Consider the Lily
Lily, I’m sorry to hear your considered judgement. It sounds like you’ve come a long way only to give up in exasperation. I’m particularly troubled by your fear that you might be attacked for expressing such a judgement. As I’m sure we all are at sadgeezer.com. We are all friends here and all opinions are given a fair hearing (LOL). The expressed concern is actually more common than is publiclly acknowledged here – as indicated to me privately (relax, I’m not going to mention You by name – although a little support would have been nice).
My suspicion is that the makers of Lexx miscalculated by second guessing its audience. its almost as if the fourth season is offered as a corrective or apology for the third season – where many felt was too ‘heavy’, ‘serious’ or ‘singular’. So they went the other extreme. I think you’ve hit the nail on the head by pointing out that the relentless caricaturing and referencing is not doing the show any good. I would suggest, however, that you try and stick with it. Many people here have indicated that the anal probes, enemas, farts, male rape, etc will all make sense ‘in the end’ [img]images/smiles/icon_eek.gif[/img]
