It's Cold Outside Season Two

[@AcutePanic41]

Red dwarf and the guys saved me in many ways. Had a rough childhood, parents constantly arguing, "mum" drunk 18 hours a day. My best friend would invite me over to his place for the weekend and we'd watch Red Dwarf whilst eating burgers his mum made. For those weekends, I could forget everything and laugh until my jaw hurt.

I always love that everyone on the show hated the grey set, but the designer loves it.

[@AndrewChapman]

I love the Series III-V sets, but there is something about the grey sets from I and II that felt unique which I did feel a bit sad to see go in III.

[@megashillyshally]

Adore III-VI sets. But I'll defend I and II sets to the death. Really unique and super cosy even with all the typically colder grey(s).

[@brianm2881]

@@AndrewChapman The grey sets definitely look unique in the whole show, but they did look bloody cheap as well, let's be honest. They looked like what they were, which was basically painted particle board. The most positive aspect of the original sets was more that they perfectly represented the drab humdrum nature of being stuck 3 million years in deep space with little company and nothing to do, which was really the overall theme of the first two series.

[@brianm2881]

​@@robdimambro1674 The impression I got was that he was well liked by the cast and crew, despite the odd strop he threw at the show runners. I don't think that the rest of the cast, Danny and Craig in particular, could talk, as they're pretty open about their own behaviour that was less than optimal back in the early days, i.e. showing up late to films and rehearsals and being subjected to an utter bollocking from Paul Jackson.

[@atheist101]

Thank you so much for this upload. As an American I didn't know this series existed until I found it on Netflix several years ago. Since then I've watched the entire thing so many times I know every episode by heart. I wish there was more, 6 episodes a season isn't much but what is there is phenomenal. These extras scratch that itch for new Red Dwarf content I haven't seen yet. I hope they continue on after the last movie, I feel like they could never run out of content for the show. Even having them as old men in the future and maybe having Lister's kids continue the legacy with another hologram or something.

[@marcwilliams9824]

This is my problem with most US (successful) comedies, in my experience. They pump out dozens of episodes per season from an entire platoon of writers. The end result always feels like mass-produced, paint-by-numbers "comedy".

[@spartan.falbion2761]

It could be said that there are too many, as certain series are simply not good, or are lacking. I never liked series VI.

[@Frosty-oj6hw]

@@marcwilliams9824The strength of almost all of the early BBC comedy and british TV in the early days in general, was the strength of writing. They were done on a shoestring budget which is why you have these laughably bad sets, but the combination of great acting plus absolutely brilliant scripts just made all of the other problems melt away, they transported you into another universe. It was very telling when they improved the budgets around season 8+, there was a big leap in production quality but it felt like the same show, it didn't need those things to be successful. Really love these old shows, I grew up watching The Young Ones and Bottom, I'm not even sure you could put half of that stuff on TV today.

[@maxdangers]

I love this so much, I absolutely adore these more than the series itself sometimes. I love Red Dwarf, it's so excellent and introduced me to so many fascinating philosophical and science fiction concepts.

I could never get around them dialling back Rimmer and adding Kochanski, but Stoke Me A Clipper is one of the best episodes of Red Dwarf for me, the whole intro with Ace Rimmer is one of the best intros I've ever seen. The Rimmer Experience in Blue is unforgettable also, everyone remembers that straight away, and I really like the Epideme episode too. It's after the crew are resurrected that it can get a bit different but they have their own charm. That intro to Back In The Red where Lister is trying to break Rimmer into talking to him again has me in tears, especially Rimmer's reactions!

'Back to Earth' is on BBC iPlayer as well as Blu-ray and DVD. Only on iPlayer, it's the feature-length director's cut instead of the 3-part TV version. Series X onwards have also been released on Blu-ray and DVD, which do include documentaries covering each episode.

They didn't actually start doing these documentaries covering each episode individually til the series III DVD. So therefore, the ones for I and II aren't included on the DVD sets of their respective series. They were eventually done for The Bodysnatcher Collection DVD released in 2007, the year after VIII was released on DVD.

Thus "DS9" was a third series, "Voyager" was the 4th series, etc. They're NOT wrong in the UK; it's just *different* .
