Tutti amano Raymond

Everybody Loves Raymond is an all-time classic. It's a sitcom that is hilarious because of how realistic it is. It's your everyday family that will remind you of your own. Even though Ray Romano is the star and very funny it's the supporting cast (Brad Garrett, Peter Doyle, Doris Roberts) which separates this from other great sitcoms. While it may not be the best supporting cast ever it's definitely up there. This is a show that's been done numerous times before but not nearly as well. It's also one of those comedies that you can rewatch as many times as you want and it'll still make you laugh.

I love this show. It's hilarious. It has the weird, over protective, annoying, critical mother, the gross, dim-witted father who yells a lot, the over-looked first born brother, and the "perfect" second born son who writes for a newspaper and has a wife and 3 kids. In one way or another, you'll be able to relate with this show. I get mad when I miss an episode, even if I've already seen it. They're all so funny. The acting, writing, and directing are all wonderful. I think it's one of the best shows out there. If you like comedies about real life that aren't cheesy (like those so-called Disney channel comedies) you'll love this show just like I do.

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!

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.

My favorite character of Everybody Loves Raymond is Robert. Robert is the poor soul whose mother obsesses over Raymond and gets no respect from his father. Raymond is a whiny mother's boy and in order to put up with Raymond and his family Debra is a screeching shrew. Robert is the most tolerable character.
