Show Summary

  • Ended
The King of Queens revolves around Doug Heffernan Kevin James, Everybody Loves Raymond), a Queens, N.Y., parcel delivery man with simple desires. Among his prized possessions is a 70-inch television that his lovely wife, Carrie (Leah Remini, Fired Up), provided for him. However, now that Carrie's widowed father, Arthur (Jerry Stiller, Seinfeld), lives with them, Doug's television room has become Arthur's bedroom. Doug and his sports-watching buddies, Spence (Patton Oswalt, Crank Yankers) and Deacon (Victor Williams, The Animatrix)--and the beloved television--have been relegated to the garage, and Doug now shares his castle with a very eccentric father-in-law and his very unusual habits.

Theme Song "My eyes are gettin' weary, My back is gettin' tight, I'm sittin' here in traffic, On the Queensborough bridge tonight, But I don't care cuz all I wanna do, Is cash my check and drive right home to you, Cuz baby all my life I will be driving home to you."moreless

    Both main characters play their roles very well. The grandpa is silly and weird, which is somehow appealing to me. I like the laidback, casual conversations they have.... it makes you wonder what it's like to live a day in their shoes. I like how random and silly the stories are. I try not to miss an episode!

  • A show about a fat guy, a crazy dad and a annoying wife

    This is basically a average sickcom. We have all the classic character that have been cloned time and time again. We have the fat, stupid husband who thinks hes macho and gets into problems. We have his skinny, attractive wife who is somewhat smart and uses that to put down her husand and prove that shes really the man and we have the crazy person that lives with them to provide more entertainment value when there are dull moments. Yep this show is just a average sickcom. Sending a joke out every five minutes hoping that there all hits but only half of them are slightly funnymoreless

    I could watch episodes over and over. All cast members brought their 'A' game to the table. Kevin was crazy funny every episode and Leah was beautiful and funny.This show was flawless from pilot to finale. Enjoy the pretty colors!!

    Anybody who knows me would probably be shocked at this review, as am anything but a harsh or judgmental person. This having been stated, I can tell you that although I would certainly stop to help a beggar in Bangladesh, or an alcoholic injured on a skid row street, if Doug or Carrie Heffernan were run over as I was driving by, it would take all my will power not to turn around and run over them again. These were the most useless, empty, shallow, ignorant sitcom characters I have ever seen in my 72-plus years on the planet.moreless

  • Endlessly funny! It's a show you can watch again and again. Please bring it back!

    I recently picked up the complete series set on dvd (LOVE the IPS Truck design for the dvd case by the way) and I'm hooked. I had only ever seen a few episodes before and I instantly knew it was great. Well worth the price and it's an excellent value. I really love Doug and Arthur. They're hilarious together. Even Carrie is funny from time to time. Truely it's a great show that'll just continue to be funnier and funnier every time it's shown. I encourage everyone to watch this highly addictive series. Great work for such a great show :D!moreless
