Red Dwarf is great - series 2-6 were its peak for me. It played with sci-fi concepts in an intelligent way and the humour came from the people.

It was originally pitched as 'The Odd Couple in Space' I believe if that gives you a feeling for the dynamics between the main 2 characters, a stuck up deadpan snarker and a slobbish loveable rogue
