So what would your preferred order be? I’d tentatively say: 1. Give & Take 2. Officer Rimmer 3. Krysis 4. Samsara 5. Can of Worms 6. Twentica October 24, 2016 at 6:58 pm #217481 (deleted)Member Samsara is the most ‘Episode 5’ episode of anything ever made. That’s not even necessarily a criticism of it. ‘Second to last’ is a genre unto itself. October 24, 2016 at 7:25 pm #217482 RamesesNiblickTheThirdMember 1. Give & Take 2. Officer Rimmer 3. Samsara 4. Can of Worms 5. Krysis 6. Twentica October 24, 2016 at 9:01 pm #217484 Pete Part ThreeParticipant 1. Give & Take 2. Krysis 3. Officer Rimmer 4. Top Gear 5. Give & Take (rpt) 6. Twentica October 24, 2016 at 9:10 pm #217485 International DebrisParticipant I’d include a repeat run of Dimension Jump in there somewhere just for full-on VI off-air tape nostalgia. October 24, 2016 at 9:37 pm #217486 Chris StokesParticipant 1. Samsara 2. Krysis 3. Give & Take 4. Can of Worms 5. Officer Rimmer 6. Twentica October 24, 2016 at 10:34 pm #217487 PalfMember Give and Take as the opener and Twentica as the finale are no-brainers for me. The rest can go anywhere although I’m probably more inclined to keep Samsara in the episode 2 slot to get it out of the way quicker. October 25, 2016 at 3:22 pm #217500 Kris CarterParticipant Give and Take Krysis Samsara Officer Rimmer Can of Worms Twentica I think my running order would go like that. October 25, 2016 at 9:59 pm #217514 PalfMember Of course if I could bend time and put out a series X based on the best of the Dave era eps then it would look like: 1. Trojan 2. Give and Take (removing reference to Rimmers father) 3. Twentica 4. Officer Rimmer 5. Lemons 6. The Beginning That’s a damn strong series in my humble non-valued likely wrong opinion. October 26, 2016 at 2:11 pm #217528 Renegade RobParticipant My personal preference: 1. Give and Take 2. Krysis 3. Can of Worms 4. Officer Rimmer 5. Samsara 6. Twentica Arrangement closest in feel to the classic series: 1. Can of Worms (Camille + Psirens) 2. Samsara (Future Echoes + Marooned + DNA) 3. Twentica (Gunmen) 4. Give and Take (Stasis Leak + Bodyswap + Quarantine) 5. Krysis (Queeg + Timeslides + Dimension Jump) 6. Officer Rimmer (Me2 + Meltdown + Out of Time) October 26, 2016 at 2:34 pm #217529 MANI506Participant I will be generally rewatching the series in recording order. October 26, 2016 at 2:40 pm #217530 DaveParticipant Arrangement closest in feel to the classic series: 1. Can of Worms (Camille + Psirens) 2. Samsara (Future Echoes + Marooned + DNA) 3. Twentica (Gunmen) 4. Give and Take (Stasis Leak + Bodyswap + Quarantine) 5. Krysis (Queeg + Timeslides + Dimension Jump) 6. Officer Rimmer (Me2 + Meltdown + Out of Time) I love the idea of ending the entire series with that Officer Rimmer ending. October 26, 2016 at 2:44 pm #217531 (deleted)Member Rob, just swap Twentica for Worms on yours and you get mine. I am fascinated that nearly everybody agrees with Give & Take as a show 1. It may be the first and only broad consensus ever formed on the subject of XI… October 26, 2016 at 5:07 pm #217533 Pete Part ThreeParticipant >I love the idea of ending the entire series with that Officer Rimmer ending. That would probably work quite well. Everyone would initially assume it was a cliff-hanger, and since Red Dwarf is famously crap at paying them off, no one would be that disappointed when it wasn’t. October 26, 2016 at 8:24 pm #217535 Nick RParticipant Arrangement closest in feel to the classic series: I was thinking of matching them up with their series III equivalents: 1. Backwards/Twentica (a trip to 20th century Earth) 2. Marooned/Samsara (isolated conversations) 3. Polymorph/Can of Worms (I have got something in mind as a specific link between these episodes, but to mention it would be a spoiler) 4. Bodyswap/Officer Rimmer (Rimmer misuses technology. OK, this is probably the most tenuous connection) 5. Timeslides/Give & Take (time travel again… but unlike the first episode, here they intervene in their own pasts) 6. The Last Day/Krysis (a Kryten-focused episode in which he meets another mechanoid) October 26, 2016 at 11:06 pm #217539 sd99Participant I’d try and keep an even-quality byte one/two mix. Something akin to: 1. Samsara 2. Krysis 3. Give & Take 4. Can of Worms 5. Officer Rimmer 6. Twentica November 4, 2016 at 7:09 pm #218081 flanl3Participant Twentica, Give & Take, Can of Worms, Officer Rimmer 1. Samsara – simply because imagine the series opening on that model & music, perhaps even as a cold open. 2. Krysis 3. Twentica 4. Can of Worms 5. Give & Take 6. Officer Rimmer – simply because imagine the series ending on that scene. November 4, 2016 at 7:17 pm #218082 (deleted)Member I can’t do the X/XI megamix thing before the has-to-be-first Give And Take must follow the has-to-be-last The Beginning and my head pops. But if you must… Trojan Can Of Worms Lemons Officer Rimmer Krysis The Beginning November 4, 2016 at 7:20 pm #218083 flanl3Participant Twentica, Give & Take, Can of Worms, Officer Rimmer Crap, pretend I didn’t leave these in, I just had them in the textbox to speed up my selection process which I gave up on halfway through. November 4, 2016 at 7:30 pm #218084 flanl3Participant Also, my Dave Era megamix would probably be longer than six, but if it had to be just six: 1. Lemons 2. Samsara 3. Fathers and Suns 4. Back to Earth, Part 3 (I know it kinda needs the other two for context, but whatever) 5.Trojan 6. Officer Rimmer November 4, 2016 at 7:41 pm #218086 Taiwan TonyParticipant Give & Take Krysis Officer Rimmer Part 1. Samsara on in the background while I’m working Twentica Officer Rimmer Part 2. The other one. X & XI UltraSeries Give & Take Lemons Heavily edited Samsara The Beginning And for the remaining ones… CLIP SHOW!
