Red Dwarf : Series 11 not a patch on Series X!

Series 11 not a patch on Series X!

Some okay stories I guess. Twentica was the biggest letdown I can remember from any TV show in a while, it was the episode I was looking forward to the most and was total crud.

Overall it was okay but nothing anywhere near the brilliance of Lemons... or The Beginning.....

Sorry =/

Everyone, not least the cast and Doug Naylor, go on about Lemons and I disliked the episode. I could predict the punchline that he was really Jesus anyway a mile off- it's just in my psyche from Monty Python's Life of Brian. I always preferred Holy Grail. I've just never found religious figures funny in comedy.

Twentica might not have had loads of knock out jokes but it was stylistically great, reminiscent of Back to Reality meets Gunmen of the Apocalypse - and you need a strong stylish episode as your opener.

I'm actually coming to appreciate series 8 more and more.

Series 11 is pretty much what I asked for though - a return of 'monster/villain of the week' but it feels like it's going through the motions, that the crew are becoming characters. Hopefully, series 12, with the reintroduction of Hattie Hayridge as Holly, will see less of a formula and only 1 or 2 villains at most now that we've got that out of our system.

Series 11 had its flaws but it was a massive step up compared to the entirely forgettable series 10.

Whoa! Okay! you've... convinced me there! well done!

Re: Series 11 not a patch on Series X!

I agree, much better than 10. some real laugh out loud moments in just the first 3 that I have seen

Re: Series 11 not a patch on Series X!

I like every single episode in series 11

But yeah, series 10 was definitely better


Take them to the security kitchen!

Re: Series 11 not a patch on Series X!

I love series 11 I thought it was great and very funny. I really liked the episode when Kryten had a mid-life crisis. I really love series 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10 and 11. Series 1 and back to earth are just ok.
