Xena: Warrior Princess is a spin-off of Hercules: The Legendary Journeys and aired from September 4, 1995, to June 18, 2001. Robert Tapert created the series with executive producers R. J. Stewart and Sam Raimi (The Evil Dead, Drag Me to Hell).
The series follows Xena, an infamous warrior on a quest to seek redemption for her past sins against the innocent by using her formidable fighting skills to now help those who are unable to defend themselves. Xena is accompanied by Gabrielle (Renee O’Connor), who during the series changes from a simple farm-girl into an Amazon warrior and Xena’s comrade-in-arms; her initial naïveté helps to balance Xena and assists her in recognizing and pursuing the greater good.
The first season sports an 89% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes with a Critics Consensus that reads: Lucy Lawless exudes steely charisma in Xena: Warrior Princess, a swashbuckling actioner that transcends its origin as a spinoff and becomes a fully realized saga in its own right.
