《Lexx》的第一季是作为迷你短剧上映的，原名叫《Lexx：The Dark Zone Stories》（Lexx：黑暗地带的故事），首播于加拿大城市电视台。不久，美国有线电影频道购买了播映权，并于1997年7月－8月播出。第一季大受好评之后，不久就拍摄了第二季。
可惜性感女主角Eva Habermann在第二季第二集就被换掉，很是遗憾。

影片根据哈罗德·费雷德里克Harold Frederic (1856-1898)的小说改编，故事来自于真实的历史。作者曾经在童年的时期经历过美国的内战。1862年美国纽约州的秋天，有一名叫阿波内尔·比奇的养牛的农民，他内心固执、坚持自己的信念，因而坚决地反对内战而与自己的邻居以及政 府决裂。

一个胆小怕事的安全官、一个不死的刺客、一个超级性感的女人和一个疯狂爱着这个女人的机器头组成了星际战舰Lexx号的船员，Lexx在两个宇宙（白宇宙和黑宇宙）中都堪称最顶级的强力武器。

全剧一共四季，前3季由加拿大、德国共同拍摄，第4季由美国投资拍摄，主要在美国收费有线电视网播放（看看去年电视剧《罗马》的品质就知道收费电视剧水平不会差）。播出时间为1996－2002年，共包括4集电视电影/迷你剧(即第一季，90分钟/集)和57集电视剧。

从播出过程来看，这部电视剧可谓历尽磨难。起初排定播出时间表的时候，《Lexx》的第一季是作为迷你短剧上映的，原名叫《Lexx：The Dark Zone Stories》（Lexx：黑暗地带的故事），首播于加拿大城市电视台。不久，美国有线电影频道购买了播映权，并于1997年7月－8月播出。第一季大受好评之后，不久就拍摄了第二季。加拿大最有名的幻想节目电视台：Space频道买下了全季的播映权，但随后又卖给美国有线科幻频道（US SCI-FI）。SCI-FI并没有马上播出，而是在两年后的2000年才随机播出了全季电视剧。第三季的首播是2000年，但首先购买播映权的却是英国的有线科幻频道（UK SCI-FI） 。US SCI-FI见该剧反响不错，随即决定播出第三季，播出时间是在第二季播完后的几个月。第四季终于是被US SCI-FI投资拍摄并首播的。 1998－1999年，Lexx两度被提名为“双子星奖”的“最佳视觉奖”，1998年还被提名为“最佳原创音乐奖”、“最佳创意”和“最佳艺术奖”。

本剧剧情由加拿大作家/导演Paul Donovan于80年代构思创作。《LEXX》是一部奇异的电视剧，故事围绕一个不死的刺客、一个倒霉的失败者、一个半人半蜥蜴（人形外表，丛林蜥蜴的力量和攀爬技能）的美丽女人和一个渴望得到这个女人爱情却只剩下光秃秃脑袋的机器头展开。他们偷了一艘具有意识思维和感觉力的战舰—LEXX号，克服了一个又一个艰难险阻，却还是在黑暗邪恶的宇宙中惹来了更多的麻烦。他们刚刚逃出水与火的战场与“他影”帝国黑暗王子的魔掌，又遇到一个前所未有的巨大挑战：他们不得不面对在宇宙中还处于原始低等水平的社会—地球。故事看起来和《红矮星号》、《第五元素》很像，但却充满了独特个性（个人认为和《遥远星际》(Farscape)也有点像）。
