Summary: Excellent season, just a comment about the subtitles
Review: Season 4 is an excellent season. The way they introduced the season finale through Xena's vision on episode Adventures on the Sin Trade, kept us all intrigued during the whole season. The India episodes, especially Between the Lines are on my all time favorite.

However, there are 2 things I didn't like about this season set. First, it doesn't have as many extras as season 3 set, and second, once again, nobody has thought about non English speakers, who live in Latin America and Spain. I'm from Chile, and my English is not the best, but at least I can understand most of the episodes, but I'm sad for all my friends that simply don't speak or understand the English language. No matter how much they want to buy the DVD episodes, they won't, 'cause they just won't understand them.

I read the reviews about season 5, and I saw no subtitles are included once again, and I guess it will be the same for season 6. I wish someone could make something about the Spanish, French, Portuguese, fans around the world.

Summary: I love it!!!
Review: Season 4 is filled with great episodes for any Xena fan. Ides of March is one of my favorite episodes - the weaving of the Xena and Julius Caesar stories is so well done. That's what makes this boxed set so disappointing. The DVD are made cheaply and of poor quality. (I'm writing this review regarding the 3 seasons that I bought: 2, 3, 4) 1st the color landscape of the menus is so horrible that you can't see what you have selected. The basic DVD layout of menus looks thrown together. The dvds are obviously made on the cheap. The disks stick, skip, and revert to the wrong menu and I had to ship bak 5 bad disks so far (at my expense)for replacement by Anchor Bay. Some don't play very well but the skips are minimal and I don't feel like paying the postage, so I've kept them. The extras in seasons 3&4 are more substantial - more interviews, commentaries, extra shorts etc. I tend to be a big fan of audio commentary and listening to Lucy, Renee, and Rob reminisce is nice. The Bruce Campbell/Ted Raimi Cabin Fever in Season 3 is quite funny. I love Xena and wish that another company had taken on the project. So disappointing. Content - B, Quality - F.

Summary: Last Great Season of Xena
Review: Season Four of Xena is high-quality television. The opening of the season resolves the cliffhanger from Season Three's "Sacrifice" quite successfully (with the excellent two-parter "Adventures in the Sin Trade, in which villainess Alti is introduced). The season-long story arc is also introduced very early on, and adds an interesting element of impending doom to the fourth season.
All in all, Season Four is a great season, full of both action-packed and humorous episodes. Though the middle episodes are the weak point, it begins and ends with a bang. "The Ides of March" might not top "Sacrifice," but it does its darndest to try. Unfortunately, the series veered in the wrong direction in the next two seasons, and would really only recapture its former glory with the Season Five finale and the Rheingold trilogy of Season Six.

Summary: xena continues to get better and better
Review: The 4th season of xena is great with the introduction of alti in the episodes sins of the trade. The return of callisto and gabriels evil daughter hope make the season all much better. The introductions of different gods in different places, besides Greece, was also great. Towards the end of the season they introduce different characters like Eli and Amourice. Ephiny dies. And a huge cliffhanger delivers the deaths of ceaser xena and gabriele. And the DVD contains TEN DISCS. This dvd should be bought by fans and non fans

Rating: 5 stars

More great episodes of dramatic, humorous and fight scenes! With opening episodes of Xena dealing with what the last season brought and some really even more shocking ending episodes for season 4. Buy this one today!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: more than advertized
Review: This box set is a break from the usual 6 disc set, with bonus material and all the episodes, including an extra CD-ROM, the volume spans 10 discs! With improved encoding, color correction and clean up, Xena never looked so good. This season features a special treat with a peak at her bare bottom in one episode, and come on, that is what makes this show so great, beauty and brawn like only Xena can deliver! (...)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AWESOME SEASON!!
Review: This season kicks off with adventures in the Sin trade where the long awaited conclusion to the Sacrifice takes place as Xena travels to Siberia to find Gabrielle and battles the evil Alti. Then you can watch the comedy Family Affair when Xena and Gabrielle battle illlnesses and have to battle a schythian army. This season includes the episodes "crusader, past imperfect, if the shoe fits, paradise found, devi, and deja vu all over again. This is a spectacular season that goes more in depth with Xena and Gabrielles friendship and leaves you hanging on the end for season five. This is a must have for any Xena fan!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The fourth season of my beloved show!!
Review: This video set contains:
001. Adventures in Sin Trade:
This was a good episode. We get to see more from Xena's evil past, which is always great! (LOL!) I loved the range of emotions we get to see in this episode. I don't think I've ever seen Xena so sad... Broke my heart..I didn't like the Anokin story though. In my opinion it belittled Xena and Gabrielle's relationship.. And since when does Evil Xena care about anyone but herself?
002.Adventures in Sin Trade II:
Not as good as the first one, I got more of a "bad trip"feeling,like I was watching the Xena version of "Requiem for a dream"...
003.A Family Affair:
Fantastic episode!! Very emotional and well done. Renee does a great job playing both Hope and Gabrielle. I'm glad we (finally) get to see Xena interact with Gabrielle's parents... I always wondered about that...
004.In Sickness and in Hell:
This is actually the very first episode I've ever seen of the show.(Now I've seen them all). It may not be the best episode made, but I found it quite funny and loved the Xena and Gabrielle dynamic in this episode.

005.A Good Day:
To this day this, this episode always moves me. Love Xena's intensity in battle. Great strategy episode.
006.A Tale of Two Muses:
Liked this one much better than "Forgiven"(season 3, also featuring Tara). Good Xena and Gabrielle interaction and I totally LOVED Auto!!(King of thieves)
007.Locked Up & Tied Down:
Xena tries to atone by going to jail... Solid episode, great performances by our leading ladies.
008.Crusader:
Ouch... I REALLY don't like Najara.

009.Past Imperfect:
Gotta love EvilXena!! I truly enjoyed this episode, the Xena/Borias dynamic was great!
010.The Key to the Kingdom:
Although I love Auto (and there were a few good jokes in this episode), I didn't like this episode.. Don't like Meg much either (never did).And where's Gabrielle? I'm not watching this episode any time soon again...
011.Dauther of Pomira:
The return of the Horde... This episode can't hold a candle to "The price" (season 2), where the Horde was first introduced. Not a great episode.

012.If the shoe fits:
Very funny episode, a re-telling of Cinderella (Tyrella, in this episode). Great Xena and Gabrielle interaction. Didn't like the little princess, though...
013.Paradise found:
Gabrielle down the rabbit hole, just like Alice in Wonderland.... Didn't like the way they portrayed Xena's dark side. Lucy Lawless would have portrayed it beautifully without all the physical changes, in my humble opinion.
014.Devi:
Great episode!! Renee does a great job as the manipulative Tataka.Here, we get to meet Eli for the first time.
015.Between the lines:
Another wonderful episode! Here we learn that the souls of Xena and Gabrielle are forever connected. Beautiful... Also, Gabrielle loses her "golden fleece".

016.The way:
Xena and Gabrielle find their way... Loved the Krishna story line.
017.The play's the thing:

Gabrielle writes and directs her own play. Pretty funny episode.
018.The convert:
The return of Najara... Liked this one better than "Crusader"
Joxer has trouble with his first kill...
019.Takes one to know one:
Gabrielle's birthday with a twist.... I don't like Discord one bit..

020.Endgame:
Wonderful episode!! Very well written and acted. Too bad that Ephiny had to die... She's one of my favorite amazons.
021.Ides of March:
WOW!!! What an incredible episode!! One of my all time favorites. Xena's dreaded vision comes true...
022.Deja Vu all over again:
I'm not a fan of this kind of "über" episodes, but it's quite funny. (didn't like it at all after a first viewing, but it grows on you...) I liked "Soul possession" better (season 6) which is kind of a continuation of this episode...

This season had its ups and downs but I still liked it a lot. Hope you will too! Battle on!

Rating: 5 stars
