Everybody Loves Raymond

:D
My in-laws have been bleating about this for a few years. They travel to the wonderful U S of A all the time. (Lucky bastards)

I have just started watching it.

I have to say I really like...

The mom and dad or nan and grandad, whatever, lets not row, are Brilliant.
This looks good. I do like.

Not as good as Scrubs, Malcolm In The MIddle or Curb ur Enthusiasm, but still damn good.

Any Views.
PS. I know this should be in Foreign but I can't find a foreign anywhere.
SoRrY

I've stuck it in Foreign for you Charley
:D

I really like Everybody Loves Raymond in the same way I like The IT Crowd. It sneaked gently under my radar and now I've got used to it being there.

Use your eyes, woman! :P

Have to say though, I quite like it too. Well, ok. Perhaps like implies something further; I don't mind it. I'll watch it if it's on. But I wouldn't hunt down the DVDs or watch it specifically.

I enjoy it! From being at uni and not getting up till late it was always my morning entertainment followed by King Of Queens. That was also pretty good.

I miss channel 4!! TV is Aus is crap and i have to put up with Australia's got Talent and Australia's biggest loser...(it's a weight loss programme, they're not trying to find australia's biggest sad case) :P

Why live there then? It's all a bit backwards! ;)

I refer my answer to a post I made on a previous thread.

'Raymond' only really kicked into gear when Amy and her family were written in and especially her brother who was also in 'There's Something About Mary'. The other great asset in the show was the actress Doris Roberts who played Raymond's mother. As the series went on the writers made her the mother/mother-in-law from hell, which I think she played with superb timing.

Oh yes, she was a brilliant actress!!! Loved her -but also dreaded finding a man with a mother like her attached!! haha

it a shame that most of the sitcoms i like are american, probably cos they have 100 scriptwriters per episode ><
raymonds brother makes me laugh...just his deep voice ^^

Yes, I like his voice too.

You don't expect much from a sitcom screened in the mornings, but it can actually be very funny.

I like to watch it early in the morning before work it really is a good sit-com, well acted, well written, sometimes it is repetitive i.e yet again they are arguing about her cooking, but that is only a few episodes, i do like it, one of the best American sit-coms.

I quite like it...if there's nothing else on then I'll watch it and giggle a bit, but nothing more to be honest

I'm sorry but I just hate the feel of these US Sitcoms. My daughter sometimes watches them and there's a new one about a TV station. She knows how to get me out of the way quickly.

Less Than Perfect?

I've watched it a few times, it's o.k I suppose. Unlike everyone else though I'm not to keen on the rest of the cast, but Raymond himself is alright.
