As a whole,
Xena had the strongest female cast of any action series, or film, ever.
Xena, throughout its run, consistently staged a universe dominated by strong female characters always portrayed ably by athletic women. The writing may have ebbed at times, but the cast never did that I could tell.
This goes for not only
Lucy Lawless and
Renée O'Connor but also the supporting cast (indeed, especially even):
Tsianina Joelson,
Hudson Leick,
Victoria Pratt,
Gina Torres, among others. Impressive women—some (e.g. Pratt and Joelson) had been accomplished athletes—who made their characters convincingly formidable; in other words, textbook casting for strong female characters.
Xena Con 2010 was held this past February in Los Angeles. The Amazon
Varia (er, I mean Tsianina Joelson) showed up. We are lucky enough to have some video:
