Xena: Warrior Princess - A Solstice Carol

🎄 Rise and shine while you still can! Since this year’s December Solstice falls on a Sunday, I’ve come bearing the gift of an unexpectedly very merry Scrooge Sunday episode of “Xena: Warrior Princess” from 1996. 🎙️ April Ryley and Sammy Hain join the mission to warm the cold heart of a king who’s banned all Solstice celebrations on an almost wibbly-wobbly timeline that manages to smash together “A Christmas Carol,” the Three Fates of ancient Greek tradition, a Santa Claus origin story, and the Nativity. It even throws in some “Home Alone” style shenanigans, as a treat! 📺 As of this recording, “A Solstice Carol” is available to watch on Prime Video . **** 💬 Topics & Tangents: Lucy Lawless in “ Spider-Man .” “ Ebenezer and the Invisible World ,” the video game. Moirai : The Three Fates. The Simpsons: “ Desperately Xeeking Xena ” from “Treehouse of Horror X” (1999) Inside Senticles’s toy closet , and his King Friday XIII lookalike jack-in-the-box .
