    I remember this show and Lexx very fondly from my childhood.

Thank you Mildred for Forever Knight-a-thon, and for even the mere mention of Lexx

    • @DerekPennycuff
      @DerekPennycuff 9 місяців тому +9

      Lexx was partially produced in Germany. That may have helped it get some European distribution. I think Forever Knight was strictly Canadian though. I'm in the US but had access to lots of Canadian TV via old school C band satellite.

    IIRC, La Croix is called that name because that's the name Nick knows him by. They met in France (proto-France), when Lucien was going by that name. I do not think they ever give him a different name, but he might have lived in proto-France even back when he was alive during the Roman Empire.
