    What was crap, hon? I can only assume you’re referring to the Donovan interview which I also missed, I’m sad to say. Why would that convince you to stop watching something you already enjoy? If anything, enjoy it while it lasts, that’s what I’m planning on doing. But, I shall be cheesed if he takes down the entire Lexx crew, like at the end of a bad game of “Risk.” [img]images/smiles/icon_sad.gif[/img]

    He’d better not (visualize angry cluster lizard)

    You didn’t miss much, IMO as the mod didn’t ask alot of the questions we wanted. Time limits, I guess.

    Haha! I can see the Supreme Bean readin’ this and decidin’ to do some quick rewrites for the end of the season. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img] “Hmmmm, let’s see, “And everyone miraculously lives, happily ever after on the Lexx! To be continued????” When will they ever learn, fans can be staved off for years with those three simple words, “to be continued?” We’re [b]fans[/b], after all, therefore we hope unrealistically. If Donovan says, “Oh, sure, we’ll continue,” everyone can go home happy and watch re-runs. He can do other stuff, so can the actors, so can the fans (‘cuz we’ll be waiting for something we [b]know[/b] is coming, instead of trying to make it happen), and all will be happy in SciFi Land. La-La-La-La-La! And, I don’t even take Prozac. [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] Whee! But, I am sorry that the interview brought so many Lexx fans into the dumps; it was probably just a poor or overly-moderated chat. Plus, I’m sure no one even bothered to even offer the man a bribe at any time did they? Well, did they? Uh! I didn’t think so; capitalism has made so little inroads into scifi.

    i dunno blackie, you make many good points as usual, but i think these boys are more vulnerable to boredom than bribes, and that’s why they are moving on…i guess people are down because although we have been told all along that season 4 was it,finito, caputnik, having paul d say it live in chat was kind of a cold splash of water…anyway, they are ending at the top of their game, so that’s good at least, go out with a bang and not a whimper i always say [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

    I agree with you, FX. I try to imagine what it would be like to write or work on Lexx. I, too, would want to “move on” and do other things.

    But think about the next television show or movie they work on. The ads would read:

    [i][b]From the creators of LEXX![/b][/i]

    God only knows what they will dream up next! I can only guess what their next course of action will be. [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]

    there wasn’t anything that the beans said
    that po’d me, it stems from the fact that
    i kept having to re-log on & would miss part
    of the chat (you loose everything that went
    on before) plus they kept loosing paul & lex,
    also i could never tell if any questions i sent got thru to the mod (i’d almost swear
    that mod had scarfed a couple of valium)
    i would have actually been satisfied with a
    “go f**k yourself” at least i would have
    know the chat program was working [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img]

    i think i should give it a rest before i get
    offered some cheese & crackers to go with my
    whine or a midol [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

    (01:57:42) Yessum
    (01:57:48) Great
    (01:57:56) Hi everyone, thanks for joining us here. I’m Ben Trumble for SCIFI. Tonight were pleased to welcome Paul Donovan Executive Producer of SCIFI’s hi series LEXX. Maybe we’ll discover what inspired him to bring the naughty, bawdy crew of the most destructive space craft in two universes to our own helpless little blue planet this season.
    (01:58:06) Brief word about the drill This is a moderated chat — please send your questions for our guest to me, Moderator, as private messages. (To send a private message, either double-click on my name or type “/msg Moderator” on the command line – only without the quotes.)
    (01:58:34) Let me add that Lex is typing for Paul, or so we understand
    (01:58:52) We’re each using one hand…
    (01:59:09) That leaves an empty hand as a cup holder — good idea
    (01:59:15) First question…
    (01:59:17) to : I’d like to know how the mechanism in Kai’s Weapon works.
    (01:59:25) The other hand is also quite busy at the moment, actually….
    (02:00:06) Tyrannosaur… it’s a wind-up spring kinda thing, only better. Check out Wal-Mart
    (02:00:48) to : I’d heard that the Brunnen-G were sort of an aftethought in the first movie.. what made you want to expand on their story?
    (02:00:51) ga
    (02:01:45) We fell in love with the colorful Brunnen-G costumes, and we’re simply NUTS about beehives…. ga
    (02:01:56) to : It seems that most media think that your fan base is mostly teenage boys. I noticed at UnCon this year the majoirty seemed to be older women. Why do you think there is this misconseption about your fanbase and why do you think it appeals to them.
    (02:03:26) We suspect Michael McManus is desperate to get laid, and vulnerable women everywhere sense it… as for teenage boys, decorum forbids us from going there…. ga
    (02:03:39) to : Hello guys: How’s the response for the new season from fans so far?
    (02:03:56) you tell us… ga
    (02:04:05) to : If Sci Fi is there monetarily for a 5th season of Lexx will there be one? Or are you planning on doing anything more after season 4 ends? Movies perhaps?
    (02:04:27) We plan to end the show this season…. ga
    (02:04:58) Any hints as to what kind of projects you might do post-LEXX?
    (02:05:29) We have to complete a prison sentence and mandatory drug-counselling…. ga
    (02:05:55) Ah…a White House series!
    (02:05:57) to : Paul, you have such an impressive body of work spanning TV, film and print. Which is you favorite media to to create?
    (02:06:49) I’ve always considered my greatest triumphs to be in Play-Doh… ga
    (02:07:02) to : What about merchandising? Will you license some nifty LEXX stuff for us to buy?
    (02:07:24) absolutely… what do you want?…. ga
    (02:07:30) to : has season 4 resulted in the story going full circle?
    (02:09:19) We lost Paul and Lex again… I’m sure they’ll be right back
    (02:09:59) You’re back!
    (02:10:05) to : so far, the most satisfying moment of L4 has been the senseless destruction of Pluto. How long are you going to make us wait before you turn that little blue planet into granite??
    (02:10:28) *** Moderator sets mode: +v PaulandLex
    (02:10:36) Try typing guys
    (02:10:43) hello… ga
    (02:10:49) to : so far, the most satisfying moment of L4 has been the senseless destruction of Pluto. How long are you going to make us wait before you turn that little blue planet into granite??
    (02:10:54) we got kicked out for some reason… ga
    (02:11:13) there’s much senseless destruction on the way… ga
    (02:11:26) to : What are your favorite episodes?
    (02:12:20) Brigadoom, 791, Prime Ridge, and Gilligan’s Island episode # 317, and all of Space Precinct…. ga
    (02:12:44) Several people have asked if Season Four will end with the story having gone full circle?
    (02:13:21) Fun? It’s like a vacation in the West Bank…. ga
    (02:13:35) to : where on eatrh (or any other planet for that matter) did you come up with the idea of milk fed boys (supernova) from?
    (02:13:38) We’re big into full circle… ga
    (02:14:46) Lost’em again
    (02:17:50) *** Moderator sets mode: +v Paul
    (02:18:09) yes … ga
    (02:18:29) to : What censoring gets under your skin more: for the sex or the violence?
    (02:18:41) -> *Moderator* how on earth (or any other planet for that matter) did you come up with the idea of milk fed boys (supernova) from?
    (02:18:53) we can’t separate the difference between the two… is there one? ga…
    (02:19:01) to : how on earth (or any other planet for that matter) did you come up with the idea of milk fed boys (supernova) from?
    (02:19:24) It’s based on a small town in Newfoundland… ga
    (02:19:51) to : why do you keep the annoying robot-head around and not just have stan like step on him or something?
    (02:20:15) his day will come, don’t worry… ga
    (02:21:41) ga… ga
    (02:21:44) We lost’em again
    (02:21:52) no you didn’t… ga
    (02:22:02) We’ll there they are
    (02:22:11) to : are you supirsed that most lexxians are goths or fetishist? [img]images/smiles/icon_wink.gif[/img]
    (02:22:45) what’s a “Goth”?… ga
    (02:23:04) to : US and CAnadian fans are begging – can we please have less violence and more sex (especially naked Tweedle)?
    (02:23:35) Naked Tweedle falls in the category of violence, not sex… ga
    (02:23:41) to : Paul, so has the value of the comic tension between Stanley and the Robot head in thier quest for unrequited love has lost its appeal?
    (02:24:47) *** Moderator sets mode: +o SYFYKarl
    (02:24:49) In response to this issue, Stanley pays a visit to Las Vegas in “Viva Lexx Vegas” … ga

    (02:28:26) to : will we see the time prophet again?
    (02:29:14) btw, re whether Lex is Kai’s story, you could say that, but we consider it more of a post modern deconstruction of a thomist take on the post council of Trent world that we must all live in…ga

    (02:30:12) We are both wearing eva haberman’s underwear right now…ga

    Honey, that’s awright to give those of us who missed it the full effect of the chat. I’m still trying [img]images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif[/img] over the fact that they want to end the show, especially after tonight when I saw soooooo much potential for storylines in the future. Ugh!

    I know, I know, and I totally agree, too. But, I don’t see it peterin’ out, yet. The writing is still too good. Plus, I have no idea what the future episodes hold but this last episode left so much room for “to be continued” it was incredible! But, you’re probably right about that boredom thing. Ugh, darn Beans, driven by creative excellence instead of materialistic gain! Darn them all to heck! [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img]

    (Hey, did you know that if you change your signature, the board goes back and changes the signature on stuff you’ve already posted? At least, it seems to have on stuff I’ve posted in the last two days; just this minute, weird, huh?)
