Only because she gained the power to kill the Gods, although even then, it shouldnt have worked. They could literally curse her without even being in the area. I have seen Ares make someone disappear in a burst of fire. Why couldnt they do that with Xena?
@@brentlionakaboldchamp that’s exactly what I’m saying. Zeus literally threw thunder bolts from the sky and killed all the golden hinds, valasca and calisto literally flicked their finger and Xena flew like 50 feet. I understand xena had to win because it’s her show but it’s like the gods powers were very limited when faced her. Artemis landed an arrow and xena pulled it out and threw it back and she died instantly. Xena took blast and got back up but one blast killed Poseidon. Makes no sense
@@antoineberry2977 Makes no sense at all...but of course the screenwriters wanted Xena to win, so suddenly the Gods forgot how to use their powers, i guess. Also....why cant the Gods bring Zeus back to life? Hades controls the underworld, and everyone that dies is under his control. Why cant they bring him back, and give him some ambrosia? Why cant any of the living Gods do so, because i have seen them bring the dead back to life. Usually, they need permission from Hades, but i think in this case, they would have it. Sometimes they take matters into their own hands, so none of it makes sense. Also, why didnt the Gods take the baby when Xena's mom had her while Xena wasnt around? Would have been easy to do. Why didnt they explode the entire building the baby was in? It seems crazy that they actually lost. They could even stop time, so im wondering why none of them did that....
This was hands down my favorite episode. I wish they had kept Callisto as an immortal instead of turning her into a goddess. I think it would have worked better within the world.
@@TheKonnoisseur11Because making Callisto a goddess really limited what they could do with her. Realistically as a god Callisto would have killed Xena instantly, but since they couldn’t kill Xena they had to turn Callisto from being a sinister, clever villain to a dumb goddess who gets buried under rocks time and time again. At least they redeemed the character in the Ides of March.
@@gnarlycat well remember Callisto doesn’t want simply kill XENA she wanted her to suffer like she did. The real question is why she didn’t kill Gabriel long ago (plot armor)
@@gnarlycat Also, remember that she once told Xena during the Dahak era that she could kill her in an instant but chose not to, instead opting to fight her with a sword. She doesn't desire Xena's death; rather, she wants to toy with her. Killing Xena would end her funny, and Xena would be reborn in a different body with no memories. etc. This dynamic is akin to the relationship between the Joker and Batman, where the Joker stole the powers of a fifth dimension imp and became a god, but even after attaining god-like powers he refrains from killing Batman. This was exemplified when Superman suggested to the Joker that, on a subconscious level, he doesn't truly wish for Batman's demise.
Velasca was a villain with a lot of potential, it is a shame they wouldn’t bring her back. Callisto was freed from the lava-pit by Hope, any other being could had also freed Velasca. Wish we would had seen more scenes with Melinda Clarke versus Hudson Leick & Lucy Lawless 🫶🏼
Callisto would rise to the surface again regardless of how she went down in this episode. Velasca however, would go on to spend eternity rock solid, never to see the day of light again. She could've been freed just like Callisto, but she was just too destructive to reason with, and would've likely been an unnecessary burden on the main villains of the third season, and disposed of again for it.
Actually if Kevin had not died suddenly and tragically as he did Velasca's returns was going to be the reunion episode then Melinda got on OC and Lucy was on Tarzan also felt not enough time had passed but needing to beat Velasca would have been the reason Gabrielle went to bring xena back see with out Ares being there to help it kinda just would not have made sense though I suppose Aphrodite could have tried i just don't see any of the surviving Gods given a hoot the way Ares would have
My all time favorite episode, favorite moment especially when Callisto says her epic line flips over Valasca and we hear Callisto's Wrath of Callisto play l...so epic, one of the best villains ever
OMG this was my favorite episode and prob my favorite fight of all besides every time Xena and Callisto fought lol Velasca made such a great villain I would’ve loved to see her come back for a rematch against Callisto. I always got a kick out of how Callisto was willing to wait for Velasca to dig her self out of those rocks so she could fight her again and take the ambrosia. 😂
While letting Callisto become a God was a means to an end to get rid of Valesca I have to wonder how much Xena regretted this decision later on when Callisto helps kill Solan ☹️
No because it was Xena’s plan and it worked she defeated them both, it’s interesting Xena and Callisto are working together in this scene though only time it ever happens
Hudson is what made me want to watch this show. It kind of sucked once she was redeemed. It made sense for Callisto's story arch, but once you lose that dynamic it's never the same.
I remember seeing this when I was a kid Xena and Calisto teaming up kinda and got excited because I knew they had major beef Lol it was just storytelling at its finest
I still like it. Yes it is cheesy. But the stories and plots are the reasons why I believe it still has a following. I know the special effects are extremely.... "Dated" but I always enjoyed Hercules and Xena because of the stories.
“You don’t just kill me and walk away.” Hudson is brilliant. This episode is absolutely a favourite.
Yup I actually bought this episode it has so many divas !
My Favourite too❤
Callisto is literally one of the best villains ever written and created. She was so insane and evil.
I agreed
I Agree
And So Beautiful!!!
For real. I loved her character. I forgot how great this show and Hercules were.
You loved to hate her.
The way Hudson's eyes sell how excited Callisto is at 2:30 is perfect. Callisto is just loving every minute of it.
Because Xena is working with her not fighting her for once
@@James.chalmersI remember the excitement in Callisto’s eyes when she was watching Xena work the ladders haha
She’s a great character!
LOL and then the scream ruined it hahahaha
Velascia: and who are you?
Callisto: I'm insulted.
ROFL!!!
Well you don't just kill me and walk away you know.
Xena! Your little playmate doesn't know who I am! She doesn't like to talk about me...
Imagine how that would have played out if Velasca had known who Callisto was
Man, this was so good back in the day. I couldn't wait to watch Xena.
Callisto definitely was a top tier villainess!
One of my favourite episodes! This episode was completely filled and lead by strong women only. Iconic! Trailblazing! ♥️
Yesss I loved every minute
One of the best sword fight in the series. Velasca is tough, they had to triple team her to win.
Badass!
Always LOVED this episode and fight scene. Xena pulling her sword on Velasca gives me chills!! ⚔️
Classic!!! I remember watching these every week when I was little back when they were first airing on cable, great work!!
It’s crazy how Xena went from needing help to fight valasca to taking on all the Olympian gods by herself.
Only because she gained the power to kill the Gods, although even then, it shouldnt have worked. They could literally curse her without even being in the area. I have seen Ares make someone disappear in a burst of fire. Why couldnt they do that with Xena?

@@brentlionakaboldchampAres wouldn't let the Gods dust Xena, trust me. That's why he had her back at the end of it
@antoineberry2977 That's why she's Xena: Warrior Princess. Don't test her or she'll show you 😄
“You must have a death wish!”
“You know, it’s funny. I think I do.”
😂😂
This was special! Not every day Xena and Callisto team up.
Callisto was so unhinged 😂 she really was an excellent villain
Xena and Hercules the legendary journey were the only shows I actually enjoyed watching with my family
This was hands down my favorite episode. I wish they had kept Callisto as an immortal instead of turning her into a goddess. I think it would have worked better within the world.
Why do you thinks so
Is a goddess not immortal?

Callisto should have had her own show
There wouldn't have been a cast for her to work with cause she would have killed everyone eventually! xD
@@TopKirby8305 or she could’ve been good

Me too! I wish they brought her back
The actress Melinda Clarke was already on another TV show so she was completely booked
They did want to. Melinda was just too busy at the time.
Me too.
lol Callisto is plan to have Velasca collaborate with her to defeat Xena backfired after warning Velasca is so hilarious.
True 😂 xena’s plan worked though
My fave episode!🖤
Callisto was so amazing!
Imagine tara and callisto together. Whoa!!!
0:24 Velasca: you must have a death wish
Callisto: you know whats funny? I think i do 😂
Callisto was easily one of the best parts about Xena
My fav episode of the ENTIRE series…. 3 incredible women actress who all played iconic female warriors. All did so amazing.
Yeah I agree my favourite scene is the bridge one at the end
Callisto was soo evil but jesus she was hot!
Right?! Love Hudson Leick's acting as her. 😍
She hate Xena because of her family’s death
Callisto was one of the greatest villains ever created in any series.
Callisto would rise to the surface again regardless of how she went down in this episode. Velasca however, would go on to spend eternity rock solid, never to see the day of light again. She could've been freed just like Callisto, but she was just too destructive to reason with, and would've likely been an unnecessary burden on the main villains of the third season, and disposed of again for it.
En realidad querían regresarla pero la actriz Melinda clarke tenía otros proyectos
“Spend eternity rock solid” that made me laugh 😂 you are right though
Actually if Kevin had not died suddenly and tragically as he did Velasca's returns was going to be the reunion episode then Melinda got on OC and Lucy was on Tarzan also felt not enough time had passed but needing to beat Velasca would have been the reason Gabrielle went to bring xena back see with out Ares being there to help it kinda just would not have made sense though I suppose Aphrodite could have tried i just don't see any of the surviving Gods given a hoot the way Ares would have
That is true, however in one of the future episode it was stated that she was in the underworld, which never made sense to me since she is a god.
Hope freed Callisto... and likely only did so because she was easier to control/manipulate.
This is my most watched Xena episode 😂
Thank you for posting this.
Callisto is so hot, she's perfect!!!!!
THE Julie Cooper from RIVERSIDE?!!
Is that Melinda Clarke?
yes
Xena warrior princess is awesome I still love this show it is great! Calisto is just as beautiful as xena i love them both great characters
I've had a crush on Melinda Clarke for a while now.
Callisto, Velasca and Alti, the best villain 😊
Hudson/Calisto is great I Love the Character
Back in 90s and 00s women looking stunning and love watching them fight
One of the best fights they did.
My all time favorite episode, favorite moment especially when Callisto says her epic line flips over Valasca and we hear Callisto's Wrath of Callisto play l...so epic, one of the best villains ever
I Love xena princess guerreira. 👸💖
Was my favorite episode growing up
Gabrielle and Callisto were my top 2 crushes ❤️

I remember as a kid watching this episode and wishing that it was me eating the ambrosia.
I remember this episode. Love ❤️ this series when I was a kid.

The thing is, it was a good plan, and Callisto would have stayed buried for all eternity but she was freed by Dahak's daughter.
I have to start to watch this t.v. show again
I guess gods can be taken out by a few rocks😊. I miss this show.😊
Remember she had just gained her powers earlier in the episode and she was still getting accustomed to them
Lucy Lawless - my heroine in plastic armour :)
Xena and Callisto fighting together are like Goku and Vegeta fighting together. So amazing
I always used say, if they ever did a Wonder Woman movie cast Lucy Lawless, she was perfect
Xena is better
This episodes has all the divas!!!
THE DIVAS!!!
@@coreychristian2312 haha yass
xena warriors princess Callisto is so amazing
This was so dope back in the day, I used to record episodes of Xena on vhs. One of the best shows ever.
Its goodsess you are bests in xena warrior princess 😌👍👍👍✨✨✨
Hudson is what made me want to watch this show. It kind of sucked once she was redeemed. It made sense for Callisto's story arch, but once you lose that dynamic it's never the same.

I like that she found redemption by the end of the series. Didn't she became like a God or diety for good or something like tha?
Xena in the streets fighting gods casually 😆 queen
Love it!! Callisto is the best villain ever
I miss this show! I wish there was a reboot with a new generation like Xena's daughter/granddaughter and Gabrielle's child.
it would be a trainwreck I'm sorry to say.
@@Phoenixesper1you never know
Velesca: Do you have a death wish?
Callisto who actually has a death wish: OMG, how did you know??
I only watched Xena if Callisto was in the episode. Hudson was exquisite.
That's Shernice I'm Looking For A Short Man.
Callisto has the problem of being the only competent villains, who still has to deal with...other incompetent ones.
Callisto is the sort of girl I want in my life...😍
2024 who is watching lmao
best episode. callisto comes back
Callisto & XENA WOULD BEEN A DOPE TAG TEAM
This was my fave espisode!
Now how did her chakram get over there when it was in the cave?
What did Gabrielle’s little stick do when she threw it
Callisto is the ancient worlds version of harley quinn
Ouch fake rocks or not THATS GOTTA HURT!!
Wait... She is Julie Copper, The OC Marisa's mother!
Rocks…deadly kryptonite to gods. I love these earlier episodes where Callisto is wickedly clever…before they turned her into a dumb goddess.
She got out of it however was defeated along with Callisto later in the episode
@@James.chalmers Yes I’m aware, but in later episodes Callisto as a goddess gets impaired by rocks on multiple occasions.
@@gnarlycat you must be right then rocks are a weakness to them oh and lava 😂
I think this was recommended to me because I play Raid Shadow legends and I bought her battle pass.
As a kid, i had a HARD times watchin this episode. Than gabrielle showd up, and everything was back in normal. 🤣
I omost forget about her two actually lol death wish is sherman😂3.57
"It's not gonna take forever"
I could let so many things go without questioning them, but the one that I could never was, why did Gabby throw her staff? What was the point?
to distract Velasca as the chakram bounced around and made the rocks fall on her
It hits one of the rock pile things. I don't think it was super necessary but they probably wanted Gabby to do something
Lucy was one fine specimen of a woman
LOVE ME SOME CALLISTO
Awesome 👍🤩😍💖💗💓❤
Video Serial Xena Super ❤️❤️😊😊 .
Calisto was my favorite
I can’t believe I liked this show now seeing how cheesy it was! The good oh 90s lol
I still like it.
Yes it is cheesy. But the stories and plots are the reasons why I believe it still has a following. I know the special effects are extremely.... "Dated" but I always enjoyed Hercules and Xena because of the stories.
is Xena based off of Wonder Woman?
Xena hit the Jackpot and Melinda was dead and buried in one. Sad, she was the hottest of the four ladies in the scene.
Three on one. Hardly fair
Calisto has every right to go after xena , xena killed calisstos family
omg i love kallisto so hot
Callisto mostrou nesse episódio quem é a rival ferrenha de Xena. Ela não tinha medo de nada e muito menos de ninguém desde que era mortal.
Velasca is too cocky.
It became her downfall in the end
sangat cantik disaat muda dan sekarang beliau sudah tua
If I eat a jellyfish, will I be a god too ?
XENA!!!!!!
Goodbye Cena!
Hollywood keeps telling me this doesn't exist. Why you guys keep posting non existant videos ?
I don’t remember Gabriella being this useless. She really is just the girlfriend.
Hello insulted!
Callisto was the true daughter of xena
