Poll: RED DWARF

[CliffyBiro]

Just spotted the Red Dwarf Boxset on the bay for £33 with free P&P.

What SimonC means is that the Rimmer in series 8 was a resurrected human Rimmer, supposedly the same one that died in episode 1, series 1 along with the rest of the crew and would have no memory of all the events since then that hologram Rimmer had. Therefore he felt somewhat alien in that series.

Yes that's exactly what I meant, sorry for the poor explanation.

 

[IronLung420]

Thought it was pretty poor personally.

Kryten with a Wayne Mardle shirt on... brilliant

The future

Doug Naylor has stated in an interview with Dave that he would like to make another series, but that "we would have to wait and see" how good or bad the reaction to "Back to Earth" was. He also stated that he would "never make a series 9," but he does want to make a series 10. He then went on to say that "that will make a lot more sense in future". The specials establish that two series occured after series eight that focused on the events that lead up to the mini-series. [57]

Much, much better watched as a whole. 3rd part really pulled things back together, more RD styled.

 

[Gimpymoo]

I enjoyed it.

As previously said by others, the trilogy is better than any individual episode.

He also stated that he would "never make a series 9," but he does want to make a series 10.

What does that mean, I dont get it?

 

[ps3ud0]

I think he doesnt want to continue the storyline from Series 8, which is inferred by breaking the consecutive numbering of the series...

Seems lazy to me but what do I know. He dug the hole - LOL

I wonder what Rob Grant makes of it all?

Is there any other series which has done this?

 

[The Dread Pirate]

I quite liked it the only thing I thought was missing was the "Canned Laughter" without it just didn't feel like a proper episode of the Dwarf!

 

[HamZilla]

I noticed that Rimmer has lost his arrogance and self superior attitude, he was almost too nice.

 

[Jono]

So what was Cat doing with the sweet wrappers? I think I fell asleep.

They were little models of the Despair Squid.

 

[McManicMan]

well just watched 2+3 and the making and now i want the series back on TV.

It was partly homage to Blade Runner, and partly the key to them realising that they were hallucinating, giving them the choice to continue or return to reality.

My sentiments exactly.

It was ok, not the send off I was expecting really.

 

[Zensuji]

Absolutely agree the writing for him was crap. straight after I watched the last new one they showed "back to reality" on Dave and it was awesome....Much sharper writing.

 

[antijoke]

Has this been on?

 

[Shamikebab]

Has this been on?

yep was on fri,sat and sun.

 

[Meridian]

I lasted as far as the middle of episode two, and then turned off as it was annoying me too much. The problem I found was that it wasn't clever enough to be clever, wasn't funny enough to be funny, and didn't seem to know which it wanted to be. Time to stake the corpse methinks.
