Agreed. Especially if you're a fan of Straight Dope or Snopes.

Raymond's Wife (Deborah) may be a shrew, but c'mon, look at what she has to put up with.  Between Ray's stupidity and whining and his Mother's pettiness and manipulative behaviour, it's a wonder she hasn't snapped totally, purchased a gun and capped the whole famdamily.  I enjoyed that show for a while, Peter Boyle is great, but it's gotten stale.

I hope I never have to refer to a scone in spoken conversation.

I only watched Raymond a couple of times with my ex-gf, and the only thing that stuck with me about the show was the completely overblown laugh track.  Was it just me or is the laugh track for that show more over-the-top than normal for a sitcom?

Peter Boyle is actually the only reason I would watch this show and all the really funny stuff I actually remember is from Peter Boyle...His special 'Thanksgiving #####' is one and the episode where he terrorizes the adult sons was extremely funny....

Everyone Loves Raymond is possibly the most Ironic sitcom name ever.
