OK, I have to think. Well, we all know that the Captain is crappy. He couldn't have done anything. Todhunter, well, yeah, he was OK. But if Kryten and the Cat had to go, and if Rimmer had to go, and Todhunter had to come back, well, not good! The audience wants Rimmer, or one of the other crew. Rimmer was the best for the part anyway.
What, Pinky and smegging Perky? The skutters hate Rimmer. Well, either that, or they're suffering from computer senility as well. You should have seen them trying to inject Lister with medicine.
Rimmer would have been the lowest-ranking on the ship without Lister. Why resurrect him?
I've just remembered. Rimmer has a small hard-light source. If he kind of thrust his chest (where his light bee is) at the button he could quite easily do it. It's in the book.
Without Lister constantly at his back, maybe he could of got further. It was mostly Lister who ruined Z Shift, if you read the first book.
In the band which appears at the first 2min of this scene the drummer and the bassplayer both the members of the legendary death/grind band called CARCASS!!!!
Rimmer still joined the space corps and became a member on red dwarf he still became a hologram after the radiation leak but without lister cat and kryten never existed on Red dwarf so rimmer was still there.Cos rimmer wittnessed when cat.kryten and lister disappeared rimmer knew who they were
1 thing tho: Why is rimmer still a hologram? coz the only reason he was brought back as a hologram after the radiation leak was to keep lister sane...
I hate it when people quote the video. but i can't help it, it's my duty. my duty as a complete and utter bastard.

This episode makes no sense.
-Rimmer was revived as a hologram to keep Lister company. Without Lister, there is no point to his resurrection.
-Rimmer could have rescued Kryten on his own, and he would still exist, just without all the rebellion.
-Could Holly have met his female opposite without Lister? That's who the female Holly is based on.
Does not compute. KABOOM!!!

OK, I'll try and make sense of it...
Though I see what you mean.
-It's impossible to tell if so, but maybe there was another reason that he was ressurected. There had to be someone left on the ship anyway!
-I'm not sure actually if Rimmer could of found Kryten. I doubt he'd pick him up once he finds out the women are dead.
-Holly created the Holly Hop Drive though, and I think Rimmer would have tried to get it to work too. There just wouldn't be Dog or Deb.
Hope it helped.

Holly couldn't get the Holly Hop Drive to work without at least one person who could touch (which a hologram cannot do).
Why resurrect Rimmer when the whole ship is deserted? Why not the captain, or Todhunter?
tolchok89 2 years ago
Good point. Yet maybe the scutters?

But Holly brought Rimmer back to keep Lister company and if Lister was'nt there there would be no need for her to do that.
Scottington666 2 years ago
THAT is a VERY good point. He wouldn't be there, you're right- but if all four disappeared there would be no more TV show...
