Episodes recut for different markets

Okay, 1st things 1st. Kai and May and the shoulder–In the uncut version, when Kai first meets May, he ever so smoothly and gently pulls the left strap of her gown down. As he is doing this, he is casually carrying on a conversation with her regarding where Xev might be. Once the strap is down, he turns her toward the camera so we can see it too. During the conversation he informs May of his non-living state. When he tells her she is injured she turns toward him and caresses his left cheek ever so briefly with her fingers and comments and you are cold. She then adds, at least I am alive and by now Kai has stepped toward the camera and gets an intersting look on his face. The scene never showed more than May, her shoulder and Kai’s facial expressions(in and of themselves breathtaking.) Whew, I may have to put that back in the vcr and watch it again. Nwmonikr wipes sweat from fervered brow) Just did watch it, therefore the corrections regarding the “scene.”
Anyway, yes,overall I resent any attempt at censorship. I am an adult and if I still had small children around, I, not a V chip would determine what they are allowed to watch. It just irritates me to see how the film industry has turned to special effects and gratuitous violence and gore to sell a product, namely their lame movies and tv shows!!Here’s one for you, maybe they have resorted to these purile exhibitions of incompetant filmwork because there are no longer genuine “actors and actresses” in the industry. Great ones are a thing of the past and likely we will never see their like again. Bogart, Gable, Hepburn(Katherine),Tracy. Hell-Douglas Fairbanks and Gilbert Roland even Olivier were light years ahead of what shows up now.I won’t even get started on the kind of dreck the industry calls screenplays. Lexx, even with it’s juvenile sexcapdes ala Xev and Stan is light years beyond what the American movie industry calls entertainment. So much more can be said with a look or a touch than with all the fx, blood and gore we are force fed on a daily basis. It’s no wonder people ho-hum when they see snippets and sound bites on the 6 o’clock news. Real life isn’t nearly as fun as movie and television interpretations of said. We have all become desensitized to the real horrors surrounding us. Long live Lexx, genuine entertainment!
