Red Dwarf
 

I don't know how many of you know about this awesome British show. The plot is fairly simple, a man awakens three million years after being put into stases to find the rest of the crew dead. He finds a life form evolved from the cat he smuggled on board, a hologram of his dead bunk mate he can't stand, and the ships computer that has gone senile. His goal is to get back to Earth and the show deals with the hijinks that ensue.

Anyway I started watching it again. I have all eight seasons on DVD, only missing the most recent dvd Back to Earth. For a show that started in 1988 and ran to 1999, with a few hiatuses, it still stands the test of time.

I was just wondering if there were any other fans on here. Talk about the good old days. Talk about the new season that is supposed to air this fall.

i love this show! is it on NetFlix?

It is on Netflix, at least it was last time I checked.

I started watching my dvd's of this for the first time in about five years. They were in Oregon and I was in Indiana. Man I missed this show.

I was thinking of how awesome it would be if there were action figures.

awesomeness! :tcool:

I just started the episode where Craig Fergeson plays Lister's confidence. He was so young back then. Probably one of my favorite episodes from season 1.

i'm going to start watching on my next holidays

New season starts this fall. I just hope they bring it over on BBC America.

i love that show, the writer posted in 2003 that they're bring it back into the movies with the original cost from the show..just upgraded ..i love the backward world when Cat went to **** and the **** went up his ass at the end of the show lmao i couldnt stop laughing...it was sick ,but funny because he forgot.

Yeah i believe it was 2009 they ended up going with a three part mini-series cause they couldn't get the funding for a movie off the ground. It was called Back to Earth and was really good. It showed that people still loved these characters and wanted more of them. So it lead to the team trying to get funding for another season. They did it and filmed a new season last year. It is set to air this fall in England, no word on if it will make the leap across the pond this fall or not though.

and BBC Canada for us! or at least air it on SPACE like we do with Doctor Who

I really thought there would be more of us on here. Anyway making my way through season 2 and it's just as amazing now as it was then.

this is an amazing show! The intro alone is worth checking out, even if the plot doesnt float yer boat.
Anyone remember Kryten's groinal attachment?

Ah yes. I believe it's name was Arthur in season 8. He lost it so the classified him as a woman and he had to share a cell with Kochanski.

i found it all on Amazon so when i get some extra dough i plan to gets it all!

Fun Fun Fun, in the Sun Sun Sun.

I know someone who went to the Season 10 recordings as part of the canned laughter audience. They said what they saw was great, but obviously could not give details.

But yeah, the canned laughter is back.

Add me to the list! This show was beyond awesome! I'm very glad to hear there's a new season coming - I will be keeping an eye out for it.

That episode with Kryten's groinal attachment was one of my favorites! I also LOVE the Smeg-ups episodes. Another one of my favorite episodes was the one with the Inquisitor; I always crack up laughing when the Inquisitor talks through Lister.

I could go on all day! Now I want to find the episodes and have a Red Dwarf marathon.

:trazz:

Yeah, this show rules. I never got too far into it but I was a big fan of what I did see. I'm transferring my iTunes library to my new computer and I just found my Red Dwarf music. So good.

We have our first look at Red Dwarf 10

yes yes yes!!!

Awesome! I'm so excited for season 10.

Our first trailer

I love Red Dwarf. I've met Craig Charles, who plays Lister. I wish I could remember more about it though... this was years ago.

This looks great. Can't wait to see more. Wonder how long it will take to get it over here in USA.

Has anyone seen an official release date for this.

Not yet, was hoping there was an update

October 4th on DAVE. No U.S airdate confirmed yet, I don't even think RD has a network pick-up over there.

I figured it would be shown on BBC America. Though I don't know for sure. I saw them on PBS growing up. Just curious as how and when it will come over here.

Red Dwarf is no longer associated with the BBC, they didnt want a new series, DAVE are an independent channel and offered to pay for new episodes, so the show moved there.

The 2009 series, Back to Earth, aired on PBS in the States, so this will likely happen with Series X.

I'd say just wait for the DVD.

Well I'm hoping it airs on SPACE here

You folks in the UK let us Yanks know how it was after the premiere tonight. ;)

yeah totally!

The 'Dwarfers are back.

Rimmer was at his weasly best tonight, managing to hoodwink his brother Howard into thinking he was a qualified captain, he even kept the pretense up as Howard was on his deathbed, what a smegger.

Poor Lister, his rant about filing a complaint to the phone order service was great, and while the phone ultimately died on him, he managed to get a Stirmaster after all in the most unexpected of ways (using the Simulant)

Whenever you hear of swedish drivers, always think of a moose.

Full episode

Bloomin marvellous!

thanks Zarius!

man i hope we get this in NA soon

That was amazing. Thanks for sharing. Can't wait to see more.

Another quality episode. The Chinese Whispers sub-plot was brilliant and peaked at "Nickers have braces". Lister taking advantage of "Dave Jr"'s registration was great storytelling and a tremendous pay-off. Looks like the 'Dwarfers won't be installing another computer for a bit if THAT was the result.

Next week the crew meet Jesus!

This needs to come on in NA soon specially seeing as bloody YouTube is taking the eps down
