In general I would say that Season VII was fine until Chris Barrie baled (and unlikely that "our" Rimmer could take over as Ace) and Kochansky took his place.The whole dynamic was ruined and although the rest of the episodes weren't disasters they were never quite as good.Season VII was poor....

Kryten is my favourite character.

Cat: "Forget red - let's go all the way up to brown alert!"
Kryten: "There's no such thing as a brown alert sir."
Cat: "You won't be saying that in a minute!"

I agree with you that some of the luster was gone after Barrie left during Season 7(and very improbable that he could become Ace Rimmer).Season 7 also didn't seem to be thought out that well and the cast seemed to be going through the motions.

I like Season 6 alot,some great episodes there(especially Rimmerworld and Gunmen...)but no Holly was sort of a bummer.

Did you notice how much bigger Starbug became after they lost Red Dwarf and had to actually live in it?

Favorite character:Arnold Judas Rimmer(Barrie is great!!!!)

I am a huge fan of this great BBC show and watch it incessantly.For fans of this show on the forum,what is your favorite season?

They are all good,imo.It's between Season 3 and Season 5 for me because they each contain a classic RD episode(Polymorph in 3 and Back to Reality in 5).

I want to pick 3 because it was a turning point in the shows development and look,but I gotta go with Season 5.
