Just like the last reviewer, I too did not pay attention to the label on the back where the aspect ratio is listed as Anamorphic Widescreen. However, I actually like this improvement.

Not only is this season Widescreen (which the previous six seasons were released in Full Scrren), I like the mastering of the picture much better as well. I have an HDTV with an HD Up-Convert DVD changer. Compared to the last six seasons, the picture quality of Season Seven is much better, clearer, and shaper. There was always some form of fuzziness with the previous seasons that may or may not have been visible on non-HD electronics. But rest assured, you get excellent quality with Season Seven. Great improvements. The packaging is excellent too with vibrant colors.

"The King Of Queens" is a great show, I think we all know that. The 6th Season was probably the pinnacle for the show, but the momentum carried over into the 7th Season. For me, this is what I refer to as the beginning of 'The Fat Years' for the character of Carrie Heffernan. The weight gain is never really discussed, so it's kind of like the elephant in the room, no pun intended. Leah Remini (Carrie) got pregnant in real life and she gained a lot of weight during her pregnancy and she showed it a lot. I don't understand why they didn't right her pregnancy into the show, it would have made perfect sense for Doug and Carrie to have a baby together. Just imagine the jealousy and subsequent storylines that would happen with Arthur. Anyway, I just find it distracting because it's never really mentioned that I can remember (I'm just now re-watching the episodes on DVD).

Nevertheless, it's a great show and this season is really good. You can't really go wrong with "The King Of Queens".

I am a huge fan of the show. "King of Queens" is one of the last remaining sitcoms. I know that it is airing its last 7 episodes starting this month and that is sad. IF you are a fan of the show I recommend this DVD along with the other seasons. This is a show that can be watched multiple times and still gets big laughs.

How could anyone not like this show...it is so funny. My husband and myself both have favorites of this funny TV show. We lay in bed and laughed until we cry. What a wonderful way to end a day!

This is an excellent DVD set especially if you're a fan of The King of Queens. The set has a nice quality, colorful & attractive cover sleeve & fold-out panels for each disc. The flyer enclosed with the discs gives good detailed descriptions of each episode (although it's in very fine print). The picture quality of each disc is excellent, too.

Every single one of the King of Queens episodes are worth watching! This show is by far one of the best TV sitcoms. Season 7 as well as every season prior to it are hilarious, especially when Arthur (Jerry Stiller) is in it. Doug and Carrie really have great chemistry also. My favorite 7th season episode is when Arthur tries to get his one year supply of Rice a Roni that he was supposed to have received 20 or so years ago when he was a contestant on a game show.

King Of Queens season 7 has got to be the funniest of them all, from Doug going back reliving his high school days as a Teen counselor" guiding all the new team feeling young again without realizing they think he is exactly what he is, washed up. Even back to Carrie in her new career with Arthur , well, just plain being Arthur. It was seriously the best season I had come across. Great buy for anyone who thinks Fred and Wilma Flintstone, Peter and Lois Griffin, and Homer and Marge Simpson are perfect couples (Fatty and Hottie). Try it out, you'll love it.

When this series started, it was a fun look at a quirky family whose members were sometimes crazy but always lovable. By Season 7, Doug had turned into a selfish little boy and Carrie was just as selfish, but also cruel. In this season, it doesn't seem like they care for each other anymore, and the viewer is left to wonder why they even live in the same house. As a family unit, they were no longer believable. In real life, Kevin James had lost weight and Leah Remini was still recovering from pregnancy. But on the show, Carrie relentlessly criticizes Doug for being fat. The writers needed to recognize reality, move on, or quit. We did enjoy the development of supporting characters, but as far as Doug and Carrie's marriage is concerned, it just isn't working anymore.

For many years now I have thought and still think that The King of Queens is the best sitcom out there.
The show has manage to hold a high quality throughout the years, altough
the later seasons have lacked a little bit of creativity. I still enjoy it very much but feels that the earlier seasons had a better "replay watching"
I still wish that they could add the option to have subtitles, but this is just a minor problem.
But in overall the seventh season still delivers laughter and joy to much satisfaction. Recommended.

Hello everyone and welcome to what is probably the funniest season of the king of queens to date. Doug finally conquers his fears of being a bartender and makes an alcoholic feel bad for ordering a non alcoholic drink on his first order, it's hilarious. So many great episodes so little time but once you start watching this show you will never stop becasue it hooks you very quickly. Carrie gains a few pounds and Doug and Lou Ferigno take advantage of the exercise time, what more could you want , Order a copy now and if you haven't ordered the other seasons bring em on home!!
