Red Dwarf Return (Europe, member, tune, shows, classic)

jackhammer · 03-31-2009, 02:55 PM

I don't know if you peeps in the U.S and Europe are familiar with this show but it's a cult classic that's been off our screens for a number of years. It's back over on cable channel Dave for a 3 part special. I so hope this will work but I can't help but be skeptical. The show that gaves us 'Smeg head' and 'smoke me a kipper i'll be back for breakfast'! Thoughts?

Apparently some of it's been filmed on the Coronation Street set & they meet Craig Charles's character from it.

I downloaded every season and started watching again about a month ago!

This should be interesting...I'd tune in were it possible.

Good to know, I use to watch reruns of this when I was younger and really enjoyed it. This is one of those shows I gotta pick up on DVD. I'm glad that it's coming back.

I love red dwarf, this should be epic.

i remember going on a big kick at the end of last summer and watching the first 3 or 4 seasons in a week.

the last episodes i remember were starting to get pretty existential and metaphysical. lots of what ifs about time and alternate realities. like the time they went back to earth but everything was in reverse. or when Rimmer joined a ship full of super-intelligent holograms but could only join the crew by replacing someone from the crew, or the time he dressed up like pipi longstockings in a weird 'saw' like episode.

i don't recognize the woman in the cast so that should be indicative enough of how much i've actually seen.

the outro song still gets stuck in my head too

Red Dwarf is a beautiful thing. Now if only they would reunite The Young Ones......
