Can someone tell me why it looks like a giant Dick and balls??? and why in the episode “Garden” (which is as yet the only one i’ve seen ) why did all the water jusgs..whatever… look like a DICK AND BALLS as well?? it just seems alittle odd to me… I mean is this a normal trade mark of Lexx or something?? JUST WONDERING!!

Seems that one of the major themes of LEXX (if not all of life in general) is that of sexual frustration. Xev usually can’t get what she wants, Stan can’t get what he wants, 790 *never* gets what he wants, and Kai, well, the dead…do not have wants. The ever-present male and female sexual symbols are there kind of as a humorous counterpoint to the fact that nobody is generally able to use their own, as it were.
Well, that’s my theory, anyway.
