In Sci-Fi/Fantasy, team Watching Through The Static chooses Lexx




Quote:
The crew of the Lexx is motivated largely by fear, lust, and insatiable hunger — factors which gradually came to dominate the story-lines more and more, eventually making Lexx famous for its sexual themes and often bizarre story-lines. Each episode in the later series takes the crew through another stage of their journey through chaotic, hostile universes without any legitimate authority while exploring the relationships between the protagonists and their individual histories.

The crew of the Lexx includes:

* Stanley H. Tweedle (Brian Downey) of planet Ostral-B, Security guard 4th class, the Arch Traitor, agent of a failed rebellion, and, by accident, captain of the Lexx
* Zev/Xev Bellringer of planet B3K, a half cluster lizard, and half renegade love slave. Played by Eva Habermann (as Zev) in the first season and the first 2 episodes of the second season, and Xenia Seeberg (as Xev) thereafter.
* Kai (Michael McManus), last of the Brunnen-G, an emotionless, undead Divine Assassin.
* 790/791/769 (Jeffrey Hirschfield), a robot head that received the love slave programming meant for Zev, in love first with Zev, then, starting in season 3, with Kai.
* The Lexx itself (voiced by Tom Gallant), with which Stanley regularly interacts.
* Lyekka (Louise Wischermann), man-eating plant woman and occasional Lexx crew member.
