Trivia
In his memoir, Robert Llewellyn stated that during filming he would joke around and perform wild antics like he would on the set of the original series. While the original cast enjoyed his antics, the American actors found them distracting and embarrassing.

Quotes
Kryten: He evolved from cats, sir, just as your distant ancestors once swung from trees.
Arnold Rimmer: Ancestors? His grandparents swung from trees.

Alternate versions
After the pilot was rejected by NBC, a second pilot was made. Not a complete episode, it is a combination of scenes from the original pilot, scenes from the BBC series, and new scenes which slightly retooled the cast.

But why...?

The version I saw had poor video quality and the audio was out of synch. But that's not what bothered me, I just didn't get the point. If you're going to do an adaptation then change stuff (more than just bringing Kryton in early), a genuine american take on the idea not just the script would be interesting. This is just recycled jokes, carbon copy characters who didn't suit the actors. I mean the original IS in english, so what's the point?
