Howdy Jen

Congratulations on your engagement! And converting someone to Xena-ism, well done :D

To the topic..

Season 5 for me had some really great Xena episodes, and some absolute stinkers (among the worst in the show's entire history). I think Season 5 was where they began to lose the plot and the stories became weaker - it went downhill, so to speak. Just like you mentioned, Married With Fishsticks and Kindred Spirits were a couple of these 'stinkers', along with Animal Attraction, Little Problems and Lifeblood - IMO, these should never have seen the light of day.

BUT, as I said, I thought there were some strong episodes too. I think the pregnancy was handled quite well, and the Livia/Eve arc toward the end was GREAT. From Looking Death In The Eye onward, to Motherhood (one of my FAVORITE finales ever), these were great episodes.

I also like some of the earlier ones, like Chakram and Succession.

Gee, I've rambled on here... OVERALL, I don't mind Season 5. I don't wanna spoil anything but I feel Season 6 was definitely the worst out of all of them. A couple of great episodes in there but the majority were complete and utter CRUD (think Married With Fishsticks kind of CRUD).
