Buyer for Spin Off Series

The operative word being “At least” 1.1It’s a shame. But who knows, perhaps not having a spinoff will one day lead to having a motion picture. Or better yet to expand on the tales from a parrellel universe by having some prequals about the Brunnin-G or the Astral-B, or perhaps even the Insects.
Prequels would be good, Movie…probably won’t happen.
Even though I love Lexx, I keep wondering what would have been if it stuck to the feel of IWHS, instead of becoming a humourous and sex driven show.
I think it might have had a wider audience, the only ep that has brought that feel back was Vlad.
Many of us have stuck with Lexx because we understand it, it’s thrown some really tacky stuff at us, as well as some good.
But I think it’s more likely that most people have a passing interest, watch a filler ep and move on and forget it.
I still feel that the first movies had an epic feel to them, but now it’s lost that, and is just looks to the outside world as being a t.v show with some crazy antics.
If Lexx does come back in another guise, I feel it should return to the era of HDS, if not for the drama and awe-inspiring effects, but for the simple fact that it would generate a larger audience.
For us Lexx will remain a fond memory, for others it will be forgotten as nothing particularly remarkable.
Even though I still like Lexx, it has never lived up to it’s potential, for me the beans had something special, the beans didn’t play on the strengths set down in the movies.
So if we did see prequels, I would rather it be an indepth voyage of of the early years, what led to the insect wars, to see how exactly HDS came about and what the Brunnen G were like when their planet prospered, I would choose this as opposed to seeing a continuation of Stan’s life, or whether Kai and Xev finally make it together, because I just think it would be more akin to a soap opera than a sci-fi series.
And to be blunt, Paul D’s new idea of an Italian renaissance sounds incredibly dull, and about as far removed from Lexx as you can get, of course I wish him well, but you won’t find me taking much of an interest in his new project.
