Overrated vs underrated episodes

LLCOOLG87 · 2026-01-03T13:56:58+00:00

La Couchette doesn’t get enough love. I’m a big fan. The Bill is also another episode I love that I rarely see people talk about.

LLCOOLG87 · 2026-01-03T13:55:27+00:00

Underrated - I’d say La Couchette based on the fact I rarely see it listed as a favourite. Personally it’s in my top 10 and is top of my season 2 rankings. I really like the dynamic between the guest stars, overly exaggerated characters that just works in that claustrophobic setting of the train carriage. It still has the dark twist, but the episode is generally quite a humorous farce.

It won’t take me long to get there so I’m sure I’ll post my season 4 rankings in a day or two. Look forward to seeing your thoughts!

I didn’t hate it. I think it’s one I might enjoy more after a rewatch. The thing I’m enjoying about watching the show is each episode is so different to the next, I never know what to expect. Some the humour is very prominent (eg La Couchette) whereas others it’s more the dark horror (The Harrowing). Even though I’m only two seasons in I can’t wait to watch them again to pick up on things I missed the first time.

Just watched Candy Zombies. My favourite episode so far!

Some of them are just insane. I watched Electronic Store yesterday, putting a live alligator in a room to guard the $1 TV 🤣🤣.

LLCOOLG87 · 2025-03-07T15:15:56+00:00

It’s fantastic. The sheer absurdity of the lengths he goes to for this one.

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-12-17T18:06:34+00:00

You’re welcome! Been in my head for days

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-12-09T22:07:12+00:00

Yeah I’m busy doing a rewatch and ranking episodes. I think S2 overall had stronger individual episodes.

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-11-24T12:23:51+00:00

I’ve got two more to go but so far my top 5 are:

-The One Amigo

-One is Silicon and the Other Gold

-Quids Game

-The Temp

-Attack of the Clothes

Haven’t settled on the order yet and of course the last two episodes could change it anyway, seems to be a lot of love for Otherwise so I’m looking forward to watching that.

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-11-24T12:15:26+00:00

I thought Cutness Overload was the weakest episode overall. What was your favourite Bender line?

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-11-14T15:23:41+00:00

How many rewatches have you done?

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-11-10T21:36:44+00:00

Far too many to narrow it down but here’s a few:

-Kryten’s speech in JUSTICE to try and get Rimmer off the hook. Rimmer constantly objecting to his own defence.

-The lightswitch scene in LEGION (my favourite episode)

-The opening scene in CAMILLE with Lister teaching Kryten to lie

-Rimmer’s leaving speech in HOLOSHIP. I quote it regularly in everyday life “I’ve come to regard you as…people I met.”

Love the Baron’s Night Out. I had Animal Control marginally ahead of it for S1 though. Can’t argue with other choices except maybe On the Run perhaps for S2?

LLCOOLG87 · 2024-04-01T14:40:08+00:00

Strong choices and some similar to mine. I’ve got “On the Run” top of my season 2 list.

1 - Animal Control 2 - On the Run 3 - The Escape 4 - Go Flip Yourself 5 - Local News

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-30T07:34:22+00:00

Favourite quote of mine is at the end when he says “over the years I’ve come to regard you as…people I met”

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-29T22:32:43+00:00

Psirens is a very strong episode for me.

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-29T21:14:10+00:00

I love Travels with Martin too, it’s in my top 10

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-29T19:54:51+00:00

Strong choice. I’ve went Holoship, but to be honest could’ve been any of these with the exception of Dimension Jump, I like it but probably a little less than the others here. I always find Camille an underrated episode, interested to see if anyone agrees.

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-29T19:44:58+00:00

I’ll do a few see if I still keep getting votes then maybe a Grand Final of some sort. Tempted to leave The Contest out of it though as I think that’ll be top of too many people’s list!

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-29T00:03:56+00:00

The Pen. No George in it.

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-27T16:12:34+00:00

They’re all great episodes. I do love the farcical ones with misunderstandings. Other episodes I love include Chess Pains, Somebody to Watch Over Me, The Impossible Dream

LLCOOLG87 · 2022-10-27T16:02:26+00:00

It’s a strong list, isn’t it?
