The 90s - King of Queens [1998-2007] - Baby, all my life I will be driving home to you

Quote:

Taking place in Rego Park, Queens, New York, a blue-collar married couple, Doug, a deliveryman, and Carrie, a secretary at a law firm, who both live with Carrie's oddball father, Arthur, try to make the best of what they got while trying to make their marriage somewhat normal and getting through tiny problems that they have together, even the occasional run-in with Carrie's father.

Easily my favourite show ever.

Who were your favourite characters? Mine were Carrie and Holly.

Please add me.

Holly was so great. I love how they got a dog walker to walk Arthur.

I know right! It was quite random but I loved the love/hate relationship between Carrie and Holly, or rather that Holly was petrified of her.

Lou Ferrigno was always cute on there too.

I was watching it the other day and it was the ep where Carrie was [or thought?] she was pregnant and she went to a baby store and the actress who plays Holly worked there. I believe this was several years before she was brought on to play Holly.

Poor Holly, lol. Carrie could be quite scary at times.

I love Spence!

**Evie** · 07-06-2009, 04:23 AM

I love Kevin's speaking voice, Kayla have I ever mentioned it? He has perfect enunciation [to me]. Except when he's exasperated and he sounds like hes about to have a heart attack.

Aw Spence. I like that they changed his mother from a chain smoking cradle snatcher to just a creepy old lady who was mad keen on Arthur, despite him constantly rejecting her.

PiCkLeS4dAwSoN · 07-06-2009, 04:26 AM

I liked that change in Spence's mom too, if only 'cause she was then portrayed by Anne Meara. And I adore Jerry Stiller/Anne Meara.

No, you've never mentioned it, Evie.

Arthur's just too funny. Saw the ep the other day where he moved out of Doug and Carries house for a bit.

What is everyones favourite eps?

I have so many. SO many.

The funniest one I watched recently is the one where Doug persuades Carrie to cut her hair for a few thousand dollars, even though the whole ep is basically everyone laughing at Carrie.

And the one after Doug loses some weight and they go away on their anniversary and get lost in the woods. The way he gets on her back about being jealous that the balance has shifted and he's now the hottie in the relationship..

Anyway, the chemistry between them was great, they really were like an old married couple.

I dont really have a favourite...dont watch it enough to. But I think I like the eps more in the middle of their run....wasnt a huge, huge fan of the ones near the end.
