The King of Queens: The Complete Series

I watched most of this series during its original TV run. Was happy to get it for a good price. I liked the simple packaging , just cardboard envelopes. Most I buy have these ridiculous plastic holders where the disks are stacked on top of each other. There were a few disks that split second freeze glitches. like one per season. It's funny the things you notice when you binge watch a series. They recycle actors season to season in different parts. There is one young man that I swear plays three or four different roles beginning with annoying kid in movie theater. Then Carries boss from one job is somehow her boss again at her next job. and I'm pretty sure the hot girl from the nail salon is a waitress at the pub later on.

I was skeptical of this. How can they sell nine seasons of a popular show for $35? But I was wrong. The picture and sound quality are great! The only flaw is the lack of close captioning, but that's a small one for most people. And of course the series is hilarious. I wish that their were similar deals on other great sitcoms.

Super fast shipping. Got it a day early. The dvds are in great condition.

Once in a while, a TV series will catch lightning in a bottle, with an interesting premise, intelligent writing, and a stellar cast. "The King Of Queens" was one of those series. International Parcel Service delivery driver Doug Heffernan (Kevin James), and his wife Carrie (Leah Remini) are, in some ways, a modern version of Ralph and Alice Kramden from "The Honeymooners." The main differences are with regards to Carrie, who works outside of the home, and clearly wears the pants in the family. Living with them is Carrie's father Arthur Spooner, played by the brilliant comedic actor Jerry Stiller. Another interesting character is Spence Olchin, played by stand-up comedian Patton Oswalt. I was fortunate enough to see Patton perform live in Boston, and he was absolutely hilarious. Jerry and Patton are great as second bananas in this series. They could have easily been the lead characters in a spin-off show, which could have been called, "I'm Spooner, He's Olchin." Other important cast members include Doug's best friend Deacon Palmer (Victor Williams), Doug's cousin Danny Heffernan (Gary Valentine), dog (and Arthur) walker Holly Shumpert (Nicole Sullivan), and hulking neighbor Lou Ferrigno.My favorite episode is "Life Sentence," from the fourth season. In that episode, Arthur returns homes from the hospital, after having had an angioplasty. Doug and Carrie install a nanny-cam in the basement, in order to keep an eye on Arthur. Danny, Deacon and Spence are watching the television set in Doug's garage. While changing channels, they see Arthur on television. Enthralled, they end up watching Arthur all night long. Meanwhile, Doug and Carrie are finalizing their life insurance plan. Carrie decides that if she died, Arthur should still live with Doug. Doug thinks that's a crazy idea. Arguing over who will die first, Carrie smokes a cigarette, while Doug devours a spray can of whipped cream. Arthur makes an impassioned speech about how happy he was to get out of the hospital, and move back home with them. They all realize that, despite the constant arguing and craziness, they all really love each other. They conclude with a group hug, which nearly brings Danny, Deacon and Spence to tears. For me, that perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the show.On the plus side, a disc of bonus features includes a" Series Retrospective," "Thanks To The Fans," a "200th Episode Celebration," "The Writers Of The King Of Queens," and "Character Profiles." On the negative side, the fold-out box consists of two plastic spindles, with two rows of discs piled one on top of the other, without any protection. I'm happy to report that none of the discs I played were scratched or defective in any way. In addition, the audio and video qualities of the episodes were very good. For the bargain price it's selling for, I definitely recommend buying the complete series box set of "The King Of Queens."

Great comedy on all of the episodes.

I just love this show and I never get tired of the reruns. It would have been nice if they had made it in wide screen which is how they show it on TBS, but that's nothing, just a little suggestion. I love the chemistry between DOUG and CARRIE and are glad they kept the same characters throughout the show!(excluding Deacons kids) I bet that anyone checking this box set out has seen a few episodes before and let me guess, you like it, well this is what you need to get! I always hated not finding anything good on tv and The King Of Queens wasn't on either and wanted to see an episode, but after I found this little set, I can now watch it anytime which is the beauty of tv on dvd, you can watch it whenever. I also have a portable dvd player and when I'm not driving, that's my go-to selection. The great thing about this show is that it's so modest, so true to life, which is the reason why I, like so many others love it so much. It's funny to think that this kind of guy and this beautiful woman could have a chance, especially when they have their disagreements, but when they make up and have their loving moments, you know their meant for each other. Oh, don't even get me started on Carrie's father, Arthur. I don't think Iv'e ever seen that quite of a unique and hilarious relationship/situation between a young couple and the wife's crazy father living together. CLASSIC! I also don't think Iv'e ever seen such great chemistry between actors in a sitcom like these three together, and in every episode which is the mark of brilliancy. These guys deserve so much credit for bringing their A-game every single episode. BRILLIANT!! I just wish that it never got cancelled, this show could've gone on for 20 years!!! I would've loved the aspect of Doug and Carrie having a kid for the last few seasons, imagine Arthur as a grandpa, HA!!! Now onto the box set. It's made very nicely and is also very cleverly made, top of the line. The set is an IPS truck with Doug, Carrie and Arthur pictured in the "cockpit". The DVDS are located in the back of the truck, and you lift the door like a real delivery truck to pull them out. There are nine cases of dvds for the shows nine seasons with 3 dvds per case and the cases are made very nicely unlike some other complete series sets. Under the hood are nine "index card sized" cards for the nine seasons describing every episode!A GREAT VALUE AND A GREAT SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I watched a few episodes on tv and loved it

The quality is amazing! I can’t believe I finally got my hands on King Of Queens and especially on Bluray! I wanted this for 3 years! This along with Friends are the best thing to keep you company!

I picked up this German release because it seems unlikely that an HD version will ever come out in North America. This is meant for use in REGION B Blu-ray players. The discs work in both my Sony and Panasonic REGION A players, with the exception of the first season which took some messing around with the buttons on the remote to get it working. You may find this release works on your player as well.Since this was released for Germany, it should be noted that everything is in German. You will have to feel your way through the menus and episode titles. The audio default is German, but thankfully they also provided English audio with the original voices we all know and love. Picture quality is excellent with the 16:9 widescreen format, although it does look a bit grainy on large displays. It looks as though they went back to the original 33mm film and cropped for 16:9, meaning you lose some picture on the top and bottom from the original broadcast, but gain picture on the sides that was never before released. Most discs hold 11 or 12 episodes (well over 4 hours). If you choose PLAY ALL, you can binge watch for hours without touching the remote or changing discs. Unlike other box sets, this one is very compact and organized, making it easy to find the season you're looking for. The Blu-ray double-disc cases are premium and the sturdy storage box with images of the cast show attention to detail. It should also be noted that these are the FULL and UNCUT episodes.The downside is the bonus features. I've tried getting around it but they don't seem to work on REGION A players. The audio for the bonus features is German and the screen is black with no picture. There's no little extras like a book, episode guides or photo cards of the characters which would have been a nice touch. Also, there are no blooper reels, which isn't a knock on this set since they have never been released.The show itself is really funny and even more enjoyable in HD. Kevin James, Leah Remini and Jerry Stiller are lightning in a bottle. Every episode is a home run! The show ages really well and it gets funnier with repeat viewings. Only a handful of old sitcoms have been fortunate enough to receive the Blu-ray upgrade. Thank you to the dedicated KOQ fans of Germany for making this incredible box set possible. This is highly recommended and worth every penny!

Watch it every dayThank you.
