I was surprised this morning to accidentally run into this little article, mostly because I wasn’t doing a search on anything Lexxy at all, but was even MORE surprised that NO ONE had commented and there were only 2 facebook likes. I went ahead and pinned it, commented, and liked, but dang, Lexx fans, where are you? We used to be so hard core, we used to fight tooth and nail to get this stuff out the fastest, and this is already 3 months old and it looks like not a soul cares. While I have constant surveillance on this blog from diehard fans and webmasters all over the world, this guy got nothing, so what say we help him out, make it WORTH HIS WHILE to actually write about your fave cult scifi show ever, show some actual internet support (yeah, I know, this coming from the person who tore down one of the biggest fansites on the North American continent), and give crap back to the critics *outside* of your message board comfort zones. Click to go, like the old days. And if you need to comment here, I promise I won’t delete, say whatever you want, I’m just staying out of it.

:edit: 8/20/12 Someone just asked me about the Lexx video game, is there one, etc. I remember I used to have a link to this one.
Lexx Video Game
:edit: 8/25/12 I honestly never expected this much traffic on a single post in only a week’s time (817 views). I can only imagine what would happen if I were to rebuild my old Lexx stuff. Since sitemeter isn’t catching this particular page-specific landing point, I’m the only one that can see my internal xanga tracker, so I just wanna give a shout out to Russia, Germany, Bulgaria, UK, Thailand, Malaysia, Ukraine, Indonesia, Philipines, Netherlands, Sweden, Egypt, Belarus, New Zealand, and what the heck, a couple of you in the U.S., and that’s just in the last 24 hours. In the last 48 we can add France, Austria, Columbia, and Brazil. Earlier this week I saw Kuwait, Singapore, Lithuania, Hungary, Greece, Ontario, Puerto Rico, Vietnam, Switzerland, Italy, Bandladesh, Venezuala, Argentina, and Finland, all coming specifically to this Lexx titled post. If there is any doubt in anyone’s mind that Lexx is dead, you couldn’t prove it by this response. The U.S. NEVER airs it, but we still have our avid fans here, too. So big wave to all of you, thanx for stopping by, might get screen snips of all those hits for posterity. Love those fans!!!!
p.s. I’m wildly curious how some of you are getting into ‘Events’, since xanga dismantled that years ago and the only way I can get into it myself is through following your footprints, and once I’m there I can’t edit or change a thing there. I don’t think it’s supposed to show up at all.
I’m way out of the loop now, but I guess it’s still alive at Hal-Con 2012, and thanx to sites like http://hellexx.narod.ru/transcript_interview_with_MM.html and http://www.lexxdomain.com/links.php, I’ll keep seeing some of you drop by. Keep Lexxing.
:edit: 9-6-12 > *wow* this stirred memories, dug out my Lexx cds yesterday, and it looks now like I’ll be doing a marathon of all 4 seasons as time permits over the coming year. If you wanna follow along and/or put in your own two cents, click this little button to go to my Lexx navigation page.
Ok, this is 9-9-14 again. The reason I pulled THIS post over (seriously considered not bothering) is because of this discussion in the group on facebook.
For those of you still just discovering my Lexx blogs- I've been blogging Lexx since 2005. Most of it disappeared when I got real sick. I'm back. I'm not here to follow actors around or hang out yapping about how I love Michael McManus or whatevs, I'm here to promote LEXX. Every little bit fans get excited and stir around a little bit talking about what if there were a spinoff, yap yap, but it's done in private groups and forums and the world doesn't see this going on. Lexx became so scarce for awhile that you couldn't find it anywhere. Over the last couple years it's out on Target shelves (something brand new in Lexx distribution history) and streamed for awhile on Netflix and Hulu, might still be able to stream it on Amazon. Was this a last gasp squeezing a few more nickels and dimes out of the fans? Or does it signify portent? Lexx was practically 'dead' in the U.S., now a U.S. company controls worldwide distribution. What does this mean??? Is it coming back? Might there be more?
The fans are stirring around the world. They are waking up to Lexx being 'back'. It's slow going because Lexx has no representation in the social medias besides FANS. No one else out there is promoting Lexx as merchandise. If it weren't for Lexx showing up in U.S. streaming for a year, fans wouldn't have noticed at all that Lexx is being merched again. I searched the webs for fans talking about it- no one was.
Well, I see fans starting to talk about it now. They're really hard to find because they're mostly in closed groups and private forums, but that doesn't mean there isn't interest. THERE IS INTEREST IN A LEXX SPINOFF, THERE IS INTEREST IN A LEXX REMAKE, THERE IS INTEREST IN LEXX MERCHANDISE.
Can anybody hear us?
