   It was mentioned in the series 8 book that the people on the Red Dwarf   
   newsgroup hated it. The impression I got was how *dare* we dislike   
   someting that so much time, effort and most importantly *money* had   
   gone into producing. It was almost as if he thought we were ungrateful   
   sods for not appreciating something he thought was great, and that we had   
   some kind of a 'duty' to like it because of all the effort that went into   
   making it.
