    I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

    Quality British Humour set in space.The improbable premise of the show gets a bit stretched at times through the show's many iterations. The special effects are very much out of the Blue Peter sticky back plastic play book. There are often plot holes so big that you could fly a space ship through them. However! The very able cast easily make up for the shows many deficiencies. They play off each other expertly and as the series progress develop their characters to comedy perfection.

    Red Dwarf is and will forever be the funniest show ever ever!!!!! Believe me, Believe! Just watch and you too will see. Witty banter, Check. Slap stick, Uh Check. A Stellar Cast so big that the writers of the show had to empty an entire galaxy for these Phenomenal Stars! Red Dwarf is a monolithic beast. It is the longest running show I have personally watched. At the time of my review, this fall the red dwarf crew is setting high sail for yet more comedic adventures! The 12th season is just around the corner.Red dwarf forever ever.

    Anybody who enjoys quirky British comedy and science fiction couldn't help but love the first six series of this show (1988-93). Unfortunately, when writer Rob Grant left leaving only Doug Naylor to take the show forward, the show began a serious decline in quality. Series VII and VIII (1997 & 1999) were still OK, but it was pretty evident that the magic was gone.After a decade-long hiatus, the show was back in 2009 with the abominable three-part miniseries Back to Earth, now considered the ninth series. Plenty of reviewers have already noted how disappointing this series was and why, so I won't repeat the obvious.When plans for a new series to be aired in 2012 were announced, many of us who love the show shuddered, thinking that surely it couldn't be anywhere near as bad as the last effort. After watching the first couple of episodes, it is apparent that there is at least an attempt to return to the verve of the first six series. Regrettably, however, much of what I watched simply wasn't all that funny. I'll watch the rest, as I am too much of fan to miss them.My advice for anyone who has never seen an episode is to start at the beginning with Series I and work your way through the classic episodes in order. They are timelessly funny and stand up to repeated viewings.

    This series is the ultimate blend of British comedy and low-budget sci-fi. Dave Lister, a working-class, curry-loving, lager-swilling, chicken soup machine repairman aboard the asteroid mining ship, Red Dwarf, is placed in stasis as punishment for smuggling an unregistered cat on board. While in stasis, a radiation leak kills the rest of the crew and the ship's Artificial Intelligence, Holly, takes the ship on a course to deep space until the radiation levels drop enough to be safe for humans. Unfortunately, this takes 3 Million years. When Holly brings Lister out of stasis, he finds that he's the last remaining human in the Universe..his only companions being a hologrammatic version of his anal-retentive bunk mate, a neurotic android butler, a humanoid who is the evolved descendant of his cat, and the now-senile Holly. Nothing is safe from the writers of this show...from Jane Austin to the JFK Assassination. If you want to enjoy a ROTFLMAO bit of mind candy, check out "Red Dwarf"!
