I think Lexx should go on to season 7 or 8, then make more movies. Too many great sci-fi serieses have been cut short in the past. Lexx should be around long enough to reach its full potential, but not so long that its quality deteriorates. Future seasons should never be connected like the episodes in season 3, but rather like the season 2 stories, with an occasional two or three-parter.

People should stop saying that!
Even if Kai were alive, he would not love Zev. Besides, the Stan-Zev chemistry is too perfect.

The character may also have an inspiration in other mythology. Kai is the name of a brave warrior in the folklore of the Celts. I don’t know much about the legendary character, he wasn’t really a deity but he could walk on water (unlike our Kai).

Lexx is clearly set in the far future. 18000 A.D. at the earliest. Otherwise there is no way for humanoids like Kai and humans like Stanley Tweedle to exist in space.
In Lexx 1.1 Kai specifically states that “…my people led humanity to victory in the war against the Insect civilization.” That means that the Brunnen-G are just a sect of humanity (this one specifically adapted for war, in the same manner that the Potataho’ens were adapted for agriculture and the Gollean Clan was adapted for menial labor.The idea of humans evolving separately on different planets is not only bad sci-fi, it’s profoundly anti-Darwinian! It doesn’t take Clifford Pickover to tell that the Lexx creators intended the universes to have been colonized by our ancestors.
When the Lexx lands on Earth, it will either be a Star Trek-style futuristic paradise or a Terminator-style post-apocolyptic nightmare. My theory is that the Lexx Earth will be a pristine utopia, threatened by an Insect menace only our heroes can stop.

-Princess Leia“Episode II will be about the Clone Wars, and the blossoming love between Anakin and the Queen.”
-George LucasYou heard right, Star Wars: Episode II will finally give us a glimpse of the oft-mentioned series of conflicts that precipitate the fall of the Old Republic. The Clone Wars were started by Darth Sidious, and involved the illegal genetic duplication of Mandalorian warriors on the planet Kamino.
I have been following information, rumors, and speculations on the new installment in the Star Wars saga, and according to what is allegedly from an inside source, the film will start with the Battle of Condawn (Concord Dawn in some versions) on Alderaan.
It has been officially confirmed that Ahmed Best will be returning to again give life to Jar Jar Binks, but it is also clearly stated that it will be a cameo appearance equalling less than 15 minutes. George Lucas says he will be less silly, reflecting the need for seriousness in the new, harsher Galaxy of the Wars. Also, persistant yet unsubstantiated rumors hold that Jar Jar’s wife will also appear.
Best is not in the Episode III cast. I’m not sure if I should be posting this in a board for Farscape, but BlackCloud sort of asked for it.

Whovian, Froudian, Lexxian, etc.“Garden” was good, but not great. This season has all been so-so episodes, no really good ones, no really bad ones.
The artistic designs for Garden were wonderful. I thought it was an interesting premise, but the Garden idea wasn’t expanded on much, instead it just turned into a lame vehicle for bringing back Lyekka. Episodes of “Lexx” often start out promising, then degenerate into another sex-romp with Stan trying to “get some.”
I liked the gardeners, though. It’s refreshing to finally get some female characters that aren’t sluts or cannibals. But they weren’t developed and came across as one-dimensional. Stanley, Zev, and Kai all seem out of character. Stan seems willing to let the Lexx crash and stay on Water, and choses to have Lyekka brought back, not considering the consequences, then doesn’t seem to hold the gardeners’ lives at any value as long as the plant girl lives. Zev seems to just wander around then act Prince-ishly evil and mutinous. that Kai thing was just stupid, I think the writers just couldn’t think of anything for him to do, so wrote that in.
It is nice to see Lyekka back, but I wanted the old Lyekka (I never believed she really died in “The End of the Universe”), not just another Trin taking the form of Stanley’s dream girl. How did those gardeners get ahold of that seed, anyway? Is this going to be explained, or abandoned like so many other “Lexx” loose ends?
I seems to me like a lot of old actors are reappearing this season (some of whose characters are already dead!). The writers need to get more original ideas.
Nothing gets resolved, and Prince doesn’t even appear (unless that parrot was him shapeshifting again). The episode could have been so much more, but in the end it was a mediocre half-story in the spirit of “Tunnels.”

I don’t know why people see science fiction as being any less bona fide than other forms of fiction.
Shows like “Lexx” and “Star Trek” have just as well-written plots as mainstream shows, as well as their own creative exoticism. A show is not a comedy just because it is not like real life.——————

Whovian, Froudian, Lexxian, etc.I think Sci-Fi showed quite enough!
“The Key” was a great episode, especially after the boring “Tunnels.” It certainly wasn’t a filler, I don’t understand why you people don’t like it. Its only real problems were Stan’s sort of out-of-character dialog and that awful scene with the dry ice and electrodes and junk.
Prince is neither male nor female (I still think he’s an Insect). He/she/it has bodies that can be male or female, so in this episode “he” really is really female.
It would be nice if this topic could be eliminated and the posts transferred to the other “Key” string.

Lee P. Sherman, code name DalekTek790
Whovian, Froudian, Lexxian, etc.I was thinking “The Key” was possibly the worst episode of “Lexx” ever…then they hit me with the suprise ending!
NEVER saw that coming! I was thinking the writers had gone insane, making Kai fall for Zev, but his true motives were ultimately explained. What I wonder is what order Zev/Prince was going to give the Lexx when Stan interrupted.
790 was funny (as always) with the “I’ll admit I’d never thought much of her…” line. I guess the Robot’s curcuits really were damaged in that fall.
I was thinking this episode would mark the end of the Fire-Water saga (not to mention a major change in Stan and Zev’s relationship), but it seems the “Lexx” writers fooled me again.
Try to figure out the moral of this episode…

Whovian, Froudian, Lexxian, etc.What I posted are the Time Prophet’s exact words (“Shadow,” not “Order” or “Insect”). If you’ll watch “Lexx 1.4: The Giga Shadow” that’s what she says! In “Brigadoom” the words are not the same, but since that is a recreation I see it as less accurate than the original source.
