Friend in Need Parts 1 & 2 (aka "fabric" episodes); 3. Escalating levels of sex being used as a tool; 4. Escalating levels of trashiness in character actions, clothing etc; 5. Lack of realisation of potential for storylines (eg Eve's Amazon heritage, the GOL as a malelovent force, the Twilight of the gods, Gabrielle as Ares' heir in season 5, Xena's choice to remain a warrior despite danger to her child and those she loved in season 5, etc); 6. Lack of Alexander the Great; 7. Decline in episode quality in later half of season 6; 8. Writers or TPTB insisting that Xena be completely infallable in later seasons aka "O Mighty Xena" despite Xena's blatant hypocritical and otherwise "bad" actions. Few other things, but the "good" way outweighs the "bad". Cheers, Haeph.

It got out of hand in the later years. Plot inconsistencies. Was it that hard for them to find a story editor, someone who could keep track of the plotlines? Too much gratuitious violence, especially in Season Six (can't complain about the nudity ). The severed head in AFIN was particularly tasteless.
