Movie Reviews of Red Dwarf - Series 8
Movie Review: Great series/season!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love Red Dwarf. Seasons 5-7 were getting a bit lame (not horrible, but not as good as previous), but this (last?) season picks it back up and freshens all the jokes back up again. Very good season and good DVD.
Summary of Red Dwarf - Series 8
The nanobots have populated the ship with its original crew. This is especially good news for Rimmer who is now a lot less dead but is extremely bad news for everyone else. Locked up on Red Dwarf's prison deck the crew join the Canaries a battle hardened convict army and not as they first thought the prison choir. Pity it's not with the girl of his dreams. Pity it's not with a girl.Running Time: 240 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: TELEVISION/SERIES & SEQUELS Rating: N/A UPC: 794051249821 Manufacturer No: E2498What's in store for the crew of the Red Dwarf in their final adventures? Well, for one, they've all been re-created--even Arnold Rimmer (unfortunately)--by the Nanobots, but Lister, Kochanski, Cat, and Kryten are almost immediately in hot water for allegedly stealing the Starbug. From there, things get stranger (or back to normal by Red Dwarf standards): it seems that everything the crew is experiencing is an artificial-reality creation programmed by the Red Dwarf's captain, Hollister ("Back in the Red, Part 2"); Rimmer discovers that despite his recent revival, he's doomed to die soon ("Cassandra"), which puts a serious crimp in his plan to finally make officer; the rewired Kryten turns a pet sparrow into a rampaging dinosaur ("Pete, Part 1") and turns a tidy profit by secretly filming women in the shower ("Krytie TV); and finally, the Grim Reaper comes to call in the series finale, "Only the Good Die Young," which reveals the fate of the entire crew. More bizarre than bittersweet, series 8 is classic Red Dwarf lunacy and an inspired sendoff for this unique and clever U.K. cult TV series. As with previous DVD sets, series 8 is loaded with extras, including commentary by the cast on "Cassandra"; "The Tank," which offers interviews with the cast and crew; and featurettes on the show's origins and special model effects designer Bill Pearson. Rounding out the extras are deleted scenes, raw effects footage, a gallery of stills, a frothy "Fight!" music featurette comprised of brawl scenes from the series, a battery of promotional spots filmed for BBC and American PBS stations (as well as the amusing Star Wars, Episode I: The Phantom Menace parody that heralded the beginning of series 8), a 1984 "Dave Hollings: Space Cadet" radio sketch, and as always, a collection of "smeg-ups" (bloopers). --Paul Gaita
