I looked on Netflix for the DVDs but they only start with season 2. What a drag!

I never got Lexx. It is definately nothing like Dr Who. In the UK Lexx appeared on the TV and shortly after Farscape appeared. I am a Sci-fi head and I tried so much to get into Lexx but IU just never got it. Farscape came along and that flew. It was the best sci-fi on TV :)

Original Xev very pretty, but with a seemingly inexhaustible supply of panstick.
Xev 2. Eek! Bulemic heroin addict lip implant horror. Tribute to the actress that she came across as quite likeable.
Kai. Silly Urdu, but so hard, he could get away with it.
Robot perv and Stanley. Probably the two entities in both universes most in need of a slap.
Lexx. Great. Loved the moth helicopters and the being able to destroy planets just like that.
The big cannibal lass was a bit of all right. Early example of Reiver couture, if I'm not mistaken.
Cult status guaranteed by guest spots from Rutger Hauer and Malcolm MacDowell. I'm surprised David Warner never popped in for a bit of a moustache-twirling villainous turn.
Definitely ran out of steam later on.

This threads a little old...but I must reply. I love Lexx! One of my favorite shows, besides being a little perverted, okay alot perverted, it still maintains an interesting plot and creative and new characters. A completely different type of show than Firefly of course, the characters aren't quite as noble. Watch Lexx! I think it's an underappreciated show.
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so...very...pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

It can be good and it can be bad. I've watched from the beginning but damn I stopped watching after season 3 I think. Taped them, but never watched them then taped over them. But yes, I like the show. If your into bizarre weird crazy and all out funkified shows you'll like Lexx.
If I'm a bitch, then life just got interesting

Maybe this should be over in the 'guilty pleasures' thread. I coulnd't help but like this series. The characters were fun, the stories were weird, and who doesn't love a living ship that blows up planets in order to eat them? I also like when Prince showed up later in the series due in large part to the performance of Nigel Bennett. He also brilliantly portrayed Lacroix, the main baddie on another favorite of mine, Forever Knight. That guy just has so much fun being evil.

I think Firefly could have found home at ScifiChannel now Syfy back in the old days
Rutger Hauer, Klaus Dieter Laser, Minna Aaltonen now dead ... did Covid kill people or Lockdown insanity or old age
Most of Babylon-5 Cast are dead
Lexx at times Very Farscape-ish
The story of Lexx for its time was shocking but the smutty horror campy nude Vegas adult humor is probably tame by today's filth tranny porno standards
had a silly humor like British Red Dwarf
I think the acting and music endure
Lexx at times was dumb but it got a pass for its B-movie junk entertainment
but Farscape was considered higher quality but with quality it has more critics

I liked Lexx in the beginning but it got a little weird to me after a while. I don't know. I just kind of lost interest in it. Back in the days when I watched it though, it was on cable TV and who knows if they even played it in order? No way I was going to pay $100+ per season to watch it on DVD and I didn't have internet for a few years afterward.
A buddy of mine had the DVD with 4 one hour shows that I think were the first 4 episodes of the series. Those were good.

It was definitely original; I liked the first Zev. I liked the idea of a dead assassin.
"His Shadow..."
"His Divine Shadow, yes."
"The Brunnen-G will defeat you."
"I do not think so. The power of Order has destroyed your planet. The power of Order will destroy you - and you are the last of the Brunnen-G left alive."
"The Time Prophet has seen your Order destroyed by the Brunnen-G..."
"The Time Prophet's vision appears to be flawed."
Loved 791 - "You're not pretty...but you're my kind of not pretty!" and "You're not going anywhere until I deal with this sizzle in my pizzle!"
I was never quite sure if they were heroes or not. It was good, though.
