Yeah, like something that's "hot" is "cool", something that's "good" is
"bad" and it's even gooder when it's BAD. Man:-). You learned all that
reverse crap from us y'know.

It's too bad we didn't learn how to spell properly as well. heehh

It's a forlorn hpe that things'll change too:-))

I believe there's a Yank version now, but it WON'T be anytihng like the
original. I mean how can you Yanks get your heads round a cast of
characters
that consist of "Dave Lister", a toilet cleaner who eats chicken vindaloo
from an old sock and thinks he's a guitar god, "Arnold Rimmer" a vending
machine "tech" that doesn't know his arse from his elbow, but thinks he's
gods gift to quantum mechanics (he's also a hologram as he died in an
radiation leak he caused) and he can't touch anything or BE touched). The
other characters are "Kryton" a series 4000 'roid with the wisdom of the
universe programmed into him and "The Cat", who's a cat at the end of 3
million years of evolution in Red Dwarf's hold (Red Dwarf's the name of
the
spaceship), and occasionally "Holly", the on-bard computer with an IQ of
6000. (Actually it's 6, but that's by the by:-)

Sounds a bit like Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy".

Better, but with a similar snese of the ridiculous. One TV prog from the
states WAS (what appeared to be) a half arsed attempt at Red Dwarf, but it
didn't work too well. That was "Lexx" with that lip enhanced tart who's name
escapes me. She was a sex slave in the program.

Loved the books,
the movie sucked rocks.

I heard that, but I never saw it. I believe it's on one of the movie
channels this month, so I'll look out for it and see if it's as bad as
reports say it is.


It's THE cult TV show to watch and it's VERY cleverly written, as there's
a
lot going on that requires a fairly open mind.

Well, I don't watch a lot of television and those few shows I do watch
are usually documentaries or other such "educational" shows. (he one
on building a bridge across the Bering Strait was pretty cool)

I'm a bit of an anorak when it comes to those shows too. Massive Engines,
Mega Structures, etc. Disovery Wings ain't too bad either when something new
airs.


I do stop for the occasional Benny Hill
or Kenny Everet show tho.

Oh please. If Benny Hill's face appeared on my TV, the next thing to
appear
on it would be a steel toe-capped boot thrwon with every ounce of strength
I
could muster.

Most sane people would just change the channel.. hehehe

Not enough violence involved doing that. I can't beleive his shows still go
out on air y'know. He was Ok(ish) "back then", but slapstick comedy died a
well deserved death over here, thank ****.



I have a neighbor like that (Except the football part. I doubt he
knows what a football looks like...)

I doubt I would either. I believe I saw one once at school, but that was
as
I was ducking out of the lesson for a ciggie. Once seen, never kicked.

I know quite a few dogs like that.. Those little yappie kind that
just NEED a boot planted in their ass...

At least I don't have to dress up in wimmins tights and wear a **** load of
protective gear. Oops, as you were, I'm bike rider:-))
