Title: Red Dwarf
Post by: Philippa on October 04, 2012, 02:57:14 PM: Hooray, a thread about Red Dwarf. Anyone watching Series X tonight on Dave or just enjoying all the old episodes?

Also, does anyone else miss Rimmer not being able to touch things? I thought it was clever how they always worked around that in the earlier series, how he had to contend with the skutters doing it for him.

Post by: Incredirobotwars on October 09, 2012, 02:27:04 PM: Indeed, moar skutters. However, I did like the more relaxed feel in this one. Also, every single actor on there is definitely 'getting on' to the extreme. I mean, come on...Danny John Jules is beginning to look like Tommy Lee Jones did ten years ago.
