[B]The worst error in [i]Lexx[/i] is the whole premise of the “patches in the sky.” Fruitcake tells Gubby Marx that the Wolfram-T Galaxy is gone. So Gubby goes over to his telescope ans, sure enough, that galaxy is missing. Now, galaxies are something like 5 billion light years apart, and Mantrid started disassembling stuff less than a year before that episode, so there’s no way the light (or lack of light) from the Wolfram-T galaxy could have reached there.

Our Beans really don’t care about scientific believability in Lexx. That aside, suppose that the light universe, despite the assumptions of the Divine Order, is actually considerably smaller than the dark zone. The stars seem to be much closer together in the light zone, based on both the CG effects, and the apparent ease and speed of travel from planet to planet. Perhaps the light universe is like a tiny bud universe inside the Dark Zone, a little bubble, which big-bangs into existence (according to Kai), and collapses again when the time is right, or when some maniac like Mantrid comes along. Still not very scientifically accurate, but plausible enough for fiction, perhaps.
