That snuck up on me. I know the show was still in limbo, but I never expected them to actually continue with it in any form. Colour me excited.

Best news I've heard all day.

I suppose this means we're never getting the movie. This must tie up the whole series.

 

I liked the way the last series ended though.

I'm still on Season 8 of Dwarf (don't know if it goes further...just what I've gotten on NetFlix Instant Queue) and it seems like seasons 7 and 8 were the "jump the shark" seasons. Everything up to that point flowed nicely and seemed to fit in with things prior but 7 and 8 just seem like a lot of ideas just being thrown at a wall and whatever sticks, they produced and filmed.

 

The whole re-creation of Red Dwarf is mind-numbing..

 

OH! Can anyone explain why for a few seasons there was a female Holly? I can only assume she carried over from the parrallel Dwarf that they came across..

Neat. I kind of fell out of the series so I've only seen the first couple of seasons/series, though I did watch a few later ones on Netflix and really liked the Ourobouros episode.

Well as a huge fan sorry to say this new show(s) just isn't doing it for me. Too much CGI and not enough jokes. Still any new RD is welcome, even lesser shows like this.
