Although I've been writing the past few days about Lucy Lawless, I don't want to give my many new Xenite visitors the impression that I am not into Renee O'Connor. I am very into the ROC, and I loved it when she took the stage to dance at Lucy's concert, as shown in this photo from the evening.
To prove it, if I can follow-up on my previous post and continue another Internet meme, here is a list of some of the top things my girlfriend and I have argued bitterly about:
- Who is more responsible for carrying the subtext on Xena: Warrior Princess, Lucy or Renee?
- Who is the greater genius of the Beatles, John Lennon or Paul McCartney?
- Who represents the highest authority in the known universe, Judy Garland or Barbra Streisand?
I'm not going to offer an opinion on any of these, the truly important questions of our time, lest I start the mother of all domestic disputes. (Sometimes just saying the name "Paul McCartney" with a certain inflection can cause the room to snap with tension in our household.) The point I'm trying to make is that we live with some very passionate feelings for Renee.

First - let me say this - why do you have a link to Judy and not Barbara? What's that about? Do I smell partiality? Because if I do, I'm going to have to buy some incense.
Wisteria.
And thirdly - we all know who started and is responsible for subtext. This is not even open to discussion so don't even go there, Ms. Baloney. And season five doesn't count because that wasn't even Xena up there on the screen- it was some other TV show - I don't know what it was but it wasn't Xena.
And fourth - great post.

To my readers:
I knew I would regret this post. I don't want to go into any details, but let me just say that the name "Paul McCartney" has been bandied around quite heatedly since writing the above.

I don't know: I think all this Lucy Lawless love affair on your blog signifies that you abandoned ROC a while ago. Oh, for the days when ROC posters were everywhere in your humble abode...

My ROC poster is framed and on the wall. Don't make me go all Xena on you...

I just found this blog-it is awesome! I don't know if you wanted readers to chime in but I do think those are some serious questions you posed.
My answers would have to be:
Steve Stears! Well, actor-wise Lucy
John Lennon-just check out the difference between their solo Xmas songs to see who is the genius (though Paul had better taste in women-in the beginning)
JUDY JUDY JUDY- she's a goddess!
I also love that you know Renee Montoya from 52, Batman and GCPD. That is very cool.

I'd glad you found me, Allison. I like your first answer--very good! Yeah, I would love people to chime in. Maybe other folks can take the heat from my girlfriend on these issues for awhile.
And yeah, isn't Montoya great?
