synaesthesia Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 So that was another cracking episode. 2/2 - this clearly is return to form. The Father/Son video chat was fantastically well done, certainly a nod back to similar well thought out and very clever ideas they had back in the day! Thoroughly enjoyed yet again. Can't wait for next week's now which looks different! Oh, and for those that watched the trailer for next weeks... "Jesus!" "Yes?"

Next week's does look very interesting and already excited about it!
Gibbo Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Much better than the first episode, it was comedy gold when Lister picked up his guitar. I'm not too sure about Cat's role though, it looks like they're struggling a little, and returning to the old "this is mine" bit. I think his best moments were navigating Starbug when they spent the series on there.
edutech4schools Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 I think his best moments were navigating Starbug when they spent the series on there. For me the opposite. All those silly 'breaking regulation 118726 section b' jokes got on my t~ts.

Gibbo Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 For me the opposite. All those silly 'breaking regulation 118726 section b' jokes got on my t~ts. Was that Cat? Or Kryten-Rimmer?
DMcGuigan Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Even though @DMcGuigan reminded me it was on, I still missed it. Heh, I'm like a Red Dwarf alarm, soon as it starts WoW goes bye bye. It'll be on again a few times over the next week though.
synaesthesia Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 I dunno, quite a few Space Core Regulations had me in stitches. "Any office caught sniffing the saddles in the womens gym..." "No officer with false teeth should attempt oral sex in zero gravity"
Rawns Posted October 15, 2012 Author Posted October 15, 2012 Just watching some classic dwarf and noticed something. S05E03 - Terrorform, at the end of the episode, they all hug and Lister grabs around the shoulder and squeezes him, but Rimmer does not become 'hard light' unit S06E02 - Leigon! God I sound like a right dwarf nerd!
X-13 Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 God I sound like a right dwarf nerd! Sound like? You passed that a long time ago.
GREED Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 They explained that one away, the psy moon he was on made him real, he was tied up an that as well remember.
synaesthesia Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 And oiled. Very well oiled. That very day, Rimmer became the biggest bastard to become a sex symbol!

I once dated a girl who knew the scripts and timings for the first three series off by heart, you could play her the start of an episode then turn the sound down and she would recite the script for the rest of the show, she didn't even need to watch the TV.

I'm pretty sure I could do that now. I've watched them all so many times.
synaesthesia Posted October 16, 2012 Posted October 16, 2012 Aye. I watched it so much as a kid I wore the VHS tapes out. And I wrote the entire script to one of the episodes (can't remember which) on the table during an English exam. I should have handed the table in. (almost a Rimmer joke itself there!)
EPCHS Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Didn't really enjoy last night's as good as last week's show. I felt the laughter problem was back again. A couple of minutes in Lister was reading the book and said "....composed twinkle twinkle little star at the age of five", which got a laugh. Why? It wasn't funny. I think Dave should show two versions of the show, one without the laughter the day after.
X-13 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Why? It wasn't funny. In your opinion. However, obviously other people don't agree.
witch Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Well I do. The show is funny in its own right - it doesnt need random laughter inserted in odd places to try and make it seem funnier.
X-13 Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 Well I do. The show is funny in its own right - it doesnt need random laughter inserted in odd places to try and make it seem funnier. Wasn't this already covered? It isn't inserted.
localzuk Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 The laugh track is from a live studio audience. Not sure if it is there when filming, or whether it is recorded during a viewing. But whichever way, it is legitimate laughter, not just canned and added randomly.
CHR1S Posted October 19, 2012 Posted October 19, 2012 It may be legitimate laughter but, it does not mean its the live laughter for that specific joke. These shows are heavily edited and post produced from the filming stage. 2
