  Ok ok, I'll give a semi brief commentary on the India eps. Kinda like the Cliff Notes version of my thoughts. Ready? What the hell?!?! Ok that's it.

  Just kidding. Well, that is part of it. Ok, I know there are people out there who adore those eps. They're a change from the horrors of that Autolycus ep which for the life of me I don't even know the name. Not Tale of Two Muses, but the one with Meg. And ok, In Sickness & in Hell was kinda insulting but hey, I was laughing alot during it. Hey it was funny if not stupid, which equates to funny at times, this being one of them. I admit it wasn't a good one but it wasn't like oh say...Key to the Kingdom. WOOHOO! had to go check Whoosh to actually remember the names and found the Auto ep. Ok now on to the India eps. I found them just totally random. "Oh Let's go to India!" yeah yeah you can email me all you want about the whole spiritual quest stuff but I still don't buy it. I don't care either. And let me just say, that yellow is a fashion faux pas if I ever saw one. But that's just me. The ep where Alti returns did have some funny moments. Didn't get the cheesy light show to send them back to the past though. But having Gab just pop into that guy's body and is like "Eep!" was funny. But um.. Alti? Gab already knows about the vision so it's not that much of a shocker, though the pain definitely was. Ok. oh forgot Devi. Enh. Eli was kinda cute... once Gab got into full crazy goddess garb I was like Uh yeah. And then the fight scene. Whatever to that. But hey, at least if they wanted, they could get ROC to practice her kickboxing techniques. Now on to The Way. I was able to see it at its normal time, both on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon, with just a lil top scrolling thing like a disaster notice about how they had the utmost respect towards the religion. Anyhoo, it was one of the better India episodes. Got use to Gab's new 'do fast. Still don't like it but not as bad as in the vision and when it was cut off. Probably cuz it was a wig then. So, we got some fun bantering about the dam at the beginning sorta. Gotta love Xena's "I get it. He's a bad guy" line. What else was there? Ok Planet of the Apes Hanuman.. enh I guess it's plausible but if you just read it in a commentary on Whoosh, you gotta kinda laugh. Well you still do but that's besides the point. At least I have read the Ramayana and do know what they were talking about from what I remember. Forgot if they killed Rama, but I guess they did or well,that just wouldn't be the story and then there goes respect for the religion, eh? Too bad Gab threw her staff in the river. Wonder what Ephiny will think. On a side note, I really loved Sky High from Hercules. I swear they must've switched writers this season. So that's basically it. I know I probably could say more but well, then I'll just say how much this season has annoyed me. It seemed to get worse after A Family Affair. A Good Day was ok, but not that great. But the rest has been so schizo for me that even when they do have good eps, I don't like them. Personally, I don't see why anyone even complained about the 3rd season. I really liked it and that's what got me into it. And the Deliverer was the first ep I saw. Well, not counting the last half of The Furies and saw the promo for BTDT and was like Ick Groundhog's Day. Ironic how I love that ep now.
