Product Description:
The man. The myth. The driver. Doug Heffernan (Kevin James) is The King of Queens but his wife Carrie (Leah Remini) really rules the roost. Doug is the ultimate guy s guy but he loves Carrie so much he s willing to sacrifice his tricked-out rec room (plus his 70-inch TV) so that her father Arthur (Jerry Stiller) can move in a decision he s regretted ever since. Doug s free time is split between quality time with his wife and play time with his buds. A parade of crazy neighbors and oddball citizens of New York s middle-class borough help make this show the reigning comedy champ. The King of Queens proves you don t have to have a huge castle to live like royalty.System Requirements:Starring: Kevin James Jerry Stiller Leah Remini Lisa Rieffel Running Time: 622 Min.

In the sitcom The King of Queens, comedian Kevin James has created a new archetype: the sensitive lug. This deceptively simple comedy bounces along because delivery man Doug Heffernen (James), though completely a guy's guy, constantly struggles to keep the world around him in a delicate emotional balance. Meanwhile, his wife Carrie (Leah Remini), though utterly feminine (and one of the sexiest women on television), uses the kind of no-nonsense rational approach that's usually a man's province. Add to this mix Carrie's father Arthur (Jerry Stiller), whose life as a fussy, self-absorbed retiree makes him more like their child than an adult, and you've got the building blocks for an excellent and durable show.
The first season of The King of Queens quickly found its voice with stories firmly rooted in the everyday world, rarely spinning off into absurdity--and why should it, when there's such a wealth of humor to be found in petty neuroses (when Doug gets assigned an attractive young woman as a trainee at work, he gets hurt when Carrie isn't remotely jealous), ill-advised scheming (to weasel out of a traffic ticket, Carrie agrees to go out on a date with the cop who pulled her over), and juggling obligations to friends and family (just about every episode). Brilliant comic bits abound; one classic moment features Doug and Carrie having a furious argument in absolute silence at a cello concert--a scene that fuses deft physicality, well-developed characters, and sheer silliness. The King of Queens is a delight. --Bret Fetzer

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Great comedy
One of my favourite sitcoms, The King Of Queens is nicely presented in this DVD box. Image and sound quality are fine, the menu handling is quick and easy.
Rating: - One of the Greatest TV Series in History!
King of Queens is definitely one of those rare TV series where you can just sit down in front of the tube and watch for hours without being bored once. I am living proof since I watched the entire season and special features in two days time. Hey, I had to sleep sometime!
I am a huge fan of physical comedy and Kevin James brings it in that area, but like many people who watch, I am an Arthur (Jerry Stiller) fan. He is definitely a show in itself and is a great talent. Not to say that the rest of the cast isn't great. The chemistry just works for everyone, and this season is just great. I think that my favorite moment of this season has to be Doug and Carrie's conversation at the wedding about the short fling she had with the groom. This is just a great DVD that I know I will be watching again, very soon!
Rating: - my sides hurt from laughter
Oh my gosh. I did not watch this show when it originally aired and I did not know what I was missing. This show was sweet, down to earth, and random (in a good way). There are some classic moments in the season that had me laughing out loud. Great show and great season.
Rating: - What Fun!
The King of Queens--all of the seasons, including this one--are so funny! The cast works very well together. I have watched the DVDs several times now and I just don't get sick of it the way I might watching other TV show episodes. Kevin James and Jerry Stiller are especially hilarious!
Rating: - Beyond Funny
I bought this set for my nephew for Christmas last year and watched the whole thing with him. I love this show.. they cast is so great together and they are so funny. No one is funnier than Jerry Stiller, though. He is a comic genius. Definitely one of the best shows out of the last decade, I just wish it were still on.
