dttruman August 27, 2021 Share August 27, 2021 Am watching the episode where Deacon has a sandwich named after him (Sandwich Out). The episode is humorous as always but it looks like something happen that wouldn't usually take place. A customer just had a "Deacon", enjoyed it and told the guys that and wanted Deacon to autograph the menu. Now, does the customer plan on walking out with the menu? Sorry for nitpicking, but it just seemed weird. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-6974268

TVMovieBuff December 3, 2021 Share December 3, 2021 Christmas episodes! KOQ has a lot. They must have done 3 Christmas episodes every season. My favorite is Ovary Action. Where Doug & Carrie want to get pregnant and Carrie is ovulating on the weekend Doug's parents are staying at the house. It has Jane Lynch as the fertility doctor. And a hilarious scene at the kitchen table where Doug & Carrie try to delicately explain to Joe & Janet why they need a little privacy this weekend. Janet: Dougie can't make love with us in the next room! Joe: Why the hell not? He did it in high school! 1 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-7152886
dttruman December 29, 2021 Share December 29, 2021 Did anyone watch the "Dire Strayts" episode lately? At the beginning Doug and Ray are discussing how much Ray owes Doug for their golf bets and then they go inside. What gets me, is that they are still wearing their golf shoes. Back then they could have still had metal spikes on their golf shoes or even those plasitc spikes. Both could have made nasty scratches on a non-carpeted floor. What also bothers me is that Ray and Kevin love to play golf and they should have caught this mistake, you only wear golf shoes on the golf course, in pro shop and or the designated areas.

TVMovieBuff January 9, 2022 Share January 9, 2022 I have seen every episode of King of Queens so many times I can't even guess. There is only one scene in the entire series that doesn't work, and here it is. In Hi-Def Jam, when Doug finagles an invitation from Carrie's boss Pruzan to watch the Super Bowl on his hi-def TV set. The scene where Doug discovers hi-def TV, delivering a package to a harried housewife and see's her TV. A kid's off-screen voice yells Mom where's the peanut butter, she yells in the pantry, the kid yells there isn't any, she yells then there isn't any. The kid asks again, the mother yells that if the kid doesn't shut up she's going to smack him. Then she is rude to Doug, saying "are we finished here?" when Doug is asking questions about the TV. It doesn't work. Nothing is going on, why is she so stressed? The scene is just a dud, not Kevin James fault. That is a pretty good record though. Of all the thousands of scenes in the series, I can only say ONE didn't land. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-7219471

Egg McMuffin February 22, 2022 Share February 22, 2022 The actress who played Carrie’s younger sister, Lisa Rieffel, was someone whom TV casting directors seemed to like in the 90s, but she never quite clicked on the shows she joined (or she wound up on series that were cancelled). She essentially replaced Kristy McNichol on Empty Nest as the never-before-seen sister Emily, but was gone after a half season. She replaced Julie Haggerty as the secretary on Delta Burke’s short lived series Women of the House (spinoff of Designing Women). She was Sharon Gless’ stepdaughter on her short lived Rosie O’Neill series (which Gless did after Cagney and Lacey). She was Ann Jillian’s daughter on the sitcom Jillian did after It’s a Living. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-7306443

This is one of the first things I notice about any show I watch...whether the real exterior they use matches up with the set design. It almost never does, and it drives me crazy, but that's probably the architect in me. Most other people seem to not even notice, lol. I'd never seen KoQ before the pandemic started, and now it's one of my favorite sitcoms. I recently started watching the re-runs again. I think the single funniest storyline is the one where Doug pisses off the waitress and then she wants to fight him out in the parking lot. The visual of her pacing back and forth outside the window and then staring in at Doug with daggers in her eyes makes me howl every time. I think that actress playing the waitress was perfect in that part. Someone upthread mentioned what they thought was the only scene in the series that doesn't work, but I think there are several. I just saw the episode where Doug lies to Carrie about having to work late when he really goes to play mudball with the guys. When he gets home all dirty, he tells Arthur he's going up to shower and not to tell Carrie he saw him. Carrie comes in seconds later and talks to Arthur for like a minute, pokes her head in the living room and hears the shower running, and less than a minute later Doug is back downstairs all cleaned up and in dry, clean clothes. How did he have time to do all that?? Another scene that doesn't work for me is when Doug shows up to Carrie's work function at some penthouse apartment and decides to change in the elevator because the front desk guy won't let him change in the back room or whatever. I get that they needed that to happen for the joke of the elevator door opening into the apartment while Doug's pants were down, but what kind of idiot thinks he has time to change clothes in an elevator?? I know he said he was expecting a hallway, but...what if someone had been in the hall? It just doesn't work as a joke for me. Doug could've just changed in his truck.

Gemma Violet June 30, 2022 Share June 30, 2022 I think if I had to pick a favorite episode it would be the New Orleans one, where Doug and Carrie receive a $1,500 check for a wedding gift and want to use it for a trip to N.O. The couple who gave them the gift want to go also since N.O. is their favorite place. Doug and Carrie lie to them about going to N.O. because they don't want them along. The second half of the episode involves Doug's increasing paranoia that they will bump into the other couple at any moment, from him leaping across the bed yelling, "Caller I.D.!" to hurling Carrie's cell phone into the Mississippi River as a jazz band starts playing "When the Saints Go Marching In."

They are playing King of Queens, The Office, Frasier, and some other sitcoms I don't care about, which is great. This week, they're airing the finales of KoQ and The Office, which again -- great. You'd think after that, they'd re-start everything with the pilot, right? Nope! They're going to some random episodes in like, Season 5! Who makes these decisions?! I think when networks order these sitcoms they have special prices. When they get them in chronological order they are paying a higher price, but they get more episodes or seasons. Some seasons may be at higher prices also because they were more popular. I.E. the Seinfeld tv series. Many people didn't think season 1 or even most of season 2 weren't popular and thought the series would get cancelled. But season 3 was a blockbuster and Seinfeld became one of the most popular sitcoms of all time.

When he gets home all dirty, he tells Arthur he's going up to shower and not to tell Carrie he saw him. Carrie comes in seconds later and talks to Arthur for like a minute, pokes her head in the living room and hears the shower running, and less than a minute later Doug is back downstairs all cleaned up and in dry, clean clothes. How did he have time to do all that?? Lol, I just watched that episode tonight for the first time. You're right--it was about one minute. So, Doug went upstairs, undressed, showered, dried off, got re-dressed, and was back downstairs in one minute. Now maybe there's a bit of dialog between Carrie and Authur that was edited out in syndication. But even with an extra minute, it would still be the fastest shower in history. Lol.

I always assumed that they took advantage of that all too familiar " dramatic license that allows little certain things to happen w/o proper explanations 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-7531865
Snow Apple July 2, 2022 Share July 2, 2022 Today I was thinking about the episode where Carrie wants to stay at a hotel instead of Doug's parents while visiting. I totally agree with her, even though they dragged their friends into the mess and the hotel was taken over by spring-breakers. When I'm on vacation, I want to eat what I want and come and go where/when I want. Carrie and Doug had an actual curfew! LOL. 1 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-7532337

If that happen to me I would go buy a camera take a few pictures of that giant bat (as Doug refers to it) and then demand a complete refund or a free two weeks stay. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/4081-king-of-queens-general-discussion/page/6/#findComment-7532627
