It was on fire when I laid down on it.
I really don't care for much in the way of science fiction anyway, for instance I don't much care for Star Trek or Star Wars. But Red Dwarf is just not funny to me and I know it's supposed to be. For the record, I find many other UK comedies to be funny, but not that one!
Twilight Hue
Twilight, not bright nor dark, good nor bad.
Like that fella who has to change the light bulbs.

Ehhh... Rimmer as a character doesn't have any redeeming qualities, but I wouldn't say he's unsympathetic. There's deeply rooted reasons he's such a weasel
What do you think of Dwight Schrute from The Office? Like Rimmer he's a narrow minded suck up who's always trying to get power. Neither of them have redeeming qualities

Woke gremlin
I like Fawlty Towers, it is not bleak like Red Dwarf
I also rate Keeping Up Appearances

I love Mr. Bean too. And whatever that other one is that he's in. Black Adder.
Yes those are funny!

That's up to you, but given that you aren't a fan of the show altogether I'd think there's not much I could say that would convince you. Even though Rimmer is my favorite character on the show, what makes him so good is the comedic chemistry he has with everyone else on the show. Rimmer the anal retentive insecure smeg head, Lister the slobbish space hippy who stops at "an attempt was made," cat the... Well... Cat, and Kryten the space robot servant learning to break his programming by following Lister's bad example
Another really great show! The American one is better, imo

Oh I love the British one myself. I think the American one has been on for more seasons though. Have you seen the IT Crowd? I think it's hilarious!
I'm aware of it and understand the premise
But I've never watched it properly, only bits and pieces here and there
I loved it and have watched the repeats on Dave a couple of years ago where my children got hooked on it.
Cat was wonderful and caught evolved cat to a tee.
