I LOVE this show, one of the funniest shows ever in my opinion. If you've never seen it heres a quick run down:
The Red Dwarf is a deep space mining ship owned by the Jupiter Mining Corporation. Crew member Dave Lister is locked in stasis when a radiation leak kills the entire crew.(How and why this happened is hilarious.)
Three million years later he wakes up to discover he's all alone, floating aimlessly in deep space. Later he finds out that he's the last surviving member of the human race.
His only company is the ships computer, a hologram of Arnold J. Rimmer (his old roommate on board), and a creature called "Cat" who evolved over time out of his pregnant cat. Later on they find the android "Kryton" who also joins the crew.
This show is friggin' hilarious, I could go on and on describing how funny it gets. Basicaly Dave is just a space bum who spends his days smoking, eating, and drinking beer. Even though it's a Sci-Fi comedy it's also very detailed and well written, Stephen Hawkings is even a Red Dwarf fan heh.
Any other Red Dwarf fans out there?

lol..I used to watch this some time. But I have to tell ya, my favorite British shows were Benny Hill and The Goodies! I know this has nothing to do with sci-fi, but I just thought I'd mention it lol.

Red Dwarf? Smoke me a kipper I'll be back for breakfast. 8 series so far......... Was gonna be a USA version but it got no further than the pilot...... Was gonna be a movie but talks have stalled..... Any idea whether it's coming back Nexus? All I've got is rumour and I get the impression it might be over....... Which would be a great shame as it was the best scfi comedy show ever bar none. Truely great show. Craig Charles(Lister) is currently starring in a very popular British soap opera"Coronation Street".

From what I've heard the movie is dead in the water...which sucks bigtime, I was really excited about it. I'm kinda glad they didnt go forward with the American version, it would have sucked lol. NOTHING can compare to the original. I have seasons 1-4 on DVD, need to get the rest soon.
