It would be nice if GNP commented on it! PBS is suppose to be carrying it but on select stations. Check with WLIW21, I know mine is not. August 30, 2012 at 9:44 pm #118257 Ben PaddonParticipant It took months for BtE to air in the US in any form, and it wound up on PBS. So far there’s been no murmurings about a US broadcast be it on TV or online, but I’m hoping it end ups on BBC America. August 30, 2012 at 9:54 pm #118264 JoParticipant Doug said on Twitter that it would be airing in the US not long after the UK didn’t he? August 30, 2012 at 10:01 pm #118267 JoParticipant @thejikz They'll be broadcast in US at same time. Check out PBS. — Doug Naylor (@DougRDNaylor) June 25, 2012 @thejikz They’ll be broadcast in US at same time. Check out PBS. August 30, 2012 at 10:14 pm #118268 Danny StephensonKeymaster Can someone explain how PBS works? The public run the station? They donate money to it for certain shows to air? Is that how it works? August 30, 2012 at 10:20 pm #118269 Pete Part ThreeParticipant >Is Dave going to be streaming Series X online after broadcast Is the Pope Catholic? Yes. Yes he is. This has no relevance to this though. I don’t know why I brought it up, really. August 30, 2012 at 11:08 pm #118272 BlisschickParticipant PBS stations are funded in various major cities, usually in connection with major corporations, both private and public, and major local colleges or universities. They have fund raisers twice a year to help with local costs. I think that each station is independent, and can choose to air what it wants when it wants, hence the reason why what you may see in New York may not air in Houston. I know Houston never aired BTE, and hasn’t had any RD eps. on in years, yet we get Doctor Who (usually several months behind) and Downton Abbey, among others. It irks me how they will show some things right after they air in Britian, but other things months or even years later. I’m not sure if it has to do with the powers that be or money, but I’m pretty confident that it’s not a cash issue. :/ August 30, 2012 at 11:55 pm #118273 HelloMabelParticipant > It irks me how they will show some things right after they air in Britian, but other things months or even years later. Or never. To my knowledge neither the (now defunct) LA nor the Orange County station has ever aired Blackadder, for example, but we have had such gems as “No Honestly!” Still, they’re generally the only station that carries any proper world news or educational programming. Sesame Street has always been on PBS. A quick “Red Dwarf” search on pbs.org turns up nothing. And my local station never responded to my e-mails asking them to pick it up, as I have griped here numerous times. This is somewhat shocking. To depend on viewer support but ignore viewers’ program requests is a very stupid business choice. August 31, 2012 at 12:21 am #118275 Pecospete666Participant Soap Box please! Whats the name of the park in the UK where people stand on box and rant? I think thats a great idea, Here they will arrest you for not having a permit or disturbing the peace. It has to do with the American upper classes,you don’t see any middle class or lower on the boards of directors,and they make the decisions! They call it Public TV but the public has no say in what they buy and show. Tax dollars used to fund most of it, but since the last Administration took that funding for their Holy War in the Middle East they are constantly begging for donations. Things are hard here money jobs health care are in demand. The wasted money in the Middle East could fund a new RD movie every week. I first saw RD in the early nineties on WLIW along with Dr Who and Blake 7. It made those cold winter saturdays go quickly. August 31, 2012 at 1:48 am #118276 Ben PaddonParticipant They call it Public TV but the public has no say in what they buy and show. Actually one might assume that people pledge to PBS because they like the shows being put out. Personally I wouldn’t give money to PBS if I didn’t like what they were broadcasting. Vote with your wallet, as they say. August 31, 2012 at 1:57 am #118277 Pecospete666Participant I stopped when my kids grew out of Sesame St. So whats the name of the park in the UK where people go to rant? August 31, 2012 at 2:31 am #118278 JoParticipant It’s Speakers Corner in Hyde Park. August 31, 2012 at 2:44 am #118279 Pecospete666Participant Thanks August 31, 2012 at 2:55 am #118281 JoParticipant You’re welcome! August 31, 2012 at 3:41 am #118282 KarnieParticipant My first exposure to Red Dwarf was on PBS back in the nineties, it was the only time I ever considered donating to the station. Just saw the news here: http://www.bleedingcool.com/2012/08/30/red-dwarf-x-to-air-in-the-us-at-same-time-as-in-the-uk/ Phew! Not that we’d have had to wait long for it to come out on DVD, but the sooner I get to watch em, the sooner the book gets updated. =) August 31, 2012 at 4:59 am #118284 HelloMabelParticipant I’m not phewing just yet. Not until I actually see pbs.org acknowledge the existence of RDX. August 31, 2012 at 8:06 am #118287 Danny StephensonKeymaster Apparently Leeds has a Speaker’s Corner near the Henry Moore Art Gallery. i’ve never seen this being used… August 31, 2012 at 10:11 am #118288 Ian SymesKeymaster That Bleeding Cool article is just a link to that same tweet from Doug in June. August 31, 2012 at 4:18 pm #126263 JoParticipant *waves at Bleeding Cool writer* Hello there! August 31, 2012 at 4:34 pm #126264 mickParticipant Do any of the pay streaming services have dwarf exclusively? I know they’re all on lovefilm. August 31, 2012 at 4:40 pm #126266 Danny StephensonKeymaster and Netflix. August 31, 2012 at 5:06 pm #126270 mickParticipant Ah ok not exclusive to LF then, I dare say it will be a good while after before X appears on either anyway. August 31, 2012 at 5:22 pm #126274 KarnieParticipant Dammit.. I should know better than to rely on Bleeding Cool, they always seem to be two months behind the times… Well I’m certainly not going to buy it on iTunes when I’ll be getting the blu-ray a month later. August 31, 2012 at 5:30 pm #126279 Ben PaddonParticipant Netflix US doesn’t have Red Dwarf currently, which is a bit annoying. August 31, 2012 at 5:38 pm #126281 mickParticipant There are ‘ways’ to access the UK Netflix and Lovefilm catalogues ;) August 31, 2012 at 6:12 pm #126282 Pecospete666Participant If you have apple tv you can dvr it! August 31, 2012 at 6:23 pm #126283 mickParticipant Or literally any other TV box with recording capability, or a VCR. August 31, 2012 at 6:26 pm #126284 JamesTCParticipant Or you could hold a camera up to the TV. August 31, 2012 at 6:39 pm #126285 mickParticipant Get my Super 8 out and kinescope Red Dwarf… damn I actually want to do that now! August 31, 2012 at 9:37 pm #126293 Jonathan CappsKeymaster > Get my Super 8 out I’ve never heard it ca… actually, you know what, fuck it. Too easy. August 31, 2012 at 9:51 pm #126297 mickParticipant > I’ve never heard it ca… Apparently Spielberg used the same line on Kate Capshaw. August 31, 2012 at 9:55 pm #126298 siParticipant Kate Capshaw? She’s not the scottish lass with the black hair and big glasses on Number 73, is she? August 31, 2012 at 10:10 pm #126301 mickParticipant No but I think I may have slept with whoever you’re talking about :-/ September 1, 2012 at 3:01 am #126313 JoParticipant Another article referencing the same tweet, although this one implies that it’s new rather than being posted in June. http://www.giantfreakinrobot.com/scifi/red-dwarf-air-time-uk.html September 6, 2012 at 4:13 pm #126530 Pecospete666Participant Will be on VOD http://www.worldscreen.com/articles/display/2012-9-6-uktv-vod September 6, 2012 at 5:33 pm #126532 thomasaevansParticipant Here too: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/media/news/a404221/dave-yesterday-and-watch-to-get-on-demand-players.html Author Replies Viewing 36 replies - 1 through 36 (of 36 total) Scroll to top • Scroll to Recent Forum Posts You must be logged in to reply to this topic.
