Smeggin' yeah! [Posted on 2008-09-17]
145.99 was to good to pass up, glad I didn't fall for the single seasons and got this complete set.

Been waiting for ages... [Posted on 2008-10-09]
I first starting watching Red Dwarf over 15 years ago and have been waiting patiently for the series to come out on DVD here in the US. Finally a complete collection chock full of additional material. Great buy!

FREAKIN' AWESOME [Posted on 2008-10-17]
Most excellent DVD box set. Brings back great memories. Good satire and way better then Monty Python! There, I said it.

Anniversery Edition - All The Shows [Posted on 2008-11-20]
Just out in the UK is a 10 disc anniversary set. Priced at £33.98, so roughly $68 in US currency. If you have a multi region DVD player it may be worth checking the post and packaging charges to the USA. The set comes in a photo album about A4 size. I have only just received the DVDs so am not able to verify the quality of them.

What can I possibly say that hasn't already been said? [Posted on 2008-11-28]
Review Red Dwarf? Me? What can I possibly say that hasn't already been said?

Red Dwarf is one of the best science fiction / situation comedy series ever produced. I tell a lie, it is the best. The situation? Imagine being the last surviving human, nothing funny about that, but set onboard a spaceship some 3 million years into the future with companions that include a creature which evolved from a cat, an over-zealous underachieving holographic crew-mate, a computer with a sense of duty, direction, and humor that's more than just slightly off-center, a sanitation mechanoid that so wants to be human, plus a long lost girlfriend... if you can, imagine what day to day life in such a situation might be like. Got it? Good. Now forget it and instead get ready to laugh until you cry!

I first saw Red Dwarf on our local PBS station. A long-time fan of Doctor Who, Red Dwarf quickly became a favorite of mine. It has remained so all these years later.

You may find yourself trading places with the characters of Red Dwarf, which is to say in it's own weird way the show reflects the struggles, the failures, and the triumphs which make us all human, a credit to its creators. As bizarre as a given situation may be, and some are very bizarre, words like outrageous, absurd, and unreal are routinely redefined by Red Dwarf while at the same time through each (situation) a thread of humanity is woven. Sometimes the thread is frayed, sometimes it is twisted, but it is always evident, making plausible the Red Dwarf Universe.

There haven't been many sci-fi comedy shows made. Red Dwarf defines the genre in a lot of ways. In it's day The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy (another favorite of mine) was just as odd, trail-blazing, and funny as Red Dwarf is today, but with one rather obvious difference between the two, Red Dwarf has the distinction of longevity... running from February 15, 1988 to April 5, 1999.

I needn't say more about the series. Any number of others have summed it up as well or better than I possibly could. I'm just glad I have the complete series on DVD so that whenever I need a good laugh (or need to stop taking life so seriously) I can hang with the boys in the Dwarf. And did I mention how easy amazon.com made it for me to get a complete set of replacement discs when I discovered one in the original set was defective? It was about as easy as it gets.
