This is a list of episodes that I remember disliking. There are alot that I am indifferent about, but had no specific feelings of dislike for, so these are the episodes which perhaps aren't not my least favourite, I dunno, but what I remember actively disliking.

1. Girls Just Wanna Have Fun - I can't watch it after about act 2. The bacchae costumes are horrendous, the camera work does my head in, the effects are awful. It is horrible, IMO. I do like the first couple of...

That is both just really cool and really quite interesting.

Other than MWF, these are in no particular order.

1. Married With Fishsticks: Okay, so they needed some Lucy lite episodes, but this is the best they could come up with? *growls* Renee coulda carried an ep without it needing to be....some....whatever the heck this thing is.

2. Ulysses: I'm a subber, so there is that. On the other hand, I can

Ditto to that, CF.

I think that GFC transplants Hercules into a Xena episode, and treats Hercules characters with the complexity and depth more characteristic of X:WP -- whereas Prometheus essentially transplants Xena and Gabrielle into a Hercules athenasword said:

Granted, but wouldn't God Fearing Child be just as bad if not more? You've got the Proxidicae to the Green Egg Men, both of whom are ridiculous. You've got not only a recast Solan, but a retconned Solan, more of Herc fighting off the gods or dealing with the gods than Xena's baby story, the reason for the ep in the first place. Herc is the reason her baby survived its first moments. At least with...

Good thing we've gone through S5 and are in the middle of S6 in our Ep-of-the-Week reviews; they've helped me recall several of my least favorite eps -

1) Heart of Darkness
2) Haunting of Amphipolis
3) Lifeblood
4) Married with Fishsticks
5) The Abyss (sorry, one warm-'n-fuzzy X/G moment doesn't make up for a load of cannibal dreck)
6) Purity
7) Back in the Bottle
8) The Titans
9) Send in the Clones
10) Kindred Spirits

Oh how I hate bad Xena episodes... let me count the ways....

1.Lifeblood
2.Mortal Beloved (I just don't like Marcus....)
3.Married With Fishsticks (love the Gabrielle/Joxer romance, but lack of Xena, mermaids, fish kids that would NOT have ever been conceived in a normal world, and bad New York accents just don't work for me.)
4.The Way (Not a big fan of the India episodes)
5.Dangerous Prey...

Well someone has to take you up on that, so... SMACK!

Daughter of Pomira is very close to my top 10 least favorites list too, way to screw up a great storyline (the Horde).

3. Lifeblood

1. Motherhood:
It is pure and simple loathing. It's not a bad episode, but hate is illogical and I really do hate it.

2. Key to the Kingdom:
Doesn't entertain me.

3. King Con:
Doesn't make no sense whatsoever, and not in a good way.

4. Mortal Beloved:
Cheesy effects and I disliked the handling of bringing Marcus back.

5. Orphan of War:...
