Yeah. I didn't dislike it. It's always one of those shows that I think maybe if I ever get back into watching TV Shows and Movies I would like to give another try if I watch them in the intended order.
It was weird enough to make it different from anything else I saw on TV back then, and I did like the sets and the characters (although I pretty much forget any of their names or would struggle even to tell you what the show was even about all these years later).
Did it get a satisfying end at least? I probably wouldn't bother going back and rewatching it if it was cancelled early and they either left you on a cliffhanger or had to cram 3 seasons worth of story in 4 episodes.
As for not knowing if the heroes were good or not, I think that's a lot more interesting than the good guys dressed in white and the bad guys dressed in black. Real life isn't like that at all. Most of my childhood TV watching was a lie. It wasn't until around the time that Lexx came out that the media stopped making everything so absolute and allowed for realism via nuance.
In fact, I was just going to mention that the humorous early plot twist in Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight which literally used the black and white wardrobe was the first time I remember being struck with mockery of the old conventions. So I looked it up and that movie hit the theaters in 1995. Lexx started in 1996.
