Been binging it a ton recently and wanted to see if there were any fans on this site :D
Love it.
It’s like working class Star Trek
Very true. The JMC is the merchant navy to Starfleet’s military navy.
I was 4 or 5 years old and I begged my Grandma to let me watch an episode when it came on, I think really just so I could stay up later and I was hooked for life.
I dreamed an episode of Red Dwarf where Lister and Rimmer find an “ancient” article about Sigma Males and each spend the runtime trying to prove they’re the most Sigma before realizing that The Cat is more Sigma than either of them could ever be.
This just sounds like it’d be a real episode lmao
pretty sure there’s a smeghead males joke in there somewhere
I love Red Dwarf. It’s aged surprisingly well too.
I’ve binged it maybe three times; frankly most imaginative space show lagging behind star trek only because red dwarf insists on no intelligent alien life; despite that shortcoming it’s still utterly fantastic.
Except Cat, of course.
Cat’s not alien, though. Felis Sapiens evolved aboard Red Dwarf.
Bred from the common house cat and about half as smart
Yeah, I guess it depends on your definition of sentient alien and if off world evolution of earth life counts.
Everybody’s dead, Dave
Not Peterson?
Shelby?
Gordon Bennett, yes, everybody. everybody is dead Dave

Also Tongue Tied is a banger. The dancing is great too. They’re dancing very much in character.
FR!!!
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
It’s pretty smooth. With a capital SMOO.
absolutely love it!
I used to watch it a ton when I was younger, but haven’t see. It in probably my decades. I’d be down to do a watch party or something if everyone else wants to.
Same here, must be like 30 years ago at this point lol
Was one of the first sci fi comedys I had read about that wasn’t Farscape. I remember watching parts of episodes on either dailymotion, youtube, or google videos (i can’t remember) back in the mid 00s. I think i’ve rewatched at least 3 times now, and still throw on an episode or two whenever i’m sick.
No one talks about it but Lister is a dogboy and hes kinda hot in a slovenly way.
The man literally ate dog food once
Hot
I’m not that into men but I find Lister genuinely attractive at times despite the obvious issues of all of his… Listerness.
I really like it but the laughter is distracting. Just a thing of the times.
They did a remaster set of releases using different footage, and since they didn’t have the budget to re-record the laugh track, some of those episodes don’t have it. Could watch those!
