None. It aired on SciFi. However, The character of Zev (Xev, after S1) Bellringer was half love-slave, and dressed the part.

Doesn't she get nekked in the DVD release.....or the Europian version? Hell, the SG-1 pilot even had full frontal nudity :twisted:

As made, there is some nudity. It's not exactly softcore porn or anything, but there's topless women in it from time to time.

In the main cast you didn't see too much more than Voyager or Enterprise showed...

Most of the sex obsession was spoken rather than shown. For instance Xev, shown above, is a housewife who is sentenced to transformation into a sex slave. She's physically altered to appear as above (mark 1), and as a result she has a highly enhanced libido and spends a lot of her time trying to have sex. Another of the crew, Stanley Tweedle, is desperate to have sex with her in turn, but he's such an unattractive loser that he's about the only person in the galaxy she doesn't want to screw. Whereas the one she does want, Kai, is a zombie assassin with no emotions (yes, literally) who therefore doesn't want her.

Oh, and there's a robot head lying around that's madly in love with her.

That's the thing I liked about Lexx; they had no fear about where they'd go. They'd do the most batshit crazy stuff, and sometimes it worked and sometimes it didn't, but at least they tried.

Oh, and I absolutely loved the Brunnen-G battle song...

There's some rather nice full backside nudity in the season 2 episode "Wake The Dead" at least.

Just finished re-watching the entire show. Taken on any given episode, people might not like it; if you watch the entire thing from start to finish, it's one of the best sci-fi shows ever made, IMO.

If you watch the series, it becomes 100 times more awesome on a personal level.

Whole show is on Hulu.

Here's the pilot movie. Enjoy. :)

BTW (Mark), there's a lot more nudity than I remembered. :wink:
