Now that I’ve seen them all, I guess you could say that Season 3 is my favorite (and no, it wasn’t my first experience). Partly it was the look and feel of it. I loved the Planet Fire, the ambivalence of Prince (he wanted to be good, he wanted to be evil, he had a specific job, but he wasn’t sure about all the details), the fact that Xev grew from her kittenish sex-slave beginning to become a mature, real woman, and the fact that Stan began to examine his relationship with her (i.e., there *was* one that didn’t have to do with his wanting to have sex with her).
But I just liked the series overall, even though every season was completely different from whatever went before. Each one had something to recommend it, enough so that I didn’t focus on the clunkers.
Sometimes I reveled in Lexx. Sometimes it made me laugh out loud, and sometimes it made me downright uncomfortable. To me, that’s great television.
Yo Way Yo and Brigadoom vie for most favorite episodes, but I have a special fondness for Nook, as that was my first one, and Mantrid just because I loved the villain and the story. Midsummer Nightmare remains my least favorite, along with Prime Ridge, but that may because they’re the freshest. I’m sure I’ve forgotten the ones I didn’t care for in previous seasons.
