   Exactly! While anything computer generated like Holly and Rimmer could   
   be lamely explained away as a computerized way of giving them the   
   appearance of aging, Kryten aging makes no sense, the Cat just becomes   
   creepy, and while Lister as a young guy with no ambitions and a crush on   
   a dead woman from his past is funny a middle-aged man with those   
   conditions is simply pathetic.
