Good to see an actor being honest about the dren they have to play. There's so many BS interviews where they pretend to love the rubbish they did to pay the rent.
Lister wasn't drunk, just lazy and wanted to get a free ride... that's why he brought the cat, it was all to get a free ride... so my mom explains to me :D makes more sense then being drunk
I recall the fans being upset more about the lead being changed to a Caucasian rather than his being "prettier" than the UK version of Lister. As if the network thought Americans couldn't deal with a Black man in that role. A real slap in the face.
And then they had to make Cat a female in the 2nd version and that was the end.
Just too much change just for the sake of change.
Can't hate Bierko for it because of how much the (real) cat in the 1st pilot liked him.... :-)
wow! its so good to get the opinions of one of the main victims of RDUSA. It did have potential though. The writing was just early to mid 90's US humour which was cack. They have not only caught up to UK humour but are also overtaking it.... Bout time!
I think he was a little hard on himself. The UAS pilot had potential...but yeah, it was pretty bad. LOL
Super stoked for Red Dwarf X though!! WOO HOO!

@hollywood4130 They are separate things on different paths - not on the same path with one of them overtaking the other.
