I smegging love Red Dwarf! Been a fan since I was a kid! I got to meet Craig Charles and Robert Llewellyn when I was a teenager when they came to my area for a public TV pledge drive Red Dwarf marathon that my mom was volunteering for. They were both total sweethearts and hilarious too! Very generous with their time and love for their fans. I gave Craig Charles a drawing of Red Dwarf that I made and they signed a bunch of stuff for me! Robert Llewellyn called me a "big lug"! That still makes me laugh. :P One of my most treasured memories. This is a truly great show that not enough people know about, and I hope they still get to make more someday!

Chris Barrie was a twat tho, I remember queuing to see him at comic con somewhere in the UK, I think it was Milton Keynes? IDK, but Robert and Danny were sweethearts, I remember Danny talking to me for so long about music and our band that the security had to come and shuffle us on then later I bumped into him while he was on the way to the toilet at he was like 'hey, I remember u! Music GUY!' and Robert Signed my Old windows Phone battery cover, but Chris? There were two Fit blondes behind me in the the queue, so as I go to shake his hand he looks right over my shoulder at the girls and thats it, Im moved on so he can hit on a couple girls a third his age. Always stuck with me which was a shame cos I was a huge brittas Empire fan and I really thought he was a decent dude, turns out What Doug and Grant Said about the characters was true: Theyre all extentions of the actors, so Rimmers portrayal isnt too far removed from what Rob and Doug ACTUALLY thought about Chris Barrie and his attitude.

I never actually realised how well JMC looked after their employees... all the pieces were there, but I didn't put them together in my head. Considering the pessimistic and cynical picture Red Dwarf paints of the mid-to-far future of human space travel, realising how good the Dwarfers actually had it was a nice surprise! One *small* note though, if I may; Article 5 and the backup computer are a total fabrication, "Queeg 500" was literally a bored Holly twin-screen streaming with a different face and voice. I'm sure there was some kind of emergency contingency in place for the eventuality of a catastrophic/total computer failure, but Queeg himself never existed.

JMC's ships were definitely excellent, albeit with a few "minor" safety issues that likely could have been fixed with a little redesign, but they seemed to have a bad habit of hiring people into positions they couldn't handle. It's really telling that one of their ships could still be in livable shape after three million years, including having an entire species evolve, form a civilization, make holy war, then leave and still have functioning power and breathable atmosphere with the biggest issue turning out to be the local AI population only becoming moderately eccentric.

Great to see some Red Dwarf content. I grew up the the 80's so the show is part of my childhood. “Step up to red alert." Sir, are you absolutely sure? It does mean changing the bulb." Probably my favourite Red Dwarf joke.

It is rare to find such a detailing of Red Dwarf . Most people do all the star trek , or star wars ships. Thank you for making this.

@@geoffreyrichards6079 Well, it does in Britain. And we understand it better, since it's aimed at us and our culture. We get all the jokes and stuff without needing explanation... usually... We get the general emotional feel of the thing, American stuff is always upbeat even in miserable circumstances. We're depressed even in upbeat circumstances! Did you ever see that video of Big Bang Theory with the canned laughter cut out? You can see, they leave a pause after most sentences for the obligatory laughs. British comedy isn't so craven. Not so desperate to validate our jokes with laughter, real or otherwise. We don't point out the jokes because we assume the audience is intelligent enough to get them, and if they don't, there's no point telling them. American sitcoms are... stupid! They're really aimed at the low-IQ market, but Americans aren't really any stupider than other nations. We'll put politics to one side for a second. But apart from that, I don't think Americans need all the laugh-gaps and canned laughter and everyone ending their sentences with a Groucho eyebrow wiggling or a "hey hey!", or a cymbal crash. But they're there anyway. Maybe it's "notes" and insecre executives. In the UK we don't have that, much stuff is made by independent studios who sell their shows to the networks. The BBC have their own in-house production facilities but they let their producers and directors work unbothered and free. So they're able to take risks, where US mainstream sitcoms don't even take the smallest ones. Everything has to be suitable for literally everyone, and you can't risk offending either side of the massively partisan, hugely biased, political scene. It's not really a "spectrum" when everyone's blue or red, no greens and yellows in the middle. Though when you *actually* survey people... it turns out most people actually agree on nearly everything about how life should be lived, how a country should function, what sort of laws we need and don't need. Regardless of which party they've been hoodwinked into identifying with. Through scaremongering and inciting outrage, usually. Mostly, people are OK. But politics is so *poisonous* now, they'll do any horrendous thing in the name of Our Team vs Their Team. But when it comes down to what actually makes a difference, both teams are "help the rich get richer, give more money to the rich, lower taxes for the rich (but pretend ordinary people are going to benefit). Then, retire, and go join the board of some company you did favours for, for a well-paid sinecure. Worse than some banana republic, at least there you get bananas! Pardon the rant...

I love the scene where Rimmer went on a vacation in the Red Dwarf with the scutters.

The other thing I liked about red dwarf, was that the four crew members had free reign over the giant mining vessel.

The back-up computer was a joke by Holly to show the crew how much they needed him.

@glenngriffon8032

Yeah I'm pretty sure it wasn't actually a thing on the ship. Holly makes it abundantly clear at the end of the episode that he was Queeg and that Queeg never existed.

It amuses me that it takes the 'express lift' over 3 hours to travel 5 miles. Only thing slower is Rimmer pulling at a disco

Its a series for which I could have a memory wipe so I can watch it again not knowing what is going to happen. Love it still.

Red Dwarf is still to this day my favourite TV show by a long way, I've been a fan since I saw Queeg aged 12

Glad you said Smeg Off at the end! Always nice to see other Red Dwarf fans out there. The series is a classic.

I love that Red Dwarf was actually one of the most "realistic" (grounded in real science) sci-fis out there, esp in the early seasons. I think only the Expanse has done that more lol. Also depressingly realistic in its depiction of the future (interplanetary capitalism, corporatism, environmental collapse, cynicism etc. You have to laugh or you'd go mad!

30 odd years later and this series is still going strong, even the fact that there’s going to be a new season! I wish Lego would hurry up and make sets of this!

As an American, we got this on PBS late at night on the weekends. I remember watching reruns in the mid to late 90s and loved this show. This show and Are You Being Served were my first forays into British comedy and I have to say, I haven't found their equivalent since. Edit: Oh, and Mr. Bean.

This, Dr. Who, and others were on Public TV in the USA at the end of the century. It is certainly a great introduction to the range of scifi after finding an interest in star trek, 2001, and the outer limits. Brilliant work.

Bit rude too, got too much so in the end, but really weird far-out plots, often really funny, often very dark and unpleasant (AND funny!).
