* IronicEpisodeTitle: "The End" is the very first episode. Borderline because the episode actually does deal with a massive accident that wipes out almost the entire crew, setting up the series for AfterTheEnd. (And with that situation set up, the episode ends with a caption in the same font, saying "The Beginning".)

** After the first meeting between Lister and Rimmer's hologram, the latter absent-mindedly goes to lean on the central table in the drive room, and falls partway through it. While Rimmer remains unable to truly physically interact with the world (with the occasional exception) until early in Series VI, he doesn't fall through solid objects in this manner again, likely the result of Holly adjusting his projection so that he can use furniture in its intended fashion.

* CrypticBackgroundReference: Captain Hollister briefly refers to something that happened on the ''Oregon'' when some unquarantined rabbits got loose during his lecture to Lister. Exactly what happened is never detailed, though the context implies that it involved the animals causing havoc on the ship and would explain why he's so against Frankenstein's presence on the ''Red Dwarf''.

** Cat shrugs off the story of Frankenstein, Cloister the Stupid, and the cat race's genesis as some old myth that no-one really believes in. Only three episodes later, it's revealed that the mythology around Cloister was taken so seriously that it resulted in a full-on holy war among the cat race, albeit it splits the difference by revealing that Cat personally doesn't take the religion that seriously.

* InsaneTrollLogic: Rimmer maintains his charge of mutiny against Lister on the grounds that Lister prevented him at the time from performing a vital duty. Lister immediately points out that the "vital duty" at said time was an attempt to snap Lister's guitar in half. Based on that, in Rimmer's mind, there is no right to owning personal things at all and a person of higher rank has full rein to destroy such objects on the grounds that it is a vital duty on behalf of the ship, and the person defending his personal property is to be charged with mutiny.

** Holly was originally a disembodied voice. Some remnants of this linger through the episode, including the EverybodysDeadDave sequence. Likewise, this is why Lister is looking at the ceiling on several occasions when he answers Holly - because he was supposed to be looking at the speakers the voice was coming from.
