I started watching this back in the early 90s. I remember stumbling across a PBS marathon of it and getting hooked right there. And eventually, one of the other channels started carrying it nightly.

I have to admit, it is one of the few shows that actually stayed good in spite of running for several years. Years of character development can ruin a sitcom, but in Red Dwarf's case, getting to know the characters only enhanced the comedy. I mean, the Arnold Rimmer ride, complete with miniature singing Rimmers, was hilarious because we had come to know the character so well. And the characters, their personalities and their antics stayed fairly consistent all the way through.

Really, it's impressive that by the eighth season they could still do something as hilarious as the T-Rex rampaging through the ship, gorging itself on curry, followed by orange popsicles and Coca-Cola, then getting violently ill. And it was never actually shown, just described by the captain. Brilliant stuff.

So many good episodes. The original Kryten episode, the DNA episode, Queeg, the Polymorph, Ace Rimmer. Love that show.

Doggett -- Please please keep everyone informed, re. the upcoming specials.  I for one had no idea about this -- I did not see JJ80's press release -- and would love to catch up with old friends --

They're gonna be on channel Dave not the BBC, if you're wondering.

I can remember, not too long ago, when we didn't have Dave and that memory makes me weep.

I always liked Red Dwarf growing up, but was the only one in my household who did, so hardly ever got to watch it Bluesad so am excited about the two specials.

I only just recently discovered about a year ago-- or maybe I did see it as a little kid but don't remember it.
Anyway I loved what I've seen; it's a bit like the Young Ones meets The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy.

I loved this show.  At least when I got a chance to see it.  It was on a time when the rest of my family was trying to get the tv.  And it was on a weird station, that was sort of PBS 2.  Only our cable tv picked it up. 

Still, it always made me laugh when I got a chance to see it.

I was a bit disappointed with the new Dwarf; I have to say I didn't even chuckle one during all three episodes  Bluesad - it seemed a bit self indulgent and I thought it was a bit naff being set in Coronation Street and not Outer Space

There were a few good spots here and there, but overall I was kind of disappointed with it as well. For me it just had a "been there done that, only better" vibe.

The FDA has been looking for a generic name for Viagra. After careful consideration by a team of government experts, it recently announced that it has settled on the generic name of Mycoxafloppin. Also considered were Mycoxafailin, Mydixadrupin, Mydixarizin, Dixafix, and of course, Ibepokin.

    Earth is visited by a GIANT ANTIMATTER SPACE BUZZARD! Gawk at the amazingly bad bird puppet, or chuckle over the silly dialog. This is one of the greatest b-movies ever made.
