Watchseries; I just wanted to write this review in response to some of the other reviews some reviewers left. Some of the people who made reviews in the past need to seek professional help. This is a work of fiction. None of the characters are real. Nobody is saying you have to like this show. If you don't like it fine, don't watch. Nobody's making you. But to come on here and insult and put down the people who did enjoy this show. To put down Americans, to put down someone's physical appearance and be glad an actor/actress hasn't been on tv lately is way over the top. Some people even over analyzed this show, like watching this show is going to turn anybody who watches it into a sexist monster. Get real people. It's just a fictional tv show. Again if you don't like it or find it funny, that's your right. I find it funny and enjoyable most times I guess to some viewers I must be an idiot. Well so be it.

Everybody Loves Raymond watchseries. It took me a long time to get into this show because most of my friends kept putting it down. I'm now addicted to ELR and bad luck if nobody else I know admits to watching it! Apart from 'Becker' no other current American comedies really appeal to me.
What do I like about ELR? The way Ray sets off events without knowing how, then stands back and watches the results of his unconscious actions. Both the cast and the scripts are first-rate. Robert of course has to be my favourite character; he reminds me in some ways of Jack Benny. Favourite episode has to be the one in which Ray's parents back the car through the front wall. One of the great moments of television!
Long may this series continue.

Ray may be a little silly, but the whole show is funny. It never fails to make me laugh. The cast was well chosen, and the writers are well-educated and have a big sense of humor making family issues a laugh-fest every Monday Nights.

I'm not a big fan of TV. I think most of it is terribly contrived and has very little to do with the lives of normal people. This show is different. The fights they get into, the disputes, everything is true and funny. Ray is the beleaguered protagonist and his parents and brother are absolute scene stealers. This show is just wonderful. The writing is good and I can really see these sorts of things happening in my family. It is much easier to watch when it is someone else's family though.

This show is by far one of the best comedies I have seen in a long time! Great acting, writing....everything and what makes this show so good is the fact that it is based on the life of Ray Romano (unless you KNOW it, do not write it). I consider this family to be the poster children for dysfunctional families but are so funny and entertaining in the process. Loving this!

This show is a classic. Honestly, it's funny, sweet, and at times emotionally powerful. I love to sit down and watch this show with my family.
