Were seasons 11-13 just a (bad) dream? Or will it start with Mike and the bots living in an efficiency on the bus line like at the end of Diabolik?

EDIT: Assuming that he is shot into space again...

Is there some new stuff being made?

They're rebooting the series.

Mike and Mads reunion for old times sake

They've been posting regular updates on YouTube. The last one I saw was a rehearsal for filming the intro. I don't remember the exact lyrics, but iirc, it does give a hint about them being back on the SoL.

Ok, but remember: TV's Frank died and was assumed into 2nd Banana Heaven by Torgo the White and Dr. Forrester became a Starchild!

It wouldn’t surprise me if it was some kind of meta-joke about how they’re doing it because Joel did it or something. I doubt 11-13 will be retconned because Shout still owns it.

Yeah. “Mike Nelson and his robot pals are stuck in the same old place.”

Frank already came back for a visit after his "death." These things are easily handwaved.
