The King Of Queens - The Complete Series [DVD]

Love LOVE king of queens, I was paying to watch and decided to just buy the box set that was a great price, love it n WORTH IT 🍿

Worth the price; the show is hilarious!

Some of the reviews I saw didn’t have the discs in sleeves so I was a bit nervous ordering, but it’s packaged perfectly in two large cases with every disc having its own individual disc tray.

We treat ourselves to guaranteed pleasure and laughter with each hilarious episode! The cast is great and the writers are incredibly talented! Doug and Carrie (Kevin James and Leah Remini) are perfect in this hysterical series! I absolutely recommend for anyone who loves to laugh! :)

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."

Love this show, season 1 has below average quality but later seasons look much crisp. -1 point for minor damage to the case and some broken plastic but nothing substantial. I am not a fan of these big fat cases with 10 or so discs in them as the cheap plastic is bound to break making some discs come lose but the value proposition is good. Overall, a great set to have in your collection so you can watch it anytime you want as compared to figuring out where it is currently streaming (if at all) or if you are subbed to that service or not.

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!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Item arrived as described & on time. Perfect transaction! Very pleased.

Tuve que devolverla porque no trae subtitulos en español o no viene en idioma español, es una serie muy divertida

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 watched a few episodes on tv and loved it

It was a great series! What better gift to give a fan of the show! I loved and recommend !

Bin begeistert von der Box. Hatte schon seit Jahren die DVD-Box, die auch kultig war (Holzpalette ;-) !!!), aber diese Box ist durch das remasterte Bildmaterial der Hammer, ebenso der DTS HD Ton. Ich bin ein absoluter Fan von KOQ und kann es nicht oft genug ansehen. Hätte nicht gedacht, dass der Unterschied so enorm ist. Bei meiner Edition sind auch keinerlei Abspielprobleme mit den ersten beiden Blurays oder irgendwelche Ghostings, null. Ich vermute mal das es an der Aktualität des Abspielgerätes und dessen Software liegt. Mein alter Sony-Player aus 2009 hatte auch mit mancher Bluray so seine Probleme, ganz zu schweigen von Ladezeiten. Was ich vermisse ist ein Beilageheft. Die Titel der Folgen stehen nur auf den Scheiben, nicht mal auf den Hüllen - da kann ich schlecht schauen, was ich sehen will, wenn die Disk im Player steckt. Ebenso, wenn man mal davon ausgeht, dass das wirklich Fans der Serie sind, die so was kaufen, da kann man wirklich etwas mehr in der Präsentation erwarten. Vielleicht wäre ein Heft angebracht gewesen, bei dem zu jeder Folge wenigstens nur ein Satz steht, dass man immer gleich weiß, welche Folge das ist, denn manche Titel sind sehr kryptisch. Aber alles im allen bin ich sehr zufrieden mit der Ausgabe, die Scheiben hüte ich wie meinen Augapfel. Das wird mal Fernsehgeschichte! (Ist das jetzt gut oder schlecht? Egal, da Kult!)
