    Given that they could talk to Epideme, you'd think they could have come to some kind of compromise. Litster's attempt to talk to him boiled down to: "How about you die instead?" There was nothing in it for Epideme.
    If he were smarter he could have pointed out that there are only three remaining bipedal organic beings at that point. If Epideme goes through his usual routine, then he's doesn't have much time either. Even his "freezing the body and waiting for a host" isn't going to work, since as far as anyone knows, there are no other hosts. He's screwed.
    You'd think with all of his accumulated knowledge he could come up with some artificial way of sustaining himself, (Kochanski tricks him with a cadavar arm and a little blood) or, failing that, maybe they could work out some kind of "timeshare". He could spend a few days in Lister, then a few in Kochanski, then some more in the Cat. Constantly cycling between them all, leaving before he does any real damage to any of them.Epideme could just become another member of the crew, a very useful one. On the fly he was able to come up with a way to increase their engine efficiency 300%. Imagine what else he could do for them? There's gotta be a way to work this out.

    • @iainrickwood2623
      @iainrickwood2623 2 роки тому +3

      Ud think they'd have had to tone it down in the first place, if they can make massive leaps forward in repairs, navigation, sciencing and whatever then it'd take a lot of fun outta the series and the rustbucket ship
      Or maybe if Lister bites cat and transfer Epideme, the virus then encounters the Cat's... unique mind and suddenly Epideme isn't quite as capable as he once was, and stays that way even after jumping to one of the other two again. He gets enraged at this sudden downgrade and blames the crew for it but is kept around for his technical insights since if they die then the body he's in won't get to be put into cryo. Then we could have jokes like, say, him constantly belittling and trying to take revenge on the crew, and his relationship with Kryten as a machine since him being a different kind of parasitic lifeforms to the ones that Kryten already cares for, as well as them both being the science-y ones

    Red dwarf went down hill when Kochanski joined the team. Before it was just lads, being lads. I'd put money on the odds that at least 90% of its followers were blokes. Just don't get the same laughs as before. All down to a more diverse cast I guess? But what could be more diverse? A mixed race human, a hologram, a mechanoid and a black cat????

    • @lukefreeman828
      @lukefreeman828 2 роки тому +11

      It was less about “diversity” and more about cast availability and writing problems (one of the main writers/producers left at this stage).
      It *could* have been brilliant but her character just isn’t written that well. Better writing (more time/experience writing women/not trying to replace lister etc) and it would have been just as good regardless of the presence of a woman. Imo, they talk the character up a lot in the early seasons with how lister thinks of her and then don’t really deliver a character that we imagine lister having a chance with or even liking - unlike the character we get to see in season 1.
      I guess it’s like this with a lot of shows though… they reach greatness and then spoil themselves for one reason on another.
