Why is it whenever I turn on the TV I only ever see the same thing? Everybody Loves Raymond has taken over the airwaves. It doesn’t matter what day it is or what time, one thing that I can always count on is Ray Romano’s big goofy mug on my TV screen.
I don’t mind reruns. I love reruns. But whatever happened to Roseanne, or The Cosby Show, or Charles in Charge? Okay, maybe not that last one, but I’m confident that better shows than Raymond exist. They must; I’ve seen them.
New episodes are still being made, so why should I have to suffer twice as much by also being subjected to “classic” episodes? It’s not like episodes are as memorable as those of Seinfeld or I Love Lucy. No one ever says, “Hey, remember that episode of Raymond with the Soup Nazi?” or “Remeber that time that Raymond’s brother sang Babaloo?”
Not everybody loves Raymond. Some of us despise Raymond.
fink says:
Sure Raymond doesn’t wash up after dinner, drinks straight form the carton and more often than not doesn’t replace a new toilet roll when the last one is finished, but other than that, he’s okay in my book.

Zombie Claire says:
So much anger against innocent Raymond. Amateur psychology tells me you must actually be angry at something else. What is really bugging you?? Is it the Ontario election? The war in Iraq?
Please don’t hurt Raymond with your words when you really mean to hurt your mother or maybe your coworkers!
I like how the taller brother is ignored in his family and goes crazy because it’s all about Raymond—I relate to that, friend.
You should give Raymond a chance. Everybody loves him.
Robot Johnny says:
I’d still rather watch old reruns of Amen! or The Roepers.
ry says:
hear! hear! remember that time on jon stewart when he made fun of george dubya? oh wait.....
Ben says:
I whole-heartedly agree with you. That show drives me nuts and it boggles my mind that Ray romano is the highest paid guy on TV. What is the world coming to? We all know the highest paid guy on TV should be Jon Stewart.
emily says:
I fucking hate Raymond. I hate him and his boring-ass wife and his crude, unsophisticated parents and his bean bag of a brother. I hate that I know so much about Raymond and his borderline retarded family. I hate him, I hate him, I hate him.
Um, I think I just hate. Please forgive me.
james says:
I told him he was asking for trouble by naming his show “Everybody Loves Raymond.” He meant it ironically, of course, but who knew that one day, I think it was April 6, 2003, that everybody would, in fact, love Raymond. And then would come the inevitable backlash, which we’re seeing now. I thought if he just toned it down a little, maybe “Everybody’s Fond of Raymond” or “Everyone Thinks Raymond’s Alright” that he could have avoided this, but you know Raymond.
Sara says:
I also hate Raymond. The show is a bunch of 1950’s bullshit. His wife is a doormat and he is the biggest asshole EVER. Who treats their wife like that? Oh, and married people DO have sex OFTEN, despite shows like this which would have you think women somehow don’t like sex. But then, would you have sex with a guy who looks like Raymond?
Tonya says:
Wow and I thought I was the only one who hates Raymond. I hate him because he is weak and his wife should leave him, because he lets his mother disrespect her. He is not a man he is a mouse and his wife if STUPID

ik says:
It’s simple. People have different thresholds for what they consider amusing. Some people have a very low threshold, we call them “easily entertained,” and these are the people who treat Raymond as..."funny." In reality, it’s not funny. It’s absolutely fucking stupid. Anyone who enjoys NBC/CBS/ABC comedies is clearly a sucker for poor-quality comedy. Enough said.
Sygin says:
This show is aimed at the 70-100 IQ range. Most people have an IQ of 70-100 and therfore it is popular.
ie. If everybody loves raymoundofcrap the ‘everybody’ = STUPID.
Jamison says:
I also hate this fucking character. There are so many times when I’ve come across this show and I think HOW could anyone like this character? So selfish - so self-centered - such a kiss-ass. People who say “ooh, you have deeper issues” - well, yeah, I hate those sort of people in real life, and I damn sure don’t want to watch them on television!! Thank God this is the last season for this bullshit -

jec says:
Raymond is a total retard. I have never seen such a spineless, wimpy shell of a man. He is helping in making a more effeminate generation of men. He deserves to be castrated.
Kick says:
Raymond is fine, its his show that sucks. Seriously, its a bunch of malcontents arguing continually. Why would other humans choose to watch this nonsense. I am puzzled, and I have a significant concern for a public that enjoys this kind of domestic strife.

DEAR RAYMOND-HATER...(MESSAGE POSTED ON SEPTEMBER 7)
DO YOU EVER WATCH EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND???? SOMETHING MAKES ME BELIEVE THAT YOU DONT..AND THATS A GOOD THING. YOU DONT DESERVE TO WATCH THAT SHOW--SIMPLY PUT:IT IS TOO GOOD FOR YOU. I THINK THAT YOU WERE ONCE AN ASPIRING ACTOR WHO PERFORMED AT THE SAME “COMEDY CLUB” AS RAY, YOU PROBABLY THOUGHT THAT YOU WERE GOING TO BE SOOOO GOOD...NOW YOU ARE LIVING IN A VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER,EATING A STEADY DIET OF GOVERNMENT CHEESE, AND KIDNAPPING AND SEXUALLY ABUSING 10 YEAR-OLD BOYS IN YOUR SPARE TIME--WHICH YOU HAVE ALOT OF, IM SURE, CONSIDERING THAT YOU ARE A PATHETIC UNEMPLOYED IDIOT. RAYMOND AND THAT CAST ARE MORE SUCCESSFUL THAN YOU WILL EVER BE AND THAT IS WHATS WRONG WITH YOU. GET A LIFE, GET A HOUSE, AND BY THE WAY--IM SURE RAY ROMANO DOESN’T MISS THE SUPPORT THAT YOU FAIL TO GIVE HIM
Anon says:
I actually found this website because I typed in everybody hates Raymond cos I hate him and that poncy show so much. Stupid mother with her weird mouth-it’s not normal to descend upon your fully grown son and his wife like that. His brother and his monotone voive and his stupide wife who half the time can’t keep a straight face despite the fact that she’s meant to be a comedic actress!!! I’m form Scotland so we’re tortured with the bloody programme morning till night dammit dammit!! Can’t take his stupid voice anymore! Sorry about that xxx
hannah milnes says:
I HOPE THAT EVERYONE WHO WROTE THAT THEY HATE RAY AND/OR THE SHOW, DIES. I TRULY DO. I HOPE THAT YOU ALL F’ING DIE!!!! YOU ARE A BUNCH OF IDIOTS. YOU PROBABLY ALL THINK THAT “THE REAL WORLD” AND “PUNK’D” ARE “LIKE TOTALLY THE BEST SHOWS EVER” OR MAYBE YOURE THE TYPE OF FREAKS THAT LIKE DISTURBING UNREALISTIC BS LIKE “THE SOPRANOS” OR “THE L-WORD”. ELR PORTRAYS REAL LIFE, IF THAT BOTHERS YOU, THEN WHY DONT YOU JUST GO TO MCDONALDS, GET A HAPPY MEAL, PLAY WITH THE TOY ON THE WAY HOME--THEN SIT DOWN ON YOUR COUCH AND FLIP ON POKEMON OR YUGIO!?!?!?!? YOURE PROBABLY UNEMPLOYED IDIOTS ANYWAY..YOU WONT MISS OUT ON ANYTHING--MAYBE THERES A CLIFFORD MARATHON ON SOMEWHERE. THE ONLY REASON SOME DUMBASSES HATE RAY ROMANO IS BECAUSE HE IS HIGHLY SUCCESSFUL, AND APPARENTLY AT THE BEGINNING OF HIS CAREER--NO ONE THOUGHT HE WOULD BE THIS SUCCESSFUL....WHO THE HELL KNOWS. ALL THAT I KNOW IS THAT HE (AND THE REST OF THE CAST OF ELR) ARE MORE SUCCESSFUL AND BETTER HUMAN BEINGS THAN YOU NEGATIVE, WHINY, PUNY-ASS WHUSSIES WHO ARE SO VERY CRITICAL OF HIM WILL EVER BE!!!!! I HOPE THAT I GET SOME SHITTY REPLIES---THAT WAY I CAN HACK INTO YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEMS, GET YOUR ACCOUNT NUMBER, FROM THERE FIND YOUR ADDRESS...TRACK YOUR ASSES DOWN AND HIDE OUT IN YOUR HOUSE, HOLDING YOUR “FAMILY” HOSTAGE, WAITING FOR YOU TO GET OFF THE SHITTER---THEN WHEN YOU DO ILL SLIT YOUR THROAT--AND THEN DOUSE YOUR BODY IN LIGHTER FLUID AND WATCH YOU BURST INTO FLAMES.
SINCERELY,
ELR’S #1 FAN

Hannah...I’m your best friend, really...we both go to the same school, in the same grade, we’ve known each other since 2nd grade. Your dad stepped in my vomit for pity’s sake...but come on man. The show is pathetic. It’s going nowhere and Ray is a 6 foot loser. Get over it. Get over him. Get over the obsession. Do something with your life and realize that he’s never going to be a part of it. 10 years from now, after the shows been cancelled for 7 years and Ray’s nowhere to be heard of and you’re sitting at home clutching the DVD box of Welcome to Moose Port like some psychotic obese mother of 4, you’re going to realize that all of this time that you spent wasting away in front of your TV was just that...wasted time. You need serious help, and you need to leave all of the poor people who hate ray and love hillary duff the hell alone. So help me Christo if I find another posting like this one I’m going to walk my fat self down to the guidance department and have a certain counselor give you some certain help...and by help i mean shock-therapy. Now quit the crap. Thank you...Keilah Clay

Hello. We are the parents of “hannah milnes” (not real name). We are very sorry for any of the pain--or anger that she has caused you. She literally has numerous mental disorders. she is a bi-polar, paranoid schizophrenic, chemically-depressed individual. Almost 95% of what she says and does she does not have any control over. We have only a brief idea of who “Keilah” is. It’s just another one of our daughter’s many personalities...she’s been developing them since early childhood. Please don’t blame her.

Ken Silverman says:
Finally, someone has the courage to say that this show is the lamest thing on television today. I have watched a number of episodes of this show, just to see what all the fuss was about, and I have to say, I was completely blown away that this kind of pandering programming is what passes for entertainment these days. How, pray tell, can EVERY single TV critic in the U.S. sing this show’s praises? The humor is for the IQ-challenged, the “stars” do nothing put spout unfunny put-downs to one another, and I’m sorry, but Brad Garrett’s “delivery” is something a 4-year-old could do without any guidance. No wonder the rest of the world laughs at the U.S.!!!!!
Jordan G says:
I watch Everybody Loves Raymond daily and by now I know Ray Romano’s personality in real life. You psychos up there who are calling Ray Romano fans are wasting their life are morons. It’s almost sad. Everybody Loves Raymond is a SHOW for god’s sake! Ray Romano will also be most likely at least 100 times more successful than any of us will ever be, and I’m sure he’s worked very hard to get where he is. So all of you anger cases just do us all a favor and cram it. Go make something of your life instead of sitting on your lazy ass trying to find something to complain about. Maybe some day you will become a 10th of what Ray is, but I doubt it.
Tyler says:
Yeah Jordan’s right, you guys dont know the first think about Ray. If you have a problem with him just ignore him and his show you stupid ass. You don’t have to go on a site just to complain about him and get people that happen to enojoy his show, not to like his show. Another thing about one of the earlier entries where he recalled Raymond’s family to be idiots and have weird....mouths(Annon-March 4,4:01)makes the show FUNNIER you dildo. If you just can’t take the hilarity and reality, go check if superman is still on.
olivia says:
hannah....or whoever you are?? you are so funny. i possible peed my pants. when you get back from your therapy, me you and shannon can plot revenge on these raymond haters! i know how much you love him(the shakira walk!).
Kevin says:
So...is this “Everybody Loves Raymond” some type of TV show or something?
kevinurstupid says:
DUH ITS A SHOW YOU FREAKING MIND ROTTED MORON!
Andy says:
Go back to high school and learn proper spelling and grammar, the half of you.
Oh yeah, Everybody Loves Raymond is a pathetic TV show.. but so is 90% of everything else on the line-up. So what?
