I know which one I'd rather hang around, and it wouldn't be the annoying loser who played the clarinet.

/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Rimmer didn't kill the entire crew, Lister did.....
Only in Rimmer's logic :)
I think it was something like "If Lister hadn't been imprisoned in stasis for smuggling a cat on board, he would have been there to help me mend the drive plate, so I wouldn't have made the mistake which caused the failure, which killed all the crew".
Lister smuggled the cat that caused the malfunction on to the ship in the first place unless I'm remembering that wrong, but I haven't seen Red Dwarf in about 2 decades.
You might be right, actually. There's only one way to find out: re-watch it all again :)
Rimmer was 100% assigned the responsibility of repairing the drive plate that released the neutron blast that killed the entire crew of Red dwarf.
However, in all fairness, everybody on the ship knew that rimmer was incredibly incompetent and assigning him such an important responsibility was a failure of command, so the real person who killed the entire crew was whoever ordered rimmer to do the repair.
Lister was already in stasis at this point so he literally could not be responsible for this.
Fair enough, it's been 20 years. I just thought the need for the repair was caused by the cat, which would have been Lister's fault for sneaking the cat on board in the first place.
The cat was already stored safely in the cargo decks at that point.
They have released more seasons. I think they're up to season 13 right now? And some of the later ones are pretty good. Definitely worth a rewatch.
I don't know if it's still there but I got to watch it again recently for free on tubi.
