Red Dwarf - The Rimmer Song

A pilot episode for an American version (known as Red Dwarf USA) was produced for NBC in 1992, though never broadcast. The show followed essentially the same story as the first two episodes of the original series compressed into one 45-minute episode, substituting American actors (including Craig Bierko as Lister, Chris Eigeman as Rimmer, and Hinton Battle as the Cat) for the British; exceptions being Llewellyn, who reprised his role as Kryten, and the British actress Jane Leeves as Holly. It was directed by Linwood Boomer.
