Xena: Warrior Princess

Hooves & Harlots - S1-E10

Revealing mistake: When Xena is fighting Celano, right after he grabs his knife to try and kill her, the shot changes to Xena, who after dropping back to the ground is supposed to be unsheathing her sword, but actually has it out already and just pretends to. (00:39:00)

Mortal Beloved - S1-E16

Revealing mistake: When Marcus is hanging off a wall in Hell and under attack from a harpy, there's a shot of Xena jumping on said wall to help him. When she lands, you can see the pavement give in a little, like it's made of rubber instead of stone. (00:35:45)

The Greater Good - S1-E21

Revealing mistake: When Gabrielle is hitting her staff against the tree and screaming, if you look carefully for the last hit, the staff is bent. Most of their props were rubber with a metal rod inside them. The actress bent the metal rod because she was hitting so hard.

Callisto - S1-E22

Revealing mistake: When Xena is explaining to Gabrielle what happened at Cirra, her native New Zealand accent can be plainly heard when Xena says "ordinary".

Return of Callisto - S2-E5

Revealing mistake: After Xena gets out of that chair, she does a swinging kick from her whip and you get a shot of her feet connecting with her victim's chest. The fake feet that are used are seen bending backwards.

A Day in the Life - S2-E15

Revealing mistake: When Xena and Gabrielle are in the hot tub, there is a part where Gabrielle turns to face Xena, and when she does the actress stood up to far. You can see her bathing suit when she is supposed to be naked.

The Bitter Suite - S3-E12

Revealing mistake: When Xena drags Gabrielle with the whip behind her horse, you can see in some shots it is a dummy - as the arms are in a static position. In other shots, Gabrielle is a man, as shown by how much larger she suddenly gets. (00:02:00)

Jack's Revenge

Sacrifice (2) - S3-E22

Revealing mistake: When Hope and Gabrielle are talking, and Gabby says she's sorry the poison didn't kill Hope, look when the camera is on Hope and behind Gabby. Since Renee O'Conner plays both parts, a double is used from the back. The double is really bad. Her build is way too small and un-muscular to be Gabby.

The Quest (2) - S2-E13

Trivia: This was the 2nd of a two part episode, and the script had to be totally re-written as a mostly Xena Free episode due to Lucy breaking her pelvis in an accident on the Jay Leno show.
