Perhaps the worst show ever.

Not even close.

The supporting cast of that show is pretty great. Jerry Stiller is an awesome character, and until Stacey Carosi got fat (actually pregnant IRL, but the show refused to flow with that) it was a solid daytime sitcom. Kevin James can get annoying at times, but he is pretty funny sometimes too. Leah Remini in her prime was fine as shite and they had really good on screen chemistry. Patton Oswald is funny.

It started going downhill at the end, crossing over with Raymond, refusal to have a kid, their relationship problems, etc... But the first few seasons are solid.

There are many worse shows out there.

Typical CBS garbage.

Although fun fact: After the series finale broadcast on May 14, 2007, The King of Queens became the last American live action version sitcom that premiered in the 1990s to end its run.

I'm with you. Thought it was pretty solid show. Sometimes they tried too hard but I laughed quite a bit.

Yeah, not remotely close. What about Raymond anyone? Lots of worse shows that didn't make it past a year too.

These daytime sitcoms are definitely a huge guilty pleasure of mine. I know they arent great, and sometimes terrible, but i just cant help myself. I'll watch KofQ, Raymond, Yes Dear, etc... whenever they're on

Not the worst ever but I can't stand it. That and Everybody Loves Raymond seemed like the same bullshite over and over and over and over. 2 bum husbands who had attractive albeit bitchy wives and crazy parents.

Seemed like every episode was husband did something dumb, wife bitched, parents did something funny, husband gets out of dog house. Rinse. Repeat.

i know dude. I dont know why i watch them, and laugh at them. I know i shouldnt. But i do it anyway. Its mainly the suppoting cast that makes all of those watchable.

KofQ - Jerry Stiller, Patton Oswald, The Hulk

Raymond - Peter Boyle, Brad Garrett, The MacDougalls (Fred Willard and Chris Elliot)

Yes Dear - For starters, i have wanted to bang Jean Louisa Kelly since i saw Uncle Buck for the first time after i hit puberty, also, Brian Doyle-Murray

I mean almost all sitcoms follow a formula. I understand if you dont like sitcoms, but thats how they go. I cant think of a family sitcom that doesnt follow a model like that

No, no, I agree and Ive seen like every ELR episode so I'm a hypocrite. I just couldn't stand those 2 shows or that particular formula.

KJames was funny. LRemini was fine (minus the fat years). Solid cast

What more could you ask for?

I liked it, but hate Kevin James and Lea Remini in everything else.

It's probably my favorite family friendly sitcom.
