been killed off.
Also, Akemi insisted on spending the valuable time to give Gabrielle that ginormous tattoo, which delayed Gab from getting Xena's body, burning it, and dumping the ashes in the fountain, LONG before Yodoshi could have shown up to make that tat useful.
great video. In case you didn't know there is a Xena movie campaign 2011 on Facebook. please join them so we can get a movie made once and for all. thanks!
Its a tragic after all. Robert must be crazy to kill the hero. You know, you hurt lots of fans' hearts. That sorrow prevails longer. Anyway you created xena beautifully. And thanx a lot for that. And please, please,please start xena again. Please I beg you do it before they grow old. I wish you will have the strength and mind focus to start new series of xena. May triple gems bless all xena family to get toghether..! A Sri Lankan.
Was it Lucy that did't want to play Xena anymore? Or was it the writers who didn't want to write anymore? I just know nobody could replace Lucy as Xena. Or Renee as Gabrielle. Or Hudson Leick as Callisto.=)
@ylvira No I think that the show ended coz it's was meant to end eventualy..But as the up coming movie, it would be no movie at all coz they have a legal promblem about who has the rights of the show ect..
i just finished watching the series, and i can tell you i cried. it was an amazing ending even thgh i didnt want it to end that way...but i loved the kissing scene, very beautiful ^_^
@dickiesue yesssssssssssssssssssssssssss!!! you are right! he was jelousy of the way that xena and gaby look, he is not cute, beautiful and atractive like gaby....is not fail
The first few times I watched this when i got the DVDs I cried...just reliving the memories growing up watching Xena & just being in my own world for an hour. It was sad to see the show end but Xena will always live on!!
I feel sad about the ending, but then I remember an episode (set in the future) in which Xena reincarnate in Joxer's body, and she is together with Gab. so it means that they will certainly be together in all their future lifes, and that's make me feel less disappointed =)
rip xena right? lol i watched the first of couple of seasons when i was like 8, and grew up watching this show. . .im now 18 and still love it lol its one of those things ul never forget. . .shame i never got to see the last two seasons tho :( i feel guilty for that hahaha
it sucks that xena had to die but it made sence because xena and gabrielle did all they could together. and lucy and renee worked hard for that show. the series was ok all in all but no were near as good as it was the first season. besides gabrielle is able to take care of herself now and she should. i think a spinoff for gabrielle and iolaus would have ben good.
Akemi lied, and all those souls weren't depending upon her being really dead. Akemi never was trustworthy. I think that Xena got hoodwinked by a cute manipulative young evil girl... who had an emotional "hook" from the past. Xena would have NEVER left Gabrielle like that. NEVER!!!
Agreed! I'm guessing Akemi was jealous of Xena and Gabby's relationship.I bet she thought Xena wouldn't be able to move on after her death. So seeing them together made her want to split them up.
If it was a trick then I think that they actually had until next sunset, therefore it really was Xena on that boat and Gabby was holding and empty urn out of sentimental reasons (dunno which ones lol).
And it was all a trick so they could go and live out their lives in peace.
I never saw the end of the series so untill now I didn't know they killed off Xena. True lot of Fans are dissapointed with the end of the series. but at the same time it was different then say the Heros walking off into the sunset. which is the normal thing to end a series (more or less)
I think I need that DVD.. the last episode was never broadcasted here after the initial run.. Which I never saw.... :( And I can't find it on the net *sniff*
I was upset that she died but Xena knew if she came back the spirits wouldnt be at ease. If I was Gabrielle I probably would have been selfish just this once and brought her back to life for her. Xena always saved Gabby,,so Gabby should have gotten a chance. Oh maybe they could have died in each others arms!
i'm agreed wth u, they should at least die together, in each others arms. What I didn't liked so much is the way they made Xena die... cut her head......... no way!
Im a huge fan of the series, and a movie would be a dream come true for thousands of fans, but for me a great Xena movie would be impossible without the amazing Kevin Smith (Ares). Dont get me wrong Id love to see Xena and Gabrielle on the big screen. I just cant see anyone except Kevin portray the Great God of War (and the chemistry between him and Lucy was amazing)
I can almost see why they would want to end the show. Mind you I loved it with all my heart (xenaholic) but they did it all. However, HOW they ended it was bull. almost NO xena/gab together in the last two eps. And gab going on alone? they should have been able to die together. I still want a movie!
Five chakrams out of five. Well done. I hope Rob Tapert knows how many hearts he broke when he filmed FIN. I refused to watch it for the longest, but I finally did. I like watching the behind the scenes stuff better. I like watching how they made it more than the actually eps.
Good question. Maybe they wanted to be sure that the fans wouldn't try to get another season. But I think that they could make a movie from it. I would love it! And of course the same main characters. ;)
@buffypii i think xena isnot the main character, its gabrielle. But as one could see, there is a place they go where there is a way to revive the dead, Egypt, as i like to go there too ;(
they should have made a epilogue, the ending is vague for all the other characters

Both Xena and Gabrielle died multiple times in the series.
Xena isn't gone forever. Gabrielle will return to bring her back-
due to some type of visitation (like Marcus visited Xena) or because
a god told her to, or because of some situation that only Xena could
help with.
