@JZ's Best Friend I had to double check the date on your comment; while it might have been more understandable at the time of the original post, I think it's pretty clear that these days we aren't going to see any actual comedy any time soon. Aside from the fact that there isn't any new comedy on tv/ being made in general any that does come out seems to be mindless, watered-down, nonsensical, bland, creatively bankrupt, completely and utterly 'safe', PC, line-toeing garbage with the deliberate overarching aim of being as 'inoffensive' as physically possible, like it was written by a bot not cognisant of what human humour is. Considering the careers that have been ruined by retroactive looks at past work where their material did not pose a political problem (and why is politics telling entertainment what to do anyway) one can see where this paralysing fear of writing anything that could be seen as even remotely edgy comes from. Thus we have to now rely on these past series for our comedy these days if we want it to actually resemble what comedy is supposed to be (for one thing challenging to societal norms and uncaring of what the state thinks of it). Even the world's biggest and most successful comedians (say, Dave Chappelle) who routinely sell out stadiums and tours, have been censored by the networks that initially propelled them to even greater fame (i.e. he was dropped by Netflix) which just highlights the levels of inanity and governmental intrusion on civil liberty and even the arts we have succumbed to. One can only hope this era of soviet-style censorship ends soon before society does become an even more unbearable sad and depressing place

This is one of the funniest scenes ever to be done with Robert Llewellyn. His acting is just perfect and I always get a laugh when I see him doing his funniest lines ever. The sounds he makes at 1:26 and 2:54 are blooming hilarious. I laugh so much whenever I hear those lines. But his laugh at 2:19 is one of the bits that make Kryten lovable 😁.
I'm surprised they haven't interrogated Talky Toaster yet, being so far out in space, coordinates alone would be enough to inform the crew something awfully weird has happened, apart from some of the most incapable crew members turned out to be utterly capable on doing things unheard off. They only had to consult the Starbug logbook.
It was probably just me, but it seemed like the doctor didn’t believe Kryten was really a robot. Just a crazy man who pretended/thought he was one. But then there was that part where they have the software specifically for restoring an android to factory settings. So I never was clear if androids were around during the days of Red Dwarf.
the part where his factory settings were 'restored' was while Kryten was under psychotropic testing. from an outside observer's point of view, the use of the software could have just been a construct created in the scenario that had the crew thinking they're escaping

God, this is a prime example of how off Season 8 was. It’s still funny, just so long as you forget that it’s Red Dwarf. It suddenly turns into a zany ensemble piece set in a prison crossed with Sex Lives of the Potato Men.
It's the episodes that are stretched out over multiple episodes that bring the season down, the rest is still pretty solid. I've trimmed those three first 'Back in the Red' episodes into one a lean 40 minutes. (This scene didn't make it.) Did the same for the two 'Pete' episodes; that time delay when they are in the captain's office is as funny as anything in the previous 7 series.
The fallacy in this season is that the ship's crew would have needed to plot their course, and as soon as they examined the stars to determine their location it would've been immediately clear that the main cast was telling the truth, at least about where and when they were. Also they kept sending the canaries to locations that were clearly from tthe future in relation to their percieved time period. I wondered if the nanobots built some sort of mental block into the resurrected crew. There, I got that nerd out of my system.
It could be they're a bunch of bureaucratic idiots who have protocol shoved so far where the sun (or any other star for that matter) doesn't shine so they don't check the things you mentioned as a matter of course no matter how logical it all is. This all being said also could work. It's a mistake to take human beings for being logical people.
The way I rationalise it is that the ship's situation is being kept a secret by officers, and since the Canaries are all convicts held in isolated conditions there's no risk of any information leaking to the rest of the crew. It's probably not a watertight explanation but it works for me.
@@MrMortull You might have something there, I forget what the Captains original job was but I think he was the guy who distributed ice cream bars to the crew and he's keeping that secret.
If Kryten was from the future, how would they know what the 'factory reset' was and would they have the right cable and 'socket' connector to do it?... 🤣🤣🤣
Details. Technical details for the technicians to figure out. The psychiatrist just gave a recommendation. Everything is easy if you don't have to do it yourself.
Kryten may have been from "the future" but androids, on the whole, cannot have been on the basis of three points: (i) With Holly and their hologram tech - it is clear that they are able to make androids from an AI point of view. (ii) In the episode "Back to Reality", the "reality" that was created included an Cyborg form for Kryten, and nobody questioned whether they would have the tech for it despite that it would have taken them back (even though a dream) to their original time-zone.

I’ve never consulted a psychologist so I’ll just have to take your word for it.

He pulled of the "minminminmini" flawlessly.
'Without him, I'd probably be normal!'
Never understood how the Red Dwarf crew doesn’t realize how far out in space they are. That alone should tell them Kryten is telling the truth.
Plus the fact that Red Dwarf itself has grown in size, which would only be possible with nanotechnology.
Except the cone-head Holly does realise exactly that.
They actually do, they even say that in a scene dedicated to it. It plays into how they set them up (spoilers) to prove their own innocence.
At their revival, no one will realise anything had changed. Only those responsible for piloting the Red Dwarf will find out where they are, the captain probably made a decision to keep it under wraps until they can work out how to break it too everyone.
Knowing holly they were just outside our solar system and had been going around in circles for 3 million years!!

If Kryten was from the future, how would they know what the 'factory reset' was and would they have the right cable and 'socket' connector to do it?... 🤣🤣🤣
Details. Technical details for the technicians to figure out. The psychiatrist just gave a recommendation.
Everything is easy if you don't have to do it yourself.
Kryten may have been from "the future" but androids, on the whole, cannot have been on the basis of three points: (i) With Holly and their hologram tech - it is clear that they are able to make androids from an AI point of view. (ii) In the episode "Back to Reality", the "reality" that was created included an Cyborg form for Kryten, and nobody questioned whether they would have the tech for it despite that it would have taken them back (even though a dream) to their original time-zone.
KRYTEN my favorite character. he is just as good of a liar as i am
