There are some interesting aspects to this series, but to say that it's "good" is misleading.
The background of the show is creative and interesting, and to some people it's worth a look just for that. But the scripting and directing are really terrible. A lot of the time the actors just stand around looking like they're trying to fake it while they remember their lines. There is no emotional immediacy or suspense, and you never worry about the fate of any of the characters because they themselves only seem mildly interested. The characters often seem to be acting at random.
The special effects are a lot better than the guy in a gorilla suit of yesteryear, but aren't up to modern standards. My recommendation would be to try the pilot movie (I Worship His Shadow) and if you like it enough to want to watch a series that is only about half as good, think about it from there.

I missed _Lexx_ on cable so I saw all of Season 2 within the space of a few days. I couldn't stop watching once I started. I was a huge fan of the original Star Trek (but not of the Next Generation) and Lexx, described by some as "Star Trek's evil twin," does all the things you (or at least I) secretly wanted the Enterprise and its crew to do but they never did--like blow up planets, talk about sex continually, and have no ethics whatsoever. If you had a crush on Mr. Spock (which I did), you'll cream for Kai, the sexy dead guy with the beehive hairdo, who sings this one song repeatedly that you'll be wailing in the shower by the time the season's over!
I can't say the dark humor was enough to make me laugh outright (except for a few scenes in the final battles with Mantrid in the last episode), but I did grimace with appreciation many a time throughout the series, and I found all of it extremely creative and original, and compelling enough to addict both me and my best friend through this season and the following two.

This is by far the worst show I have ever seen.This was recommended to me by a friend who turned me on to Farscape so I thought I would give it a try. Sorry I did..this is absolute trash.

Wow I just love to be able to pick what episode I want. The DVD 'extras' are excellent too. This series had a very original creative element I have never seen anywhere before, you could tell the LEXX set designers and wardrobe people were very professional in their creative work making cheesy and tacky look so very out of this world good! The special effects are like a cross between Flash Gordon meets the Matrix meets Austin Powers! Only it is isn't, it's all LEXX and all original. By the way, saying this is geared towards European teens? is way off, what a lame review!, this is for every Sci Fi fan that ever wanted a break from the typical creature vs. Earth story line, it is more like a psycadelic soap opera set in the future in a galaxy far, far away from every day Earth life, a great way to 'escape' from everyday life.
