Eric co-wrote a horror movie called Boogeyman that had Charles Mesure and Lucy in it too, and had a swing and mostly miss history with that group before moving on to Supernatural, etc...

I used to joke that sleep was overrated until I got older.

Tarzan (2003) was developed and written in part by Eric Kripke who would go on to have better luck with Xena alums Antony Starr and Karl Urban in The Boys.

Even the shots from the episode had fire and sparks that made it hard to get a clear shot of the Dagger of Helios, and there are no official pics of it alone that I'm aware of from Seeds of Faith/The Quest. The Xena Prop Archive, or the Xena Collection Blog might know if a prop version of it exists.

7th game (if necessary) is on Halloween night.

I wish I had clear shots of the dagger of Helios from Seed of Faith, but here is Ares holding it... and the handle thingy.

Nicholas Smith @therealnickelass.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

Should be a defensive battle, but the Valkyries did sweep the season series... and if it goes 7 we are in for some real scares since the final game is scheduled for Halloween night.

Next Saturday they meet is Ballhalla.

Xenites might have missed out early on... but YH is worth going back to watch for Ares, Discord, and Strife who had some great moments. The movie I don't remember much of, but imagine it was like the main series movies minus Lucy in Hercules and the Amazon Women and Renee in The Lost Kingdom.

Ryan Gosling is a way better Hercules than Kevin "Peanut" Sorbo.

Indeed she does, and I have seen that her exit interview is scheduled for tomorrow.

Yeah, I was spending time with family... but came back to see reporters talking about her "yukking it up" with the crew when they failed to notice that after making the picks she went to the hospital near the stadium without publicizing it. The players who missed interviews will speak when ready.

Credit goes to Bri Lewerke for the pics, but when the games were going on Caitlin was busy coloring.

I'm not surprised by complaints about Caitlin Clark skipping early exit interviews for College Game Day in Iowa, but just wanted to share pics of her visiting sick kids during the wave. #IndianaFever

Such a great horror movie, and about 5 years later we got to see Tony in Xena as Cecrops... but Ted somehow escaped again.

Jay who is Tammy's kid I thought turned out alright despite continuing to work in the family business, but is a big supporter of the LGBTQ community... or the last time I heard anything he was.

Jim Bakker after realizing he can't escape death's claw machine the same way he did a 40 year prison sentence.

I'm not a ticket holder, but the updates for Xena stuff on the socials are lacking... and the only way I found out was to randomly check the website because part of me is sad there are no pics and video to check out since today would have been the last day of original dates.

Finding out about this from Renee, and that Creation Entertainment has rescheduled the Xena Convention for February 5-7 of 2027 is a nice early spooky season treat for Xenites.

I missed the live chat, but would never miss a Xena watch through.

Atlanta vs Washington had so many fouls Rebecca and Ryan asked if they were close to a record, and they had called 53 when 57 was the record... but Dallas vs Golden State which you are talking about had 2 players on the same team foul out and one who almost did if the call wasn't overturned. Crazy.

Caitlin will have to use some of that money to fix her tooth after taking another elbow to the face that wasn't called. 🦷

According to the website all they have left is the 4 largest sizes of the Caitlin Blue and 3 largest sizes of the yellow Warning Code. 🤯

When I was a teenager I was going through my uncle's record collection, and sitting there was Switched-On Bach by Wendy Carlos. I knew of her from the movie, but Wendy is an absolute pioneer in electronic music and the Moog synthesizer. You can also hear her music in The Shining and Tron.

Exactly the same, and I was hoping for some Back to the Future shit by now.

Hell-o from the future where it is already October 1st.

Nicholas Smith @therealnickelass.bsky.social · 01/10/2026

A Clockwork Orange is a great movie, and sadly I haven't read the book it is based on... but for those who haven't I suggest reading about Wendy Carlos who wrote pieces of music that didn't make it into the movie.

I understand the pain of not being able to watch the creation of a masterpiece, and I don't have Prime... but the next game is on USA.

Nicholas Smith @therealnickelass.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Last night during the stream (since it was on Prime there was no radio) the surrender cobras were out early, and while some of the fans were ready to surrender in the 1st quarter the team responded to the physicality followed by Raven's layup to end the half and Caitlin getting sick during halftime.

27 points, 15 assists, and 7 rebounds for Caitlin Clark... and game 3 takes place on October 1st. #IndianaFever

18 points and 13 assists for Caitlin Clark, and Raven Johnson is playing her ass off too. #IndianaFever

Nicholas Smith @therealnickelass.bsky.social · 28/09/2026

Overtime game in August that the Fever blew a 20 point lead, and a few more games that were close could have change the playoffs... but that is basketball. There are some positives going into game 2 here in Indy w/ what Aliyah, Caitlin, and Raven did that if Kelsey gets going could result in a W.

Fever and Lynx got beat by experience and 17/16 points, but the Fever get to come home... and the Lynx get a trip to New York. #IndianaFever
