The word 'subtext' didn't come from Xena fandom, though it got used a lot there.
I know.
I'm with you on the "younger than their age" stuff. It all seems like some kind of pseudo-high-school from another dimension.
I keep getting the feeling that I've missed something by not having seen Veronica Mars! You speak so highly of it. The one episode I saw was good, although too realistic for me -- the man getting killed by having someone smash a baseball bat against his head, I mean. The moment the swing started, the man was dead... hate it that I know too much about injuries like that.
