The Airwaves

Red Dwarf is one of my favorite TV shows, although it airs very sporadically. Picked up by PBS, I have yet to figure out what the show's schedule is. Fortunately, PBS occasionally runs marathons at which point I can catch up on the series.

In fact, PBS in Seattle ran a marathon showing all of the new episodes when the seventh series finally came out. In addition, they had flown Craig Charles (Lister) and Robert Llewellyn (Kryten) in for interviews and a public forum. It was very cool.

Each series (of which there have been seven, so far) consists of only a handful of episodes. The most recent, seventh series had eight. I must admit that I got hooked on Red Dwarf around the end of the fifth series. Prior to that, I watched it only occasionally. Of course, now that I'm hooked, I would really like to watch the older episodes again!
