I’m really, really confident” #95940 MitttttParticipant Genius episode tonight! I don’t hate him at all. April 11, 2009 at 3:21 pm in reply to: Review in the Times #95826 MitttttParticipant She didn’t mention their skin colour. I’m just stating she is targeting two black actors and talking about a lot that has little to do with BtE. She is giving Red Dwarf in general a negative review. She can’t fill the page picking BtE part 1 apart so she chooses to talk about Rd at it’s peak and how uncool it was. And then talk about a rape charges and Danny assaulting bin men…. oh wait he didn’t. Where does she say she was ever a RD fan? Don’t write a poor article dragging up old stories because you can’t fill the page. Especially stories like Craig’s rape charge. Can you imagine the hell he went through at that point in his life!? Being accused of rape spending time in jail only to be cleared. The funniest part though: ”Had the BBC commissioned this it would have been a far more scandalous use of the licence fee than all of Jonathan Ross’s wages. As it is, all that’s happening here is that, once again, teenage Red Dwarf fans are being abused: but this time, by the people expecting them to watch this uninteresting, threadbare and exploitative crud.” Had the BBC commissioned BtE they would have had a successful time slot on Friday the tenth. Probably the highest they’ve had in a very very long time. Instead of hitting new lows and generally getting very poor viewing figures. In regards to RD fans the majority enjoyed the episode. It’s a cruel review by a very spiteful woman. April 11, 2009 at 2:27 pm in reply to: Review in the Times #95820 MitttttParticipant The review was a spiteful load of bullshit. I could agree if she actually picked the show apart but to launch into statements such as: ”In what we might factually term the heyday of Red Dwarf – eight million viewers in 1999, Best Comedy Series at the Comedy Awards – each one of those viewers would still have had to be wary, chary even, about admitting he or she was watching the show to anyone who wasn’t part of that self-same eight million.” So you’re talking about 8 million people = that’s roughly 1 in 6 people in the u.k. Everyone just shut there mouth and tuned in did they? Seems like a bit of a dig if you ask me. ”If ever there were a time that a sitcom about a spaceship carrying a hologram, a man-cat, a robot and a Scouser who shouts ?Smeg!? could become cool, it would be now.” Seemed pretty cool to me when it was winning an emmy, bbc comedy awards and selling over 7 million dvd’s. She seems to know the show well though because she’s right about Lister he’s just a scouser who shouts smeg. ”Danny John-Jules, also a tabloid staple since he was arrested for assaulting a binman while wearing his girlfriend’s dressing gown.” This is another spiteful dig especially as he was found not guilty. So what I said originally wasn’t complete bs as she did NOT mention Danny was acquitted. She’s mentioned a rape charge which Craig was found innocent for. Therefore completely irrelevant. She’s targeted two black actors and tried to staple them together as being law breakers. By mentioning three crimes of which only one is true. April 11, 2009 at 1:25 pm in reply to: Review in the Times #95805 MitttttParticipant This is a really spiteful personal attack. Bringing up Craig’s rape charge which he was cleared of and also Danny’s charge which was also cleared. Ridiculous review no mention of the new look what a b****! April 10, 2009 at 6:04 pm in reply to: 21st Anniversary Tribute #95726 MitttttParticipant I know all three will be new material I just feel when they get back to earth there will be a chance for them to look back on previous adventures (briefly) and maybe there will be a couple of subtle references to them or the fans etc. Or I’ll be completely wrong one of the two! Would be cool if they did. April 9, 2009 at 4:41 pm in reply to: Digital Spy’s review of BtE…. #95526 MitttttParticipant Of the clips i’ve seen I think the episode looks very funny. So long as the story is interesting, I think BtE will be good. I have faith in Doug’ comedic writing skills. Author Replies Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total)
