Red Dwarf: Season 2, Episode 1 Kryten

Nell Sun

One thing I keep noticing in these old Red Dwarf episodes is the use of the term "on line". i.e. 'Rimmer's back on-line'; or Holly says "I've been off-line for a few hours". Several years before the internet. I can't remember what I thought of that when I originally watched it; it probably just washed over me but sounded like it made sense....

Oh wow, well that is good that he has gotten better.

Not sure if you know this, Josh but the actor that plays Lister, Craig Charles was addicted to crack for a few years whilst working on one of the most popular soaps over here. He eventually got help and went into Rehab several years ago and is now a DJ on national radio.

The great way to think about it in my opinion is that season 2 is like season 1 but better, season 3 is like a different show and far better.

Dave Barratt

The Esperanto language was a bit of a thing with Red Dwarf, if you look on the walls of the corridors they have the name in English and in Esperanto as they thought it sounded like a potential universal language the entire world could use

After Work Reactions

Awesome man I will have to check that out some time I don't think I have heard of that show.

After Work Reactions

Christopher Horner

Definitely a different vibe with this series. It's still not fully into its stride but is a huge improvement on season one.

The award winning soap opera “Androids” is based on the Australian soap Neighbours which has aired in the UK for decades. It starred Kylie (Minogue, pop singer). I don’t think she really broke the US with her singing career but is probably more well known for playing Cammy in a so bad it’s almost good movie (Street Fighter, 1994)

i like this episode a lot good start to a second season i didn't realize how old shows like this and only fools and horses are i realized looking up lister that he played (as an older man) a character in a british show i used to watch with my parents called coronation street funny how u dont recognize someone when their younger

As other have said, this is when it starts to get into the groove, but you're still a season away yet until it gets really good. #notmyKryten

Gareth Jones

It sounds fine to me but I'd be interested in Josh's take on it. It could be a bit like us watching Daphne and her family on Frasier

Gary Tamblyn

Not seen this Kryten before, He definitely improves once Robert takes over.

Old Kryten was creepy looking lol. Glad series 1 is over ;)

Tony Smyth

When Kryten finally realised that something was wrong and responded with the phrase, "Oh my God!", ...PRICELESS!

Claire Prowse

Ohh dear I forgot how shoddy the old kryten was😂 but yes it does start picking up pace from season 2 onwards...didnt realise how unfunny season one was mind you I first watched it 30 years ago!! Still like it though!

This Kryten is horrifying.

I’d be curious what everyone thinks of Danny John Jules false American accent, is it accurate or too comedic?

Congratulations on getting through the first Season. :) This season's episodes are still a bit low key compared to later ones, but they're a lot more entertaining than S1. I think this has been mentioned before, but the Kryten in this episode is a different actor to the one that comes in from Season 3 onwards, and isn't very good. So don't worry if you don't get on with the character, as Robert Llewellyn is so much better as Kryten.

Paul Bibby

yup , it now ramps up big time !!!!! you will be hooked

Scott sage

Starts to pick up this season next onward is the red dwarf people know it as
