In the winter of 1993, American journalist Joe Nazzaro was commissioned by the producers of Red Dwarf to write a behind-the-scenes making-of book about the cult sci-fi comedy series. For nearly two months, Nazzaro was given unprecedented access to the production, from the very first day of location filming to the final audience recording. During that time, he kept meticulous notes on virtually every aspect of the shoot.
Sadly, much of that material was ultimately cut from the book's final draft and has never seen the light of day - until now, that is. Comedy, Chaos and Cowboys! tells the real story of Red Dwarf, from last-minute changes to deleted scenes, as well as more than a few R-rated outtakes. There are also extensive interviews with principal cast and crew members, guest stars and a day-by-day filming diary.
Joe Nazzaro is a veteran entertainment journalist, who's been covering genre film and television for nearly four decades. Previous books have covered Star Trek, Farscape, Blake's 7 and of course, Red Dwarf.
