I can't be the only one who liked this show. I mean, it did last four seasons afterall, so obviously somebody was watching it.
Lexx was an incredibly weird show, even by Canadian standards. It was full of innuendo, often crude and almost always hilariously cheesy, so I totally understand why it wouldn't appeal to everybody. Yet there was always something I found endearing about it, enough to earn it a spot on the very short list of non-Star Trek science fiction series' I ever really became a fan of. Even now I can't help but love it.
So, any other Lexx fans here?

Wish I could really talk about it but I barely remember it. I remember loving the girl who starred in it, but I only watched 2 episodes and got sick of the show and stopped watching it.

I was a fan during it's original run but never bother to watch re-runs unless i catch them out of sheer bordem.
Loved the original Zev sucks she got replaced not that the replacement was bad but personal prefrence loved the white hair lol.

Eva Habermann or Xenia Seeberg? General consensus among the fanbase seems to be that Habermann was the better Zev, but I've always kinda disliked the four movies that comprise the first season. The show was still finding its legs at that point, and the attempts at presenting itself as "serious" science fiction were laughably bad. From season 2 onward there was a noticeable shift in tone. The series became more black comedy, and thus more enjoyable imo.

Weird weird weird show.
Was always conflicted about Xenia Seeberg, she was quite attractive, except for her really disturbing lips.

The dead are not fans. (What I'm saying is yes, yes I loved this show. And it's streaming in it's entirety on Netflix. )

I can only imagine how much editing the version shown in the US must have went through. At the very least they must have cut out all the nudity.

I loved this show I actually only started watching because it was on Channel 5 late at night and at that time it was normally *ahem* a soft version of adult entertainment that was on......hey I was young and liked boobies After watching an episode (It was a season 2 one and I think it had something to do with males becoming females or switching bodies etc.) I loved it and I've got all the episodes now

It would be Xenia Seeberg that got my attention. I never knew this show had nudity! Damn. I must have seen the censored version. If I had seen nudity I probably would have watched it more.

It was only a few episodes that had nudity, so I doubt you saw the censored version. As far as I know, only the unedited version ever aired in Canada. Of course, the show's main selling point for me was always its humour.

Shamelessly bumping my own thread just to post this. The Lexx crew find themselves in Newfoundland. Hilarity ensues.

I like sci-fi, but not 'weird' sci-fi. Tried watching this years ago but was joining in mid season so had no idea what was going on. Don't even think I made it to the end of the episode.

It is kinda heavy on continuity, although to be fair, someone new to the series could probably get by with only seeing a few key episodes. Take for example season 2's "Brigadoom," which does a pretty good job of summing up Kai's backstory (in musical form, no less):
