Hey! Hey you! Yeah, all you smegheads! (Hehe)
Keep your eyes peeled and notifications on cause you might be suuuuper excited come time tomorrow at 12 pm PDT 👀✨️
Cant wait for you guys to get through these, a much underrated series!
The only criticism I have is you guys have the Dwarf audio so low compared to yours that I have to crank the volume but when you guys start to speak it comes blasting in full volume.
Is it gonna be Gazpacho Souper?🙊
Can't wait! 😁
Gals From the Dwarf
The Dog's Milk joke is the moment I realised I'd be a Dwarfer for life. Even after hearing it a hundred times, it still cracks me up :D
Oh saaame here mate.😂
"Lasts longer than any other type of milk, dog's milk."
"Why?"
"No bugger'll drink it."
AMAZING.
Full of vitamins, full of marrowbone jelly
That joke was in the first book, and it might have gotten the biggest laugh out of me. (I watched the series out of order, so I read the book before I saw S1-2.)
Edit: Also - "You're *THAT* sure they're dead?"
Y'know... that joke stands out for me too way back in the day !
5:10 Rimmer is trying to learn Esperanto. If you can make it out in the background, a lot of Red Dwarf's signage is in English and Esperanto.
The joke of course is that Esperanto was designed to encompass many of the traits and similarities of the Latin-based languages without the annoying nuances as a means of bringing many people together in a wide-spread communication method, and thus it is supposedly one of the easiest languages to learn.
Which is why our pal Big Man is absolutely useless at it.
@@chrismaverick9828however you can probably make yourself understood anywhere with English and some French and Spanish
@@richardhall6034 So... Esperanto...?
The strike gave you all an unexpected hit. I am so glad you all are watching this, no matter how it happened
Let's hope they stick with it now the strike is ended.
@@noneofyourbeeswax01The SAG-AFTRA strike hasn't ended and that's the one that matters directly to Paula and Kat.
@@jasperdevries1726 Ok didn't know that, thanks
"My god I was only away two minutes!" CLASSIC scene!
The novelization tells the backstory of the Nova 5. A fleet of Nova ships was sent out to literally cause novas so that seen from Earth, the exploded stars would spell "Pepsi" and end the cola wars forever. I think Nova 5 was supposed to dot the i.
You've remembered it wrong. The message that would burn in the sky of of Earth for a full week was 'Coke Adds Life'.
Saatchi, Saatchi, Saatchi, Saatchi & Saatchi guaranteed Coca Cola it would bury PepsiCo in the cola market.
There's irony to 'Adds Life' killing off multiple solar systems.
Aye and it crashed because Kryten had washed the navigation computer's internals with lots of hot soapy water.
I really liked this Kryten. Latecomers to the show won't get it but for those of us who watched from the beginning, this was the original Kryten and even though he only had 1 episode and Robert llewellin made the character his own, I'll always have a soft spot for the original.
I love the series 3+ stuff, but I mean, the earlier stuff has it own charm. Totally respectable opinion. This show thrived on its low budget and wonkiness.
its ok, he also plays the talkie toaster.....
Totally agree with your second point. In fact Series 2 arguably has the best character development of the entire run.
For a few episodes you may be thinking ‘wait, where’s Kryten?’ - don’t worry… Once he returns then the magic truly starts!
No spoilers please, Respect their journey.
"You're that sure they're dead?"
" Yeeesss!!!! "
"...What about this one?"
In terms of their reaction to Lister preparing for being on the pull; can't wait for "Parallel Universe" ( fans will know)
There are over 1,000 floors on Red Dwarf, so it's easy to go to a new area.
Sorry if someone's already said this. The reason for the more clearer look of Holly is, in Series 1, Holly had only a voice to interact with the crew. His face wasn't meant to appear on the set screens and monitors. But the actor insisted it did.
But they were halfway through filming. So for the scenes where his head doesn''t appear, they shot all new footage of just it in low res to make it appear simulated and inserted them in.
After that they decided to stick with this way of him interacting with the crew.
It's even funnier once you realize the name they used "lister". The same last name as dr Joesph Lister the pioneer of antsieptic surgery. The mouth wash Listerine is named after him.
The channel ‘Dave’ is named after him too
Kryten becomes so popular that when they later did two US pilot films for an American version of Red Dwarf, Kryten's actor was the only one they brought over to re-create his character!
actually, they tried to get the cast, but he was the only one willing to do it. Craig Charles was like, "Why? I'm already doing Red Dwarf."
not this particular Kryten actor tho.
For probably 10 years now, I always wondered what the hell is Rupier and how does it taste and only just know I realized that people are actually saying Root Beer. What the hell. 😀
Right away you can see there's been quite a jump up in quality compared to season 1. There's a clear sense that the budget has gone up, the actors have gotten a lot more comfortable with their roles, and the tone's shifted towards a more wacky and irreverent tone and resulted in a much funnier show. This one episode alone is just packed with great jokes - Lister's art college tenure, the start of Rimmer's alien obsession, dog's milk, "less meat on them than a Chicken McNugget", and of course Kryten's act of rebellion at the end. Everyone highlights season 3 as the beginning of the show's golden age, but I think season 2 is a really strong one too, and I'm looking forward to your reactions to the rest of it.
By the way, don't get too concerned over whether to say "season" or "series", we use those words quite interchangeably here in the UK. The only show where we get pedantic over it is Doctor Who, and even then it's only to differentiate the classic show (which uses "seasons") from the new one ("series")
The point is not what term the general public use but what broadcaster's use. The industry standard if you like. And UK shows use Series. Except of course Doctor Who. The reason classic Who did that was because the number of episodes in each 'series' was much higher than the usual shows for the era.
I've never heard anyone here call it season. I wouldn't say it was at all interchangeable. Though obviously we know they mean the same thing
I’d say Rimmer’s alien obsession began in series 1 and was explored with Waiting for God
Lister getting dressed in all his least smeggy things, and the reveal about the women having less meat on them than a chicken McNugget, are some of the funniest scenes in the entire series. Trust me, Kryten will be back in a slightly different form, but just as loveable.
I think our use of series goes back to when series were called serials. So this would be series 2 of the serial Red Dwarf
After this you maybe wondering where Kryten is. Official reason is that this episode was broadcast out of order. This episode was meant to be the last in series 2 but BBC 2 broadcast it first. So in the remastered DVD release, there was a extra scene added with Kryten jetting off in to space on listers space bike. The Red Dwarf novel infinite welcomes careful drivers and sequel book Better than life. Which covers the first 3 series and its a really good read or listen, goes into a lot more detail about this.
No spoliers, but surely the actual episode 6 had to be the last of the series?
@Chorleypie not originally, it was to be kryten. It was said in several interviews, conventions, etc.
ive modelled my life on Dave Lister... being a slob is great! lol
I've been waiting for this. Your Red Dwarf reactions are my favourite thing about Thursdays. 😊
Actually, I believe that's Esperanto. If you notice, signs on the Red Dwarf are often duel labled in English and Esperanto.
All last SERIES, you were all "When we gonna get a new crew member?" We've all been waiting on this episode to see your reaction!!! We knew he was coming! Ladies, meet "Kryten"! He's such a Lovable oddball character on the show, also One of the reasons why Red Dwarf got such a big following SERIES 2 - on!
You know in Britain we've known about season meaning series since Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and they get used pretty interchangeably here now too, so don't sweat the small stuff!
I'd say its more likely we were aware of seasons from Cheers or Dallas both were popular in the UK
I think it was gazpacho soup on the bunk. Lister was explaining while you talked over it, that he only does it because bugging rimmer is his only reason to live. Holly has told him in the novel series that Rimmer was the chosen hologram because the friction would keep lister alive in a universe where he is in fact the only living human left.
Nothing about Gazpacho in this episode. Lister was breeding a mould called Albert in a mug to annoy Rimmer.
Lol adding the "Americans React" is a stroke of SEO genius
"My God! I was only away two minutes!" my favourite moment from this episode! XD
Love your reactions!
You are going to have to make your peace with Lister's slobbiness- it's a fundamental part of his character and running joke- the last known human to exist is a complete slob and a 'nobody'... and yet he fully represents all us of us in some ways.
Episode 1 now the 2nd most viewed video on the channel, I’d say it’s doing well!
If you want more Red Dwarf content, Series 1-8 each have an hour documentary that were made for the DVD release that are worth a watch if you like behind the scenes stuff
Nice to see Kat back in religious garb.❤😂
Irony of 'Androids' being made by robots giving WGA strike over AI scripts.
Gareth Gwenlan, producer of 'Only Fools and Horses', turned down the opportunity to make Dwarf. The writers saw him as playing safe.
Norman was always against the black screen but they removed the filter.
Kryten - named after 'The Admirable Crichton'. Lowest rank has the most skills.
Director's wife (American comedienne Ruby Wax) commented to the writers " and you said you couldn't write for women."
The make up is an interesting view on uncanny valley - looks human but is obviously a machine.
I love watching newbies' reactions to Red Dwarf, another youtuber did a series a few years ago and I was totally there for it. Really enjoying yours so far, I hope you do all 12 seasons/series. Enjoy series 2, there's lots of good episodes here, just don't get too used to Kryten... yet.
You mentioned about the sets getting a bit of 'glow up', the creators hated how grey and drab the sets looked in series 1 so they tried to brighten it up a bit for series 2, you'll notice things like the bolts on the walls being painted blue, and the decorations in the bunk room like the inflatable banana and the American licence plates just to add some colour and break up the grey. The remodeled 'control room' I think was explained by calling it the 'science room' or something like that, as opposed to the 'drive room' which was the control room in series 1. All in all series 2 is a strong improvement over series 1, but things really get going next season... I mean series.
I always thought the bit with the coffee table and the curtains was a little dig at the BBC heads, who initially insisted this was a MOR sitcom with middle class trappings.
Kryten's design changes radically in future episodes and is much less creepy. He also is played by a different actor entirely. He becomes a hilarious addition to the crew of the JMC "Red Dwarf" and is just a completely lovable character.
Look Holly decimalizing the octave system was just a brilliant concept for a throw-away joke. " Do Re Mi Fa So La Wo Bo Ti Do." But the brilliance is that over three million years a ship AI can go a little peculiar. It was the small little jokes Rob Grant and Doug Naylor put in to demonstrate this rather than just using exposition that makes this show so fantastic. And Norman Lovett's delivery back in those first few series was brilliant ! Just you Galifrey Gals wait !
The British actor Kenneth More starred in a movie in the 1950s about a ship-wrecked survivor group, all of whom were posh except him - he was their butler, and excelled at survival things. The film was called "The Admirable Crichton".
As to the "new look" - the BBC bought them a new tin of paint that wasn't battleship grey and the real Red Dwarf was born. Kryten and Star Bug will return...
The television networks would all release their news shows in the Fall. This was mainly due to the fact that most early television was produced in New York City and a lot of the early talent came from both radio and Broadway. In New York the so-called theater season begins in the fall and so did television production. That's how we started referring to television as having "seasons."
I have listened to a few RD audiobooks and Chris Barrie is a very good reader. He is really good at all the voices.
Impersonation was his bread and butter before Red Dwarf. He was a mainstay in Spitting Image.
Even Rimmer's????
@@cybertenchi82 Thanks, I never knew he was part of Spitting Image!
@@Johnny_Socko He was always Ronnie Reagan.
@@ajivins1I can hear it in my head. So obviously him now. Thanks for that.
The actor that plays Kryten in his episode is also the voice of Talkie Toaster .
Future voice of Talkie.
Last season was ex magician John Lenahan.
One thing to note: the characters were summed up by their writer's as 1 self absorbed, 2 the poet, 3 sarcastic impressions.
I will let you decide which is which.
I love Kryten! When I was a kid in the late 80s watching this on PBS, I thought he was american or canadian, the later actor anyways, and I swear, on PBS, kryten showed his middle finger and it wasn't sensored, I know on UK tv it's no big deal but as a kid it was awesome to see. Keep the reactions up! Love em!
@@johnd6487 Nice, thanks for sharing, I remember that episode, laughed til my chest hurt, their in for a treat if they press on, peace!
The Dog's Milk joke was the best ever !
Speak as you speak. If anyone is interested they will take the time to understand you. If they don't then don't worry about them. It isn't like we're talking about a whole different language here.
Kryton does not appear again until season 3 and being played by a different actor. (the brilliant Robert Llewellyn).. As others have noted Season 3 is the start of the classic era of Red Dwarf...
Omg the sound levels are so much better! Thank you!
I'm still at the start of the video, but that's not Spanish. It's Espernato. I always thought when they made up this language they took a lot of Romance language constructs. Although, tbh, I only tried to learn Esperanto once, for about an hour.
I think that was one of the criticisms of Esperanto at the time -- it was an entirely new, made-up language that was *supposed* to be universal, but it was constructed almost exactly like Spanish, Italian, and French.
Having grown up watching and loving this show, it's great to see you guys enjoying it so much. Plus now you'll finally encountered Kryten, I found it hilarious that Patrick Stewart slated the show thinking that Kryten was a mockery of Data in Next Generation, until later he was informed that Red Dwarf predated Next Generation by a couple of years
Red Dwarf didn't predate Next Generation, what are you talking about? Next Gen's first episode aired in 1987, Red Dwarf's first episode aired in 1988.
As much fun as it is to watch this show, it's even more fun to watch someone else watch it. 😄
Because of course the cat has a gold space suit.
I used to have all these series on dvd you could listen to the commentary from some of the cast talking about what they would get up too, there were some pretty funny stories but apparently chris barrie and craig charles didn't get on for at least for a few series. When they were being picked up and taken to filming locations they had a crate of beer under the seats in the mini bus.
Without spoiling anything, any questions you might have from season... um... sorry... "series" 1 😄 and any new questions you might have from "series" 2 as you watch through it... there is a wrap up prologue in the series 3 opener that answers so much. When you get there, you might want to look up the text online beforehand because in the episode it goes by just a bit quickly. 😉 Loving your reaction videos.
That's been prepared for 🙂
I don't know what you're talking about, I found the opening crawl to be very reasonable & informative!
The Chicken McNugget comment was blanked to just "Chicken __Nugget" in the DVD version because McD's threatened to sue them for claiming the McNuggets had no meat shortly after the original run. I remember it on the PBS import playbacks and you can clearly see it being mouthed.
The budget is definitely higher for this series and the stories are more ambitious. As you've already surmised, Kryten will be back (eventually). Incidentally, he is named after the titular butler in the J. M. Barrie play, The Admirable Crichton.
I'm learning all sorts of stuff today. I wonder if that was the same inspiration behind the snooty robot "Creighton" (same pronunciation) from the US "Buck Rogers" series in the early 80s.
The reason we say series instead of season in the UK is because we only have one season. The rainy season.
I know they’re probably trying to reference Rebel Without A Cause, but when Kryten is leaving on the bike at the end, he looks a hell of a lot like Rob Halford from the live performances of Hell Bent For Leather
Ok first of all... Doctor Who, the original, you might say - was referred to as Seasons. I'm sure of that, because nerdy 15yo me had a card catalogue to keep track of which novels I'd collected (hey, there was 150-something of them, I needed help remembering) and I wrote "Season One", etc. And I would have based that on any one of the various Doctor Who information books that I had on my bookshelf. I always thought that "Series" was US speak!?
Anyways - Kryten is amazing! :) The actor was also the voice of Talkie Toaster. And yes, btw - as soon as I saw the views you got on the first Red Dwarf episode, I was pretty sure you'd keep going! Give your fans what they want! :) And as for people hate-watching you - forgive them. Nothing annoys them more. :)
Not 20 secs into the video and I've already clicked the like button 😂
I like the idea that every series/season of Red Dwarf is its own similar but parallel reality. It explains away all the continuity (not that that thats an issue unless you want it to be) and gives an in universe reason why the production values change so drastically every series
They actually had the same money for s2; but they spent a lot in s1 on the Red Dwarf model which they didn't need to in s2. In addition it was partially a conscious choice in S1 to make the set look like a freight ship and therefore not pretty. It failed as painting wood battleship grey looks like wood painted battleship grey not like a metal hull. So in S2 they tried to brighten up existing sets with more vivid colours. Such as the inflatable Banana.
The cast commentary for this episode (which i watched everytime i did the episode itself growing up) goes into how showing the audience the punchline before the characters made the joke so much more impactful.
(Mainly commenting to feed the algorithm and recomend the dvd cast commentary to anyone who will listen, love this series!)
I miss how good it was to have a live studio audience and their reactions!! Genuine laughter!! As for Lister's filthiness . . . get ready!!
Live studio audiences can add to both the performance and the recording. Although it does have it's challenges, the finale of this season demonstrates one of them, in that sometimes the audience laughs so hard the actors have to wait to say their lines.
Laugh tracks just indicate that something is supposed to be funny and are often added on based not on a group opinion but on one person's sense of humor.
I like it when he irons his sneezes.
I'm British and I don't mind you saying Season instead of Series. It's a better word anyway. Thank you for these reactions, so much fun
I was a Dwarfer from “confidence and paranoia”, I was up in the air until then but that just got me! 😂
Kryten... stick a pin in that right there.
I thought this was episode 6, not 1! Shows you how your memory can't always be trusted. (But really, it makes more sense my way). Consider this a prequel to the classic lineup!! #RedDwarfBoys !!
It kind of does, actually. You've just got the S2 cliffhanger.
"This android is crazy."
So he should fit in fine.
Kat, I know you don't want to watch DS9. But there's a meme on there about root beer that just tickles me to hear you mention it. I'll just say Starfleet would approve, but maybe not some other aliens.
So glad they are keeping going with Red Dwarf
Kryten's rebellion scene is hilarious!😄😄😄
Little did the BBC know at the time , just how big Red Dwarf would become! Keep up the great work ladies!! 😀👍
Huzzah, series two, and the introduction of mk. 1 of my favorite character!
Krytie is the unusual heart of the show at times, because he's fresh and clean with it. His brief talk with Lister about his dreams is my favorite kind of science fiction; what will robots become in our absence, and if you'll indulge the mind a bit, his mention of a garden that he made had me remembering a quote from Lord Buckley. “The flowers, the gorgeous, mystic multi-coloured flowers are not the flowers of life, but people, yes people are the true flowers of life, and it has been a most precious pleasure to have temporarily strolled in your garden.”
That-that's chaos theory, yeah..
The fact he says they cant be his because they bend is the whole point xD its called good writing ;D
Fun fact: Kryten's ship, the Nova 5, before the crash was on a mission to detonate a sun, exploding it in the shape of a popular soft drink logo, forever winning the Cola Wars 😅
The whole season/series malarkey isn't really a big thing, there may be some who get energised by it, but there are very few of them. It's generally a cultural thing - British broadcasts have traditionally had around six episodes per run, whereas the norm for NBC/ABC/CBS would have been about 26, so half the year, a veritable season
Lister getting ready does remind me of quite a number of guys I've meet while going out in the 90's and early 2000's..... You know what, I don't really miss being young.
That's crazy, I thought I'd seen all of these growing up, I didn't realise there was an earlier Kryten character before Robert Llewellyn who, lets face it, defined the character. This was just bizarre.
A TV show is called a TV series, however within a series there are seasons and episodes of a season. So you were right Kat to use the term season.
They redesign the areas of the ship and the shuttles a lot. I think every series.
When this second series was filmed and produced it was known for production reasons as Series 2; however, the week before this episode aired the name of series effectively changed thanks to the release of that weeks "The Radio Times" (The UK equivilent of the US TV guide for BBC TV and Radio channels at the time). They had listed the series/episode as Red Dwarf II, and carried on listing it as such for the remainder of the series. The writers Rob Grant and Doug Naylor (aka Grant Naylor) liked this so much the reformatted the series going forward so they all used the Roman Numeral format.
The new 'Bridge' set is still meant to be the same drive room from season 1 but seen from the opposite side. Clearly it's not since the proportions are off but yeah. As for Kryten, hopefully this doesn't count as a spoil but although he does become a main cast member in Season 3, he's gone for the rest of season 2 (apparently he spent a few months touring the Cargo decks on Listers bike). It's implied when he returns in Season 3 that he's always been there, he just doesn't show up in any further S2 episodes.
I just love you guys. I love redwarf Thursday
Yeah, it's fun rewatching the whole thing again with a totally different perspective, everyone I know has seen it all.
Sorry for the second comment, but you've made me wonder...Could the soup Kryten threw onto Rimmer's bunk have been gazpacho soup? It's clearly tomato based, something I've never really notice my decades of viewing, and it would be a nice little easter egg from last season.
Elements of Spanish but the language is meant to be Esperanto. A constructed language made around 1870 5:29
I’ve started to adopt season because of the multinational nature of entertainment
You will find out about Ace Rimmer. Eventually. That is all.
They might even change their outro to a certain catch phrase
That root beer is so good, very heavy on the wintergreen. Sadly, only for sale at the most expensive grocery store for me.
Krypton gets better, glad you're sticking with it because it's a properly loved cult classic here.
Strap in for a wild ride lol .
"And you love us!" - reminds me of one of the cockiest lyrics I've ever heard:
"We Luv that you luv us and you know it!" from 'We Luv U' by Grand Theft Audio.
I have no idea how the lead singer ever delivered that line with a straight face...
Reminds me of Sally Field's acceptance speech at the Oscars.😄
They change Kryten’s actor and look, that’s when it gets really good
I like this new guy. I feel like if a kitchen appliance had a voice, this is what he'd sound like.
It's a shame he leaves the ship after rebelling, who knows what they could have done with him if he'd stayed for the season.
as you can tell from my profile pic Ive been waiting for this! I hope your enjoying this show and the intro to the weirder side of british humour, the gross smeggy stuff really comes from our love of toilet humour so i'm afraid its not going to ease up but at least from here on in your going to get additional characters showing up
Sadly we don't see Kryten again until next season, but he becomes a regular then, and Lister is constantly trying to help him out with rebelling, but also allows Kryten to at least keep things a normal level of clean.
Fun fact; one of the robots in the soap opera Kryten is watching at the beginning was played by British comedian Tony Slattery.
One thing that might not be clear, just from watching it, the background lore of the show is that in this future, Esperanto, the artificially constructed "international" language, somehow became the interstellar _lingua franca._ That's why Rimmer has been trying to learn it since -season- series 1, and that's why many signs around Red Dwarf are written in English and Esperanto, like the "Level/Nivelo" signs denoting the deck number.
The new room you were talking about was the cockpit of the shuttle that they used to leave Read Dwarf and land next to the crashed ship. I forget the name of this ship, but later on, they'll be using the distinctive, green "Starbug" for their excursions.
The best thing about these is that there are SO many better episodes than what you've already seen. Like LOADS better. Series 4 and 5 have some of the very best, and there are so many more characters to come. This isn't even the best Kryten.
I don't know if it's familiar over in America but the Androids soap opera and the theme is a parody of the longest running australian soap "Neighbours".
I'm loving how much fun you two are having with this show.
This series has some of the greatest, funniest moments of all of Red Dwarf. I think it's my favourite overall.
Yay! You gave season 2 a chance. Oh my... I might be in for a ride.
Kryten is Data late in the day with extra Smeee Heee. Here in the UK we also that like that Kat drinks 'root beer' and Paula likes 'mixed nuts'. We just do lager and nuts.
So happy to see you carried on with this series. As for the series vs season thing, I'm British and I use series for the whole of Red Dwarf and season for each group of episodes, I think that may be quite common now rather than using the same word for both and making everybody confused
I can not tell you how much I am enjoying these reactions. Much love and keep on keepin on J.
Glad we saw your reaction to seeing the 4th cast member. They changed up his makeup and outfit when real character
