Lexx 2 – Super Nova

Decorative Vegetable

This week Kiyan drops millions of Lexx puns and I hate it.

While watching this all I could think of was that I would love it if a supernova just swallowed me whole. Like if I could just be absolved of my responsibility of watching this movie for this podcast. And the best way to do that is to just be absorbed by a black hole. It’s Super Nova, written by Pual Donovon, Jeffery Hirschfield and Lex Gigeroff and released on April 25, 1997.
