Aaaah, I agree with basically all of this! The Abyss was just awful; I remember waiting until I'd seen all of S6 before going back to watch it and then feeling like even the Xena/Gabrielle content wasn't enough to justify the horror that was the rest of it. It was just so violently unnecessary and offensive! Ugh. Makes me mad to even think about it. I agree with you about the Amazons, too. I remember wishing there had been more on the Eve/Varia dynamic, and also being sorry that Ephiny wasn't better written. It took me until the second or third rewatch to really like her.

NAJARAAAAAAAA, lord, she was so hot. She bugged me like hell but she was great to look at, ha. And I too wished Ares dead, but even earlier than Soul Possession. Ares was pretty erratically scripted, I always thought.

I also have trouble with The Debt, even now. We rewatched that arc recently and it was even more incomprehensible to me this time around. I just can't believe Gabrielle would ever have done that. Still, I was always so very glad that Xena really did kill Ming T'ien. I loved Lao Ma so much! I've always wanted to read a Lao Ma/Xena epic that explores their love and how it changed Xena, but I would so very much be there for M'Lila/Lao Ma too!
