Very geeky indeed.

 

I have series 1-6.

 

"Busy, Dave?"

"Well, yeah. I am, actually."

"Oh, then you won't want to know about the two super-light-speed fighters that are tracking us."

"What?!"

"I'll leave you to your bubble blowing, mate."

"No, Hol, come on, come on."

"They're from Earth."

"Three million years away?"

"They're from the NorWEB federation."

"What's that?"

"The North Western Electricity Board. They want you, Dave."

"Me? Why? What for?"

"For your crimes against humanity."

"You what!"

"It seems when you left Earth three million years ago, you left two half-eaten German sausages on a plate in your kitchen."

"Did I?"

"You know what happens to sausages left unattended for three million years?"

"Yeah. They go all mouldy."

"Your sausages, Dave, now cover seven-eighths of the Earth's surface. Also you left seventeen pounds, fifty pence in a bank account. Thanks to compound interest you now own ninety-eight percent of all the world's wealth, but since you've hoarded it for three million years nobody's got any money except for you and NorWEB."

"Why NorWEB? "

"You left a light on in the bathroom. I've got a final demand here for one hundred and eighty billion pounds."

"A hundred and eighty billion pounds! You're kidding!"

"April fool."

"But it's not April."

"Yeah, I know, but I could hardly wait six months with a red-hot jape like that under my belt."

Up until the series where the Red Dwarf went missing it was fantastic, the first Polymorph episode still makes me laugh.

The replacement Kochanski was crap too, nowhere near as fit as Claire Grogan.

The replacement Kochanski was quite fit I thought, however that series completely ruined Red Dwarf. It's charm was the shitty effects so digitally remastering it was a bad idea and a waste of money- the money would have been better served retaining Rob Grant & Chris Barrie's involvement. Bringing back Kochanski was whatever the antonym of a masterstroke is. The whole point of Red Dwarf was that Lister was the last human left

Red Dwarf is one of my all time favourites, don't know if it was because i was a kid at the time or what as I haven't seen it in years, but I can remember more than once being in tears of laughter watching it.

 

the one scene that springs to mind is when Kryton was trying to call Rimmer a smeg-head, and all he can say is Smeeee Heeeee, he pulls these faces that just had me in stitches, in propper pain on the floor, topped off with Rimmer's sarcasm 'I'm a smee?'

I've never seen a series take such a nose dive towards the end! I couldn't believe just how bad it got, and how shit the jokes were.

 

It did deteriorate rapidly after series five but that's nothing compared to the later series of Beavis and Butthead. It's like they wanted to make them shit on purpose.
