Red Dwarf is a comedy show set millions of years in the future, where a man named David Lister (played by Craig Charles) wakes up on a mining spaceship called Red Dwarf after 3 million years asleep, only to find that the entire human race has died out, leaving him as the only survivor. The only company he has is a felinelike human known only as Cat, evolved from a pregnant cat Lister smuggled aboard the ship three million years ago, and a hologram of Lister's dead bunk mate.
