Lexx - 01x01 - I Worship His Shadow

Lexx

Lexx is a science fantasy TV series that follows the adventures of a group of mismatched individuals aboard the Lexx, "the most powerful destructive force in the two universes" from which the show takes its name. The Lexx is a living spacecraft that resembles a dragonfly. It is capable of destroying planets with ease, and eats the debris as fuel. The series is a Canadian/German co-production, with some additional funding from Britain's Channel Five. Not originally produced for a U.S. network, the series features more sexual innuendo and, particularly in earlier episodes, nudity than U.S. audiences are generally accustomed to seeing in non-premium programming. The Sci Fi Channel (U.S.) purchased the series from Salter Street Films and began airing versions of Season 2 episodes for U.S. audiences in January 2000.
