Radio Times Readers Choose “Red Dwarf”

“Red Dwarf” is listed as the favorite SF TV show of all-time, according to Radio Times editor Gull Hudson.

3000 readers of the Radio Times voted the SF comedy series, which ran for a decade on BBC2, but hasn’t aired in over 7 years, as the best SF show to have ever been broadcast on television, stealing the crown from “Doctor Who,” which was not even given a place on the ballot because, in the words of Gull, having Who on the ballot was just “too obvious.” So, I would suppose that is his way of saying that regardless of how the vote counting came out, “Doctor Who” really is the best.

Here is the list of the Top 6 Picks:

• First Place — “Red Dwarf”
• Second Place — “The X-Files”
• Third Place — “Lost”
• Fourth Place — “Life on Mars”
• Fifth Place — “Buffy the Vampire Slayer”
• Sixth Place — “Star Trek: The Next Generation”
