When I went online a few hours after returning the set, I had the following note from BB: "We have received the items you returned on 02/12/2004. Your return details are listed below. Our records indicate that this item was returned because the product did not meet expectations. Your credit card and any Digital Dollars used for this purchase have been credited. "  Also from Laurie Ann: Suncoast was once affiliated with Best Buy.  But have since been sold.  They do not have the extra bonus DVD.    13 February Aussie Xena News Announcing.

Also at FOX, Nathan Fillion ("Miss Match," "BuffyTVS", "Firefly") is replacing Matthew Settle in the drama "Hollywood Division" from Universal Network TV's "Hollywood Division." Fillion, who starred in NBC's comedy pilot "Alligator Point" last development season, will play a police detective. D.J. Cotrona ("Skin"), Geoff Stults ("7th Heaven"), Rockmond Dunbar ("Soul Food"), Tsianina Joelson ("Bring It On","Xena") and Moon Bloodgood ("CSI: Crime Scene Investigation") also star in the pilot. (MET has added some to the parentheses. Zap2It.com hadn't included Xena as being in Tsianina's acting credits or Buffy for Nathan) Many thanks to MET for the news   3 February MaryD's Artwork Added new montage for Season 3, Episode 22 - Sacrifice P2 -  Episode Montages Xenaverse News To all Xena fans, and especially to the wonderful PARIS JEFFERSON (Athena)fans: We're happy to announce that Paris will be at the 1st Xena convention that will take place in Italy, Fiuggi, next March (from the 11th to the 14th).

I caught the commercial and saved it :) So for those that haven't seen it - check it out. It stars Enrique Iglesias as an evil Roman emperor, Britney Spears, Beyonce Knowles and Pink as gladiators.

Small snippets from the con are... The BIG fandom talking event that Creation was hinting at was Lucy dressing up and surprising Renee after Renee's play. That was pretty cool of Lucy and Renee WAS surprised. She appeared on stage with Renee for approx 5 minutes.  Hope Creation will release a video/dvd of Renee's performance because it sounds like it was AMAZING.   The other news was from Katherine Fugate who said Rob Tapert was trying to get the rights to Xena from Universal to make a Xena movie. Fingers crossed he succeeds.
