Personally, I don’t think Red Dwarf got funny until the second season. I also think the next three episodes of the new show aren’t that bad…

Yes, I’ll watch the 3rd episode. Loved Red Dwarf and this is a tiny bit like it.

Wow, Blatant Red Dwarf rip-off, but without the laughs. There WERE accents, though. American ones…

To Error404

1) genera? I assume you meant genre? Also, it’s fine to like a lot of Sci-Fi, but a lot of it is bad too, so it pays to be nitpicky, if you’re fine with spending time and money on the mediocre, then feel free.

2) Your second point makes even less sense than your first. You begin by saying that the majority of great sci-fi shows are reinterpretations of Lost in Space, and then you go on to say that they’re all crap. So which is it?

3) No.

- Message ends.

To Space Guys in Space,

I will not watch this, it’s not funny.

It was pretty good, come on there’s only 2 guys and one small pod. Won’t be much better untill they get another someone or something else. They will have to play off each other. The clone needs a upgrade though. He’s just annoying and too much more of him, he’s going out the airlock. Love the Farmburg aka Farmville quotes. If that game has survived to the far distance future, were all doomed ! I like to see more episodes. If anyone has seen the Nuka-Break episodes, you will find they get better over time.

Load of crap which hasn’t even the virtue of any originality — that’s the danger of parody, when it is anything less than perfectly done. And what do you mean, without the accents? They all sound foreign to me. Now, smeg off.

What do you mean “without the accent”? The first voice I heard had an American accent!

Kindly delete my above comment as there was a clear numerical error in my 2nd sentence. …Or leave it as fodder for the negative-Nancys to feast upon. It might prove amusing.

Hell yeah! Gimme more!!! This is pure fun!

…as for any detractor’s comments, let me just point out three things:

1) We Science Fiction fans have been so critically nit-picky about the
genera that we’ve made the studios hesitant to offer us more than
regurgitated pablum. Hence why our favored genera has become so weakly
represented in all forms of available media. Even the (once) Sci-Fi
channel (currently pronounced Siffey) now panders to the lowest common
denominator in it’s effort to survive. Frankly, we need to STFU &
let creativity resume. Remember the old standard “If you can’t say something nice, don’t say nothin’ at all.” Face it, ST: TOS wasn’t saved & brought back for a 3rd season by a buncha negative-Nancys! It was brought back by POPULAR DEMAND! And that show, much as I love it (READ: paid the hefty price to own it on blu-ray
so, shut up!) is rife with cheese!!! All Sci-Fi has it’s flaws. But if
we don’t learn to be more all-embracing of the genera, the studios will
ignore our interests & we’ll all be stuck watching Seinfeld/CSI
clones or worse.
2) A high percentage of great Science Fiction shows are just a
reinterpretation of Lost In Space & that show was total crap! But it
was fun crap & that’s the point. Voyager: Crap. Red Dwarf:
Low-Budget crap. Farscape: Utterly Derivative crap (& again, I paid
top dollar to own all three series so, Shut-Up!). I could go on with
this list but I’d rather get to the point. All of the shows which are,
at some level, arguably Lost In Space reboots & thus “crap” are
still unarguably better than the pathetic cop/medical drama &
predictable sit-coms which get shoved down our gullets every year with
unending ferocity.
3) Quit over-thinking it, STFU & just enjoy! …Apply that to life & we’ll all be happier.

“…without the accents.” – depends what part of the world you come from. To me it certainly has accents!

It even has the ‘Holy’s intro sequence’. I wouldn’t mind so much, but i didn’t laugh once.

the first one was a bit lame, but the second one was OK, and I would watch a third, but Not only Red Dwarf, but Wierd Science, Star wars, Halo, And just about every decent sci fiIdea I’ve seen will eventually show up, but then that is an Omage, and that is OK!
