XENA MEDIA REVIEW (XMR).
XMR is a periodic annotated world press review of reports regarding the internationally syndicated television show, XENA: WARRIOR PRINCESS (1995-2000) and the castmembers, Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor.

THIS WEEK IN XENA NEWS (TWXN).
TWXN is the currently hibernating advance sheet for XMR, looking to be resurrected soon. Since XMR offers indepth analysis of media coverage, the issues are distanced in order to gain perspective and insight into how the media report affected the future or was affected by its peers. TWXN is a commentary-lite review of excerpts to be used in future XMRs as they are processed for the XMR database. TWXN is not available for subscription, however it is posted, when it is not hibernating (!) on the XenaVerse, Hercules-Xena, and Chakram Mailing Lists (thank you Lucia!), the MCA NetForum (when they are accepting posts!), the Xenite Message Center (whenever I can find them!), and alt.tv.xena.
