The Red Dwarf (US) Pilot has become something so notorious that it's like an urban legend of crappiness. How the hell did this unfunny abomination get made? The distinctly post-colonial British-ness of the original cult classic is COMPLETELY gone, and replaced with generic American sitcom syndrome chock-block with canned laughter galore and woeful music. Not to mention the actors (besides Robert Llewellyn) lack ANY synergy or basic chemistry making for interesting viewing.
Red Dwarf didn't deserve to be mocked this way, but thankfully this pilot is hard to find, and never officially aired either. Even with the whole bootleg novelty of its existence, it still sucks hard.
Good luck trying to find this one WITHOUT using the black market that is pirated DVDs, streaming, YouTube posts and so forth. Besides, I think even Grant Naylor Productions disowned this joke altogether.
