my complete, considered, unabridged and in-depth review of dave channel’s one-off red dwarf special – ‘the return to earth’, shown last night on the aforementioned channel:
“….oh dear!…”
has anyone else managed to stop cringeing yet?

Is it a bit like the Matrix sequels? Am I best just not watching it and remembering it being good?

the matrix sequels have passed me by, but if they’re anywhere near as painful to watch as this was, they must be pants.

correction:
the line in the article above:
should of course read:
last nightevery fucking night from now until the end of time, on the aforementioned channel…many thanks to my TV listings guide for pointing this error out to me.

Strange. . . . the roboty one hasn’t aged a bit. (Oh Har-de-Har!). Lets be honest tho, bro. Red Dwarf became a load of old pants long before this hideous reincarnation came along.

god yeah! – once they brought that incredibly irritating posh bird into it as kachansky mark2 [was that supposed to be 'one for the lads'?] and the plots started being written with the view to selling it to america, it became unwatchable – but, perhaps naively, i was half-expecting this to be at least a bit good. you know like, when you go to see a band from the olden days, who’ve reformed with the original line-up. it’s never quite the same, but at least your imagination fills in the gaps and reminds you how good they used to be.
this was just embarrassing.
