Genre-al Investigation News Posted by Ian Symes on 30th July 2005, 18:24 My university course really is super. Observation Dome get access to the equipment needed to make a competition-winning film, I get to write about Red Dwarf all the time, and G&T gains articles from it. Here’s another – Red Dwarf and Genre. Written and submitted a couple of months ago, it was given a mark that translates to 2:1. And yes, it is sheer coincidence that the message of an article we published a few days ago is directly contradicted at one point. Oops.
Very good. Comparing VII to Titanic is quite apt – a sinking ship… Actually, VII and VIII seem to make Dwarf a lot more interesting to write about.
>Interestingly, despite the balance of the show shifted from comedy towards sci-fi after 1988, the opening theme tune and title sequence changed in a way that suggested the opposite. I’ve never, ever thought about it that way before. Very good point, and very true.
Why did you split the University Challenge dates (“[1962-1987, 1994-present day]” rather than [1962-present day]), yet not the Doctor Who dates (“[1963-present day]” rather than [1963-1989, 1996, 2005-present day]). Odd inconsistancy.
