Yo-way-yo...Lexx (known in its first season in America as Tales from a Parallel Universe), is a German-Canadian co-produced Space Opera. It ran on the Global Television Network and later the Sci-Fi Channel from 1997-2002.We open in the so-called "Light Universe", which is ruled by His Divine Shadow. He claims to protect the Light Universe from the evils of the "Dark Universe", but it's later revealed that the Dark Universe is our universe. He converts a giant insect into an unstoppable planet-killer called the Lexx. This thing is like a '69 Mustang which he's been restoring, and he can't wait to use it. Then a quartet of idiots somehow steal the deadliest weapon ever made from the most evil being to ever exist, and now must run for their lives.The show takes Sigmund Freud's axiom that the sex drive and the death drive are the two main forces controlling human nature and plays them to the hilt. Its motley collection of weirdos zoom around the galaxy looking to get laid, never learn their lessons, and blow up every planet they visit. Rinse and repeat. Take the fatalism of Wagnerian opera, the budget of a Sega CD game, and the logic (and sometimes acting) of softcore porn, and that's Lexx.The show originated as a series of four TV movies, each one featuring a notable guest star: Barry Bostwick, Tim Curry, Rutger Hauer, and Malcolm McDowell. The second season was spent wandering the two universes.As a cost-saving measure and an opportunity for long-form storytelling, the Lexx spent the last two seasons parked mostly in orbit. Season Three revolved around a new binary system: Fire, a barren wasteland, and Water, a lush paradise. It also introduced Prince, a primeval force of chaos in the shape of Nigel Bennett (of Forever Knight fame). The fourth and final season planted Lexx in present day Earth—as seen through the lens of Paul Verhoeven and David Cronenberg while tripping on LSD. It satirically skewered modern culture, with targets including militia fanatics, pretentious actors, politicians, internet porn, Reality Television, and Kaiju films.The show was often described as the anti-Star Trek, and, fittingly, you could say the show's five-year mission was to explore strange new worlds and blow them up, seek out the sleaziest and seediest new life and civilization, and to boldly come where no man has come before.

Bizarre Alien Biology
 Lexx / int_1161fb48
comment
Bizarre Alien Biology: Lots, but the Lexx itself takes the cake. It's a Manhattan-sized genetically engineered insect with a planet-killing Wave-Motion Gun, fetish accommodations, and it reproduces by mating with a dragonfly from Holland. The Insect Civilization is also worth mentioning; they naturally secrete a substance that re-animates dead human flesh. They have organs that allow the passing of life-essence from one body to another, and it even works across species, but it isn't without risks; an essence passing to a body that still has a mind of its own combines with it and is permanently altered, as seen by the final His Divine Shadow with its improperly prepared human host, as well as Mantrid.

Anyone Can Die: If an episode has guest characters, chances are they're going to be dead by the end of the episode (or several episodes later). See Red Shirt below. And it's not just for guest characters, even the main cast is fair game. In fact Every character in the show dies at least once.

Card-Carrying Villain
 Lexx / int_137f2d7
comment
Card-Carrying Villain: Prince gleefully describes himself as "evil" and is out to cause as much suffering as possible just 'cause. It's heavily implied that Prince is a Satan equivalent and that Planet Water is like Heaven, which would certainly explain it. Grand Prosecutor Jihanna from "Stan's Trial" fits this trope to an extent - she considers being called "an evil woman" a compliment.

Immortals Fear Death
 Lexx / int_13d20b89
comment
Immortals Fear Death: The Brunnen-G discovered how to halt the aging process. Since death was no longer inevitable, most of the Brunnen-G became extremely paranoid of anything that could threaten their lives, to the point that they wouldn't even leave their homes. They were oddly lazy about it, though; they were so confident in the power of the defenses they set up that by the time an enemy actually came for them they had degraded to the point of uselessness through millennia of neglect, and they punished the younger people who tried to warn them about it. Ironically, the same Brunnen-G who cringed in fear of anything that might kill them felt nothing but relief when faced with inevitable death again in the form of His Divine Shadow. It was less death itself and more uncertainty that the Brunnen-G feared.

Technically Living Zombie: While the "local" zombies on Ruuma are really dead (being the corpses of the Divine Predecessors, whose brains were removed on death), their bite is infectious, and begins to turn Xev into one of these. Luckily, Kai is able to draw out the poison before the condition becomes permanent.

Transferable Memory: Several times. His Shadow can draw out the memories of whoever he kills, and Kai can extract memories by touching a living or undead brain. How they achieve this is unknown. Prince can find memories with a touch to the face, even if the subject's conscious mind has forgotten them. He doesn't even need to touch the person if they're dead and awaiting judgment.

All There in the Manual
 Lexx / int_17ce80aa
comment
All There in the Manual: From a DVD feature; 790's chunk of human brain really did come from a woman. Specifically, one who propositioned a young, attractive Divine Order priest only for him to turn her in for breaking the law in doing so; she thought he'd made a pass at her, but it was actually his old and unattractive mentor that did so. This feature was commissioned by the Sci-Fi channel as an introduction to Lexx when they first broadcast the second series since, while they had run on cable years earlier, the original movies were relatively unknown in the US at the time.

Naked on Arrival: When Zev is regenerated into Xev, she emerges completely stark naked, save for her old rubber harness (and thick goo to censor her lady parts). Earlier in the same episode, Lyekka is first shown completely naked, although as she possesses neither sex organs nor nipples, no censoring is used (her body is just smooth and blank all over).

Human Resources

comment
Human Resources: In "Eating Pattern", the eponymous Pattern is made from processed body parts. A running theme with Cluster society - harvested organs from criminals are used as components in the construction of bio-mechanical robots, while the remainder of the body and any leftover organs are used as food for the living ships Lexx and, later, the Gigashadow. Residents are not aware of the full extent of this use, instead being told only of a 'protein bank' into which all corpses go and from which robots are produced. Seen in all it's gory detail episodes one and four of Season 1. Brizon's life support methods, especially that tank in his castle. Brrr.

comment
Cosy Catastrophe: Played with. The Order didn't bother Cleansing several isolated and low-population groups: A space-station hospital still has the staff to perform bizarre biological experiments, and nobody from Potatoho even knows the Order existed in the first place. Further, the Cleansing stripped planets of humans to feed the Giga rather than of metals, fertile soils, etc., so resource extraction and trade networks haven't completely broken down: For example, there are still manganese mines and garbage transporters. There's even a market for minor luxuries, as we see when Feppo and Smoor visit a massage parlor. On the other hand, a lot of the people who survived were mad scientists, contract killers, cultists, and xenophobes, so they aren't necessarily safe for our protagonists to deal with.

Crapsack World
 Lexx / int_21d70919
comment
Crapsack Universe: The setting is very dark. The first thing Stan and Zev do with The Lexx is flee into space seeking a nice place to live. They never find one. His Shadow's realm. Late fees are paid in organ donations and The Theocracy expects fanaticism. Also, what can one really say about a regime crazy enough to have built the Lexx in the first place? The Divine Order dominates the Light Universe. Their propaganda insists that the Dark Zone is even worse due to its chaotic lawlessness. From the few examples we see of the Dark Zone, it appears the propaganda is true.

I'm a Humanitarian: Giggerota the Wicked, who dresses in human skin and tends to refer to people as types of meat. On rare occasions, Zev/Xev can involuntarily transform into a Cluster Lizard. While in this form, she has devoured other humans. In "White Trash", the redneck Gollean family are cannibals, and end up killing and devouring the space miners from "Love Grows".

Ambiguously Human: Giggerota, the Cannibal, who wields a long, prehensile tongue, but refers to herself as "human"; notable because Human Aliens are common in the setting and Rubber-Forehead Aliens are practically unknown. A handful of Fire's élite, like Duke and May, know much more about the nature of their world than the average inhabitant, and can retain memories from one life to the next.

The only sane woman among the Space Truckers transporting "class-13" hazmat in "Love Grows" tries to enforce compliance by threatening to report her coworkers, but it turns out that the regulators are in on their cost-cutting shenanigans. The crew winds up infected with a virus that swaps everyone's sex.

Shoot the Shaggy Dog
 Lexx / int_272abb98
comment
Shoot the Shaggy Dog: Some episodes amount to this. The crew of The Lexx are not heroes. When the ship arrives at an unfamiliar Crapsack World, they do not save the day—to the contrary, they often make things even worse or get everyone killed in an Earth-Shattering Kaboom. From their misadventures, they usually learn nothing. Especially prominent in the first half of Season 2. Though the crew do not know it, Mantrid is following The Lexx to every place they visit. Everything they do (which is usually nothing good anyway) is undone at the end of the episode as Mantrid's drone swarm destroys the place.

Lampshade Hanging: Several instances. Some of the standouts: Regarding Prince's ability to teleport: Season 2, with its higher budget, sees a complete overhaul and re-design of the cardboard sets making up the Lexx' interior. At the beginning of the episode "Norb", Stanley actually asks the Lexx why it looks different. The Lexx explains that it wasn't quite fully grown when they took off, and the new look means the Lexx has reached full maturity.

He winds up accidentally falling over the edge and having to beg Zev to haul him back up.

Bury Your Gays: Justified Trope. Aside from the Catholic schoolgirls in Doctor Longbore's ship, every single character in the show has died at least once, including the regulars, and often in a cruel and unusual way. Brother Trager in "Nook" seemed to be Too Good for This Sinful Earth, and moved Stanley to genuine regret that he couldn't return Trager's feelings and genuine remorse over Trager's murder. And when the men of Girltown (Who seemed to be 'guilty' of nothing more than being drag queens) escape their Hell and seem set for a more happy life in Garden, they are promptly consumed by Lexx.

Sorting Algorithm of Evil: The early seasons play this straight from His Divine Shadow, to the Gigashadow, to Mantrid who wants to consume two universes (although they're technically all different manifestations of the same being). It's debatable whether or not Seasons 3 and 4 are a subversion. While Prince is physically limited to a single solar system, his influence could be seen as greater than any of the previous Big Bads because he's the devil, and later revealed to be death itself.

After the End: The Light Universe in season two appears to be this, after the Divine Order's cleansing. Nothing even remotely resembling a civilized world appears, only isolated outposts ("Terminal", "Luvliner"), backwater planets that don't seem to have contact with the larger universe ("Lyekka", "Nook"), and decimated worlds struck by the cleansing and collapse of the Divine Order ("White Trash", "Twilight"). A vibrant, thriving universe this is not.

Auteur License: Every single one of the show's 61 episodes was written or co-written by some combination of Paul Donovan, Lex Gigeroff, and Jeffrey Hirschfield. When the show was renewed for a fourth season of twenty-four episodes (its longest), a grand total of four had other writers, and even then they were all co-written by one of the original trio. Notably, when Hirschfield temporarily left in season three (while continuing to voice 790), Donovan and Gigeroff wrote all thirteen episodes by themselves.

Later in "769," 790 has every intention of raping Kai when Kai doesn't express any interest in taking advantage of his new "parts," and is about five seconds away from doing it right in front of everyone before events conspire to stop him. Kai's reaction to this entire chain of events is hilariously apathetic, while Stan protests that it's Sick and Wrong.

Death Is Cheap: Invoked, subverted and lampshaded; many of the characters who die in the second season are alive on Earth six thousand years later after the Lexx blows up the afterlife. It Makes Sense in Context. Subverted again by Kai, who dies in the first scene and stays dead, but animate, through the whole series until the finale, where he's brought back to life just before an event he can't possibly survive.

Teens Are Monsters: In "Wake the Dead" and "Haley's Comet" teens invade the Lexx and prove themselves to be vacuous, self-centered, sex-obsessed (this is Lexx), and absolutely cruel little shits to the insecure Fat Idiot that enables them to get what they want in the first place. Both episodes also have said fat idiot snapping and causing both the deaths of the other teens and nearly the deaths of the crew, so no one is sympathetic. To be fair, the deaths in "Wake The Dead" actually have very little to do with Gimmel (said fat kid), although he assumes that his actions led to the death of the first kid to die.

But What About the Astronauts?
 Lexx / int_393a1e86
comment
But What About the Astronauts?: The second season features these types prominently, taking place in the Light Universe After the End. Of course, this being Lexx, and Mantrid consuming the universe planet by planet, most of these astronauts don't survive their introductory episode. "Lyekka" and "Wake the Dead" are both notable, the former featuring the first astronauts from an unincorporated planet being picked up by Lexx right before their world is destroyed and the latter having a group of teenagers who survived the fall of the Reform Planets because their stasis pods never woke them up.

Character Development
 Lexx / int_3b113b7
comment
The screwed-up kind, but true nonetheless. Character Development is slow, but it's obvious that by the end of the series, Xev and Stanley have gone from bickering neighbors to actual friends, and both consider Kai as such instead of the eyecandy / useful utility he starts off as. Stanley even seems genuinely broken up when the Lexx dies of old age, although he could just be fretting the inconvenience of it.

Foregone Conclusion: Subverted. Kai is dead. Kai needs Protoblood to remain animate. All sources of Protoblood are gone. It's a foregone conclusion that Kai will, eventually, use all of his Protoblood and his friends will have to deal with the fact that he won't be around after that. Until Prince lives up their bet at the last minute and boy howdy, the foregone conclusion doesn't seem like it was so bad ...

Establishing Series Moment: The very first moments of the show are a main character's homeworld and entire race being destroyed, after which he, like a warrior heading for Valhalla, bravely flies his starfighter in a suicide run towards the bridge of the enemy's starship. It's the perfect introduction to the Apocalypse How and constant callous death that follows.

Spock Speak: Kai does possibly the best Spock Speak in television history, superior even to the Trope Namer. Lexx, the titular ship, does a pretty decent job of it itself. Pretty much the only ones who don't talk this way are the thoroughly human characters of a quite low level of knowledge about things, Stanley and Xev/Zev, the ones who are typically having things explained to them in perfect expository Spock Speak.

Long Hair Is Feminine: Averted. Zev|Xev's hair doesn't go much past her shoulders until the third season, despite her having "been altered by a machine into the ultimate female form," and Bunny sports a pixie cut in seasons 2 and 3. Kai's hair is much longer and more elaborately styled than either of theirs ever is. However, the trope might exist in-universe for the culture of Fire, since May's hair is longer than most of the male characters'.

Would Hurt a Child: Many. Mantrid proves this with Norb when he tricks the kid into flying into a candy-cane built structure that's really composed of drone arms. When the arms attack him, you never see the death. Played for Laughs in "Lafftrack" when Stan punts the head off of an android child and sends it flying across the room. The difference is that Stan knows the kid isn't a living being in the first place.

Black Comedy Rape
 Lexx / int_4c851777
comment
Black Comedy Rape: A lot. Part of Stan's backstory revealed Gigashadow. It was what broke his will and got him to reveal (part of) the data shipment he was carrying. While Feppo and Smoor are comically-grotesque Depraved Homosexual sadists, Stan's trauma is played seriously. In "Super Nova" the Poet turns out to have rigged the "Love" section of the Chamber of Memory to inseminate the first woman who entered with his semen. Unfortunately, the sensors shorted out and it grabbed Stanley instead. Happens to 790 in "Luvliner". In "791", 790 attaches himself to and reactivates a cyborg body which turns out to contain the consciousness of its original owner, a Depraved Homosexual rapist who goes after Stanley. Once he's about to force himself on Stanley, a helpless 790 briefly takes over to express his utter embarrassment at the situation with the most comically deadpan tone of voice possible. Later in "769," 790 has every intention of raping Kai when Kai doesn't express any interest in taking advantage of his new "parts," and is about five seconds away from doing it right in front of everyone before events conspire to stop him. Kai's reaction to this entire chain of events is hilariously apathetic, while Stan protests that it's Sick and Wrong. Stan in seasons 3/4 repeatedly goes past trying to talk people into sleeping with him and into threats, blackmail or actually laying hands (and tongues, etc) on women who have no idea what he's doing or are visibly disgusted by it. In "P4X" we see a porn site which apparently kidnaps people, chains them up, and then mashes them together in front of the cameras in order to be rape on both sides. Tricking a blindfolded man into having sex with a (semi-sentient) corpse instead of Xev. Not sure if the corpse consented either.

Yes, that includes the fourth and final season's setting ... and that frees the Big Bad, who gets away scot-free in the end. Also, way too many likable Recurrers wind up Killed Off for Real for a show that's supposed to be comedic.

Sci-Fi Bob Haircut: Xev's first hairstyle when she tumbles out of Lyekka's pod is this (and she's depicted on this trope's page). Turns up as part of the uniform for the Dark Lady's servants in "Woz," and in wig form on Lulu in "Fluff Daddy." The fact that she wears it while shooting an SF-themed porn flick suggests that the writers were familiar with the trope.

Et Tu, Brute?: Longbore pulls this in Season 4 when it's revealed that he's not building the rocketship Noah for him and his science assistants, but for him alone and a bunch of (probably underage) schoolgirls. When the assistants object, he holds them at bay and tries to escape only to be thwarted by President Priest and Bunny.

The Bridge
 Lexx / int_508ef715
comment
The Bridge: Very different from the typical version. Perhaps because the Lexx does not communicate or take commands from anyone but its current captain, the bridge has only one seat, and the closest thing to a console is some sort of energy/holographic display activated by holding one's hand in front of the captain's chair. Most of the bridge is just a big, empty circle, surrounded by a deep moat of sorts.

Disproportionate Retribution: A lot, especially when the Divine Order is involved. The Lexx was designed to destroy entire planets for harboring heretics, and people receive the sentence of vivisection for trifling crimes. President Priest tends to inflict this with nukes. He demolishes all of Newfoundland because one man who lives there played a Bed Trick on Bunny.

Bookends: Compare the beginning of the first episode to the end of the last. There's a subtle one in the same two episodes; when the Lexx takes its final shot and blows up Earth before it dies, the music is a less hopeful-sounding remix of the track that plays in the premiere when the Lexx first escapes from the Cluster.

Casual Interstellar Travel: It has to exist in order for the action of the stories to take place, but the exact mechanism is never specified and the Lexx just "slows down" or "speeds up."

Dark Is Not Evil
 Lexx / int_575fd5e2
comment
Dark Is Not Evil: Kai is an undead, de-carbonized Divine Assassin with the blood of millions on his hands. His skin is deathly pale and he dresses entirely in black, giving him the look of a bizarre Edward Scissorhands. Scary, to be sure, but by the end of the first movie he regained his memories and had a Heel–Face Turn. For the rest of the show's run he is a noble, if aloof, hero (except for the episode where the idiot teenagers messed with his protoblood and turned him temporarily into an axe murderer). In the episode "Woz", the crew (and the audience) is led to believe that the Dark Lady (whose real name is never given, and who wears all black, with only her eyes showing) is an evil woman manipulating innocent young ladies into becoming love slaves, selling them into sex slavery, and setting their expiry dates for seven days after their love slave transformations. This couldn't be further from the truth - the women come to her willingly to be transformed into love slaves, and they last a lot longer than a mere seven days after their transformation.

Devil, but No God

comment
Devil, but No God: Fire has a ruler who even argues with the deceased and the departed’s double for punishment until the end of time (which would start again in the next cycle of time) Water inexplicably does not. Even weirder, Prince claims that he has no idea how he came into being, or how and why he has his job. Assuming he's telling the truth, God literally does not exist and the Devil is more along the lines of a force of nature. This sets up the later revelation that he's actually Death itself, not just the Devil.

Disney Villain Death: Sissy Gollean and Brud Parsnip meet their ends as a result of being pushed/thrown off the bridge of the Lexx. Subverted by Giggerota, as she turns out to be superhumanly tough. Happens a few times on the planets Fire and Water, where various circumstances force characters to spend a lot of their time high above the land/sea: Bunny, two incarnations of Prince, and a drag queen from Girltown fall victim to this trope. Prince's underlings from "Battle" may or may not qualify, depending on how high their balloons are and how well they can swim.

Batman Can Breathe in Space: While his already being dead explains why space can't kill him, Kai can also talk in space.

Sanity Slippage

comment
Sanity Slippage: Dr. Longbore starts out season 4 as slightly eccentric, but focused on the reasonable goal of creating a ship which can carry plenty of breeding humans away from Earth before the planet's looming destruction by particle-collider experiments. However, as his students report, he loses it over the course of the season, to the extent that he ultimately chooses not only to just take himself and a harem of attractive girls off the planet, he actually speeds up its destruction, on purpose, by making his own collider. 790 has been obsessive and callous since the first episode, but several brain injuries, a few thousand years powered down, a couple of reassemblies, and an unknown amount of time spent alone on the Lexx start catching up with him big time in season 3. By season 4, he's moved from mocking and inconveniencing semi-plausible romantic/sexual rivals to aiding assassins' efforts to kill them. Exaggerated in the series finale, when he has the Lexx blow up an entire planet because people there are "actually or potentially" interested in Kai.

Formula-Breaking Episode: Brigadoom, the musical episode in Season 2. Incidentally also a minor use of the Vanishing Village trope, surprisingly. The third and fourth seasons depart from the episodic Space Opera format and are centered around one location each.

Planet of Hats
 Lexx / int_67f26dcc
comment
Planet of Hats: Surprisingly rare, but played ludicrously straight when it shows up, such as a planet of hillbillies or the planet that is essentially "Space Idaho". Subverted by the Insect Civilization, who are defeated because their methodical nature makes them too predictable, but one Insect thinking outside the box manages to unite humans across 20, 000 planets under an oppressive government that literally feeds its own rebirth, essentially using humans to defeat themselves.

The Reveal
 Lexx / int_6b2b3b59
comment
The Reveal: A few: Season One: His Divine Shadow is actually the last Insect, and he orchestrated the entire run of the Divine Order as a way of using humans to defeat themselves. Season Three: Water and Fire are Heaven and Hell, although it's obvious from early on. The bigger reveal is that they're also Counter-Earth. Season Four: The Lexx has been nearing the end of its natural lifespan since the third season, and it's been pregnant since Dutch Treat. A meta-reveal happens when the mass of the Higgs Boson is shown as .13 repeating; the characters almost certainly know, but no one actually cares and thus, no one says it for the audience to hear.

Meaningful Echo: The Hymn of the Brunnen-G is sung several times in the series, always as a beautiful heroic sacrifice. The final reprise itself is just wow ...

Covers Always Lie
 Lexx / int_7315fd38
comment
Covers Always Lie: The Echo Bridge DVDs try waaay too hard to sell the show as being moody and dramatic instead of gleeful schlock. All the main characters (and Malcolm McDowell, who is featured prominently despite being in exactly 1 of the 61 episodes) have extreme close-ups with gritty, determined scowls — except for Kai, who smirks, wears a trenchcoat, and has a sword slung over his shoulder. That's enough to make anybody who's actually seen the show do a spit-take. They also rely extensively on stock sci-fi landscapes that aren't actually from the show, and those that are (like the surface of Brunnis) have space marines with powered armor firing laser chainguns.

STD Immunity: Played with. The crew of the Lexx never seems to worry about STDs, whether because Stan and Xev are used to the League's sophisticated medical treatments (as Stan says, "People don't die of infections"), because they don't know about them (Xev was raised in a box, after all) or because they're too horny and shortsighted to care. OTOH, Schlemmi the pimp's complaint about seeing too many "open sores" suggests that STDs are a problem in the less-advanced regions of the Light Universe.

Let Us Never Speak of This Again: When 790 transplants his head to the headless body of a cyborg pilot in "791", the sadistic, rapist pilot's consciousness frequently takes over that of 790 and attempts to force himself on Stan. After Stan manages to hold back the pilot's consciousness (or so he thinks...), a horribly embarrassed 790 says "... I won't tell if you won't." After Stan and Xev turn back to their normal selves in "Love Grows", both are deeply ashamed and embarrassed at the fact that they slept together while gender-swapped.

Nice Job Breaking It, Hero!
 Lexx / int_7fbb2a3
comment
Nice Job Breaking It, Hero: A lot. Much of the show's comedy is based on the protagonists' habit of causing disasters. The Lexx crew give Mantrid the means to escape from his prison, and in a Humongous Mecha body, at that. Despite Prince's ominous warnings about 'maintaining the balance', Xev insists on blowing up the planet Fire. Prince then hijacks the Lexx and uses it to blow up Water as well, destroying the afterlife forever and condemning every good soul who will ever live to nothingness. Of course, seeing as how the process to end up on Fire is blatantly rigged and a lot of innocent people suffer there (see Girltown), this isn't necessarily the worst thing. In "Apocalexx Now," the crew of the Lexx mercifully releases some prisoners of war who are still trapped in horrible conditions, decades after the war's end. Unfortunately, the crew doesn't understand the dynamics between their countries or the prisoners' level of derangement, and the prisoners (who misinterpret Stan and Xev's comments as meaning that the war is escalating, rather than over) wind up committing a massacre at an international summit.

Satanic Archetype: Double-subverted. Prince rules a hot desert planet populated by people who suspiciously resemble ones that the Lexx crew knew thousands of years ago, and throws Stan into a truly hellish level of his city; however, he also makes some reasonable-sounding points about necessary evils, and impresses Xev as "a great man" in his first couple of episodes. He drops the act in "Gametown," and eventually reveals that he does, indeed, consider it his calling to "tempt those who can be tempted and punish those who deserve it".

All Planets Are Earth-Like
 Lexx / int_8252652c
comment
All Planets Are Earthlike: Averted. Stan and Xev have to wear pressure suits when responding to a distress call in "791," as the survivors had crashed on a planet incapable of supporting human life. However, since humans seem to be the only species with a widespread presence, all of the permanently-populated planets that the Lexx crew visits have Earth-like atmospheres and gravities.

Just Before the End: Season four is this for Earth. As 790 notes, it's a "class-13 planet" which will almost certainly destroy itself within the year, most likely in an accident caused by scientists researching the Higgs-Boson particle. It doesn't help matters that everyone from Fire and Water has reincarnated on Earth, and most of them Came Back Wrong. 790 himself preempts Earth's anticipated fate by having the Lexx blow up the planet, when he decides that one of Dr. Longbore's students is competition for Kai.

Rewrite: In the end of the first season the entire League of 20,000 Planets is stripped of life as part of the Gigashadow's long-panned resurrection, and the heroes happened to return there as a complete coincidence and only arrive after it's been delayed by rebel clerics. The Gigashadow shrugs off the Lexx's attacks and is only defeated because Kai's pet cluster lizard found and ate it's brain. As of season two it's been changed to the crew awakening it prematurely and the Lexx killing it and they visit several former League worlds during the season.

Bathos: A lot of this. For example, when Stan asks the Lexx why it blew up a planet of sentient robots, it turns out that the Lexx didn't know what the word "cancel" meant. Zev's incomprehension in the face of death is sad, especially since it stems from her upbringing in a box. However, her smoke-inducing attempts to jump-start dead bodies are comically ridiculous. When people mention that Stan caused the destruction of a hundred Reform Planets, he usually shoots back that it was only ninety-four!

Crippling Overspecialization: The Lexx's only weapon/defense is its Wave-Motion Gun. This has caused its fair share of problems during the series.

The Wife Bank's idea of an education clearly left a lot to be desired— Zev|Xev is able to make just about any man want her, but she can't read, barely understands the concept of money, and is a horrible cook.

Greater-Scope Villain: As it turns out, the Divine Order was a front for a survivor from the ancient Insect Civilization, who reappears as the Giga Shadow. Even His Shadow didn't know The Giga's true identity.

Fridge Logic
 Lexx / int_9dfd7154
comment
This leads to an obvious example of Fridge Logic: How can the entire history of the universe by cyclical and repeat itself exactly, if people sometimes transfer back and forth between the Two Universes? That would only work if both universes were exactly the same age and cycled concurrently, but since one of them has its Big Crunch in the season 2 finale, and the main characters transfer to the other one, which is still going strong, the two universes aren't the same age.

Our Vampires Are Different
 Lexx / int_9f63d4f1
comment
Our Vampires Are Different: Kai the undead assassin is a borderline example. Other than needing "protoblood", being immortal and looking like a vampire, he doesn't have a whole lot in common with them. In fact, he could also be called a revenant-analogue than a vampire. The divine executioner Vlad on the other hand is the real deal: is pretty strong, immortal, flies using batwings, has a haunted castle in Transylvania where she sleeps in a coffin and her bite can turn anyone into her minions. Its unknown if all divine executioners are like her, since she is the only one we ever see.

Samus Is a Girl
 Lexx / int_a18d407b
comment
Samus Is a Girl: The Lexx is actually female, and gets pregnant after mating with a dragonfly from Holland. Less of a spoiler for German viewers, where the Lexx is voiced by a woman. How can you tell? It very clearly has sex with the dragonfly; not just animal/insect/what-have-you mating, it's a blatant sex scene with a blatant vagina analog on the Lexx. The other characters even realize what's going on. Subverted by 790; the cube of human brain that functions as his CPU is from a woman, and he sometimes cites his femininity when it helps his arguments (like when he needs Xev to sympathise with him) but his personality is male to the point where he doesn't even entertain the possibility of getting girl parts instead of a penis when he gets the chance.

My God, What Have I Done?
 Lexx / int_a1b141f4
comment
My God, What Have I Done?: Stanley occasionally has moments of genuine regret and remorse concerning the consequences of his actions and the fact that his incompetence and cowardice have killed billions. The emotional weight of the destruction that earned him the name "Arch-Traitor" is revealed in "Stan's Trial". Giggerota points this out in "Patches in the Sky" when he accidentally blows up a mining planet staffed by robots. Comically downplayed in "End of the Universe," where the crew briefly reflects on the fact that they created Mantrid and thus indirectly destroyed the whole Light Universe, then shrugs it off.

Genocide Backfire
 Lexx / int_a1d4e0a8
comment
Genocide Backfire: Even though His Divine Shadow does wipe out the Brunnen-G, the one cadaver he reanimates as a "screw you" to the race ends up bringing down the empire. The plants of Season 4 are ultimately destroyed when the heroes attempt to protect Earth from their appetite; if they'd bypassed Earth (or only eaten Japan as agreed, instead of going back on their word,) they'd have gotten away. The Insect Civilization counts, as the one insect that the Brunnen-G missed slaughtered all of them (even Kai) ages later. Also, the crew of the Lexx missing out on the cleansing might count, as any human resistance should have been eaten by then. The insect war would also count. Humans apparently wiped out the whole insect civilization. Oh wait, there was one survivor, the Gigashadow. Guess how well that worked for humanity. The series seems to like this trope.

Casual High Drop: Kai, a lot. Justified in that he's a decarbonized, undead cyborg built to withstand almost any punishment. It does cause him serious damage one time (although he's still pretty casual about it), when he drops all the way from the Lexx's orbit to a planet's surface. Cluster lizards can pull this off, although possibly not to the same extent as Kai. Even Squish, an infant, survives a fall of hundreds of feet without apparent injury. Once Xev masters Cluster lizard locomotion, she's able to jump from close to the height of a smokestack and roll off the momentum.

Love at First Sight: Well, not necessarily at first sight, but it certainly didn't take long for Zev to fall in love with Kai. Also, in the Season 2 episode "Luvliner", Varrtan, a male prostitute, falls in love at first sight with Xev. The poor guy is vaporised by the episode's main villain just minutes later. 790's first words upon seeing Zev after being programmed with the love slave personality meant for her. Same goes for when he fell in love with Kai who fixed him in Season 3.

Red Shirt: ANYONE who tries to have sex with Xev, and then delays for ANY reason. Honestly, if these idiots would just get biz-AY, they wouldn't get killed/crushed/eaten/turned into a woman, etc. Actually the Entire Series was a long Running Gag almost solely based on this trope. Lexx's creators were admitted fans of Star Trek and made most of the episodes in the not so subtle gag that ALL of the supporting characters die while only the main cast survives to the next episode. Unfortunately the entire main cast only consisted of 5 characters (including Lexx itself) so the entire universe(s) and their inhabitants became expendable.

Retool: Two. The first two seasons are a picaresque Wagon Train to the Stars travelogue about wandering through a weird, wild universe of lust and death. Then, season three retools the show into a largely stationary Planetary Romance about a binary system that's the show's equivalent of heaven and hell and emphasizes the morality play melodrama over the sci-fi oddity. Then, season four retools the show again to become a skewed, satirical take on modern day Earth and its foibles. While it certainly keeps the show fresh, the three "phases" are vastly different to one another and oftentimes don't even feel like the same series. Not to mention the titular spaceship is basically nerfed at the beginning of season three and remains largely immobile and irrelevant until just before the Grand Finale.

No OSHA Compliance
 Lexx / int_b47d95be
comment
No OSHA Compliance: Prince's city provides an extreme example, as workstations on the ninth level include built-in guillotines to behead anyone who gets too tired to keep cycling (which, since their sentence is eternal), means everyone, over and over again. The balloon factory in Girltown is no picnic, either: The drag queens are chained to prevent escape, while working in near-lethal heat. The only sane woman among the Space Truckers transporting "class-13" hazmat in "Love Grows" tries to enforce compliance by threatening to report her coworkers, but it turns out that the regulators are in on their cost-cutting shenanigans. The crew winds up infected with a virus that swaps everyone's sex. The design of the Lexx itself. The bridge is suspended hundreds of feet above an indoor swamp, and there's no railing to catch any clumsy visitors. Really, it's rare for this trope to not be in play in workplaces.

Anti-Hero Team: Stan threatens to blow up inhabited planets for frivolous reasons, Xev usually means well but doesn't have any great plan beyond new personal experiences, Kai turns Ax-Crazy if the person waking him up inputs the wrong sequence, and 790 would happily leave everyone in the universe to die if he could stay with his current beloved. Still, they usually pull together when faced with a greater cosmic danger (although 790 becomes less and less reliable as the show progresses), and they collectively save most of the Dark Universe in both season 2 and season 4.

Came Back Wrong
 Lexx / int_b983a56b
comment
Came Back Wrong: Several times in different ways. Kai. He is resurrected by His Divine Shadow as a subservient Soulless Shell, a mockery of the passionate hero he was in life. Of course this was completely intentional as part of His Shadow's attempt to Screw Destiny. 790 was a reasonably contributing member of the crew in season 2, who Zev risked a lot to save. Unfortunately, after a few traumatic reboots and some brain damage, the robotic personality took a turn for the worse. Most of the "life-essences" that reincarnate on Earth after the destruction of Water and Fire seem worse for the wear. The living Kai is an incoherent performance artist whose idea of method acting involves stapling up his feet, Bunny has turned into The Ditz as well as a cheerleader for President Nuke 'em, Moss is a conspiracy nut who thinks that all numbers which can be multiplied or divided to make the number 6 demonstrate evil, and Lulu (likely the reincarnation of either season-2 Lyekka or the human Lyekka that Stan knew as a teenager) steals the Lexx and releases Vlad, who had been trapped in a cryopod. In "Mort," the mortician has been doing Frankenstein-esque experiments attempting to bring back his sweetheart. Thanks to Kai's protoblood he succeeds, but judging by her attitude the process was glitchy. As she strangles him to death, she gasps "I kill you on the name of His Divine Shadow!"

Strapped to an Operating Table: An upright variant of this is standard for criminals sentenced to the Cluster's Protein Bank. Zev|Xev, in at least three episodes: "I Worship His Shadow" (for her love-slave transformation), "Woz" (for her unwanted de-transformation), by doctors who want to understand the Key in "Terminal," and by organ thieves in "Lyekka vs. Japan." More upright variants, but the doctors from "Terminal" lock Kai in a tank to study him, Poet Man locks Stan into something resembling a dentist's chair for purposes of insemination, and a very Mad Doctor straps Stan to a board to cut off his "dirty parts" in "Tunnels."

Judgement of the Dead

comment
Judgement of the Dead: Played With. Stanley falls off a Moth and drowns on the Planet Water, which the course of season 3 eventually reveals is the in-universe equivalent of Heaven. Its counterpart, Fire, serves as Hell. Stanley is then judged as to which of the two planets his soul should be remanded to. Unfortunately, the judge is Prince the ruler of fire, (and thus, the analog of Satan) who has his own reasons for wanting to condemn Stanley to Fire, effectively making it a Kangaroo Court. At the end of the episode, despite having tried his best in a hard universe and numerous extenuating circumstances, even Stanley himself is convinced he truly belongs of Fire. And then the whole thing gets subverted since souls on Fire and Water are effectively still alive, and Xev is ultimately able to rescue him.

True Companions: The Lexx crew (with the exception of 790) slowly becomes this over the course of Seasons 2 and 3 and is this in Season 4. The screwed-up kind, but true nonetheless. Character Development is slow, but it's obvious that by the end of the series, Xev and Stanley have gone from bickering neighbors to actual friends, and both consider Kai as such instead of the eyecandy / useful utility he starts off as. Stanley even seems genuinely broken up when the Lexx dies of old age, although he could just be fretting the inconvenience of it.

Shout-Out: Apocalexx Now to Apocalypse Now, though it's mostly In Name Only. More subtly, the chess game between Kai and Prince is copied from a game played by famous players. Super Nova has Tim Curry saying: "So, you're on the slab ..." The episode "Xevivor" contains a quick shout out to The Blair Witch Project. From "Fire and Water": When Yottskry pops into the Gigashadow's brain chamber, he says, "What fresh hell is this?" In a bar on Newfoundland, Kai interacts with a drunk priest, played by Frank Kelly.

Slut-Shaming
 Lexx / int_c972d624
comment
Slut-Shaming: Occasionally happens to Zev, although the characters who do it tend to be Jerkasses and/or villains. Most cultures, excepting those of Fire and Water, demonstrate this when the topic of sex is brought up: The landlord from one of "Lafftrack"'s shows within a show calls his female tenants "sluts," 790 (programmed for the Divine Order) insults Xev and Bunny this way, and Pa Gollean proves downright abusive when he finds Sissy in bed with Stan.

Series Continuity Error
 Lexx / int_ca95473c
comment
Series Continuity Error: In season 1 Zev says that people on her planet don't use protein banks, and bury their dead. In season 4 Xev was unfamiliar with the concept of burial, and thought it was strange. In "Supernova", Kai states he "was not aware" the Brunnen-G had unlocked the secrets of eternal life. "Brigadoom" would later reveal they had.

Reverse Polarity
 Lexx / int_cb87452d
comment
Reverse Polarity: In "Norb," the Lexx becomes infested with Mantrid drones, and the only way the crew can think of to get rid of them is by reversing the its polarity; because the drones' electronics are more delicate than the ship's, the reversal will destroy them, but only sting the Lexx. In "K-Town," a diagnostic reveals that Kai's decreased mobility results from polarity problems caused by falling from outer space onto the surface of Water. To get better, he needs to make another long fall and land on his other side. Possibly a case of Continuity Drift, given that he appeared to be in no danger from the Lexx's repolarization back in "Norb."

Screw Destiny: Kai and His Shadow try and fail. Then Stanley succeeds. The Time Prophet predicts that after the Gigashadow there is "nothing", and indeed Gigashadow/Mantrid seems well on course to destroy all of creation. Then in Brigadoom Stanley grows a spine,turns around and fights Mantrid successfully, thus saving about half of creation. And it's still there thousands of years later too.

Reign of Terror: Under the surviving Ostral-B, in season 2. According to Jihanna, anyone who lacks citizenship under their reconstructed state has no legal rights, and the police spring to obey her when she orders Xev and Kai executed, without trial, for collaboration. There's some evidence that they may represent an extremist faction, rather than the Ostral-B consensus: The defense attorney warns Kai and Xev that Jihanna plans to circumvent Stan's sentence of "a swift and painless death," and Jihanna avoids threatening Xev and Kai while the judge is watching.

Hoist by His Own Petard: Quite a few of the villains are done in like this. His Divine Shadow: Tries to grow a genetically engineered planet-killing insect to destroy human planets with, only for it to be stolen by humans who use it to defeat him. Mantrid: Turns the mass of the entire universe into his drones, saving the Lexx and crew for last...but inadvertently causes a big crunch by moving all that mass towards them at once. Giggerota: In Supernova, Gigerota flies around Brunnis in a moth she periodically takes bites out of when she needs a snack. When the moth squeaks in protest, Gigerota tells the "flying meat" to shut up. When Gigerota lands for a moment and gets out, the moth takes off and leaves her behind to die in the supernova, waving goodbye as it does so.

Sci-Fi Writers Have No Sense of Scale: The show plays fast and loose with the scale of space. The Lexx can get from the League's capital to its frontier in what seems like minutes, even when being chased by a giant insect, yet the prisoner transports to the Cluster from its member worlds require the crew to enter cryosleep. Averted in "Fire and Water." When the Lexx runs out of fuel and food, the crew members utilize cryopods, power-down mode, and, in the case of the Lexx itself, normal sleep to drift until a celestial object draws them into its orbit. Over 4,000 years pass before this happens.

comment
Eternal Recurrence: Big theme, much of it based on a universe where the Big Crunch will happen to ignite the Big Bang. Prophets don't look forward so much as remember previous cycles. This leads to an obvious example of Fridge Logic: How can the entire history of the universe by cyclical and repeat itself exactly, if people sometimes transfer back and forth between the Two Universes? That would only work if both universes were exactly the same age and cycled concurrently, but since one of them has its Big Crunch in the season 2 finale, and the main characters transfer to the other one, which is still going strong, the two universes aren't the same age.

Dystopia Justifies the Means: The Divine Order keeps the people of the Light Universe in a state of nightmarish subjugation ostensibly to defend against the evil "Dark Zone", but in reality just uses its human population to provide the vast amounts of biomass needed to maintain the Lexx and regenerate the Giga Shadow. Given who ran the League, making humanity suffer endlessly was a bonus. Prince, leader of Fire, does much the same, keeping the entire population laboring in horrible conditions to maintain a war machine against Water. Just like the Divine Order, it really exists this way because Prince is a Satanic Archetype and needs the souls of his world to suffer.

The Ditz: Stan repeatedly puts himself and the others in danger through his belief that the beautiful young women who hit on him just can't resist his charms, rather than that they're working some angle. Among other misadventures, he loses the Key twice to women who had, until they found out about the sex loophole, shown outright disgust for him. Or, more precisely, to one woman and one shapeshifter posing as a woman who had shown outright disgust for him. Through four seasons of this, he never learns. One Sci-Fi Channel advertisement even described him as the series' "idiot."

 Lexx / int_e62dfb96
comment
No Endor Holocaust: Considering that Fire and Water are close enough to share an atmosphere, Xev should expect all the debris that results when the Lexx blows up Fire to have serious consequences for Water. This never occurs to her, even while puzzling over Prince's warning that "the two planets are very close." Since Prince's ghost commandeers the Lexx to vaporize Water a few minutes later, the danger posed by debris turns out to be a moot point, but Xev couldn't have known that would happen.

Who Wants to Live Forever?
 Lexx / int_ea39d156

Who Wants to Live Forever?: The Brunnen-G are an example of this. After defeating the Insects, they build a new homeworld and put a shield around it and work out immortality. But it's only agelessness, not accident or disease proof, and thus as a culture nearly all of them are so risk averse they don't get out of bed or their bunkers for fear of a germ or a falling brick. They also live far beyond their brains' ability to remember and have problems. They can still breed though, and the younger generations have issues with what has happened.

Groin Attack: Several times. In "769," 790 gets a new body and wants a nice, big willy to go with it. Prince summons a group of servicemen whose below-decks firepower was especially impressive. The one that 790 selects has his removed and it is grafted onto 790's new body. The unfortunate serviceman is thanked for his sacrifice and given a Purple Heart. In "End of the Universe," 790 finds himself in possession of an arm, which he immediately uses to squeeze Stanley's crotch. One aspect of the transformation from human to mothbreeder is the removal of all parts not related to their duties. Apparently the Cluster was big on this trope: "The usual" three-organ fine at Stan's job consisted of an eye, a testicle, and a kidney.

Fascist, but Inefficient: The Divine Order, to a comical level. Nobody bothers to fix the cryopod that keeps freeze-drying criminal suspects en route to their trials, His Divine Shadow orders devoted minions to commit suicide for his entertainment, and Stan's superiors assess him a fine of three organs for correctly following proper transportation-security procedures. Of course, it turns out that the Divine Order is efficient at obtaining as many body parts as possible to feed to the Lexx and the Insect survivor, it just isn't efficient at anything a sane member of the public might want.

Bizarro Episode: Invoked when the crew tries to reach the center of the universe as a way of fighting Mantrid, solely on the idea that things are different at the center of the universe, and may give them some sort of advantage. All of season three can be seen as this, as it takes place in the afterlife, which is a solar system ours, actually at the center of the Dark Zone. A traditional example comes in form of A Midsummer's Nightmare.

Wizard Needs Food Badly

Wizard Needs Food Badly: The Lexx is a Living Ship, so it needs to feed. It would usually eat large inhabited chunks of planets to satisfy its hunger. Since the Lexx provided food for the crew, if Lexx didn't eat nobody ate. Sometimes the search for food would be the plot of an entire episode. Kai, once he was turned into an assassin by the Divine Order, needed proto-blood to survive. Season 1 had an ongoing subplot of trying to locate a supply for him.

Human Aliens: The Brunnen-G in particular, but technically any character not native to Earth. They referred to themselves as human despite their planet of origin. However, several clearly nonhuman characters (like Lyekka and the Satellite Worms controlled by Wyst, as well as the evil spirits form the planet Fire) used human forms or were parasites that occupied human bodies. The only possible exception might be a bald, blue-skinned humanoid visible behind Xev in Episode 1.1: "I Worship His Shadow." However, given that Giggerotta was probably a modified human, this person might have been modified as well.

Attempted Rape: In "791", Stan is very nearly raped by the body of the ship's pilot (after 790 re-animates it by attaching his head - er, himself - to it, and things go very, very wrong), until Kai intervenes just in the nick of time. No fewer than three incidents of this take place in "Luvliner." First, Stan and Xev threaten to blow up a space brothel if the pimp doesn't allow them in for free. Second, when Xev's prostitute instantly decides that theirs is a true love that "cannot be hurried," she resorts to physical force (only to be foiled by attacking space pirates). Third, the assassin holding Xev hostage tries to rape her, but isn't prepared for her Cluster lizard strength or Kai's return.

Brainwashing
 Lexx / int_f95bc392
comment
Brainwashing: The psychological aspect of love-slave programming consists of two phases, the second of which involves overriding any of the person's other personality traits with an obsessive desire for their master. Zev was subjected to phase one (which accelerated her libido), but replaced herself with 790 in the "lusticon" before the second phase was performed. The Wife Bank is designed for this. "Holo-matrons" raise the girls, from infancy, with the sole purpose of turning them into obedient, sexually-satisfying wives.

comment
Actually the Entire Series was a long Running Gag almost solely based on this trope. Lexx's creators were admitted fans of Star Trek and made most of the episodes in the not so subtle gag that ALL of the supporting characters die while only the main cast survives to the next episode. Unfortunately the entire main cast only consisted of 5 characters (including Lexx itself) so the entire universe(s) and their inhabitants became expendable.
