We’ve seen Xev in the shower, Stanley without his hat, and even the inside of 790’s head. So seeing Kai in the nude was only a matter of time. Following the dilemma of “Gondola,” Stan and Xev are lost among the schizophrenic denizens in “K-Town” and eventually found by a dead assassin whose biomechanical systems are malfunctioning. It takes a shock reappearance of season 2’s universe-destroying Mantrid to make sense of his groin-located repair mechanism. In “Tunnels” Kai, Stan, and Xev are split up, with Kai suffering the red tape of petty bureaucracy in Hog Town and Stan and Xev descending 39,000 steps. Stan bumps into show writer Lex Gigeroff making a cameo as insane surgeon Doctor Rainbow, and escape is determined by another death and resurrection from the enigmatic Prince (Nigel Bennett). At this halfway point in the season, the viewer should be carefully questioning this season’s premise. –Paul Tonks

Space nerd Stanley Tweedle and the motley crew of the simpleton living ship Lexx continue to wander around a video-game galaxy as the universe is devoured around them by the voracious Mantrid and his army of disembodied arms. They fight off the hungry undead corpses (who look suspiciously like the zombie Templars of Tombs of the Blind Dead) in “Twilight,” take a trip through Stanley’s guilt-riddled dreams in “Patches in the Sky,” meet the not-so-wonderful Wuzzard when they attempt to reset Xev’s expiration date in “Woz,” and slam into an interstellar net spun by a monstrous mind-controlling spider in “The Web.” Behind the farcical black humor and morbid running gags (does Stanley have to blow up every planet he sees?) is an increasingly melancholy edge as the universe disappears around the crew and Stanley faces up to his cowardice and irresponsibility. For Lexx, that’s almost deep. –Sean Axmaker

Sexy, smart, and wholly unpredictable after the stylish achievement of Series 3, Lexx kicks off its fourth go-round with a daring idea. After breaking away from dueling planets Water and Fire, the strange antiheroes of Lexx drop into the middle of America’s cultural and political pathologies. Thus we find pouty-lipped Xev (Xenia Seeberg), raised in a box to be a slavishly accommodating lover to men, ironically plunged into the lesbian hysteria of a Texas women’s prison and later unable to convince a gun-toting, trailer-park mama’s boy to bed down with her. Meanwhile, Kai (Michael McManus), Last of the Brunnen-G, grows mired in the stupidity of a doomsday cult, and neurotic Stan (Brian Downey) gets trapped in the machinations of Prince (Nigel Bennett), the former Fire ruler who now runs an imperial ATF out of Washington. Ridiculous, funny, surprisingly poignant, Lexx still insinuates powerful character arcs into its goofy mix. –Tom Keogh

Once you’ve been bitten by the Lexx bug, wacky wonders await you with every new episode. This volume compiles the last four episodes of the show’s second season (1998), and you’ll marvel at what this Canadian-German coproduction gets away with, given its modest budget and the ingenuity of its three-man creative team of “Human Beans” led by creator and frequent writer-director Paul Donovan. The show’s eagerness to experiment is proven in “Brigadoom,” a sci-fi musical that tells Kai’s backstory entirely in song–with surprisingly impressive results. “The Net” finds the Lexx trapped in a giant spiderlike snare, leaving Stanley (Brian Downey) under a dangerous alien influence. “Brizon” and “End of the Universe” end the second series as the Lexx is inexorably drawn into the Dark Zone after an epic fight with Mantrid’s multiplying drone arms. Confused? Don’t worry–with enough teasing sex talk, offbeat humor, and wild special effects, Lexx can seduce eve (more…)

Lexx is neither the most creative nor the most clever sci-fi series to hit the air, but it has no illusions of greatness. This is a show with nothing but sex on its mind, with a shamelessly brazen parade of T&A, an unending stream of suggestive dialogue and hilarious sexual metaphors (many of them concocted by the lovesick robot head in his erotic odes to Xev), and a tongue-in-cheekiness that manages to spoof its own sex-mad silliness. At times it can even be inventive: Lafftrak, set on a dead planet where interactive TV shows still run on auto-pilot, puts the crew through its own season of hell in front of a brain-dead studio audience, and Love Grows exposes the crew to a virus that puts an unexpected twist on their sexual cravings. But it’s a maddeningly inconsistent show that often stumbles over its own humor, as in the shrill hillbilly cannibal episode White Trash (guest starring a hysterical Maury Chaykin), and sometimes reaches for a seriousnes (more…)

A crew of misfit outlaws wanders the galaxy in a living ship. Sound familiar? Doomed to live in the shadow of cable TV’s science fiction class act Farscape, the Canadian-German coproduction Lexx takes a completely different trajectory as a tongue-in-cheek, sci-fi sex farce. Sad sack pilot Stanley Tweedle, coquettish love slave Xev, reanimated corpse Kai, and lovesick robot head 790 wander the galaxy looking for food, people, and (most importantly) a little nookie. Shot on the cheap with loads of flashy (if often unconvincing) digital effects and a rather claustrophobic series of studio-bound sets, the show launched with a quartet of TV movies before settling into a weekly series with its second season. Mantrid launches the Lexx into a funhouse galaxy of wacky worlds, where the dreaded insect king awakes and begins his bizarre reign of terror. Terminal takes them to a mercenary deep space hospital where the doctors’ specialty is saving the patient’s money and (more…)
