Summary: King of Queens
Review: King of Queens is a great show that will give you a workout from laughing so hard. This will go down in history as on of the greatest sitcom of all times. It is funny and the average married couple can relate to it. I know that once your start watching this DVD you will find yourself watching show after show and over again. I can't wait for season two to be released. If you are looking for a great comedy where you can watch it and relate to it at the same time, then this is a must have for you.

Summary: great comedy!
Review: King of Queens is a lot like Wings, underrated! It's easily the best sitcom on the air...(personally i think it's ten times better than the rote Everybody Love Raymond) I should dock a star for lackluster commentary track (how about some actual information? and where is Leah?? Come on...it takes half an hour!) Oh well, the show is too good so it gets 5 stars, Bring on season three!

Summary: The King Of All Kings
Review: Right Now, The King Of Queens is the best comedy sitcom on NETWORK television (Curb Your Enthusiasm is the funniest show on television). This show is brillant, mainly because it doesn't try to hard to make you laugh. From a guys view, most of the stuff that Doug does in the show, I have personally done at one time or another. Arthur (Jerry Stiller) is absolutly hilarious as Carrie's (Leah Remini) father. Everybody has met an old person like Arthur before. Oh yeah, speaking of Leah Remini, she is so damn hot and funny. She is the kind of girl that I would want to marry. A girl who can be a really big pain, but at the same time is very, very sexy. The best moments of the show are when Doug and Arthur are arguing with eachother. i.e. Doug bought cereal that had 3-D glasses in them. Arthur got the 3-D glasses but didn't have the box that was in 3-D. Doug had it. So they tried to compromise taking turns, but they ended up fighting over them and breaking the glasses and the cereal box. If you like good humor, that at times gets "adult" (well, at least for network television) then check out The King Of Queens.

Summary: Really Funny
Review: Thank you for that show!
I love it, really. It's the funniest show on TV I've ever seen.
It shows real live. With all options. Good times - bad times - ups and downs.
I am from Austria - not Australia - and sometimes it's hard for me to understand all the jokes, but it is ok. I'm a great fan of that comedy. At the end. If you know "king of queens", just try to get Kevin James' solo program: Sweat the small stuff. It's Great!

Summary: One of the best seasons of any show!
Review: The first season of 'The King of Queens' is one of the funniest seasons of any comedy. Kevin James and Leah Remini are perfect together. The show would not be the same without Stiller's comedic presence. It's a gem. I'd recommend this set to anyone.

Summary: The King of Queens
Review: The King of Queens is a great show. Difference between the honeymooners and the king of queens. The Kramdens live in the depression they don't have anything, Ralph always kicked Norton out of his apartment. Ralph Kramden is really mean. The King of Queens they have everything like a house, furniture, tv set and food in the kitchen. Doug Heffernan is really a nice guy, he reminds of Babe Ruth and Fred Flintstone. He had three friends Spence since he known he was a kid, Deacon his co-worker from IPS, Danny his cousin who really fit in with the gang. The King of Queens doesn't also remind of the honeymooners two shows and one movie Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Cheers and American Pie. Doug Heffernan and Spence Olchin is like Xander Harris, Danny Heffernan is Riley Finn, Arthur Spooner is like Daniel "Oz" Osborne, Deacon Palmer is Rupert Giles, Holly Shumpert is like Willow Rosenberg on Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Doug Heffernan is like Cliff Clavin, Spence Olchin is like Norm Peterson, Arthur Spooner is like Ernie 'Coach' Pantusso, Danny Heffernan is like Woody Boyd, Holly Shumpert is like Carla Tortelli and Carrie Spooner is like Rebecca Howe on Cheers. Doug Heffernan is like Jim Levinstein, Spence Olchin is like Kevin Myers, Deacon Palmer is like Chris 'Oz' Ostreicher, Danny Heffernan is like Paul Finch, Holly Shumpert is like Michelle Flaherty Arthur Spooner is like Jim's Dad on American Pie.

Summary: One of the Most Under-Estimated Hits
Review: THE KING OF QUEENS is one of the funniest shows on television. It is also the most under-rated. Granted: the first few episodes are not very good, but the show quickly picks up later on in the season. KING OF QUEENS has been compared by some to THE HONEYMOONERS. While this show is a lot better, in my opinion, I can definately see the similarities: the humor is often executed in the same fashion; and Kerry's dad (Jerry Stiller) is kind of like a re-incarnated version of Art Carney :). The show may not be everyone's cup of tea. But the reason I like it so much is simply because, unlike most other sitcoms, it's well-written, well-acted (Kevin James is a very under-estimated comedic actor), and it doesn't ever try to be more than it is. So many other comedies seem to stretch for laughs (Whoopi, The Mullets, the final season of Spin City, A Minute with Stan Hooper, etc); and that's why they ultimately fail. Shows such as KING OF QUEENS, EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND, MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE, etc flow effortlessle; the jokes just seem natural. Much like THE COSBY SHOW and CHEERS (Both better shows, but that's really beside the point here), they're also realistic: unlike most other sitcoms, THE KING OF QUEENS mirrors our lives; the ups, the downs, the trials, and the tribulations. And all with a hilarious ending. This is why the show is an under-estimated hit.

Summary: Definite Rewatchability
Review: The King of Queens is the first television series I have purchased on DVD. I had seen a few episodes of the show, and actually bought it because I think it's funny and yet I have not already seen every episode. I was expecting a few laughs, but this series is terrific, and it's a wonderful discovery! The best thing about this collection is that the episodes can be watched several times, and they only get funnier. When there is nothing on TV (all the time), we will pop in one of these DVDs and laugh ourselves silly. In addition, the DVDs come with some good special features -- a few bonus episodes and some extra commentary. Compared to more recent episodes of the show, the first season is funnier. Carrie is meaner in the newer episodes, and Arthur Spooner shows up a lot less. My favorite episode from this collection is Carrie's birthday episode, in which Doug throws a party together for her at the last minute. I think I've watched that episode thirty times by now. "I've just written myself into a corner" has become part of my vernacular. There are lots of great episodes in this collection, and each of them is a laugh riot.

Summary: My review of The King of Queens- The First Season
Review: The King of Queens is the funniest show on TV. Kevin James and Leah Remini and Kevin James as Doug and Carrie Heffernen have such great chemistry as a married couple. I loved Jerry Stiller's character Arthur who plays Carrie's father, because he is so paranoid but lovable. The First Season of The King of Queens is a 3 disc package that includes the entire first season of 25 episodes with 2 bonus episodes. This DVD also has fun extra features like a collection of short funny clips from the show. I also loved listening to the comments of the actors and the creator of the show about the success of the show and the characters they play.
One of my favorite episodes from the first season is entitled Best Man where Doug and Carrie attend the wedding of one of Carrie's old boyfriends and embarass themselves completely. I also loved the episode where Carrie's father Arthur has a romantic fling with Doug's aunt which drives Doug crazy. I really enjoyed the episode where Carrie goes shopping for Thanksgiving dinner, but she has no idea what to buy. I love watching The King of Queens very much. I hope the other 5 seasons of the show are released on DVD eventually.
