      Joxer, Xena, Gabrielle etc. were not at all in ancient mythology. If the Hercverse was loyal to the original Grecian myth, then they wouldn't be around.
    • 1999 February 13, Xorys, “Maunderings re <<Devi>>”, in alt.tv.xena (Usenet):
      But in the middle of an ep that was otherwise functioning normally in the Hercverse version of ancient Greece, it just seemed too wierd... feeble lutes turning into electric guitars... and it wasn't even done consistently with Herc's character... and the music was bad... and it wasn't really funny...
    • 2000 October 12, Daryle Walker, “Re: Spoilers: Coming Home”, in alt.tv.xena (Usenet):
      No, it's not necessarily a plot hole. The show's history doesn't have to exactly match the show's 20th century background. (For example, Strife is still around in the 20th c. Hercverse, even though he died in the show.)
