Oh, absolutely. [i]LEXX[/i] is nothing if not SubG ‘fropaganda. Just look at this season in and of itself. There’s the world full of Pinks who are bringing the whole place to the brink of destruction, there’s the Conspiracy (as epitomized by Prince and his connection to JFK and Waco, just to show the tip of the Con iceberg) seeking to suck the slack out of the people of this world, there’s the Yacatisma heading toward Earth (the Beans cleverly substituting *plant* people for *serpent* people), there’s the arrival of a spacecraft from another dimension/planet with a hot sex goddess aboard…Even when you look at the creative aspects of the show, you get a SubG thing going on. There’s the mocking and ridicule of Pink icons (religion, government, complacent suburban society, etc.), the embracing of BullDada (Godzilla flicks, slasher flicks, zombie flicks, etc.), and a crew that gets through everything by the skin of their teeth by surfing that luck plane for all it’s worth. It celebrates hedonism and indulgence, and is all about having fun. It’s one of the only truly slackworthy programs on the Box today.–Aleck
I could not have said it better myself. You put my knowledge of Subgenius lore to shame. I am forced to admit that I barely deserve the title of Reverend. In fact, I’m going to quote you in alt.binaries.slack.
The Supreme Beans need to be nominated for Sainthood in the Church of the Subgenius. Or perhaps, by “Bob”, we can do it ourselves. They are saints because it is self-evident. I know I will be preaching this from now on.
