Episode entitled
"Oxymoron"
A drug dealing doctor named Eliza Glaser is murdered. Dr. Glaser was known in the clubs by
the nickname "Xena". She was writing fraudulent prescriptions for the highly
addictive painkiller Oxycodone. Hence the ep name "Oxymoron". In investigating
the case Briscoe is questioning a suspect and asks him "So, when is the last time you
saw the Warrior Princess?"
The character is called Xena quite a few times in the beginning of the show. The episode
is the 23rd installment of the 12th season.

| Nikki. |
She and a friend of hers were at a convention, dressed up as comic book characters. I kept watching because I knew they had to have a Xena reference. And of course, they did! To cut a long story short, Nikki needed to steal the
batmobile but a guard had a hold of her. In order to distract him she says: "Hey, look at all the lesbians at the Xena booth!". Of course, everyone has a look and she escapes.

Episode: Melinda Mary Bloch April 2003
It's being viewed by a woman suffering from depression. Ironically enough, we see a very brief bit from "The Abyss."
The cool part is that somebody chose "Xena" for that particular scene, assuming that a segment of the audience would be familiar with XWP. What would be even cooler is if they purposely chose "The Abyss," assuming that
some of us would "get" the even deeper parallel from that two-second spot.

Follow up by Iseqween
I think the episode titles are the names of the deceased featured in the opening. In this case, it's "Melinda Mary Bloch." The XWP bit comes in around 32 minutes into the ep and
lasts all of about 9 seconds. It opens with Xena blowing fire at one of the cannibals in "The Abyss." We see him aflame, then another quick look at Xena fighting. The depressed wife is staring at this, while her hubby snores
away beside her with his head thrown back. Also, there's a "used with permission" for Xena: Warrior Princess at the end of the credits. If anyone needs further info, they might try the SFU website, which, unfortunately, I didn't
see mentioned. |

| The Simpsons |
They say that if
you're asked to guest star on the Simpsons, it means you've made it. Well, Lucy has guest
starred, and Xena has had several references!
1) In the episode in
which Mark Hamall guest starred, Homer attends a convention and there is someone there in
a Xena costume.
2) In a recent clip
show, there was a montage of famous guests who have appeared on the show and Xena was
one of those shown.
"Wait a minute,
Xena can't fly".
"I told you, I'm
not Xena, I'm Lucy Lawless".
"Oh".
3) A gym teacher, who
refused to change Lisa's grade says ""I made an oath, and by Xena I'm not going
back on my word!"
4) The Comic Book
Store guy is typing away on his computer and there is a Xena poster hanging on the wall
behind him.

| The Street
(premiere) |
Basically it's centred around a bunch of guys who work at
stock market firm on Wall Street. One of the guys, is a BIG Xena fan.
First reference: (talking to this guy he is mentoring for work experience)
Ethan: "Hey Sherman, what exactly is your stand on Xena?".
Sherman: "Is it a pharmaceutical?".
Ethan: "Um, Xena the Warrior Princess".
Sherman stares.
Ethan: "Ok, I'll make it simple. Xena or Buffy?".
Sherman: "Buffy?".
Ethan puts his head in his hands.
Later on. Again to Sherman.
"Buffy was born a slayer, her abilities came to her accidently, genetically. Xena on
the other hand earned her heroism". LOL!
Later on in a strip club. Again to Sherman, Ethan speaks of finding strippers a turn off,
"anti-erotic". We than see a stripper who bears a remarkable similarity to Xena,
with shoulder pads, sword, the hair, and ample cleavage!
Ethan's response: "Sweet God".
Ethan follows her back stage and they make a deal whereby if her answer is yes to his
question, he would take her out to dinner.
Ethan:
"Didn't I see you at the Xena Con 2000 last month at the convention centre?".
They go out to dinner.
That night.
Ethan: "You are a very unique person. Have you ever met a vegan, dialysis nurse who
moonlights as an exotic dancing Warrior Princess?".
She explains why she strips and why she chooses Xena.
"I do Xena because I can relate to her, you know what I mean. I would never do
Gabrielle".
Ethan: "Or Buffy".
Lady: "Please, Xena would eat Buffy for breakfast!".
They go up to her apartment and get it on.
Lady: "Should I put on the costume".
Ethan agrees.
She calls out from the bedroom, "There's another accessory that I like to wear that I
don't use at the bachelor party. Most guys would freak out but I know Xena would
aprove".
He walks in and is shocked. The next day he talks to a couple of his friends.
"I go up there thinking she was going to be Aphrodite, she ends up being
Hermaphrodite

| Whose Line Is It Anyway |
It is a show that does improv skits based on things thrown out by the audience. They were doing their TV commercial for hit songs and asked for a profession. They make up titles and the other guys need to make up the song lyrics
to a named style. Some yelled out Warrior Princess and they did 3 songs themed around the Warrior Princess. The first was in Jerry Lee Lewis style and the title was the battle cry ay ya ya, the second was Kid Rock style called
shields, swords and clubs the third was techno style big women little men.

X-Files' Season 7,
Episode 13, "First Person Shooter", involved a virtual reality game that goes
haywire and starts killing real live contestants. The woman, Jade Blue Afterglow/Maitreya,
being interrogated is innocent of any wrongdoing, but was used as a model for the female
warrior who appears unexpectedly in the game.
Jade claims no knowledge of First Person Shooter or of the game or of why she has been
placed at the crime scene. Scully tells her she might want to start telling the truth.
When Jade asks what truth that is, Mulder says "That you murdered two men. One with a
14th century broadsword and the other with a flintlock pistol." Great Jade quote:
"Oh. You must have had me confused with my sisterXena, Warrior Princess."
