Currently, I do not know if I'll be able to complete the guide for the third season.
The 1st season airdates listed are from when the series was aired as a mini-series called Lexx: The Dark Zone Stories on the Canadian TV channel - Citytv. This series was then shown in the US on The Movie Channel from July to August 1997.
The 2nd season airdates come from when the television series aired on the Canadian TV channel - Space The Imagination Station. These episodes were later aired in the US for the first time on the US Sci-Fi Channel from March 2000 to August 2000 in a haphazard order.
The 3rd season airdates are from when this new series of episodes ran on the UK Sci-Fi Channel for the first time. These episodes are being shown on the US Sci-Fi channel in the months following the broadcast of the 2nd season episodes on this channel.
