Calling all smegheads! The twelfth series of the cult-favorite sci-fi comedy hit reunites the original cast in six brand new far-flung space escapades. With big laughs and dazzling effects, Red Dwarf XII recaptures the show's golden age. Red Dwarf returns for the twelfth series of the legendary comedy. For the very first time, the rest of the crew discover just how it feels to be Kryten when they're arrested by the Mechanoid Intergalactic Liberation Front. The Dwarfers come across a ship where criticism is illegal, and a space station where the crew have developed a cure for evil. When all the machines on Red Dwarf go on strike Rimmer and Kryten hold a Presidential election, while Lister discovers a simple update of the ship's latest software could be a matter of life or death. The Cat faces an identity crisis like never before when he discovers he needs glasses. Finally, Rimmer decides to leave Red Dwarf in search of a parallel universe where he isn't such a massive loser. In our most recent report about Red Dwarf - XII for home media (that news is barely over three weeks old), we passed along word from BBC Home Entertainment that today, November 21st, would be the finalized release date for the title. Here at TVShowsOnDVD, we expressed concern about whether the date was indeed finalized. It's highly unusual for a title's package art to not be distributed so close to a street date. That can sometimes mean that the street date isn't actually correct. Well, we're happy to say that we were wrong about this one! Today, BBC Home Entertainment did indeed release Red Dwarf - XII, and you can buy it right away from Amazon.com (see button link below) or from the BBC Shop online studio store, on either DVD ($34.98 SRP; 2 discs) or high-def Blu-ray Disc ($39.99 SRP; 1 disc). Both versions include English SDH subtitles. And the BBC Shop finally has the finished package art. It clearly is designed to connect with the part of the studio's description, quoted above, that says "the rest of the crew discover just how it feels to be Kryten"...wow!
