Found this on Youtube today.  She's terrific...

This was great, brought back some fun memories from the 90's. When I was running a video store way back when we used to play the Hercules movies non-stop. Think I might start rewatching some of these on Netflix, it's been sooo long.

Just finished listening, great episode! These are both shows I watched causally here and there while they were actually on, maybe they bear a re-watch.

[Rico]

Glad you guys enjoyed the cast.  They are fun and mostly light types of tv shows.  Always put me in a good mood watching them.

Both fun shows.
I can't figure Lucy's accent out, didn't she have a pronounced aussi accent on BattleStar?
She sounds more plane in Xena and I've wondered if it was a marketing decision

Claudia Black had a wonderful accent on FareScape and SG-1 too.

[Rico]

Lucy is from New Zealand and has a definite accent from there.

Ooops, my apologies to our Kiwi friends.

I hope the day never comes when we all sound alike - bleh!

I mentioned this scene from "Hercules" on the podcast.  Hilarious!
