Kevin Can Wait

This was mostly a cute show last season, but the season 2 cast change is a big mistake: the firing of talented Erinn Hayes is a tragedy, as is the hiring of Leah Remini. I have zero interest in seeing The King of Queens II - 10 years later. The character interaction between James and Remini is stale. I cringed trying to watch the first episode ... bad jokes, canned laughter ... huge mistake.

You had a chance to do something completely different than king of queens. Kevin and his wife a great chemistry on the show. It would have been a success but when you put in Leah Remini you ruined the show. It was like watching king of queens all over again. You had success with king of queens but you already did that, this was your chance to move forward and do something different but you ruined it.

What a difference from season 1, oh wait there is.....they fired the wife & down played the bantering with the son in law. Adding Leah Remini was a disaster.

Enough of L Remini! The first season was fantastic, then they kill the off the best actor and bring her in!!!??? What were they thinking? Give the air time to something and somebody worth watching ..... not Remini.....Just Disgusting

. . .for a better show.

This show is an example of al la carte television. There is nothing original and it simply is put together from pieces of other shows with King of Queens being the foundation.

They took King of Queens and made almost the same pilot from All in the Family with touch of Coach. The boyfriend character is almost a carbon copy as Stuart from Coach.

The plot itself of the pilot played out like your typical laugh- track comedy, and it ended like an episode of Home Improvement.

There were some funny lines, only those delivered by Kevin James. The oldest girl seemed to be the only one to hold her own with Kevin's humor. The woman that plays his wife is awful. Her acting reminds me of Isabel Sanford from The Jeffersons. She delivers lines like a high school play.
