Anyone else watch Lexx? Did anyone else see it tonight? I just about wet my pants…

Oh damn! I didn’t see it. I sometimes watch it after “Farscape”. It is the worst (deliberately BAD) science fiction show I’ve ever seen. What a hoot.

In short, so bad it’s cool.

I have the first pilot eps on tape. The music and effects of the _Lexx_ cruising over the lights of the insect world still send me.

It’s like heroin. The first time you watch it, it’s so horrible it makes you sick. But then you can’t help but keep watching it, and it eventually _ruins your life_!

I finally managed to kick the habit, but not until after dressing up as Zev (season one) for a costume party.

Mmmm… Kai all hurt and helpless…

Er… excuse me. I think I need a shower now.

I think my neighbors are scared of me now after the cheering and laughter erupting from my apartment when Kai and Stan kissed. But, as I pointed out to my roommates, “DAMN Michael McManus is a good actor!”

I gotta tape that episode and freeze frame that shot … it was like watching Lister and Rimmer kiss. 🙂

**OpalCat** , I hope you’re pleased with yourself, because the above sentence has seriously interfered with my recovery process.

I’m feeling that Jones again, and it’s all your fault!
