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 from a three-man team of "Human Beans" led by creator and frequent writer-director Paul Donovan. Sad-sack pilot Stanley Tweedle (Brian Downey), coquettish love slave Zev (Eva Habermann), reanimated corpse Kai (Michael McManus), 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 (1998).
In the first of 20 episodes, "Mantrid" launches the Lexx into a funhouse galaxy of wacky worlds, where the dreaded insect king awakes and begins his bizarre reign of terror. The hilarious "Lyekka" introduces the title character, a curvy little plant girl with an insatiable appetite for human flesh, but more importantly it replaces platinum blonde Eva Haberman with the impishly flirtatious, full-lipped redhead Xenia Seeberg, the show's instant cult pinup queen. 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. "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.
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.

I caught an episode of this flipping through the channels years and years ago, and it caught me. Thereafter I didnt miss a show. It was well written, highly imaginative and enjoyable on so many levels. Xenia Seeberg and I went to the same acting school in NYC, which I thought was kinda cool. She was a couple years ahead of me. People either love this show or hate it. I dont understand how anyone can hate it. The show is a riot. Ive laughed just as hard at episodes of this show than I have of Steve ... Read More

When Sci Fi first put Lexx on the air in the laste 1990's their was nothing quite like it EVER on TV. Original, Naughty, Twisted and highly entertaining to say the least. The three movies that came out first set the tone and layed the foundation. It is unfortunate that they cann not be purchased affordably on DVD at this time. Howerer, all of the main characters in their splendor appear here in their own very complete, unique and comical form in the Comlete Second Series. Stanely, Zev, Robot head, ... Read More

Good scifi action not the usual. Offbeat,Stan the captain a horny coward,Zev the love slave half lizard,790 the robot head obsessed love of Zev which to me was goofy who always wants to get rid of Stan who he sees as getting in the way of his love of Zev & the only chacter I did not like. Kai the dead asassin who kills whomever Zev or the captain wants him to or to protect them & get them out of the trouble they always seem to get into with there obsessions. Finally Lexx the most powerful wheapon in the ... Read More
