Hyperdrive (2006–2007)
3/10
I so wanted to like it...

I love Red Dwarf.

There, I've said it and I'm not going to mention it again since the only flaw anyone's been able to find with Hyperdrive is that it's not as good as Red Dwarf. That's really not the point because it has very little in common with Red Dwarf at all apart from the fact that it's set in space.

Hyperdrive is boring. It's badly put together, badly acted by people who should know far more about comedic timing and it all feels rather sad because it's a good opportunity that's been wasted. The first episode was complete rubbish but I told myself I'd give it a chance and keep watching. Unfortunately it didn't get any better. In a half hour show I laughed maybe twice and that was at Kevin Eldon as York, who is the only character in it that is even remotely funny.

Don't waste your time. That's half an hour you're never getting back...
