On each of the Season 2 discs there’s interviews with the cast & crew, and information on their past work.
There’s also a segment of “Rated Lexx” (the US Sci-Fi Channel’s introduction special) on each of the season 2 discs released thus far.

Heya, Randalt.
The yellow highlight is a problem. On some sets, it looks okay (it looks fine on my home set), yet on some sets, it’s almost invisible (like half the monitors here at work). They’re in the process of doing the programming on the next-to-last disc right now, so I don’t think it’s going to change before/if we leap into Season 3 (which I’ve still got my fingers crossed about). We’ve talked to Salter (who are doing the authoring) about boosting the color a bit, but it’s always hard to tell how it’s going to come out. My advice in the meantime is to boost your color levels slightly on the TV, which will make the highlighting easier to see (but not too much, or you’ll have color bleeding all over the place). See my above post about the frustrating closed captioning issue.
Glad you like the extras, though. The “Rated LEXX” segments will be on all 5 releases. Upcoming extras will include storyboards, production sketches, and more interviews, etc.
