Lexx - Series 2, Vol. 1 Reviews
Lexx, one of the Greatest shows ever made: Series 2, Vol. 1
I am a huge fan of Lexx. I really think it is one of the best shows I've ever seen on TV. I got into it around the middle of the second season & became an addict after that. I have all of the DVD's & have seen every episode (even the movies) multiple times. I plan to review each DVD, each episode, one by one. So here's my review for Series 2, Volume 1
Episode 2.1: Mantrid - The first of the TV series that takes place after the 4 mini-movies. Although I would highly recommend you see the Mini-movies. If you don't you won't be too lost, the show does a pretty good job of catching you up. The is the episode where our main villian for Season 2 is introducted Mantrid. Overall a very good episode, Mantrid is a cool character. (Episode Rating: 4 out of 5)
Episode 2.2: Terminal - I think one of the sadest episodes of the entire series. One of our beloved main characters dies at the hands of some crazy doctors. Basically Stan gets hurt & they have to rush him to a hospital, they find one, but something is not right with the staff. A great episode & if the death of the Crew member doesn't get you in tears, almost nothing will (Episode Rating: 5 out of 5)
Episode 2.3: Lyekka - Here we get introducted to a very important character in Season 2. Lyekka, she is a plant who needs to eat a lot and she likes eating humans. The Lexx crew is visted by some other people as well & chaos ensues. Lyekka does come to be quite usefull though as shes brings back that deceased crew memeber, sort of. A very funny & sexy episode. (Episode Rating: 5 out of 5)
Episode 2.3: Luvliner - The crew is very, shall we say, randy. The get a message from the Luvliner, a place where you can get what you want for money. They decide to go & get in a heap of trouble while they are there. Basically because the guy who runs it & his friend try to steal the Lexx. A hillarious episode, one of the funiest of the series (Episode Rating: 5 out of 5)
That does it for this review check out my other reviews for Lexx!
ONE OF THE BEST SHOWS I'VE SEEN SINCE STAR TRECK SERIES'
WEIRD AND FUNNY; THE BLACK HUMOR IS SUBTLE AND THE SPECIAL EFFECTS ARE OUTSTANDING. I GOT HOOKED ON IT WHEN THE ORIGINAL MULTT-PART MOVIE WERE SHOWN ON CABLE. I WATCHED THEM AS WELL AS THE RERUN THAT WAS SHOWN MUCH LATER. NOW THE SERIES IS OUT AND IT IS EVEN MORE BIZARRE - IT REMINDS ME OF THE OLD HEAVY METAL MAGAZINES (I STOPPED MY SUBSCRIPSON WHEN IT WAS BOUGHT OUT BY NATIONAL LAMPOON. TOO MUCH GORE AND FATALISTIC OVERTONES.)
THE 3RD SERIES LEANED IN THAT DIRECTION, TOO. BUT, OVERALL I STILL LIKE THE PREMISE OF 1) STANLEY A DORK CONTROLLING A MEGA BIOSHIP CALLED LEXX, 2) KAI (THE GOOD GUY) A 2000 YEAR OLD ASSASSIN CONTROLLED BY 3) "THE DIVINE SHADOW" (AN IMMORTAL BAD GUY) AND 4) ZEV THE FAT KID ON THE BLOCK WHO WAS TURNED INTO A LOVE SLAVE WITH A LIBIDO TO MATCH (BODY AND ALL)BUT WITH A TOUCH OF CLUSTER LIZARD WHEN HER BRAIN WAS SUPPOSED TO FOLLOW THE LOVE SLAVE ATTITUDE. SHE DOES WHAT SHE WANTS, WHEN SHE WANTS, AND SHE'S GOT A THING FOR KAI. OF COURSE THERE IS A A ROBOT HEAD ON WHEELS WHO GOT THE LOVE SLAVE INDOCTRINATION AND IS MADLY IN LOVE WITH ZEV. HOPELESS DEAD END THERE.
ALL SAID, YOU'LL EITHER LOVE OR HATE "LEXX"; GIVE IT A FEW EPISODES BEFORE MAKING UP YOUR MIND - YOU MIGHT BE SURPRIZED!
