Re: Red Dwarf: The Complete Collection- $59.99 @ Amazon DOTD 11/10

I made a blind-buy of this box set when Amazon put it on sale for a similar (slightly lower) price in December. It's a great series, and the box set is a great release.

I never heard of Red Dwarf prior to the sale, but I found some glowing reviews. Make no mistake though, it's probably not for everyone. I highly recommend it to anyone who likes both Star Trek or Doctor Who type of sci-fi and wry British sit-coms (think insult-heavy "Black Adder").

Plot takes a back seat to the gag. As far as the quality of special effects, think of it as a bridge from 1980s "Doctor Who" to 2000s "Doctor Who". The characters are well-written, and some of the episode set-ups are quite clever.

The box set is very well done with tons of great extras.

When I think about how much money I spent on Red Dwarf, first on VHS, and then on DVD... ARGH! This set is definitely a bargain, and a worthy purchase for any Red Dwarf fan. The only thing not included is the recent movie (or 3-part miniseries, depending on how you look at it) which came out last year...

Lots of funny bloopers and outtakes with the DVD's, and great featurettes...

When I wanted to buy this on Amazon back in March they were out of stock. The lowest marketplace was around 125.00 at the time. I got mine off of Ebay for 99.00. Not a fan of ebay, did get a nice hdtv off it this year though

I was going to order this but noticed multiple reviews of people having problems with disk 6. I have the first four DVD releases but wondering if the remaining seasons should be purchased individually or should I go for the set.
