GIP of sorts

I'm getting drawn back into my older fandoms. All this talk about Red Dwarf, the DVR recording The Sentinel, listening to S Club 7... It's like a time warp.

I was going through the RD art stuffs I've made and wow. I forgot just how active I was. Icons, wallpapers, fanmix, moodtheme, 100 icons of just Rimmer, 50 of Rimmer/Lister. Those were the days. I might not like everything I've made, but it's nice to see it all again. It's been a while. I also noticed I was using some S Club lyrics on TS icons ^_^

And watching actual episodes of S Club 7 brought back so many memories. That song 'Spanish' Jon sang, I had on a tape recorder and would listen - and laugh - over and over again. (Same thing with the song from Young Hercules). I used to have such a crush on Jon. I even had the Jon Lee action figure/Ken-style doll. I remember thinking Hannah and Jon would make such a cute couple. They are ridiculously adorable BFFs. Of course, that was before I realized Jon is most likely gay, which would explain why I had a crush on him in the first place. Nevertheless, Hannah & Jon = BFF <3

Although it's like freakin 90 degrees F here, I keep feeling like it should be cold and I should be wrapped up in a blanket watching Starsky & Hutch, Star Trek: TOS, Red Dwarf, the first few seasons of SG1, The Sentinel (when are they putting the rest of that shit on DVD?!), etc.

I don't know... Also, I want The Middleman on DVD. Now.

SCI FI geeks are in for a treat — Red Dwarf is making a comeback


The cult show’s cast are reuniting for a final hurrah to celebrate a decade since the series ended.

Chris Barrie (Rimmer), Craig Charles (Lister), Danny John-Jules (Cat), Robert Llewelyn (Kryten) and Chloe Annett (Kochanski) have all agreed to take part.

Bosses at digital channel Dave have ordered four 30-minute shows for next year, which will take viewers on a trip down memory lane. They will see the stars pull on their old costumes for some original sketches and also feature some of Red Dwarf’s best bits.

An insider said: “Red Dwarf was one of the Britain’s most cherished shows, which while it seemed quite geeky, had a huge audience.

“At its height eight million viewers tuned in so it feels only right that we should have a celebration.

“All the major cast members have signed up — even those who have been in the news for the wrong reasons lately.”

The Sun revealed how 47-year-old John-Jules — also a regular on children’s series The Story Makers — allegedly went berserk with a 16-inch knife after two dustmen refused to empty his bin at his London home.

Charles, 44, has also courted controversy after being filmed smoking crack cocaine in the back of a taxi.

Red Dwarf, which centred around the crew of a mining spaceship, ran for eight series on the BBC from 1988 before it was finally axed in 1999.

The spoof sci-fi show made household names of Barrie and Charles — who now plays taxi driver Lloyd Mullaney in Coronation Street.
