So what exactly do you have against tanned flesh and American accents:?

Nothing in themselves, where they're appropriate.

Tanned flesh on Xena is just there to make her look sexy. She's a babe. I'm not into babes. For a supposedly experienced warrior it seems a bit daft to have all limbs exposed to any sharp edge that might be flying around. Mediaeval warriors plastered themselves with every last bit of metal plating they could stand up in (sometimes even two helmets, one on top of the other). Xena (like Conan in the De Laurentiis movies) is all image.

American accents are fine, but not in a Dark Age or Mediaeval Europe where there weren't any.
