Everybody Loves Raymond and Seinfeld

Regular followers of Unmuzzled Thoughts have heard me blabbing that one day I’m going to publish an essay explaining why those who loved the sitcom Seinfeld should theoretically also love the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond. Well, that day has come. I finally gathered my thoughts, supported them with evidence (sifting through nine years of episodes ain’t for the faint of heart!), and published them on FlowTV under the title

“So Why Did Everybody Love Raymond?“

While I’m grateful to anyone who reads and/or comments on the piece, I’ll be especially glad if my friends over at Cultural Learnings and Judgmental Observer, both of whom have engaged with me in spirited debates over the shows — e.g., Raymond is “a colossal pile of sh*t”; it’s “uninteresting…and not particularly funny” — now understand where I’m coming from. If not, we’re just going to have to change the subject. =)
