OK?

I thought this season was disappointing, to be frank. Season 7 had some pretty dire content, but at least it didn't suffer from multi-part diahorrea.
The trilogy that opened the series deteriorated each week.
"Cassandra" was a glimpse back to classic Red Dwarf plots.
"Krytie TV" was confused, but funny at times. "Pete" Parts 1 & 2 was absolute PANTS!
Such a thin story dragged out over an hour (it felt like more). Endless apperences before Hollister to spout unfunny dialogue over & over & over...

I haven't seen the elusive finale yet, since the Beeb decided to show it early and unannounced.

The Rimmer/Lister banter was a welcome return to previous style, but the other characters were woefully underserviced.
The throwaway scenes in "Pete" about Kryten and his sentientpenis was just plain embarassing. I felt like switching channels, and I was watching alone! The Cat didn't do a damn thing all season.

I dunno, but judging recent work aganst the earlier seasons I conclude that Red Dwarf either needs new writers BADLY, or should be cancelled forthwith.

An unborn scream burst in my stomach,
and spread like cold mercury through my chest.
I covered my face with my hands, but kept looking through my fingers.
"Write that down!", he told the stick.
"Is visibly destroyed, yet unable to turn away".

Sorry you missed the Season 8 finale, which is a cliff-hanger.
