I am SO OVER anti-rebooters giving me shit on facebook

i just want more xena.

You cool,don’t let em keep you down

I want Xena to be like Superman: a franchise so embedded in the dna of pop culture that everyone knows the basics of “former warlord seeking redemption traveling with her plucky bard lover,” with endless reimaginings, I want it to live beyond just being one cult show from the 90s, I want it to be like, Sherlock Holmes persistent, with new versions for every new generation of young lady gays, ugh, I want it baaaad.

Preach it 

All the above. 

I think we all want to see LL/ROC back, it would be beautiful, hope it happens – but I think we also want this to become a new franchise that will last a long time. Call it a reboot or whatever, but there will have to be a new Xena/Gabrielle. 

Sadly, I wish NBC showed more enthusiasm for this. Just not seeing it.  With Tapert and Co working on AvED, will they veer off to return to Xena? 

I do think the potential Wonder Woman franchise has probably thrown this project off.  If they were serious on this, I think they would be moving with nostalgia marketing (license some damn Funkos), a blu ray box set, and getting some hype together to build critical mass toward a new series.  Because this hasn’t happened, a new series (even a mini-film) seems a long ways off.
