Product Description
LEXX
Starring:
Brian Downey as Stanley Tweedle
Xenia Seeberg as Xev
Michael McManus as Kai
Jeffrey Hirschfield as 790
They’ve seen a lot of trouble in their time as intergalactic wanderers, but the LEXX crew members really hit the bad-news big time exploring their final frontier: the good old U.S.A. The crew gets a heavy dose of Americana in these four episodes, including a classic car chase, an obsessed mortician and paramilitary wackos. Very special guest star Britt Ekland oozes suburban angst in the episode "Prime Ridge." As seen on the SCI FI Channel.

4.13 769 — The scheming robot head 790 gets equipped for love.
4.14 Prime Ridge — The crew members settle down in the perfect suburb.
4.15 Mort — Stan, Kai and Xev are sheltered by a mortician with a bizarre obsession.
4.16 Moss — A paranoid, post-Waco patriot turns the screws on the captured crew.

4.0 out of 5 stars "Bunny-kins!!!", June 13, 2004

By	D. Knouse (vancouver, washington United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

4.5 stars. The only problem I have with the entire 4th series is that the show feels less like a Sci-fi adventure series and more like a bizarre serial using parody and twisted humor set on the planet Earth. However, many times during the series it works really well. Here are the episodes:

4.13 769--Once again, Robot Head 790 schemes his way into being attached to a body(this time onto the shoulder of a well-equipped Moth Breeder). This episode has its moments, certainly a laugh here and there, but eventually feels like a twist on the same plot used in an episode from season 2 called "791."

4.14 Prime Ridge--American suburbia is now the target of Lexx parody. In Prime Ridge, a town in Rimsore County(that's none-too-subtle), all the inhabitants seem normal. That is, they are normal as far as gun-toting, redneck beef-lovers with warped psychoses are concerned. The 3 main crew members try living in the neighborhood for a while(with a perfect lawn, no less), but eventually, the ATF catches up with them. The ending is reminiscent of "The Wild Bunch" as far as gore and body-count.

4.15 Mort--The crew hide out in "Mort's Fun(eral) Parlor" and discover that Mort, while being a fairly nice guy, is in love with a long-dead girl with various body parts put together a la "Frankenstein." Kai's proto-blood seems to be the answer to Mort's prayers, as it has the power to animate dead tissue. This is a fun spoof on "Re-animator" with some good side-humor when Stan and Xev are recruited as ushers for viewings of the deceased.

4.16 Moss--This is an episode I remembered long after the series ended. Moss, a "post-Waco patriot," steals this show with his absolute insanity. At one point he plays three characters at once(a lawyer for the defense, a prosecutor, and the judge) all in the same scene. I don't remember the actor's name, but he last appeared in a Lexx episode in season 2 called "Lyekka." He is hilarious in both shows, and it is too bad he never got his own running-character like President Priest or Prince so he could show is incredible range for character acting. As in a previous episode on this DVD, "Prime Ridge," there is gore-aplenty here, as well. Enjoy.

Even though many consider the 4th series to be the weakest, there are still many humorous scenes and scenarios that make the 4th series worth owning. "YO-WAY-YO!!"

If you like silly sci-fi, give Lexx a shot. The show is interesting and sexy as well and the characters are very well rounded.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lexx best on Earth, June 17, 2004

By A Customer

I have never been a Sci-Fi fan, in fact I hate all Science fiction, with the exception of Lexx, which is in my humble opinion is the only justification for the existance of TV. I've seen all of it, from start to finish, and when the get to Earth, it improves drastically.
Their twisted interpretaion of Earth and it's inhabitants is genius, preticularly the episodes Prime Ridge and Moss, and especially Prime Ridge. Living in the United States, I must say they got the place down to a tee, Lawncare, beef, guns, and drugs, who could have put it better. I always considered Lexx less Sci-Fi and more dark humour and the Fouth Season proves it.
