Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
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 seriousness it can't pull off, as in Stan's Trial, where Lexx's dorky pilot is accused of the deaths of billions by a sadistic prosecutor. True to form Stan is captured on a bordello ship with a giant condom.
The DVD features a 10-minute, behind-the-scenes featurette (mostly covering the special effects), short cast and creator interviews, and the second chapter of Rated LEXX, the 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 2
Episode 2.4: Lafftrak - A great episode that makes fun of TV series. A very funny & very cleaver episode. Basically the crew ends up ... Read More

4.5 stars. First off, the DVD transfer has improved considerably from the first volume, for some odd reason. Volume 2 finds "The Lexx" in full stride, using savage satire and even more sexual innuendo than before. I will break up my review into four parts, each one concerning a different episode.
2.5 Lafftrak--This is my favorite on the DVD for the undeniable fact that it is a satire on the television industry. It starts out with two elite warriors of TV World in spacecraft trying to ... Read More

Tired of the same old boring programs on TV, then you should watch Lexx. It's blend of sex, comedy, drama, and sci-fi is one of the best things on TV right now. I'm so sick of the same old boring sitcoms and reality shows that are all over the TV now. I don't want reality, I want to be taken away from it. Lexx isn't about reality, it takes us to another time and another place.

As a great admirer of the original series, and especially the pilot episode of "Tales From a Parallel Universe-- I Worship His Shadow" I can say without reservation that this is NOT the same series.
Instead, it is a formulaic T&A show aimed at 12-year old males (as evidenced by a previous review) and completely lacking in the originality and imagination of the original series.
The new actress who plays the reconstituted Xev is a constant distraction with her surgically-overenhanced ... Read More
