She was doing a stunt for the Tonight Show when that happened. They had to write her out of several episodes until she was recovered enough to come back. I remember about this. They had to reshoot the ending of Destiny so Xena would appear dead and be stuck between life and death and it is how they created the Quest. In addition to For Him, the Bell Toils being light on Xena. I remember reading about that somewhere Tim. Still Hudson did a good job in the mean time and seeing Ares mortal was fun to watch. Hudson did so well as Xena, I didn't notice it wasn't Lucy.

I literally just rewatched both episodes online last weekend after we all started talking about them which I enjoyed seeing again. I also saw the previous episode 'The Quest' with Velesca (Melinda Clarke) in it too. I then saw both episodes when Hudson played Xena after lucy injured herself 'Intimate Stranger' and 'Ten Little Warlords' when Ares losses his godhood which was a welcome surprise seeing how well Hudson played Xena. And then finally 'Miss Amphipolis' when Xena enters the beauty contest because that was another stand out episode for me. Great to hear. I love all these episodes too. Love Miss Amphipolis. I'm going to have to rewatch these, so I can join you and Jean discussing them.

I've seen Lucy Lawless in a few American productions. Although a Kiwi, she can do a good American accent.

She sure does.
She was also on the Battlestar Galactica reboot, she played a Cylon.

I love Xena (hence it's on my list of favorite ended shows) and have seen Lucy Lawless in a few shows mainly Battlestar Galactica and Parks and Recreation.
I haven't watched it for many years though. I should though.

I should though. I loved Lucy on Parks and Recreation. Well your not alone, so many of us here enjoy Xena it seems. When I started this thread, I was thinking nobody here would remember or have seen it. Glad to see it wasn't the case. I saw Hudson in a plane type film once also called Hijacked Flight 285. Interesting. Was it a good film?

Do you know what it's been a long time since I saw Hijack Flight 285 so I can't rightly remember if I enjoyed it or not.
