Okay,
1. Xena ended after six seasons - it wasn't cancelled, it ended because both main stars wanted to move on.
2. The Eve storyline was only a very minor part of the final season.
3. The ratings for the final season were slightly lower, but the ratings had been declining for several seasons.
And Hudson Leick would have never worked as Cleopatra - the whole idea behind the character was that she was young, naive and weak. With Hudson in the lead they would have had an actress that was both the same age and a lot taller than the other two actresses. Maybe they wanted her as Sarge or Hel - but never as Cleopatra.
