showstopper24 0 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Sorry if there is already a thread on this. I searched it and didn't find one, but I thought there was one.Anyways, yesterday began the final couple of episodes of the series. I think it is the only sitcom still running that began in the '90's. This show is verry funny and entertaining. I think it is very underrated. Kevin James and Jerry Stiller are hilarious, and the other characters (such as Deacon, Spence, Danny, and Holly) are also terrific. Leah Remini also brings a funny side to the show because she is the good looking woman who married the funny guy. Last night's episode was very good and I am disapointed that the series will be ending soon.Anyone else a fan? Link to post Share on other sites
SuitedAces21 2,722 Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 This show sucks. The fact that it ran for so many years and Arrested Development was cancelled makes me angry enough to kill you Showstopper. Link to post Share on other sites
showstopper24 0 Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 I don't understand why people come to normal threads (this thread is normal compared to a thread about a bad beat or something like that) and talk bad about it. Why do you do it? Keep your negative thoughts to yourself and don't post. I just don't see the point unless you have something good to say. Even if you say you don't like the show, you don't have to be mean about it. Link to post Share on other sites

I can only hope that you will forgive my transgressions and that in the future we can post together in harmony, maybe as more than friends, but no pressure.I will now retire to wallow in self pity and shame.

dbcoyotes23 0 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 This show is great!I loved the episode where Ray and his brother, Robert...oh, wait.That should pretty much sum it up. Link to post Share on other sites
Dirtydutch 8 Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I was going to say, "good, I'm glad it's gone, maybe CBS will start running something good in it's place," but in my head it sorta' ellipsised off to an "...oh...right..CBS." The slot will now be filled with CSI: Corpse-Rape Investigations Unit, leading off at 8pm, and that night will be billed as Family Fun Night, or something cheap of the same effect, and no one will find it disturbing but me.Meanwhile, the mothers of the families who plan their week around it will be rallying to get South Park and It's Always Sunny off the air.I hate CBS, and all the people who watch it.

Utter formulaic crap.Everybody Loves Raymond was such a bad show. I think one of the big differences between that and the King of Queens is this:Ray is in almost every scene in his show. Even if he is not an important character in the scene-he is in it. Doug is not in every scene. I think he is a lot funnier than Ray, but some scenes in the King of Queens are just with Arthur or just with Carrie or just with Deacon. Raymond rarely has a scene with just the guest stars, so this is why the King of Queens is better. Link to post Share on other sites

Give it a chance...its pretty good. Kevin James is awesome!It is a pretty interesting show in that they don't try to make any of the core characters appealing in any way. I think it borrows heavily from Seinfeld in that respect. There are times when I sit back and laugh at how unashamedly selfish and petty they are towards each other. For example, Doug and Carrie get "honest" with each other. Carrie tells Doug to loose weight and he tells her she wears to much make-up. Doug finds working out and dieting is a difficult thing to do while Carrie just has to not put on make up so naturally he decides to find more things for Carrie to change. Any show with Jerry Stiller regularly acting crazy has some redeeming qualities. I'm not saying it Peabody worthy but their have been worse sitcoms than this. Fore example ANYTHING that NBC but on after Seinfeld on Thursdays in the 90's. TGI Friday shows. Link to post Share on other sites
