It's over, the last straw has broken the camels back!
The culture warriors can all go home now. The total destruction of the homeland is a done deal. God will now turn everybody in hollywood into a pillar of salt or some such,... put a fork in the US of A, it's done.
Cult TV Hero Xena 'Warrior Princess' Finally Comes out of the Closet
Everyone who watched knew Gabrielle wasn't just her sidekick—but the new show will "fully explore" their couplehood.
"For almost anyone who watched the iconic “Xena: Warrior Princess” during its late Nineties-era run, the idea that Xena and her young comrade Gabrielle were more than buddies registers mostly as a big fat “no kidding.” But while the original series got by for years on its sly — and much-loved — subtext, a new reboot leaves no room for doubt. We had to go two decades into the future from where we started, but we’ve finally got a mythological ancient world with gay people.
Last year NBC gave the go-ahead for a pilot for a new “Xena” from Javier Grillo-Marxuach, the writer and producer behind “The 100.” And just to make things clear from the outset, during a recent Q&A on Tumblr, he promised, “There is no reason to bring back Xena if it is not there for the purpose of fully exploring a relationship that could only be shown subtextually in first-run syndication in the 1990s.” To which many of us can only reply, whoo hoo!"
