Red Dwarf - Best season?
Now, for me, the series started to go off the boil in the last couple of seasons when Grant and Naylor had their spat and went their separate ways.
But I still reckon the best seasons were 2 and 3. When the show was more about a comedy that happened to be set in space than the latter seasons which seemed to be more about a sci-fi show that happened to be a comedy.
And Clare Grogan shall always be Kochanski!!!

That's odd. I always thought of them the other way round. The first couple of books are made up from a few episodes with some "new stuff" in between so that it makes sense. Where as the following books seemed more like proper stories that bore a passing resemblance to bits of the series.

Sorry But Clare Grogan is the only Kochanski; anyone else is a pale imitation.
As for the books, I gave up on them after 'Better Than LifeÂ’, as they just seemed like pasted together scripts from the TV show, with no originality.
That's not to say that the later ones are better than the earlier ones, I really love them all, and probably do prefer the first couple. That's just the way I remember them.
And Claire Grogan is the one and only Kochanski! She has that Pinball smile!

I loved series 3 the best and Better Than Life in the books and Chloe Annett as the Kochanski and I'm a woman too, must be somthing in that.
Best all time episode for me, Back to Reality because that was the episode that really got me into Red Dwarf. I really don't find Gunman of Apocolypse that good, maybe appeals more to blokes tat one?

But think about it - this is the woman that Lister will obsess about for the rest of eternity. And Lister, being fair, is a pretty shallow guy. Now, don't get me wrong, Chloe Annett is a lovely looking woman, but can you really see Lister obsessing about her? The way she talks the way she looks, it's not Lister's type.
Now Clare Grogan on the other hand...

Series 1 - 3 were wonderful - I agree with what everyone's said about the 'feel' of the early episodes. I'm amazed that the vids still make me laugh considering I know EXACTLY what's coming along...
And, yeah, it's GOT to be Clare Grogan.

just surfed in from the BBC website - a whole area dedicated to Red Dwarf!
www.bbc.co.uk/comedy/reddwarf !!
Taken from there:
2002 is a big year for Red Dwarf. All eight series are going to be repeated on BBC TWO, a feature film is in production, and there are also rumours of a DVD release. Watch this space...
Jolly good!

I'm on Clare Grogan's side. They completely changed the character when Chloe Annett arrived - instead of being a Liverpool bird, she was a posh daddy's girl, and instead of them never having dated, they had.
Pffrt, retroactive continuity.
The only episode I enjoyed after Rimmer's leaving the crew was 'Blue', not for the song, but the hilarious acting in Rimmer's theme park, and the Rimmer/Lister kiss.

(just to repeat everyone else) Early Red Dwarf was the best! And I agree with Spike and probably a couple of others, the backwards episode was amazing! I remember when I first saw it (I was only lil... so lil I hadn't been allowed to stay up and watch it, I had to get up the next morning(extra early) to watch it!) I laughed soooooooo much! Tee hee *wanders away saying 'NODNOL' do herself...*
