Red Dwarf

So macht man eine Kultserie... Humor an der Grenze zwischen jugendlichem Spaß und intellektuellen Anspielungen, Figuren wie von einem schlechten Trip und eine Geschichte, die nichts aus dem Science-Fiction-Genre heilige ist. Das Duo Lister-Rimmer glänzt wie ein Schleifstein, The Cat verleiht allem ein schneidiges Flair und ein tanzbares Tempo ... und Kryton? Er räumt Rimmers Unterhosen weg. Wer das nicht gesehen hat, hat den Höhepunkt des humoristischen Serienschaffens verpasst... Und landete in der besten... Wie viele gute Serien haben das geschafft? (25.04.2004)

Rimmer allein macht es unmöglich, diese Serie nicht zu lieben… (08.05.2019)

Two stars after the first season, and I don’t know if I want to keep on watching. Insufferable characters, awfully unfunny gags that more often than not cross the boundaries of cringe… I simply don’t understand the cult status of Red Dwarf. (The only thing I really like is the opening theme song.) (14.02.2009)

For a long time, I took this motley group as a safe bet until it finally dawned on me what a gem it is. With each passing year since its creation and with each viewing, Red Dwarf has matured into a cult classic. Both in its understated beginnings and in the almost Dadaistic finish of the classic seasons, as well as in the late adventures of the deserving gentlemen of the crew. And we have long known that Arnold Rimmer is the biggest badass and idiot at the same time. (07.05.2006)

A cult movie that is impossible to forget. Perhaps with the exception of the last season, each episode in this series is incredibly balanced and contains humor with a capital H. All of the dialogs and cool lines are incredibly chiseled to the finest detail. Just like the characters. Particularly the crew of the Dwarf is indescribably... well, it’s really hard to say in words. But when I’m feeling down, all I have to do is play an episode of this and I’m on cloud nine.
