Summary

Lexx's first season, which debuted in Canada on April 18, 1997, consisted of four two-hour TV movies (sometimes screened as eight one-hour episodes), sometimes known as Tales from a Parallel Universe. Some episode guides do not include the two-hour movies as part of the series, listing the subsequent seasons as the first through third.

The second season consisted of twenty 48-minute episodes. The story arc involved an evil scientist called Mantrid, whose nefarious plan is to convert the population of the entire universe into one-armed Mantrid drones. Mantrid causes a Big Crunch that sends the Lexx through a singularity to an alternate "dark" universe (the Dark Zone).

The third season of 13 episodes sees the Lexx trapped in orbit around the warring planets Fire and Water. The crew encounters an evil and enigmatic yet cheerful being known as Prince, who may be the Devil. The two planets orbit each otherclosely, sharing a tunnel of atmosphere, enabling the inhabitants of Fire to attack Water at whim. Prince, who can reincarnate whenever it suits him, rules Fire. Water appears to have no opposing ruler, consisting of a small population of hedonists who live on floating islands.

In the fourth and final season (24 episodes), the Lexx arrives at Earth in the year 2000, only to find that Prince (now named Isambard Prince, and somehow head of the ATF) and several other old adversaries have arrived there, too. Between them, Prince and the Lexx manage to demolish large chunks of the Earth&ndash. The climactic final episode was shown on April 26, 2002.

Seasons 1 to 3 of Lexx were released on VHS and Region 2 DVD in the UK by Contender Limited but are no longer available. The Season 3 DVDs were initially exclusive to the MVC Entertainment chain of stores. Momentum Pictures, a subsidiary of Alliance Atlantis, obtained the rights to Season 4, but have not released any DVDs.
