Customer rating: 5 out of 5 stars Very Enjoyable

I grew-up on Red Dwarf and spaced also and have and have been holding out for another series on Red Dwarf for years, when Hyperdrive came to our screen I didn't think it could compare to Red Dwarf... I was wrong! I loved Red Dwarf and have watched it to death and Hyperdrive have made laugh just as much... u have to be observant to find humour in the show joke aren't made obvious all the time and if you have the inteligence in you then you will see that the humour... well worth making another series... but I said the same about spaced and it never happened.

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars Really not that bad...

A lot of people (probably the type who think "Little Britain" is the last word in comedy) dissed "Hyperdrive" - but it's really not all that bad. It's not great either - it's character-based, and some of the characters are crap (e.g. the beardy guy and his sidekick) - but it's a definite grower. Series 2 considerably stronger than 1. Comparisons with "Red Dwarf" are justified; indeed, I suspect that the Beeb specifically wanted to commission a space-based comedy to go for the Dwarf demographic.

Worth a punt - you naysayers need to open your minds a bit.

Customer rating: 3 out of 5 stars An enjoyable series.....

Hyperdrive is an enjoyable series. Nick Frost is as always excellent and fans of his will love this. although not as good as red dwarf its still worth a purchase.

The first thing that some of the reviewers need to get over here is that whether you like it or not is a personal thing, so don't be put off by comments of "don't buy this" etc. etc.

I'm a fan of both Spaced and Red Dwarf (both 5 star programmes in my opinion) and am also a fan of Hyperdrive (albeit a 4 star score). It's more of a chuckle, compared to Red Dwarf and Spaced's guffaws, but nonetheless I find it thoroughly enjoyable.

Clearly some don't, but give it a try.

Customer rating: 4 out of 5 stars I liked it.

As a die hard fan of Red Dwarf, HyperDrive was just up my street. It is a whitey , hillarious Sc-fi comedy.

Nick frost is funny on his own so if its got him in then you know it has to be funny. Hyperdrive is not the best made prgram in the world but it prduces the laguhs you need.

Seriestwo is alot funnier in my oppinion than the first one. But if your a fan of the Sc-fi comedy (like myself) then this is a definate must get for you.

Customer rating: 1 out of 5 stars Like Red Dwarf

but entirely unfunny and completely unwatchable.

Watch Rob Brydon's Supernova instead.

After a couple of harsh reviews of this series, i thought id give my opinion. Kevin Eldon is far and away the highlight of the show. He plays the second in command, an over-zealous officer with a great darkside which is kevin all over. sort of reminds me of his cameo as the cleaner in a black books episode. Fans of his (like myself) will appreciate the genius of many of his lines. nick frost is hit & miss as the inept captain, and many of the largely unknown supporting cast surprise at times with some genuinely funny moments (especially season 1). i think Miranda Hart is the weakest character. The unappreciated token female. Although she is not terrible, she shares in few of the funniest moments. The episode plots are generally pretty throwaway sci-fi spoofs, and lack the originality of shows like the mighty boosh or black books, and is not as well written as spaced. some of the pop culture references are amusing, however (the episode where vine buys a planet from ebay is a highlight). Overall i would recommend this to kevin eldon fans, and possibly fans of nick frost. its dark at times and has its classic moments. Also i think its much better than some of the later episodes of red dwarf. if you like to have a collection of easy going comedy box sets that can raise a smile at any time of the day this is definately worth adding to the shelf.

It's like the Office, in that you'll either love it, and be able to quote entire lines from it, and sing it's praises non-stop...

Or you'll loathe it's entire existance, and wish that you could take a baseball bat to the creator's who first thought of the idea...

Personally, I think it's pretty good sci-fi comedy. Not as good as Red Dwarf, but what is?

This is a series that doesn't take itself too seriously, and when it tries to do so, it's tongue is set firmly in cheek.

Don't watch this series expecting laugh-a-minute comedy, but if you can appreciate a slightly weird, off-beat take, then you'll probably enjoy this. People might not appreciate certain actor's, and their characters, but they do create an eclectic crew that all have their moments, and that's what helps this series. You don't neccesarily know who's going to make you laugh next...

Chances are it'll be York though. What's not to laugh about a borderline psychopath, who just happens to be First Officer...?

This show isn't for everyone, but for those who take the time, and are open to more 'diverse' things, then Hyperdrive can be a worthy addition to your collection.

I can't believe they ever made a second series of this utter waste of time and resources for the BBC! A generally good cast are forced to spout rubbish dialogue and cheap childish gags! This is the 'worst' the beeb have produced for years! Don't you DARE compare Red Dwarf to this, this is dross!
