Red Dwarf cancelled! :(

This isn't NEW news, it's a few months old, but I never brought it up on here.

The BBC have rejected Doug Naylor's request to finally commission series 9 of Red Dwarf after nearly a decade of the Red Dwarf Movie being in limbo, claiming that they now want to appeal to a different audience.

This, despite it being BBC2's longest running and most successful sitcom, one of BBC2's highest rating shows of all time and one of the BBC's most successful international exports. What a bunch of morons. They could probably pay the budget for a new series using just a portion of the money they made on the last DVD release. Wankers.
