Anyway, I still think that there should be more cross-fertilization between the two fandoms -- it would be nice, for instance, to incorporate more Hercules material into the Xena conventions, since Hercules conventions are no longer exist. I think it would draw more Herc fans to Xena conventions; I'm sure there are many fans who, like Hercules Hunt, like both shows but prefer Hercules and feel that the conventions have little to offer... ]]> feeds@yuku.com (LadyKate63) http://xena.yuku.com/sreply/420889 Sat, 02 Aug 2008 01:43:17 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Xena affecting Hercules success ]]> http://xena.yuku.com/reply/420879/t/Xena-affecting-Hercules-success.html#reply-420879 Herc begins to take more chances in S3, providing some character development and then experimenting with genuine angst in the Hind Triology.

I fixed the codes in your post because you put your own text inside the quote as well, I hope you don't mind.

I don't think there's any real evidence that Rob paid more attention to Xena because he was with Lucy. Didn't he admit at one point that X:WP was somewhat neglected during Season 5 because everyone was busy with other projects?

In fact he has been working steady since Hercules and Andromeda ended back to back. He's also made many guest appearances
while on both shows. He is also making more movies that I cannot even keep track of as well as other projects.
If you read the latest news on KS projects, it clearly shows he's staying quite busy and with diverse projects feeds@yuku.com (herculeshunt) http://xena.yuku.com/sreply/420683 Fri, 01 Aug 2008 18:18:15 GMT <![CDATA[ Re: Xena affecting Hercules success ]]> http://xena.yuku.com/reply/420593/t/Xena-affecting-Hercules-success.html#reply-420593
One thing that freaked me, is that Gabriella was about a head taller than Xena (in real life, but in TV life, Xena is about 4 heads taller than Gabriella.
