What A Cartoon! - Red Dwarf "Gunmen of the Apocalypse"
A whole decade before Futurama wowed Fox viewers with its masterful mix of sci-fi and comedy, BBC Two launched Red Dwarf, an outer space version of The Odd Couple set three million years in the future. And, over the course of the last 30-plus years, this cult hit evolved beyond its simple sitcom premise and has seen plenty of planet-hopping adventures, alternate realities, doppelgangers, computer simulations, and GELFs. On this episode of What A Cartoon, join us as we hop 'cross the pond and explore Red Dwarf: the series that embiggened our vocabularies with words like "smeg," "goit," and "gimboid."
