Red Dwarf should have picked up several characters along the way, but didnt...
Kryten disappearing into the great unknown on a bike was madness for a start. they were lucky to pick him up.
Hudson could have been repaired and been a key member of the crew Camille and Hector Blob could quite happily stayed on board Red Dwarf Ace Rimmer didnt need to leave... Some sentient wax droids didnt need to die Some extra rimmers from rimmerworld, male or female could have come on board, although I appreciate doubt would have been popular Polymorph wife Sim Crawford, the broken hologram from Trojan, she's on board stirring tea with the stir master

Nah, bluely can keep his job bossing folk about. Im just interested to hear people thoughts, particulary one what they think would have been good ideas, or avenues to have one down. Or where it simply went wrong?

Personally I would have kept Camille blob (ditched hector) because she could have been a versatile character. Wax Elvis for whenever you need a catchy little theme tune, and Sim Crawford, cos she was quite the little fruity fox in the box. If she ever went on a killing spree, you could unbox Hudson and have a right proper free-or-all rip up. Send in Robot Marilyn as decoy fodder, and then put them back together as one super fit, all fighting, all dancing main character.
Character integration solved with an exciting twist! (easily a double episode). Better than the shite we got with Konchanski

No, im saying there was plenty of scope to go in a perfectly more feasible direction that the one we got. They wanted a female character, and im suggesting there were plenty of forgotton about characters who potentially could have remained on board, or brought back, allowing a certain reconnection to previous episodes, and thereby creating a new or redeveloped story arc

Also Doug felt it was perfectly normal and healthy for Lister to keep behaving this way. I wonder who Doug’s Kochanski is and whether she’s safe

Cat can sort of be excused, given that he’s not human and we let animals get away with all sorts. Like how everyone thinks dolphins are great but they’re rapey af
