Cat is always a joy to watch, he's been stealing scenes since he made his appearance. The two girls popping up at the end of Can of Worms I agree shouldn't have been revealed to be a dream, it deflates a perfectly good punchline.
Alien Nation was an amazing show with an incredible cast. At least after they cancelled it, they did several TV movies to continue and conclude a few arcs. Like Sykes and his neighbor/love interest. With MLP and now Dwarf off the table, I'd love it if there was enough interest for you to look at the show.
Hmm, would luv to listen to a uk parody dub of Shrek with the RD actors. Danny John-Joules would make a great Donkey! maybe Rimmer for Lord Farquaad and Kryten the magic mirror
6:19 Ok, up until now, my favourite moment in your vlogs has been the 'hey-ho pip and dandy Rimmerism' joke from Trojan. I absolutely loved that and thought that would be a hard act to follow. You blew it out out of the water completely with that Cat/Donkey comparison. It took me nearly a minute to calm down after seeing that, and then I had to go back to the part of the video that I missed because I was laughing so much. Absolutely brilliant!
Yeah, I was gutted when it was cancelled. At least we got the TV movies, but they kinda re-told the story of that last episode and left some stuff out, so we never really got a proper resolution to that cliffhanger.
Alien Nation has a fantastic show and the theme still works itself into my brain from time to time, often medleyed together with the Farscape theme, since they were somewhat similar. I remember the steroid story in the episode in question as the substance actually being derived from Tenctonese hormones, which was part of why George was able to overpower the roid-rager: 1. he was channeling his protective instincts and 2. the Tenctonese were already naturally stronger than humans and that was being augmented by George's pregnancy. I miss shows that are that surprisingly well written (although I'm entirely cognizant that there might be some rose-coloured nostalgia going on here).
Love these, thanks from a ‘young fan’ who is nearly 27, started watching around 7 or 8 years old. Keep up the great videos, much appreciated from UK, it’s great to see people still love this show
...Or maybe if Red Dwarf uses a day-night cycle with lighting, the night cycle would be dimmed lights, not total darkness. The Cat's people might lose their night vision...
I wholeheartedly agree with you that they made Cat WAY too stupid in "Can of Worms" . In fact, Cat being too stupid was practically the only character derailment Season 8 DIDN'T do. Trust me, if I can say ANYTHING positive about Season 8, that's a problem, a big one.
17:37 - You have my vote for the ALIEN NATION vids! I'm particularly interested if there were other alien races outside the main slug-like humanoid ones (I remember footage of a 10-foot-tall insectoid monster menacing the two lead officers).
I second this vote. Been awhile since I last watched any of episodes of Alien Nation, but I'd love to hear a retrospective review on it. Or even just the movie alone.
There currently filming a two part episode that my brother was at the filming of the 1st part and from what little he is allowed to tell us is you will love it as its Cat related with answers to questions since the season one episode "Waiting for God"
Alien nation was great from what I remember of it, even when I was a kid I realized it was an allegory for racism. They really weren't subtle about it at all lol
I am sad now that I won't get to see you do videos on "Alien Nation" I never knew this show existed & I wanna know more now & now I'm sad I never will. On a positive note, is it weird I wanna Hug Cat sometimes?
So according to the UK channel Dave's Twitter, the Red Dwarf special this year will feature a character named "Rodon, leader of the feral cats". Publicity photo very promising, are you excited at a possible actual Cat-centric episode at last? (Or at least until they all turn into polymorphs...)
I actually did end up doing about the first half of Season 1 (then I had to stop due to lack of time, but I hope to get back to it eventually). There's a playlist for it.
the ending to can of worms didnt make a whole lot of sense to me, I thought the joke was supposed to be that he really does have lady cats in his bedroom whats the point of something we thought he was lying about being a lie? also why does he dream Lister comforting him? lmaooo
As an older trans woman who does not pass some of the stuff in those Alien Nation clip hits, oof That was such an interesting show, so glad i was able to watch it as a kid.
Hello, I know you said that you doubt you will continue with season vlogs since it is too time consuming and YT being stupid, but there will be 2 hr 2020 Red Dwarf special, you think you can squeeze that in when you get your hands on it? xD
I still would have disliked the finale if it was Lister, partly because we saw it with him before. Now Rimmer would have been a bit more enjoyable especially as he had fun mocking Lister for it before!
You know, I always like The Cat, but this series of videos has made me realize how much of a genius Danny John Jules is!
I had never noticed how much details were in his wardrobe, well done!
Thanks, I'm glad people like those segments.

That casting is just about perfect XD
I'm guessing lister would be Shrek?
The whole notion of making a series of videos dedicated to one character is lovely. Thank you for these

Alien Nation is such a throwback.
OH.My.GAWD.
I saw Alien Nation when it first came out. I held out hope for years that it would come back.

Rimmer damnit I just got home and I have to go to work tomorrow, but rimmer I’m not gonna miss this video!

Always a pleasure!!!
Oh god I remember watching the Alien Nation cop show as a kid. I really liked any science fiction played before my bed time, didn't I?

I think the hair in give and take is his hair un-relaxing after not being on the ship for too long

On a long train journey with nothing to do, but plenty of wifi...Time to watch a Cat Retrospective :D
Alien nation was great from what I remember of it, even when I was a kid I realized it was an allegory for racism. They really weren't subtle about it at all lol
No wonder Danny John-Joules was cast for Blade 2 he most be a Vampire seeing how little he's aged over the years
True XD
omg I hope you get time to do some videos on Alien Nation one day.
Cat in this season reminds me of Michael Jackson in Smooth Criminal
Good to know that Lister didn't just rest on his laurels as an art history major... That dropped out after a class or so...
I remembered Alien Nation... And Det. Sykes name meant... 'excrement' in Tenctonese...
Cat was so good in the recent episodes
Well with no more Red Dwarf after Season 12 (at the moment), why not Alien Nation?
I am sad now that I won't get to see you do videos on "Alien Nation" I never knew this show existed & I wanna know more now & now I'm sad I never will.
On a positive note, is it weird I wanna Hug Cat sometimes?
It's not weird to me, but maybe I'm the weird one =P
@@Cyborcat You . . . weird . . . Nah! :P

ooh do Alien Nation, I have seen an episode or two ages ago and know nothing about it but was intrigued
I actually did end up doing about the first half of Season 1 (then I had to stop due to lack of time, but I hope to get back to it eventually). There's a playlist for it.
@@Cyborcat cool!

Dave has commissioned a Red Dwarf TV movie for 2020.
Yep.
@@Cyborcat I suspect I'm not the first to tell you.
For all it's problems, at least Can of Worms wasn't as bad as Enterprise's 'Trip gets pregnant' episode.
As an older trans woman who does not pass some of the stuff in those Alien Nation clip hits, oof
That was such an interesting show, so glad i was able to watch it as a kid.
They only got one season!?
Yep, just the one season and it ended on a cliffhanger! Fortunately they were able to make a series of TV movies after awhile.
I liked Cat being preg, but it helps to not take the series too serious and turn your brain off. :)
what's that tune at the end, it was on in the supermarket I can't get the bloody thing out my head
Tongue Tied.
@@Cyborcat was it just written for the show, or is there a band behind it?
no the one before tounge tied when you're talking about the outfits
Oh, that's royalty-free music, the name is in the credits.
I remember where I heard it now, it was on a tutorial of how to work ableton live 10, thanks a lot
With old ladies and cats...

I can probably do it. It'll probably be a long single video like "Back to Earth". Can't tell you when, tho.
I'm pretty sure those are cat silhouettes
Please consider doing an alien nation video in the future.
DO THE ALIEN NATION SERIES! I loved that movie AND the show!
Red Dwarf movie confirmed at Dave
So are you gonna watch “Cats” this year? 😸
I might. It looks kinda cute to me.
Cyborcat
Oh wow, someone who *ISN’T* scared of the character designs.
@@Cyborcat holy shit, i'm not the only one!
Yeah, I get the concept of uncanny valley, but people are really overreacting to it, IMO.
I still would have disliked the finale if it was Lister, partly because we saw it with him before. Now Rimmer would have been a bit more enjoyable especially as he had fun mocking Lister for it before!
Yes yes Yes!
Do a series on alien nation please!!!
What the smeg is it
Nani? Surprise upload?! First comment btw
You should review fallen kingdom just saying
Maybe when the third movie comes out.
