Lexx suxx.
Ahh, I remember the good old days on #farscape where the bot would go into a fit if you mentioned the show.

Lexx was hilarious. Really cheesy and borderline appropriate, but hilarious. "The dead do not..." Kai was great.

Hehe. Well, if I had a VCR, I'd be glad to. It shouldn't be too hard to find one of those though, heh. Maybe if you supplied the tapes. Hey, when do they show the reruns of Farscape on SciFi, anyway? I can never figure it out. Wait, maybe I shouldn't be a lazy bum, and look up the times myself...heh.-jayAlynna Lis Eachann wrote:I wish! Those things are expensive! Then again, if I'm considering shelling out $200 for the full set of Trigun episodes... LOL, at least you have cable, Jay. Maybe I ought to co-opt you into taping Farscape reruns for me. And Wolf's Rain. And Inuyasha. And Star Trek. And Cowboy Bebop. And Samurai Jack...

Yeah, Lexx started as a series of movies... I think Kai and Stanley were the only characters to survive the transition. Well, there was Zev/Xev, but I never was sure what the deal was, there. Crazy show, but Nigel Bennet had a recurring guest role, and he's usually good for a few laughs as an evil villain.
LOL, you don't have a VCR, Jay? Aww man, how do you get by? Or did you get a DVD player to make up for it? Yeah, I have no idea when any of that stuff comes on SciFi or Cartoon Network andymore - other people have offered to tape stuff for me, and I'm sitting here going "I can't even afford enough tapes to make this effort worthwhile." I think I've resigned myself to the occasional Drew Carrey, Stargate and Charmed rerun on network tv. *sigh* And then there was that homework thing...

Heh...yeah, odd, eh? No VCR. Yeah, I have a DVD player to make up for it. But yeah, I've been too lazy to get a VCR. I've never felt a huge desire to record things, heh.
For some reason I think I remember recording stuff for you before for some reason or another a while back, but I can't remember what for the life of me. Stargate or Farscape? Maybe I'm just crazy. Don't mind me.
Haha, but I do still have, like, the entire X-files series on tapes. Why did I bother doing that, anyway? Haha. Good times.-jay

lexx could have been cool, but none of the episodes had any real plot or continuity, from what i saw
xev was hawt, though
and the comparison probably came from the fact that both casts were runnin around on a giant, 'living' ship

Think on that, and be dismayed

Yeah, the only resemblence between Lexx and Farscape was the "living ship," and even that is kinda sketchy, seeing as Lexx was designed to be a weapon of destruction. And looked like a, well, you know... 
Jay: Yeah, I thought you did, too, but I don't recall what. Might have been Farscape, or maybe it was just that I kept borrowing those X-Files tapes. I still remember Mrs. Ketron in History saying something about addiction... or not doing my homework or something because of those tapes. So, I guess you're to blame for my awful grades! Hah!
Wait, I think I got an A in that class. Dang.

Progressives and Eskimos, OMG! Was it Taft, really, or someone else. Hehe, guess I didn't learn that much.

Yeah, I think it was Taft. It was a thing on who was the most progressive president, TR, Taft or Wilson. And we got stuck with Taft.
I remember Mrs. Ketron looking at us like we were insane, heh.
Maybe we're the reason why she retired after that year...hehe.
And...we've totally lost everyone else here with our inside jokes. Heh.-jay

I just got done watching The Peacekeeper Wars. As good as the series, and that's pretty much all that needs to be said about it*. Best Sci-Fi TV show, though it takes half a season to get into.
(*Another thing that I'm going to say about it: A couple of things they went back on for the sake of the story working (Chiana's eyes; the slimy guy with the diagnosan from Die Me, Dichotomy); and Sikozu's new look was a little hard to adjust to.)
