Let's hope it's better than the last couple of seasons.

My memories of Red Dwarf have all faded really. All I really remember was a black guy with a rat tail hair cut and an android or something that looked human, but he was all geometrical.

I liked the early seasons most. And I never really liked Kryten, his first appearence was great, but was annoying as Wheelie after that. :-P

What really messed it up toward the end is that they tried to make too much science fiction and too little comedy.

However, there were some genius moments in the last season where you could feel they almost had the old magic back. Like Rimmer with the sexual magnetism virus and at the very end when he kicks death in the nads. :P

They had originally planned to have Ace Rimmer rescue him, but IMO the ending they chose instead was so much more like the classic stories.

This is brilliant news. I'll be looking forward to this. Glad to see somebody was finally able to pull Craigs ass off of Cori long enough to put this together.

All hail DAVE!


And See how much you remember...
You scored: 9/10

Whoah, man, cool scoring! You’re certainly no Duane Dibley. Feel free to hang with the Cat and strut your stuff anytime.

Well that quiz is annoying, even though I click on "One Hour" on question four, whenever I get to the score sheet it always defaults back to "One Minute", preventing me from getting 10/10.

I scored: 10/10

"Your Red Dwarf knowledge knows no bounds! Feeling smug at scoring maximum points? Well, welcome to Rimmer’s elite intelligence club."

I rather hang out with Lister and Cat though. (Okay I will give Rimmer credit because of his bare chested fanservice in Terriorform Yum Yum!)

Well ... two episodes in ... it's lost it's shine that's for sure.

I can count the number of times I laughed on one hand for each episode, and that's just disappointing.

Highlight so far has been the "new" Starbug. Yes, I would be lame enough to drive one of them too.

I am so far less than impressed with their current situation. Surely they could've stayed in their own universe?

All I can think is, "Why did they even bother?"
