I agree, showing Gunmen of the Apocalypse after showed how funny it used to be.
Reminds me of when they brought back Only fools and Horses for a couple of extra episodes. Really wasnt that funny.
They should just carry on showing the best ones on repeat!
Still holding out hope for tonight and tomorrow.

That was...dire XD On the plus side it makes series 8 look great
The mental gymnastics a landlord will employ to justify immoral actions is clinically fascinating. Just because something is legal doesn't make
it moral.

I used to be a big Red Dwarf fan. I particularly liked the episode where they had to find out which was the real Lister, and they gave one of them a
guitar to play, and he played it really well, and the others shot him. Turned out he was reading Lister's mind, and Lister thought he was a
really good player. Sophisticated humour in amongst the slapstick.
Managed 10 minutes of the new series

I thought the second episode was better than the first, not great, just not really bad. Liked the Blade Runner rip off and Lister on the bus scenes.

It was virtually inevitable that it was going to be crap compared to the original series, I can hardly remember a comeback series that
wasn't.
It's been 10 years since the last of the original series, and even the last of those weren't a patch on the earlier series. IMO the
acting so far in Back To Earth has been pretty wooden, the crew simply don't have the spark that they used to have, which is understandable I
guess. Plot seems to be a bit ropey as well...time will tell.
Out of interest how many RD fans watched Robert Llewellyn's IT2I2?

I didn't like the bus trip scene it sort of detracted from the whole space idea.
I think the acting is okay except Rimmer. The Cat kept it up and went to Hollywood, starred in one of the Blade films. Lister stars 3 or 4 times a
week in Corrie (!) and Cryton, well he's never really broke his role has he

I liked it, but it did raise some questions:
Who the hell is that girl?
How can Red Dwarf sustain 2 holograms?
Where did the crew go?

Damn it, my Sky+ decided to go belly up yesterday. Is it worth finding the episode online somewhere? If it's much like the first episode,
I'm not sure I'll bother. There's just too many holes in the story, and what story there is is slow and doesn't add up.

Some sad bugger is typing the synopsis into wikipedia day by day. Missed last night's episode, have it recorded, but it really doesn't
look too exciting.
