okay so the Xena Trivia original thread was a bit long in the tooth, so lets start afresh.

Question: In season three, the furies cursed Xena for never taking revenge for the murder of her father... what were the two punishments they bestowed on her?
 
Persecution and Maddness! :)

I'm off on vacation so I'll add right now!

What other part has Lila (Willa O'Neil) played?
 
On Xena? No one... but she was Phoebe on Herc... is that what you mean?
 
shall we continue?

Well, Euterpe is away on holidays so lets continue...

Q: Name Gabrielle's home village?

Not hard I know, but often it's the ones you think you know that escape you. <g>
 
"Olympic Street in Athens, two blocks from Akbar the meatman."

Question: Who is the character of Joxer originally based on?
 
ahhhhhhhhhhhhh??????

Question: Who is the character of Joxer originally based on?

Ummmm I have NO idea.... care to share the answer?
 
I was also refering to Althea in "And Fancy Free"

Joxer based on???

Maybe on3 of the stooges?
 
Ah!
August told me all about this charater and how he was just like Joxer. What was his name!? Arg!

August! Help!
 
when you're in jeopardy (of not knowing the answer)
don't call the cavalry......


;)

The answer would be..... The Black Knight! Memorably played by John Cleese!


I had forgotten how funny Joxer's first encounter with Gabrielle was, when we saw it in one of the clips from "Send In The Clones."

I've had this conversation with several people over the years, and there are a couple of Whoosh! articles devoted to it, but it bears repeating for the casual observer. The original idea of the Joxer character in "Callisto" was for a much older, Don Quixote-like guy who imagined himself a warrior. A la Barney Fife. Wallace Shawn (the teacher who got "fixed" up by Cher in "Clueless" was originally set to play him.)

But the central scene was to have been the fact that even Gabrielle (very early in her butt-kicking career) was able to beat the crap out of him, and he still wouldn't acknowledge defeat. Consciously patterned after John Cleese as The Black Knight in "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."

Here's Joxer and Gab:

J: “You wanna fight, huh? Fine with me. You made me mad,
now, little girl. [Laughs] You’ve just made a serious
mistake. [Laughs] You broke my crossbow! That does it! I’m
gonna rip you apart with my bare hands!â€

G: “What are you doing?! Now, stay down!â€

J: “Are you kidding, me? I got you right where I want you.â€

G: “Will you stay down?! There’s something I gotta do!â€

J: “Go ahead. Run-- you coward!â€

and here's King Arthur and the Black Knight:

Black Knight: None shall pass.

Arthur: What?

Black Knight: None shall pass.

Arthur: I have no quarrel with you, good Sir Knight, but I must cross this bridge.

Black Knight : Then you shall die.

Arthur: I command you, as King of the Britons, to stand aside!

Black Knight : I move for no Man.

Arthur: So be it!

[they fight]

Arthur and Black Knight: Aaah!, hiyaah!, etc.

[Arthur chops the Black Knight's left arm off]

Arthur: Now stand aside, worthy adversary.

Black Knight: 'Tis but a scratch.

Arthur: A scratch? Your arm's off!

Black Knight: No, it isn't.

Arthur: Well, what's that, then?

Black Knight: I've had worse.

Arthur: You liar!

Black Knight: Come on, you pansy!

[Arthur chops the Black Knight's right arm off]

Arthur: Victory is mine!

[kneeling]

We thank Thee Lord, that in Thy mer--

Black Knight: Hah!

[kick]

Come on, then.

Arthur: What?

Black Knight: Have at you!

[kick]

Arthur: Eh. You are indeed brave, Sir Knight, but the fight is mine.

Black Knight: Oh, had enough, eh?

Arthur: Look, you stupid *******. You've got no arms left.

Black Knight: Yes, I have.

Arthur: Look!

Black Knight: Just a flesh wound.

[kick]

Arthur:
Look, stop that.

Black Knight: Chicken!

[kick]

Chickennn!

Arthur: Look, I'll have your leg.

[kick]

Right!

[whop]

[Arthur chops the Black Knight's right leg off]

Black Knight: Right. I'll do you for that!

Arthur: You'll what?

Black Knight: Come here!

Arthur: What are you going to do, bleed on me?

Black Knight: I'm invincible!

Arthur: You're a looney.

Black Knight: The Black Knight always triumphs! Have at you! Come on, then.

[whop]

[Arthur chops the Black Knight's last leg off]

Black Knight: Ooh. All right, we'll call it a draw.

Arthur: Come, Patsy.

Black Knight: Oh. Oh, I see. Running away, eh? You yellow bastards! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!
 
*LMAO* Good show August. You are correct. You may post the next trivia question if you'd like. :D
 
:lol:
You can count on August for a long responce to a short question. Thats ok because we love him still! ;)
 
OK, here's a good one:

What guest star has appeared on the most different Ren Pics shows? (not episodes, but actual different series.) In what roles.... and name 'em!
 
I don't really know this one and I don't watch Cleo.

I don't think Cam was ever in JOAT.
So my guess.......(knowing August) Hori E. (I can't spell it but you know who I mean)
 
Nope, neither Cam Cooley (who was only on Herc and Xena) nor Hori Ahipene (who was in Herc, Xena + Jack.)

Lotsa people have been in three - Stuart D., for example, and Gina Torres. Few have been in 4, however. (I don't *think* anyone has been in all 5, but I may be wrong.)

So any other guesses? (There are a couple tied for 4, I think.)
