Not sure if there's many Red Dwarf fans on here so maybe zero f*cks will be given.
But new series is coming September 22nd

I have not seen the last few seasons, but I will get back to rewatching the entire series from the beginning one of these years.

I had started to rewatch the early seasons back in the late 90's since they were on videotape (!!!), and I remember them holding up better than I had anticipated.

I learned what smegma was BITD courtesy Red Dwarf.

It's worse every season after the first couple, but I'll watch whatever they make.

I disagree in part. I & II are very different to the rest. They create the sense of isolation very well. I do enjoy them but V & VI are comedy masterpieces.
VII is toilet.
While we're on the revival train I'm excited for new das boot mini series coming.

I watched Das Boot as a kid. I still remember how stressed out I felt.

Then I bought Das DVD... And it was just as stressful.

Das truth.

If you thought the movie was stressful wait until you watch it as a 100 hour TV series.

I don't know why anyone would "reboat" Das Boot, or why it would be considered franchise material in the first place, honestly. I have nothing against the movie, but I never wanted massively more Das Boot.

I have the almost 5hr version on DVD and the movie on blu ray. I've watched it at least 20 times. My first encounter was the full version as a mini series on BBC 2.

I love me some Red Dwarf, though I'm sure I'll have a good long wait 'til it's available (legally) in the US.

I definitely disagree about 'em getting progressively worse, though, seeing as the last series was far better than the couple before it.

Necro, I agree. The season where they broke the 4th wall was terrible, and only about 4 episodes long. When they went and visited the head of the Fan Club I was struggling to get through the season. As a hardcaw fan, I admit, it was f*cking terrible. The Kachansky plotline was pretty weak, but it explain Listers psychosis a bit. The season after (7? 8?) redeemed the series for me, and I'm following all of the actors on twitter now.

The DVDs can be had for less than £1 per series second hand. I could collect them up and send them over in exchange for a shitty game or something if you wanted.
