Cat's 'nasal intuition' always struck me as a parody of Counsellor Troi on TNG - the way Picard asks her for an empathic reading of someone on a viewscreen, who is at least thousands of kilometres away.

@JohnDoe-vy6ju 5 ай бұрын

1:30 lol yep, didn't happen but this show is not above that sort of anticlimactic gag, so your concern was well-founded. In the early episodes, Rimmer being an intangible hologram was often a plot-relevant source of pathos and tension. But since S3, as you've certainly noticed, he doesn't really "need" to be incorporeal for any story purposes, and his ghostly form has increasingly been a hassle for them to write around. So, here, they finally write up a way to do away with it permanently. "Aliens" had the technology to give him a body at last, who says Rimmer never gets what he wants? :) The blue alert/red alert changing the bulb joke is a lot of people's nominee for funniest Red Dwarf joke; I know several youtubers have watched that clip as their Red Dwarf introduction

@CyberNatasha 5 ай бұрын

Legion is probably one of my top 5 episodes, the dining scene, whilst being gross, is hilarious. Plus Rimmer becoming a hardlight hologram is very awesome. Next week is also a great episode, it's literally award winning.

@Zayfod 5 ай бұрын

So this series the production crew got access to a relatively cutting edge piece of effects technology called the Video Toaster, which allowed them to do things like have the two Listers sitting next to each other in Psirens without the hard split-screen line between them, and to make the combined Legion face out of actual video footage.

When you get to "Back To Earth", I'd highly recommend watching the Director's Cut where it's all edited together rather than the three individual episodes.

This episode is one of my favourites, the physical "slapstick humour" is quintessentially British and was used a lot in the old sitcoms & Ealing movies from the 1940's. Both writers are huge fans of the Ealing comedies, as well as Laurel and Hardy and shows like Dad's Army, which most UK comedy writers want to emulate in some way. This series is my favourite, mainly because most of the episodes are my favourites, including the upcoming Gunmen of the Apocalypse, which won an Emmy award, the only one given to Red Dwarf. Quarantine from Series 4 is also my favourite, along with Marooned. Shame you don't seem to have liked this series as much as previous ones, will be interesting to see if you like Series 7 because it has divided fans over the years since it was broadcast, as does Series 8. We tend not to mention Series 9, as it was an experiment to see if Red Dwarf was still popular and was just a two part series instead of a full one.

I liked "Legion"... cool concept and we got lots of new improvements out of the Dwarfer's interaction with him. Never been a fan of Cat's "I smell something..." though... nor the reliance on Space Corps Directives as a cheap ongoing gag. It's beneath Grant Naylor's writing IMO. Although it DID pay off with "Quarantine"...
