 They've gotten nasty and hateful. This is comedy? July 26, 2008
This started out as a funny, good natured comedy with Doug and Cary a sometimes quarrelsome but ultimately loving couple, a la The Honeymooners.
Somewhere in the middle of the run, they started turning nasty and hateful towards each other, with hardly a hint of the affection that made it funny in the beginning. I'm sorry, but I don't particularly care to watch two people yell and scream at each other for a half hour.
And did they really think they were being "cutting edge" by having the character spout the word "frigging" or "frickin" ten times an episode? How sophomoric can you get? Makes me realize how really great Frasier was!
This one jumped the shark back in the third of fourth episode and I made it this far only because I made the mistake of buying the Complete Series and hated to waste my money. But I've decided I'd rather waste my money than my time.

 Kevin James King of Queens & King of Comedy February 8, 2008
Love King of Queens.excellent show. Can't get any better than Carrie and Dougie..........and without the father involved. Hillarious stuff.
Another great thing about the King of Queens boxed sets October 16, 2007
I've left a couple of comments for other KofQ compilations. However, one of the BEST things about all of the boxed sets is they are on only three disks. If you are a diehard KofQ fan as I am, you can have marathon viewings without getting off the couch to change disks. That's the way Doug would do it: sit on the couch for the long ride--snacks within reach. I love Raymond, but 5 discs are too much. They take up a lot of room and you have to get off the sofa to change disks too often. Go for the King--its much funnier than Raymond and more user friendly.
GREAT SHOW. GREAT SEASON. BUT FLAWED DISCS. October 12, 2007
No need to add to what others here have said. This show was fantastic from Day 1, and was so at least through the end of this last full season. It's my favorite main-stream comedy, ever! (Arrested Development wasn't really mainstream.)
However, Discs 2 and 3 fade to black after the intro Anti-Piracy screen and the Warning (Interpol) screen, and never come back. This is on a Philips player that plays every other of my hundreds of DVD's just fine.
Has anyone else had this problem?
