I think this was a show, perhaps on HBO, or the like. All I can remember was that it was a sort of "cult show" feel to it. The scene I remember was as follows; a guy who was kind of arrogant and womanizing, was kept alive on a gurney by machines. I think it was recompense for how he'd been. He doesn't discover it until they wheel him into an elevator of sorts, and he sees his reflection on the ceiling. His head, or torso, hooked up to pumps and wires and tubes. Then of course, he screams in terror, getting what he deserves, I guess. Anyone know what that is?
Another scene, and this could be a different show, but I always remember them together, is this; a long haired alien type guy gets caught and then the scientists split him down the middle (head to nose to belly button), and they show the aftermath of this torture. Some woman cries for him I think. Like I said, it wasn't very dramatic, but more of a cult/shock feel of a show. Kind of campy.

Sounds like Scenes from Lexx.

Lexx (TV Series 1997-2002) - IMDb (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0178149/)

In season 1, episode 2 (Supernova), Kai, the one with the long hair, gets split in half.

The show used to be on Sci-Fi years ago but is now available as an instant watch on Netflix.
