Sorbs has become a poor man’s Shatner (yeah, just let that sink in).

That still doesn’t give Sorbs the right to fling mud at Lucy. She did nothing to him. If Sorbs was so talented, how come he doesn’t have an A-list movie career, which is exactly what he said he wanted when Hercules was on the air, so don’t give me that “He’s done well with TV roles” excuse. Most of that is even $hittier than Andromeda anyway.

I have seen tons of Raimi and Lucy fans shout “Jealousy” and “Jerk” at Sorbo for saying such things. While I agree that he shouldn’t have had bad-mouthed them at this level, but nonetheless he has a point; if you Xena and Raimi fans would care to listen. He made them the stars, it was his charm and great personality that gaev life to the character of Hercules, and what made that show popular. If it wasn’t for Sorbo, the show might not have been that popular, and who knows Xena might have never come into existence. I think it’s very bad of Xena fans to not acknowledge Hercules as something vital in relation to Xena’s continuity. Then again, their heads are in the Xena fandom.

Sorbo is rightly upset with Raimi and the crew, it’s stupid of Raimi to be upset with him. How can you ask more of the guy when he stuck alongside you for 7 years and in those years he had to workout each day for hours to get in the role; plus he did many of his own stunts. He did made Raimi a lot of money, so for in return Raimi kicks him in the butt!? Sorry but all this makes Raimi look bad and not Sorbo, at least not wholly.

I completely agree with Sorbo. Sorbo is a very talented actor who busted his ass to make Raimi what he is today. I remember watching hurcules as a child and I loved it and continue to be a Sorbo fan til this day. As for Raimi, I didnt even know his name til today. And as for spiderman, well we all found errors in that movie’s plot, storyline, and screenshots.

Whoa! Sounds like Sorbs is jealous that his former boss is doing better than he is, post-Hercules.
Not surprising, though, since Sorbs proved that his success with Hercules was a fluke after the way he f***ed up Andromeda.
So, it makes sense that the rest of his career will now consist solely of TV guest spots and direct-to-DVD schlock like the Walking Tall sequel(I’m sure Poison Ivy 4, Hollow Man 3, and Alone in the Dark 2 are all waiting in the wings for him).
