Red Dwarf - Page 5

Have they explained how they managed to survive the situation at the end of s8 or are they waiting to do so for a bit o drama?

I'm not sure why they're ducking out of the way of explaining certain things, like when rimmer asked why there were two holograms she changed the subject. I'm hoping this is because it's something they want to explain in later episodes and not them poking fun of the fact they couldn't be bothered coming up with explanations to these things.

If i'm honest the last time i laughed at Red Dwarf was ocassionally in season 7, i'm only continuing to watch it still out of habit and a curiosity as to how it will all end. Saw some of the classic episodes straight after this and it made the drop in quality more apparent. I laughed so hard at 'hollow virus' i nearly injured myself, yet barely a grin in this new ep.

*Fingers crossed the next two are better*

I generally agree with what has been said about the laughter/silences. But I will definately give the next two a chance.

I didn't have high expectations, and I'm glad. I wouldn't say it was rubbish, but it wasn't exactly hilarious.

I thought the point of that was she was waiting to tell him that he was being decommissioned (well, blown up

) in the next 24 hours and didn't want to spill the beans at that point?

I just watched both eps backwards since I missed the first yesterday. I couldn't really get into the first eps but the second was brilliant! Starbug on Corrie Street made me lol

Ok, I saw the first episode and was getting into it again, but then it came rushing to the end of the episode and I felt like it hit a frikken brick wall!!

Now you guys are talking about already seeing the second epi? Where's the torrent for it?
