Astute readers will notice that this episode is 2.06, even though its original airdate was the week after “The Way We Weren’t,” causing a few minor continuity problems. If you think everyone is getting along just a little too well after the... Read more
Wow! This was a great episode, and hysterically funny, albeit a little sad at the end. It was interesting to see the extent that John and the others knew exactly what buttons to push, especially John and Aeryn with each other.
Read moreWelp, this was the latest in a long series of stories of this type, from “Star Trek” (the Old Series, of course), to “Logan’s Run.” Not hideously original, but the main story wasn’t too bad. The Rygel subplot was pretty lame, I have no idea... Read more
The first episode or the new series was a cracker! They had a lot to live up to after the perfection of the last episode of Season 5 and they really did a great job. Sex (or at least the kiss of all kisses!), violence and some GREAT... Read more
I can’t think of any science fiction TV show as funny or as innovative. For me, it was perfect!
Read moreThe show opened with an amazing experiment to duplicate a strawberry using an adapted Matter Paddle. The duplicated signal is split three ways, thereby triplicating the object. In this case a strawberry (the last one in the universe according... Read more
This was another fine episode. It opened with the Starbug landing on an icy planet. The crew were there to investigate an abandoned laboratory. They believe that there is one sole survivor, a genius
hologram doctor.
The crew have to justify themselves to….. themselves. Failure to do so will result in their death!
Read moreIt was great to see Rimmer’s character challenged in this episode. We all know what a git he can be. But as we and Nirvana suspected, he may be something more than a complete Smeghead!
Read moreThis episode is my favourite Red Dwarf episode (yep, another perfect score incoming!). It’s the story of a meeting with a Gestalt Entity – a composite of the Red Dwarf crew!
Read moreThis GREAT show opened with Rimmer playing a Sam Spade character in an AR computer simulation game. Little did he know that later in the day, he would have to play a cowboy game to stay alive!
Read moreLister marries a Gelf but then ‘does a runner’. The Gelf’s family take revenge on the Red Dwarf crew by afflicting them with an Emohawk
Read moreThis was a moany, wishy-washy episode that tried to establish Kochanski as a creditable character – but it missed out all the parts of the Red Dwarf Saga that we had come to know and love. Chloe Annett is a wonderful actor that has been... Read more
He’s Arnold, Arnold Arnold Rimmer,
Without him life would be much grimmer,
He’s handsome trim and no-one’s slimmer,
He will never need a Zima.
(hahaha – it should have been a hit single!)
The next main character of the Red Dwarf Crew makes an entrance. CK turns out to be a very popular actress in the role and fans warm up to her pretty quickly.
Read moreThis episode was terrific! (except that it was the last complete episode we saw Rimmer in Season 7). In this episode, we saw the return of Ace Rimmer and again, some fairly mind-blowing comedy sci-fi.
Read moreThe dude on the grassy knoll! No way, seriously, you ain’t gonna believe it! Red Dwarf starts a new season with a vengeance!
Read moreThis was the last show in the series, and boy, was it a cliffhanger! – The Red Dwarf crew meet themselves from then future!
Read moreBesides the obvious fun of watching the antics of a world full of Rimmers, the jokes and one-liners in this episode were terrific!
Read moreIn this episode we are introduced to Ace, a heroic Rimmer what a guy!) and that immortal phrase, “Smoke me a Kipper, I’ll be back for breakfast.” The character is sooooo cheesy that you just can’t help warm to him.
Read moreScience, comedy, concept – all awesome. A near perfect score for a near perfect example of good science fiction comedy!
Read moreAnother classic episode in which Rimmer is accused of manslaughter and heroically defended by Kryten.
Read moreA marvellous episode in which Kryten gets a chance to be human. Although his spare heads seem less that comfortable with the idea (especially the one with Droid Rot).
Read moreVery poignant, clever and fun show. This is the love interest episode where the crew meet their ideal partners – actually played by their real life partners (excepts Cat’s of course).
