king of queens Review Summary
"Funniest show since Seinfeld" is how fans of King of Queens feel, even after it, too, has left the primetime airwaves. It's a valid comparison with Jerry Stiller having a role on each. Some reviewers feel the script itself is average, while the comedic genius of the show comes from "the actors that breathe life into King of Queens," with kudos going out to Stiller, as well as Kevin James and Leah Remini as well. Other reviewers feel the writers "do such a good job of varying the storylines revolving around all the actors that you don't get bored" and that the "clever quips keep you rolling." Fans wish King of Queens hadn't have ended when it did as it's one that "will never go out of date." Reviewers still find themselves making King of Queens part of their regular TV habits, often watching reruns back to back.

I started watching the King of Queens when it came on syndication. Doug and Carrie are hiliarious. I like the fact that she stands up to him. There ar times on the show that I think that Doug is a big kid that will never grow up. Carrie holds the marriage together and makes Doug accountable when he does something foolish. His friends come around to "play" but when they go home, especially Deacon, he knows that he has to go home to a wife and children so he resumes the role as husband and father. Carrie's father, Arthur is very arrogant and is Doug' nemesis. I remember Jerry Spiller...

The King of Queens is a hilarious show! From Carrie's strong New Yrok accent to her father Arthur, living in their basement, it's a great show! I lvoe seeing how CArrie and her hsuband Doug relate to each other and how Doug deals with his father-in-law living in their basement and living off of them. EVerything Arthur says is hilarious! He's always up to some new scheme or planning something crazy. Doug and Carrie and are a typical American middle class couple, who don't have any children yet so it's jsut the two of them, well three including the father/father-ij-law living in the...

King of Queens is one of the funniest shows that I have or ever seen. I enjoy watching the reruns as they come on daily and I am sorry that the series went off. Ben Stiller is so funny as the father-in-law that will never move out of the basement. This is a show that several people are able to relate to in their daily lives. Doug's job in delivery services and Carrie's job in an office shows everyone that life can be difficult,yet there always seems to be a silver lining or ray of hope when you are in love with each other.
This show makes me laugh constantly..I have all the seasons on DVD. Definitely a must-have. Makes a good gift for Christmas too..The characters are all hilarious, it is not a slapstick comedy, it is clever and witty.
