its so disgusting to watch the behavior of these two characters, Doug and Carrie. Usually sitcoms are funny because we can relate to them, imagining ourselves in a similar predicament, etc.
But these characters are psychotic , doing the most outrageous deplorable things , engaging in dysfunctional behavior that one could never really envision doing oneself.
In one episode they want to sabotage a relationship of a couple, and force them to break up, because it would be a convenience for them in some petty way. In another episode Carrie goes behind Doug’s back and instructs Doug’s psychiatrist what they should focus on. They are just horrible , evil people. In another episode, their pastor admonishes then for not being at mass on Sunday; they attend mass, when during prayer time, Carrie prays for a pay raise at work. When she actually gets the raise, her and Doug start behaving like idiots and spend the rest of the show using prayers anytime they want something to go their way. Doug prays for the outcome of a ball game on TV for instance. Towards the end of the show, Doug and Carrie at the deli and their priest is in line ahead of them ordering food. Doug notices there’s only one piece left of a particular choice of food that he really really wants, so he and Carrie pray in unison with bowed heads that the priest will select something else. The writers of this show are disgusting!!!

What's disgusting about this show is it furthers the lie of all sitcoms, that a fat white guy can land a dime piece.

If you hate King of Queens, maybe It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia would be more your style. Give it a shot and let us know what you think.

I wouldn't call it disgusting but I never liked it. Another show with a bitchy wife and a stupid husband.

I'd hate to see your opinion of Married With Children

I mean it’s just a shitty little sitcom dude. No need to go protest military funerals just because of it.

The show is hilarious and Leah Remini is smoking hot in most of it. I love it and watch the reruns all the time. Stop taking things so seriously.

To think a UPS driver and a paralegal could own the house they did in New York is hilarious.

You don't like them showing that prayers work?

The episode you describe is what got my children to find the Lord and return to church. That and a guy in a rainbow afro wig holding a John 3:16 sign in the end zone of a Jets game. Nothing else worked.

Damn this really bothered you. You know you can change the channel right? But Leah Remini is fire.

Calling it disgusting seems a little over the top. It seems a little more of an exaggeration of some of the things people do rather than being dysfunctional. It's ok for what it is- something to put on if there isn't something else better to watch.

We’ll keep watching until you see the episode where Doug installs a stripper pole in their bedroom. She is not very good and Doug gives her lessons on how to use it. He was surprisingly good at it.
