Lexx

The Lexx, as the saying goes, is the most powerful ship in two universes.

Captained by security guard level 4, Stanley Tweedle, it is not on a voyage of peace and discovery. It's either running away from His Divine Shadow, blowing up planets (sometimes by accident), bringing abut the destruction of the universe or, as is generally the case, on a futile mission to get Stanley laid.

This Canadian-German co-production contains some of the most iconoclastic ideas in all of filmed Sci Fi. The giant insectoid Lexx is home to sex-starved Stanley and his crew of Xev, the eye-poppingly beautiful half-human half-lizard love-slave, Kai, the reanimated corpse of a dead warrior, and 790, a lippy robot head, who is usually in lust with Xev but always wants to kill Stanley.

With a huge cult following, Lexx is a groundbreaking show that will take you to places in Sci Fi that you've never imagined.
