> > Actually you're quite wrong. Red Dwarf plays very well on American public television, and video sets of the series episodes are commonplace in our video stores. It has a pretty strong cult following here, mostly among tech geeks like myself. (I know the folks over at Apogee are mostly big Red Dwarf fanatics.) Personally, I never got into the show, which is moderately surprising given the amount of British comedy I do like. I probably just haven't given it a good enough chance.

> In my opinion, you have to see the early series. The new ones are ... wellll... *OK*, but once it became popular enough to get funding for things like sets and special effects it just seems to have lost something. Since they dropped Rimmer, changed their minds and brought him back, added Kochanski as a love interest etc etc it's moved away from the insanity and I just feel it's getting a bit too mainstream now.
> I feel the true classics are the old series where it was just Lister, Rimmer, Cat, Kryten and that *ultimate* computer Holly (the male version).
> My only hope in life is that when someone finally perfects a speaking computer they give it Holly's voice. HAL can go suck eggs.

It's cold out side
There's no kind of athmospher
I'm all alone, more or less
I want to fly
Far away from here
Far, Far, Far

I want to lay
Shipwreck and comotose
Drinking fresh mango juice
Goldfish are nibbling on my toes
Fun, Fun, Fun,
In the Sun, Sun, Sun
