Red Dwarf
I have been a fan of Red Dwarf for I don’t even know how many years. I remember before I was introduced to the wonders of satellite television watching it on my local PBS channel really late at night.
Well just the other day I completed my DVD collection of the entire British series. I finally broke down and bought the last three seasons last week - and that is pretty much all I have been doing during my free time. Catching up watching episodes I haven’t seen in years.
I never really got into your Star Wars or Star Trek or anything else traditional with “star” in the title. So why get into a series about a group of guys traveling through space? It was one of the most brilliantly written television shows I have ever seen - thats why.
Even though it has been some time since their original airing - they are still good. You could watch it for your first time today, and not have that feeling that you watching a TV show that was on ten or more years ago. Can you say the same thing about the Fresh Prince of Bel Air? I don’t think so.
So if your wanting something new to watch or you want to find out more information - I would suggest checking out the official Red Dwarf Web site. Here are some more links to help you learn more about the series as well:
