[b]okay, as one of the few people here who actually remembers seeing the star trek episodes when they first aired, i wish to point out once and for all, lexx is not a star trek ripoff, it has nothing to do with star trek, and it is the opposite of everything star trekkian! but i love them both, and look forward to star trek marathons as much as twilight zone marathons (no , i don’t remember the original airings of the twilight zones! and i didn’t say how old i was when i was watching the first airings of star trek!)…star trek is 60’s utopian scifi, lexx has more in common with 50’s mccarthy era dystopian scifi…and i loathe the klingons with ridges, it makes them too cartoon like…personally, i liked the romulans the best, they were the other path the vulcans could have taken and of course SPOCK RULES…and now that i am old and bitter, KAI RULES…[/b]

I suppose [i]Lexx[/i] could be [b]even more[/b] like [i]Star Trek[/i] than it already is. If that were to happen, I predict the result would be something like this-

Stan: …So, if we use the portal to travel back in time, we could prevent President Kennedy from ever being assassinated!

Kai: The dead think this is a bad idea.

Zev: There’s a Mr. Prince to see you, Captain.

Stan: Thank you, yeoman nobody.

Prince: I’ve decided to put mankind on trial for your transgressions, Captain Tweedle.

Stan: Again?

Prince: I’m very good with the Prime Directive.

Kai: Fascinating.

Stan: Look, I’ll give you your slave-girl-plant back if you’re gonna make a big deal out of it.

Prince: Excellent! It’s all falling into place…

Stan: …Just give me a few more episodes to teach her what it means to be human.

Prince: Very well. We shall meet again, Captain Tweedle.
