Re: Red Dwarf Series X Discussion Thread
 

I'm looking forward to it, though I live in France and don't have Dave so I'll have to wait until the episodes are online. I'm not expecting it to be as good as the earlier series, but I love the characters so much I don't really care, I just want to see them back together.

Below I'll post a link to The LlewBlog, Robert Llewellyn's blog with news and updates about what's happening with the latest series. It's got on-set pictures and the latest post lists the episode titles.

Well the first 5 series were excellent, and then up to about season 8 it was good, but I remember 9 and 10 were pretty bad.

I also thought the special they did a couple of years ago wasn't that good.

Because of this, I'm not really excited. I am a huge fan of the show due to the early series, but can't get excited.

I will watch though, and I hope it's great. I bet it will have laughs a-plenty, and for the nostalgia kick alone I bet it will be worth it.

I haven't liked it since season 6 but I'll still watch it and :mark::mark::mark::mark::mark:

I think it will be crap

One of my favorite shows. Can't get enough of Rimmer and Cat!

Just watched it, thought it was great. Back to the greatness of S1-7. I liked 8 but it was different and not in the best way. That 3 part S9 thing can go to hell and burn.

It was pretty good. Nothing spectacular, but very few English sitcoms ever are. Enjoyable. Definitely worth doing. Looking forward to the next episode.

Wasn't as bad as I was expecting but certainly nowhere near as good as the 'original' series', picked up in the later 20 mins or so I thought, its sad to see just how much they've aged.

Also I really don't think it helps the show with it being in HD, now I know that sounds a bit odd but part of the quaint-ness of the show previously was the cheap/budget sets (but they suited the style of the show) and I don't know it felt like it had lost some of it's charm with how 'smooth' it looked, maybe its just me.

I agree that i liked the quaint rustic look of the older series. But times change. Was indeed an enjoyable episode and it actually made me laugh which is always a good sign. Moose-Gate was hilarious as well as Cat just wandering past the simulant. They're jokes that you know are coming yet are still funny.
