Here's what you'll find in the seventh season of Red Dwarf: the truth behind the assassination of John F. Kennedy, the return of Ace Rimmer (or a reasonable facsimile), an emotional rollercoaster created from real emotions, a very seductive virus, and numerous mishaps involving dimensional accidents, wormholes, nanobots, and male-female relationships. If that makes perfect sense to you, you're undoubtedly a fan of the cult comedy/science fiction series, but even if you're not, there are plenty of laughs to be had. Of course, not every Red Dwarf fan will be in accordance--Series 7 has been the subject of much controversy since its original airing in 1997-98, due mostly to the departure of co-creator Rob Grant, the departure of Chris Barrie's Arnold Rimmer, and the arrival of new castmate Chloe Annett as Dave Lister's ex-girlfriend, Christine Kochanski (who had been played by another actress, Clare Grogan, in earlier episodes). But no matter which side you happen to pick for this debate, there are still enough amusing and thought-provoking moments in each episode to please even the most demanding fan. Highlights for the season include the opener, "Tikka to Ride," which turns a trip for curry into a visit to Dallas circa '63; "Blue," which addresses the departure of Rimmer and the uncomfortable relationship between Kochanski, Lister (Craig Charles), and Kryten (Robert Llewellyn), and "Nanarchy," in which the aforementioned microscopic robots create more havoc than actual repair. Supplemental features have always been one of the main attractions to the Red Dwarf DVD sets, and Series 7 doesn't disappoint: included are commentary by the cast (including Norman Lovett, the original Holly) on "Nanarchy"; "Back from the Dead," a 90-minute featurette with new interviews and previously unseen footage; a pair of short films made by fans for a competition; extended editions of three episodes (with no laugh track); 40 minutes of deleted scenes; early effects footage; and lots more. --Paul Gaita

My father really enjoyed his gift, he has been looking for it and was happy to finally get it. Thanks.
Picking up, lifting to greatness. May 15, 2007
This season/series got better. If you like British silly sci-fi comedy, you will love this series! The early and the later seasons were the best. Some of the middle seasons had good episodes, but not all of episodes were good. I own all of the series and can't wait for the movie.
This is an AWESOME tv SERIES!! April 22, 2007
if you have been under a rock the past few years you probally haven't seen this series. i don't understand how this could be possible but i'm sure there are the SELECT few who haven't.
put simply it's a SCI-Fi/COMEDY series (BRITISH) about a guy, his cat, the person he hates most in the whole universe, his android. a "HUGE" MINING ship 5 miles long and set of cercumstances that forces him to end up being "the last human being alive in the universe!".
just in that respect your saying we'll if everyone is dead, how can they possibly come up with scripts for episodes. as to date 8 SEASONS have been made. hopefully they will continue with more series.
works are being made for a theatrical release, but i'm not holding my breathe. would be nice though. the circumstances that the crew of the mining ship "RED DWARF" get into are hilarious.
if just fresh enough with new ideas, old ones. poking fun at just about anyone and everything. if you want something a little different this is the SERIES for you!! enjoy

follows in the grand tradition March 21, 2007
As title, this series follows in the grand tradtion of Red Dwarf hijinks, and..also in the series 5 and 6 tradition of breaking with the past somewhat. The show still takes itself more seriously than it should this season, just like season 5 and 6 (more six than five)and has darker moments more frequently. And has anyone else noticed the subtle transtion of the cat? How hes become, well, not "cat-like" so much anymore? See Series 1 for the Cat at his peak.
Still this series delivers some excelent material, including what I count as likley my favorite line from almost any enpisode (won't give it away though)
So for fans of RD, or sc-fi silliness, or britcoms in general, this is for you smeghead!
If this is 'jumping the shark', I'm a goit! February 3, 2007

In the fall of 1993, Out of Time, the final episode of Red Dwarf 6 was broadcast. When the episode ended on an unplanned cliffhanger and 'to be cotinued' subtitle it became clear that there would have to be a series 7. But it wasn't as easy to do as expected- co-creator/writer Rob Grant left after a falling out with Doug Naylor and actor Chris Barry ( Rimmer) was unwilling to appear in future episodes. Due to all these compilcations it was more than three full years before a new episode of Red Dwarf was seen on television. Did it and its seven fellows measure up? Read on. ... When Red Dwarf 7 first hit airwaves it was a success in terms of audience reaction and percentage of people tuning in to watch. It is curious then that reviews posted here and elswhere have derided the series as unfunny, stale, and out of keeping with the formula of pervious series. Some have even claimed that it 'jumped the shark', a phrase the surley instills dread in anyone involved in television. To me RD-7 did none of these things- the storylines and overall setup for the series was creative were clever and witty, the acting the usual great, and apart from a few gags you might get simply because you aren't British, quite funny if in a slightly different way to the others. I would also like to point that Robert Llewellyn's delivery during Kryten's jokes is absoloutley pricless and at certain points he really makes the character's emotions palpable. Anyhow, the series was great with Tikka, Clipper, Ouroboros, Blue, Beyond a Joke and Duct Soup delivering especially well. Now I'd just like to point out a few things to patch up some misconceptions and critisisms about the series: 1. The laugh-track was not faked- audiences were shown the prerecorded episodes complete with visual effects, music etc. and their genuine laughing was recorded and broadcast on television and put on these DVDs ( the exceptions would be the bonus 'extended versions' of three episodes where the laughter has been removed. 2. In cas anyone is still wondering, Rimmer isn't completly absent. He appears in the first two epsiodes ( leaving in the second) and reappears in flashbacks, dreams and more in episodes 3 and 5. 3. Continuity. It is true that some things are out of continuity, the timedrive being among them. However, we have been given hints of a relationship between Lister and Kochanski before series seven- see the Grant/Naylor novel 'Infinity Welcomes Careful Drivers' for more info there. Finally, I'd like to say that I don't think the show was anymore sci-fi/oriented in 7 that it had been since around 4- it's just that with Rimmer gone and the crew on Starbug, etc. the nature of the sci-fi is a little different. I mean be honest, wasn't sci-fi a major part of the series from at least 5 on if not earlier; if the end of series six isn't sci-fi, what is? Anyway, to finish, I firmly beleive that Red Dwarf did not get any worse for the break and the losses and that it was still funny- just different in a number of ways. Now, I think I'll go eat some gizpacho ( sp?) soup and watch some episodes of a show that 'jumped the shark'... The end- the smeg it is!
