"Certainly not, and I resent the implication that I'm a one dimensional, bread-obsessed electrical appliance" may just be the greatest comeback from a toaster in television history.

She was my favourite Holly as a kid since I didn't really "get" the first two seasons and didn't watch them much. Shame she seems to be totally ignored by the show now when she was such a huge presence throughout its golden era.

Not really. It is a silly trope to depict women as intelligent relative to men, same way it is to depict women as goofy. The point should not be tropes about gender in Western media, you should just have someone who is depicted as feminine but prone to the same unavoidable decay as masculine characters. My criticism is not that you enjoyed Holly depicted as a clever AI woman, but that you think being feminine should retcon the decay mentioned since season 1. Another issue, showing you misunderstand feminism, is that you do not see that people would be annoyed if they made a male version more intelligent, meaning you types are contradicting the goals of equality and therefore the stated core goals of the feminist movement. Women should be depicted as being capable of intelligence, or lack thereof, otherwise a pedestal effect occurs, which is connected to involuntary celibacy when ill young men figure out women are just human and as capable of virue AND defect as men. You are not being orthodox, you are being reactionary. Tut tut.
@@SamMichaelComedyIt is more my criticism of modern leftism, as whether or not you support whatever core values shared by both Anarchists and Marxists, various identity politics issues are too splintered and so are ultimately self defeating, unless used by socialists or tolerated by national socialists who believe in "accelerationism." My home life is fine, but I wanted to criticise you in a way that made absolutely clear I have no problem with intelligent women, but only with that television trope as it has it's origins in reactionary identity politics. I myself am not a Marxist, I lean to the right, but I prefer the Castro ilk of leftist over the modern liberal "yass queen kind." Though my comments may seem bizarre on a clip from a comedy, it would make more sense if you look up "a marxist critique of identity politics", and if you look into how idpol has steadily infected popular culture. If I get even one person to take an interest in sociology and political science I will be happy, even if they only think over this 2 years after calling me a git on the spectrum. This is also covertly satirical and tongue in cheek. Later dudes.

"There is a strong chance that deploying unbuttered breads in times of quantum conflict will result in all of the native primary atmosphere turning into a ceramic compound, not unlike the kind used in the manufacture of sinks, a recognized universal qualifier." hm.. maybe Talkie was from my universe and was looking to make sure Holly hadn't gone crazy and asked for a crumpet without first requesting butter.
IQ of 12386, can perform all kinds of complex astro-navigation, can break lightspeed knows the meaning of life, can't tell the difference between 345 years and 3.45 minutes or figure out how to save herself. seems legit!

According to lister and his smart shoes story it's cruel
Show was way ahead of it's time.
This is one of the most beautiful scenes in television histories.
In the novel Holly switches back on just to tell the toaster to piss off. It was her amusing
Comedy wise the toaster is a work of genius and I've just finished my toast so now where's my crumpet?
Assuming you married her, I'd say at the table with you.
Now that I think about it, Hattie Hayridge was a bit of a crumpet back in those days, especially with her hair tied back.

Did you know the guy doing the voice here is the original actor (David Ross) who played Kryten?
