Merciful Zeus! I had totally blanked about Xena having a musical episode. I might have to find Bitter Suite and give it a watch again.

The first thing I said when the credits finished on seeing Once More With Feeling with friends back when it originally aired, was "wow, some real shit went down in this episode." As if singing blunts the edge of the realizations. Willow tears up at the unimaginable horror of what she's done...and then 2 minutes later is singing again.

Great article, thanks for posting!

I'm doing a Xena rewatch and just did The Bitter Suite a couple of weeks ago. When the show originally aired, I had taped the audio onto cassette and listened to it over and over because I was absolutely nuts about all things Xena. Now nearly thirty years later the episode still stands up, as long as you can forgive the special effects.

Xena is on Prime Video if you're interested!

Thanks - I've been forgiving the effects for 30 years, no reason not to keep going!
