Great. She's one of the few Conservatives in Hollywood and you don't like her character.
It was a very cute show.
Never watched it much, though.
Two weeks ago the entire show was one sexual reference after another. I really enjoy the show, but to be honest it never really was a family show, and I do not permit my kids to stay up and watch it. If the kids are up, "Raymond" was off. Having said that, I will be sad to see it go, it was really one of the last truly funny shows on the air... much more of a reality sho than the (despite what they tell you) HEAVILY SCRIPTED shows like Survivor, Amazing Race, American Idol... anyone who believes that stuff is even remotely spontaneous belongs in that audience.
[Husband and wife are trying out for a talent show. After stumbling around, the slightly-built husband ends up on the wife's lap.]
Director: Well, here's a new act: A girl ventriliquist with a life-sized dummy!
Wife: This isn't a dummy, it's my husband.
Director: Your husband?
Wife: That's right, his name is [John Smith].
Director: You mean he's alive, flesh and blood? That he can walk and talk and make love like other men?
Wife: No! I'm telling you, he's [John Smith]!
I substituted the name of the husband. Where is this dialogue from?
Where would the writers on "Raymond" and "Seinfeld" be, if they couldn't have someone inappropriately, opening a personal door, bursting in on some embarassing scene? It seems that in every Seinfeld or Raymond episode I happened upon, while surfing, it always heppened one way or the other...gets old, real quick.
To me this is campy regional humor. I don't like wise crackers from NY....hate Letterman, the original wise a$$.
Well, It might have been George on Seinfeld, but Ray does proclaim himself a "sex camel" during an argument with Debra where she gets mad at him and tells him she has a headache.
Yep, every show on tv goes to the same joke writers. It is just like the evening news, the same jokes get used on different shows in the same week. Only a confirmed curmudgeon could tell you that. My family HATES to watch tv with me, I know what will happen and the lines that will be milked for a laugh.
The series should end with a divorce. Those two characters clearly don't like each other.
I never liked this show until I got married and had kids.
Boy you are 'so' full of yourself!
WOW! Good for you. Less TV is always a good thing. Keep up the good work.
"I wonder why so many people are watching these shows when there is so much to experience in life."
And I wonder why you are wasting time talking about things you claim you don't care about.
I'm with you. They should divorce. Ray is a lazy slob. His mother is a control freak. The old man tells it like it is. Robert is adorable. I'm still waiting for the wife to tell Marie off, in spades. Can you imagine this show when the kids grow up and all the inherited Barone genes kick in??
Duh.............ROFLMAO. Busted!
*Sigh*
Prigs on Patrol.
shakin' my head here.
There doesn't appear to be anything that can't or doesn't offend them, even when they have to HUNT for something.
There must be something wrong with me as I'm rarely offended.
btw, have you ever heard of the comedian Ron White? Just discovered him and he's hysterical!!
