Ares as comic relief
Did you ever really see Ares as that? I mean, I found Ares funny, very funny at some moments, but at a different kind of level then say Joxer, Jace or Salmoneus. They were (IMO, of course) really...

Only sometimes. Ares on Xena was usually not what I'd call comic relief, although he could be humorous at times. TQIM would be the best exception, I'd say.When Ares as played by KS was introduced on...

I wouldn't say comic releief in either show, just a god who had some amuzing moments. There were times in Herc when it looked like they were trying to make him into comic relief, but he';s the god of...

Who answered pure comic relief? Renee: Why she didn't have more boyfriends, yeah. I guess the relationship between Xena and Ares was so strong, too, that you didn't really need to bring anyone else in.
