just watched the whole hour and a half special. and yes, ill miss it also. a lot of people knock it without giving it a fair chance. it was a very funny sitcom and had good continous jokes/phrases that never got old. oh well, guess i have years and years of syndicated episodes to fall back on.

The last one was quality at least... I think it was the first time I heard Ray's dad actually say anything serious, dating all the way back to Young Frankenstein.

One of the few sitcoms that I didn't get bored with - every episode made me laugh.

Very funny show - I'll miss it. The ep where they took the plastic cover off Marie's couch ranks up there as one of the funniest sitcom eps I've ever seen.

I do not, never have, and never will love Raymond. I've tried to watch the show, but the raw stupidity of it just kept getting in the way.

It was a great show. I could do without the incessant whininess of Ray's voice half the time though. Up there with the better sit-coms all in all. Pretty long run too huh?

or at least no one should.
Come on - this is OT, not P&N. People are allowed to have dissenting opinions here without being called fascists or commies. Join the fun - don't be an opinion Nazi. :p

I watch it on reruns on the WB and TBS. Good show. Saw the finale tonight, it was OK, but nothing special.

both brothers' voices were the strangest ones i've ever heard in my lifetime.

i've been watching the last few years, debra sure looks better now than the early years. i thought the finale was kind of weak though. i will miss the show.

Better then Friends by far but still not a fraction of what Seinfeld was as far as sitcomedies go. I would kill for some form of lost episode of Seinfeld right now.. thats one show I'll always miss seeing new. ELR and Malcolm in the Middle are about even to me.
