It's the last of the four 2-hour telemovies that formed Lexx season 1;
the
show didn't move to the usual 1-hour format till season 2. In order,
they
are: "I Worship His Shadow", "Supernova", "Eating Pattern" and
"Gigashadow". Here in the UK they were released on Vid as one 2-hour
episode per tape; I think they're now out on DVD as well. Note that some
TV
channels may split each episode down to two 1-hour shows rather than
screening it all at once.
For those who haven't seen any, Lexx is gothic, sick, twisted, gory and
thoroughly perverted. I love it.  ;-)
