# Oh what the heck - Cockblister or not, I need to get this out of my head!

Clicketybig [118k]

Because it was such a disappointment. Had some really funny bits but on the whole derivative and terrible - proof that Naylor without Grant is just a waste of time...

# you knew it was going to be shite, so why did you watch it
It died after series 4, all comedy programs do

It died and they should have left it dead, just because Chris Barry's carrier is in the shitter, does not mean you have to make a new one

# i hate Curb Your Enthusiasm
though I appear to be alone in this. It's fucking awful and Larry David can't act for fucking toffee. More importantly, it's just not funny which kind of defeats the point.

Can you believe they've got the balls to have this out on DVD for £13...?

If you've seen Bladerunner, The LOG film, the Back To Reality episode and then forgotten all the good bits - you wouldn't even need to bother!

# i reckon what they needed was less action/drama
red dwarf works best as a low-budget cheesy sitcom full of one-liners and canned laughter and terrible special effects

# Yeah but what would be the point of doing it similar to the old series?
It's already been done, it would have made more sense to do something original (though a lot less mawkish and sentimental) then after all the surreal metareferencing bits they have a big gun battle until everyone is left silent and possibly dead or not dead.

Like Blake 7

# It's definitely what I'm going to do anyway.
I'm going to write a really camp and shit American TV comedy like Will & Grace for six years purely so on the very final episode they are all pulled into Hell and made to sit judgement for their time on earth and end up carving chunks out of each other in a barbaric cannibal forced orgy at the end.

It had several funny bits but seemed to have a lot of dead time between the laughs.

Plus - how do you fit 4 grown men into a smart car that has 2 seats?
