I do agree that 6 feels a slight step down from series 5 but it was a hard target to hit. At the time, I loved this season as a 15 year old. It looked good, was funny and was endlessly quotable. During lock down, I did a Red Dwarf marathon with my wife and found 6 wasn't as good as I had previously found it. Still enjoyed it but not as much. Maybe because we were binge-watching a series I had previously only seen weekly, it felt a little repetitive. Apologies to the Americans out there, but the format seemed to be veering towards that of the standard sit-coms that flooded UK TV at the time. So you have a format that spreads the jokes/action between the cast a la Friends. A bit too formulaic in the way it is structured though not in the content (Friends would have been 100 times better if Rachael they were being terrorised by a Geneticially Engineered Life Form). So you get Cat's jokes about fashion in each ep. Rimmer and Kryten's exchanges around the Space Corp Directives. Time filled with some joke about the supply situation. It is still funny, the concepts are good but something just feels a little..... off? I think the US pilots had been done before this season so wonder if that had any impact on their thinking? Also, fast reaching the number of eps so it could be syndicated in the US as well. I think Doug was more keen on exploring the US options than Rob so wonder if this was another bone of contention in their relationship. Happy to be corrected if wrong.

One of my favourite episodes of Red Dwarf. Such a great concept. Love the blue alert joke. Just the way Kryten turns around to look at the light makes me laugh. Then the zero g oral sex joke and changing the bulb and Rimmer's frustrations. Classic.

It's the first one I remember walking in on my parents seeing. I distinctly remember seeing Legion, and hearing his big dramatic speech - when I later heard about "Kryten, the android character" I assumed that's who he was.
