An awesome comedy from the late 80's-90's. I would imagine that the Brits on the forum are well aware of it's greatness, but probably not everyone else.

It's a sci fi comedy that ran for 10 series which I think might be quite popular on here to people looking for a new tv show. It's based around the last surviving human stranded in space with the company of his least favorite colleague reserrected as a hologram, a cat evolves into a humananoid in the 3 million years between pilot and episode 2 and a robot who's having his programming broken and the computer senile operating system . Well worth a watch series 2 -6 are gold.

Everybody's dead Dave.

Also Quinoa is pretty much the living embodiment of Arnold Rimmer and I love him for it.

Red Dwarf is one of my favourite shows! I've seen them all to bloody death! I love the Mr Flibbles episode! :D

Cat is my favourite character, but I do like Holly and Kryten ahhhh it's too hard to pick a fav really! Fantastic show!

This is now stuck in my head!

I only watched this show in its entirety last year. I am a bad Brit. :(

But I loved it! Just gotta watch that most recent season they released. Eventually.

Red Dwarf is my favourite show of all time. Me and Cloudane on here have a mutual love for it!

My friend Hannah occasionally tests me by quoting an episode. I have never yet failed to name what episode it was and from what series... I have seen all of them way to many times!

I agree that series 2-6 were just fantastic. Marooned is probably my favourite episode. The dialogue between Rimmer and Lister in that is outstanding.

I watched it as a kid on BBC2 comedy nights and totally forgot about until 3 years ago. I watch it start to finish at least twice a year now, classic show and nothing else like it out there.

Rimmsy is one of my favourite characters of all time, such an arse..... smeghead.

I've been a fan for almost as long as I've been a Doctor Who fan (nearly twenty years). I've seen all of it except Back to Earth, which I have heard very mixed things about .

Back to Earth didn't happen. It is simply not something that exists. At all. In fact, what am I even talking about?

I have no idea.

Hey Bubba, you'd lose a battle of wits with a stuffed iguana. Episode?

Easy. Series 1 episode 1 'The End'.

I'm not really here I'm not really me. I'm a computer simulation of me. That's me over there... that pile of albino mouse droppings.

Ha, oh man that's from series 7! Probably my least favourite of the first 8 series if I'm honest. Not being filmed in front of an audience definitely affected the quality.

I think it was the flashback scene when Rimmer was telling Lister that he couldn't get someone like Kochanski and his type were gilrs called 'Tiffany'.

Pretty sure that was episode 3 'Ouroboros'

my sister and i found this on netflix and now it's a toss up between Red Dwarf and Doctor Who on what we watch in the evenings. Honestly It's just good tv.

Just started watching series 1 again as it is nearly 2am and I need to sleep. It soothes me.

Keep in mind that there's far more Doctor Who to watch. You can marathon through Red Dwarf in a couple of days.

we marathon through a good bit of Who in a couple of days too, but then we don't sleep or anything much when we do. Lol!

You spelled it wrong. It should be "JOZXYQK". And, yes, I have memorized that. Complete with the pronunciation "Zed" for the letter "Z". Have I seen that show too often? Maybe.

There aren't enough EOFFers giving their Red Dwarf love. I demand at least 100 members posting in here.

The time for talking is over. Now call it extreme if you like, but I propose we hit them hard, and we hit them fast, with a major, and I mean major, leaflet campaign.
