Trivia
In a recent interview, Eva Habermann revealed that the first time they stopped using doubles for her nude scenes and she went topless herself, one of the technicians told her "Your body looks far better than your double." She thought it was such a sweet thing to say. But she joked that these days if a technician or any other male crew or cast member said that to an actress, they would probably be fired and shamed all over social media.

Goofs
Gigerata is running the risk of terrible diseases by eating brains.

Quotes
Zev: What kind of robot are you?
790: I'm a robot who wants to live in your underpants.

Crazy credits
All Universes, characters depicted, names used, and incidents portrayed in this film are fictitious. No identification with actual persons is intended nor should be inferred. Blah, blah, blah--

Alternate versions
In season 2, episodes "The Web"/"The Net" contain mostly overlapping material but told from a slightly different perspective. But only "The Net" has a definitive conclusion so the US Sci-Fi Channel decided not to show "The Web" at all.

A weird, twisted, totally enjoyable experience

The Lexx series is the next step in (d)evolution for those of us who love and miss Dr. Who and Red Dwarf. It contains all the quintessential characters, the cowardly and low-minded everyman, the aloof and mysterious dead guy that every girl *must* have, the beautiful and fierce heroine for the guys, and the biting wit of their robot companion. Not to mention the Lexx itself, most powerful ship in the Light or Dark Universe. Although often dismissed as hoky and low-budget (and it can be both), the Lexx series has strong characterizations, good solid writing with multiple story lines that always seem to come together seamlessly at the end (and that is NOT easy), and plenty of eye candy. I highly recommend it.
