Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: 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 discarding the useless body. The hilarious Lyekka guest stars Stephen McHattie as a drawling, hick astronaut and introduces the pixielike Lyekka, a curvy little plant girl with an insatiable appetite for human flesh (bye-bye astronauts), but most importantly it replaces platinum blonde Eva Haberman with the impishly flirtatious, full-lipped redhead Xenia Seeberg, the show's instant cult pinup queen. Just so its audience wouldn't get the wrong idea, Luvliner drops the crew into a dilapidated deep space cathouse.
Each DVD features a different 10-minute, behind-the-scenes featurette, short cast and creator interviews, and a chapter of Rated LEXX, a TV special created for the Sci Fi Channel to introduce the characters and recap the origins. --Sean Axmaker

I am a huge fan of Lexx. I really think it is one of the best shows I've ever seen on TV. I got into it around the middle of the second season & became an addict after that. I have all of the DVD's & have seen every episode (even the movies) multiple times. I plan to review each DVD, each episode, one by one. So here's my review for Series 2, Volume 1
Episode 2.1: Mantrid - The first of the TV series that takes place after the 4 mini-movies. Although I would highly recommend you ... Read More

4.5 stars. I used to be a late-night channel-surfer, and one night I hit on a show that was simply too bizarre and original to ignore: "The Lexx." I can honestly say I have never seen a more original show on television. The three-and-a-half main characters are Stanley Tweedle(the proto-typical bumbling anti-hero looking for willing females), Kai(an undead former assassin for His Divine Shadow), 790(a robot head with a cynical nature and an all-consuming love for Zev/Xev), and Zev/Xev(a character ...

I don't mean to disappoint anyone who are LEXX fans.I am also a Lexx fan and it wasn't long that Brian Downey wrote me and told me that there will me no more Lexx. That includes spin-off ideas and animation ideas. He told me so after rejecting my first animated Lexx script called "Stan's Dream" as an addition to the live show "The Net." I was hoping to have one wish. To became one of Salter Street's next scriptwriter.

This Is A Great DVD When I first viewed this series os Showtime, I have to admit, I thought it (wasn't good). I would'nt watch it at all. It was'nt until friends convinced me to give it another try, that I found that I really did like the show. I'm a big SciFi fan and this really is a great series. Unfortunatly, it has now been canceled. I am in the process of buying all the episodes. This is one of the best.

This is the second best DVD from season two. It has the intro to the beautiful new Xev in Lyyka along with the introducion to Mantrid and a great comedic episode in love liner. A great way to start off season two.
