Bonus Commentaries: Backwards Forwards

Last year September we marked the 25th anniversary of Series II with a series of commentaries for each episode because… well mainly because we’d done the same for Series I and we’d made a rod for our own back. But when sitting down to do the same for Series III, we realised we’d forgotten to ask Andrew to turn up to record. Always ones to waste an opportunity, we decided to go ahead anyway and instead preview the series by looking at the forwards version of Backwards on the DVD. It’s been questioned before if it’s worth having the whole episode in reverse rather than just highlights, and to make some kind of petty point we reversed the audio of this commentary (though this edition has been put forwards again so that we are comprehensible and no longer sound German). We’re making a point, but we’re not actually addressing it at the team behind the DVD. We’re addressing it at the one prat on the internet who’s bothered to get this recording, turn it round, and actually work out the rubbish we’re saying. What a poor sad life they’ve got! Does any of the episode make sense when watched in reverse? Has anyone ever watched it from start to finish? And what happens when you bring in Kerry Shale to remaster Series I for the Japanese market? These tedious topics and more are discussed as Alex and James get them out of the way before starting on the Series III commentaries properly later this week.

The Garbage Podcast Series II Commentaries: Parallel Universe

In this edition of our continuing celebration of Red Dwarf’s silver anniversary, we mark the 25th anniversary of the initial airing of Parallel Universe with our latest commentary for the episode. In a Series of incredible highs it seems somewhat strange to go out on an episode that is generally the lowest ranked of the series in most people’s opinions. One of the reasons often cited is the questionable sexual politics of the show; a criticism that will come up more than once over the course of the Red Dwarf’s ten series. But are we too harsh on this episode? It could be argued that it has something of a reputation that it doesn’t deserve, but equally it’s not unfair to say that in this case the problem with it more to do with the writing rather than the concept. Did anyone buy the Tongue Tied VHS anywhere other than in Poundland? Just what is the female equivalent of a big banana? And are 3 middle class males really the best people to be discussing the subject of sexual politics without descending into euphemism? Join Alex, James and Andrew for a long hard look at these topics as they try to penetrate the last episode of the series in this week’s Garbage Podcast.

The Garbage Podcast Series II Commentaries: Queeg

In this edition of our continuing celebration of Red Dwarf’s silver anniversary, we mark the 25th anniversary of the initial airing of Queeg with our latest commentary for the episode. This fan favourite sees Holly shine with an episode devoted to his character. While we would see this again to a certain extent in White Hole, this is the episode where Norman’s incarnation of the character is arguably at it’s best, and manages to create some of the most fondly remembered lines of the series. Why does this Holly seem so removed from the pop up pun machine of the later series? Can you feel for Veale? And with such a good episode, why are we seemingly just talking about Series VIII and the remastered project here? Join Alex, James and Andrew as they avoid addressing all the relevant issues in this week’s Garbage Podcast.
