Red Dwarf

This is the third in my series of obligatory threads (obviously ). Does anyone around here watch Red Dwarf? Nice little British comedy series, many amusing jokes. I love satire, and Red Dwarf satirises Sci-Fi well, don't you agree? I just wish that they'd show the series on Australian television! I haven't seen the show for ages! I find the show a little crude sometimes (as usual), but that seems to be the defining chracteristic of many comedic shows these days. Still, it is definately worth a chuckle or two...

I was rather expecting Duriel to start this thread. He brought up the latest mention of the Esperanto in AoD's "Aye i must also..." thread.

I like the show, just watched five episodes yesterday, and now I'm logging off to watch the last of Season 1. I will be getting Seasons 3&4 when they come out here on DVD.

I also like the show Black Books, just wish it was still played here in the US.

SS has finally reached the coveted title of "Port Commodore". More power to him! . He had to rub it in didn't he? "I just watched five episodes..." I'll get him for that!

I though you get Port Commodore at 1400 and SS has almost 1700. --- VH16

I would so get my nameplate on my desk to read that, if I had a job

Whoever came up with "Mission Commision" should be lined up and shot

I have season 1 and 2 on DVD. And SS has been a Port Comodore for sometime.

I agree on the sS thingy.

And cut the obligatory stuff. that's a stupid word.

I've seen the Red Dwarf a few times, on BBC only tho. They don't show it in Holland. Must be to "Brittish". I can get some jokes, but I'm afraid I miss like 75% of all the "non-visual" jokes.

Edit: Damn spelling.

one of the best comedies in recent years barrie ,charles, jules etc just seem to be perfect for the show
there has been talk of a film for several years but i believe grant/naylor wont let the americans make it and if it happens it will be a british film; this i totally agree with as for it to work it has to have the trademark low budget special effects and british accents its part of its charm

What can I say? I've just noticed SS's rank (it's been a long, hot summer here in Aus).

SS - As for Esperanto, how about this;

Bonvulo alsendi las pordistion - lausajne estas rano en mia bideo - Rimmer.

And I think we all know what that means!

Nickless - Fine, I'll think about not to using the word "obligatory" anymore, but don't hold your breath! Still, of all the annoying things I could be doing, that must be near the bottom of the list...

I must have missed something Arcon, 'cause you ain't makin' no sense, boy! Besides, I ain't no Yank!

Sorry about the above slang, but it's after midnight here, and I'm downloading 30 megs worth of Norton AV Trialware. It's a loooong story.
