Lexx Season 4

Lexx Season 4 has quietly become one of the more dependable comedies currently available on and . The 1-season run is exactly the right length for what it is doing. 144 people have weighed in on TMDB, and the verdict leans heavily positive. Watch it for Brian Downey — stay for everyone else around them. There is no real reason to keep putting it off.

Part of the current wave of titles people are actually watching, Lexx Season 4 earns its spot. Lexx Season 4 does what great comedies rarely manage — it is actually funny, consistently, across the whole run. The Lexx travels to Earth looking for food. It is located in the very center of the Dark Universe and the crew assumes that it must be a very dangerous place. The crew again meet people they knew from the Light Universe, and from Fire and Water. Brian Downey and Jeffrey Hirschfield lead a cast that brings real weight to the material. It was aired in 2001. The timing in Lexx Season 4 is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. It knows exactly what it is, and does not try to be anything else.

If you need a comedy that actually makes you laugh, Lexx Season 4 is a strong candidate. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. Short enough to finish in a weekend, substantial enough to feel satisfying. Brian Downey sets the tone, but the supporting cast is where a lot of the best moments come from. A reliable pick for any night you want quality comedy without the homework.
