I had the flu last winter and took down about a week's worth of episodes. Some observations: 

- Jerry Stiller just kills it. Full Frank Constanza and he appears in every episode. No Seinfeld every once every 10 episodes stuff. 

- Patton Oswalt is really funny. Second best performance behind Constable Bob. 

- Victor Williams as Deacon is a good straight man to whatever Kevin James is trying to do. 

- Leah Remini. Man alive, her weight swings around like a roller coaster. 10 one season. Fat in another season. Perplexing sexual chemistry with Kevin James throughout. 

- Lou Ferringo is great as the neighbor. 

- Nicole Sullivan was pretty good on MAD TV She's good on Kings of Queens too as Jerry Stiller's walker/caretaker. 

- Gary Valentine is pretty good as the worthless cousin. Funny chemistry with Patton Oswalt. 

- Rachel Dratch is peak weirdo/Debbie Downer.

- Kevin James is probably the worst part of the show, but he's predictable. Usually doing something stupid/fat and getting scolded by Leah Remini. 

I would recommend this show to the unemployed, bed ridden, and retirees.

High praise, indeed.

It's a great guilty pleasure - love this show.  Now my favorite comedies, in no particular order, are Cheers, It's Always Sunny and Arrested Development.  But there's something about King of Queens that always sucks me in.

I usually pop in and watch an episode in the Leah Remini thinner episodes. Was smoke. 

She was pregnant one season, watching them try to hide it behind big sweaters/purses/desks in every shot was entertaining.

This. She was on another show with Sharon Lawrence called Fired Up. They were both pure smoke.

Lawrence has held up exceptionally well.

Always enjoy this show whenever its on.   Arthur Spooner is very close to the top of my favorite TV characters of all time.   He was hilarious in every ep.

This show is way too underrated.  And count me as a Kevin James fan, at least in this show.

This was odd to me.  It's like she hates his guts always, but wants to bang everyone once in a while. 

 

Edit: Just thought about my own marriage and realized this is prob a more accurate depiction than most.

Always stop to take in an episode every now and then. It can be downright funny. His new show? Not so much, unless it got better in Season 2.

Agree with pretty much everything in the og post. This is also one of my shameless pleasure shows. If it's on I'm likely stopping by for an episode if I'm just flipping channels.

Remini is definitely my style, and yeah that chemistry is kinda odd, but her and Kevin James really have it.

They writers seemed willing to give a lot of the supporting cast some shine too. I vaguely remember some episodes revolving around Stiller/Dog-Walker, Stiller/Deacon, Kevin James/Deacon, etc. There's enough shenanigans to go around.

i typically watch an episode or 2 every night as i fall asleep (it's on nick at night every night).  it's good, solid mindless entertainment that has some funny moments (agreed that jerry stiller as arthur is the best part of the show).

I'm a big fan of King of Queens. Arthur is one of the great characters in sitcom history.
