Australia released, PAL/Region 0 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player.

The Lexx is a massive "living" bio-engineered spacecraft that resembles a wingless dragonfly. It is capable of destroying a planet with ease, and then eats the debris as a source of fuel. The crew of the Lexx are motivated largely by fear, lust and hunger: factors that gradually come to dominate their lives more and more. A cult hit known for its quirky, sexually charged adult storylines "boldly" taking SCI-FI where others had not gone before! ...Lexx - Season Two - 5-DVD Set ( Tales from a Parallel Universe ) ( Lexx - Season 2 )

4.0 out of 5 stars Grainy transfer mars otherwise great series., April 14, 2004

This review is from: Lexx - The Complete Second Series (DVD)

4.5 stars. I just want to note here that there are numerous scenes where the transfer to DVD is less than perfect. Other times, particularly the special effects shots, the transfer is pristine. This is possibly, arguably, the most original Sci-fi series ever created and it was a mild letdown to see a flawed transfer. However, all these episodes are the uncut versions, and I seriously don't remember this much sexual innuendo(oftentimes bizarre sexual innuendo). But this show always was a little more than left-of-center, which is certainly why it appealed to me so much. Just when I thought there was nothing original on TV, along comes this weird series in the 2a.m. time-slot like a warm wind filled with fresh air. For beginners I suggest getting the first series volumes for a more in-depth backstory on these strangely captivating characters. After that, this is an excellent progression. The stories are crazy and fun, and each volume here contains over three hours of footage. This series has great return value, it's just too bad the transfer is less than perfect.

4.0 out of 5 stars Second Season Winner, June 9, 2003

This review is from: Lexx - The Complete Second Series (DVD)

The first season is the best but the second season is quite good. Pay attention to the other "real people" that have reviewed it. First of all LEXX was out long before Farscape so the ridiculous line about sound familiar is out of context. LEXX is unique in its approach to SciFi. It is far more graphic in violence and erotic behavior than other series you will see. I have purchased the first two seasons on DVD since I think they are the best. The rest are worth seeing but I am not sure about buying.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Viewing, April 2, 2004

By 

Katsurina (NB, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Lexx - The Complete Second Series (DVD)

It is my opinion that the second series of Lexx is the best of the 4.

In this series you get a collection of stand-alone episodes that only hint at an undelying plotline that reveals itself fully in the last few episodes. The Stand alone episodes bring out the risqué humour this series is known for. Each episode is a new adventure and are well worth spending the time to watch.

The special features are bare minimum. If you purchase DVDs based on the special features all you're really getting is quizzes based on the episodes on the DVD.
