King of Queens is my favorite show on TV, hands down. I usually like comedies like Peep Show, The Inbetweeners, Friends, Will & Grace, Family Guy and Thats 70s Show, and out of all these hits is King of Queens. Let me tell you why.
The show King of Queens revolves around an overweight truck driver, Doug Heffernan, and his feisty wife Carrie. Much to Doug's dislike, Carrie's father (played by Ben Stiller's dad) lives in their basement, and tends to interfere with Doug and Carrie's lives a bit too much for their liking.
The threesome, what with their countsome family problems, equals loads of laughs for viewers, as we different scenarios such as Doug telling difficult Carrie that he's got to work all weekend so that he can go gambling with his best friend Deacon and Carrie finding out in hilarious ways, or Doug hiding his beloved fatty food products whilst Carrie is trying to make him diet, or Arthur's constant demands for things such as a hair dye (when he's hardly got any hair) or a cruise when he hasn't got any money and Doug and Carrie pay for everything for him!
All the things that come up are serious issues, but luckily for us, they are all made really funny. All the characters are lovable and you can easily relate to them.
There are 9 series' of King of Queens now, and they are all excellent. There isn't one moment where everything changes, its just the same funniness throughout.
