Xena Remake: Excited, or not excited?

[charliepanayi]

I'm apprehensively excited. I loved Xena back in the day, but I know a lot of these reboots/remakes suck to high heaven.
I swear by the old gods and the new I will never forgive the people involved if they smurf this up.

Pretty sure this reboot involves the original co-creator (who is also Lucy Lawless' husband). Plus Xena wasn't much good to start with anyway, it was just pure 90s cheese.

There's been one quote from the new writer they hired alluding to the fact that Xena is gay, people should probably wait for something more concrete than that. It's no different to this 'gaybaiting' one person here is criticising Star Wars for doing.
