The problem was they were trying to hard to make it appeal to a wide audience after series 6 and it went s
t (I believe to get the backing for a film).
Love the first 6 series just wish 7 and 8 hadn't been such a mess.
Your missing the big picture about seasons 7 and 8![](/inc/images/censored.gif)

Could be good, could be arse. I hope it's closer to the first six series in style. But how are they going to get out of the end of the season 8? Looked like curtains...
I think Rimmer kicking death in the nuts was a brilliant ending..but them im biased as i prefere the later seasons

I love Red dwarf but the quality did deteriorate in series 7, the change to film stock and convenient plot changes just ruined it, although there was the odd good bit.
I'll definitely be checking this out, but not holding my breath that it will work. I think it's been too long now, they wasted too much time trying to get the movie made, when they should have just made another series.

I like season 1 for the nostalgic effect, 4 and 5 had some great shows and 6 stands at the top. I didn't like 7 but strangely liked 8.
I watched the film JFK last night and I know its a serious turning point in history etc but I just can't stop thinking as I was watching this serious film that Kryten would appear at some point on the grassy knoll and shout "duck"

I hope it works, but I suspect it'll tank - I mean, Blackadder worked after X years didn't it (!)
Epic fail potential is high, a lot will depend on how well it's written. Blackadder, the time travel one, just wasn't funny. Only Fools, where they revived it after they'd become millionaires, also wasn't funny and had too many stupid plot conveniences ("oh no the stock market is crashing, we've lost all our money" ![banghead](/inc/images/banghead.gif)
What's Chris Barrie been up to lately? I know he had a few supporting slots in films (like TombRaider for example), but I've not really been much of a TV person the last 5 years or so.
(Although I did pass him in Edinburgh airport a couple of years ago and managed to just gawp a bit and completely not bother him for an autograph
)
As for the show itself - a small miniseries might work, like The Peacekeeper Wars did for Farscape, but I don't think it can sustain a relaunch of the series.
