9th season premiere of King of Queens tonight
Can't wait. I'll finally have something to watch while everything else is in reruns.

This show is slightly underrated, it's easily the best of the "overweight/obnoxious guy with hot wife" sitcoms.

Its not like it has much competition in that category with According to Jim. To me the best concept of that comedy was a Fox show by the name of Roc with Charles Dutton

Speaking of According to Jim, what happened to it? I'm not complaining about its absence, but ABC is sucking in the comedy department (and I doubt pairing two new comedies up against Idol next year on Wednesdays will work). They may need Jim to fuel some sort of ratings.

Midseason Wednesdays for ABC
8:00 Jim
8:30 George Lopez
9:00 Knights
9:30 In Case of Emergency
10:00 Lost
I believe

I think Knights of Prosperity had a decent chance at being this year's My Name is Earl... back in October. Now, I think it will suffer a slow death against Idol.

Tonight's episodes were pretty funny. I'm glad to have it back.

I actually think this show and Kevin James are infinitely funnier than Ray Romano and his overrated show ever was.. The best part of Raymond REALLY was the brother who has a shi**y sitcom now on FOX with that Godawful "Til Death Do Us" Gee, call it the curse of SEINFELD all over again but with Brad Garret this time.. By the way, were is Jerry Stiller for this 9th season premiere, a premiere for a sitcom in the month of December of all months which is really sort of strange???

I rarely watch this but it's likeable and I can see why people would be into it. One thing I like about it is the lead couple come across as liking each other underneath the arguments. The problem on Raymond (AKA the bitch and wimp show) was that they just seemed so hostile all the time, if it wasn't for kids they seem like they should have gotten divorced.

Yeah, it is kind of stupid to start the season in December and Stiller wasn't in either of the episodes that aired tonight. Maybe Doug trapped him in the basement or something
