What famous science fiction writer would you like to do an episode of Lexx? Harlan Ellison? Stephen King? Tracy Tormé?
I, for one, would love to see a Lexx episode written by Clifford Pickover! It could have the Lexx going to Titan for organic fuel and the crew getting in trouble with the natives.

Whovian, Froudian, Lexxian, etc.Iain Banks
Now THAT geezer could liven a LEXX episode up 🙂
(prolly have us throwing up at the same time)
I’d like to see the show get mean and nasty sometimes – scary nasty.
And on the complete other end of the scale, Terry Pratchet or Tom Sharp 🙂 (Stan is such a ‘Wilt’)

Famous? Living or dead? Famous deceased would be Rod Serling. Living? I sincerely think that YOU, my friend, should try your hand at writing an episode. Please give it some thought. I think that you would be great! R7
What with the presidential theme this season, I think some of the writers from Yes Prime Minister could be good..

As much as I love Rod Serling, he would be completely incompatible with the tone of LEXX. The only Sci Fi writer I can see doing LEXX justice would be Harlan Ellison, because he’s misanthropic enough to get the bordering-on-nihilistic tone of the show right, he’s explosively funny when he has to be, and he’s got a tremendous background in writing excellent TV scripts.

I refuse to comment on this. It’s just too easy.

Thanks, 7! Actually, I already have (plot outline, not script). I think it’s under the original “Lexx writers.”

How about the Pythons doing an ep all together and directed by Terry Gilliam?

“What fresh hell is this?”Spider Robinson, no one elses writing comes close imo to Lexx-like stories.
Margeret Atwood; The loveslaves’s tale
Harlan Ellison; A dead assasian and his robothead
H.G Wells; War of the robothead and the security guard
Octavia Butler; Parable of the protien banks
Ellison would be great, Butler could write a good one (maybe).

I can’t help wondering what kind of script Douglas Adams could have come up with..

My thoughts exactly!
Definitely good ol Harlan Ellison. Aleck gave all the right reasons why he’d be perfect.
