Now Playing: King of Queens
Topic: ramblings
I must say, the show King of Queens has got to be one of the best shows ever :) I mean most shows these days are funny, but none of them makes me laugh out loud as much or as often as King of Queens.
Doug (Kevin James) plays the husband, Carrie (Leah Rimini) plays the wife, and Arthur (Jerry Stiller) plays Carrie's dad who moved in to live with the both of them since episode one. Most sitcoms have married couples with children; in this show, Arthur plays their 85 year old child. Arthur is definitely the most excentric person you've never met. He screams at the top of his lungs constantly, and of course is slightly senile in his age.
Doug plays a delivery driver for IPS (International Parcel Service) and Carrie is a legal secretary. Doug's personality mimics mine pretty well: overweight guy who loves football, hanging with the boys, and his girl even though he's not the best at showing it. Carrie is a little on the high maintenance side, loves her designer clothing, and can be short tempered at time. Together they live the "blue collar American life"...only unfortunately they're stuck with Arthur.
Seinfeld was definitely my favorite show when it was on tv...King of Queens is slowly approaching the "best television show ever" status. I definitely recommend the show to everyone. Doesn't matter how crappy of a mood I am in, this show always cheers me up :)
