The Analysis of Everybody Loves Raymond

Everybody Loves Raymond was first televised on September 13th, 1996. The show revolves around the central character, Ray Barone. He’s a successful sportswriter living in New York with his wife Debra, their daughter Ally who is eight years old, and their four year old twins, Geoffrey and Michael. The show brings a lot of laughter due to the fact of Ray’s intrusive parents, Frank and Marie. They live directly across the street from Ray and Debra. Ray’s brother, Robert, is a police officer and divorcee who constantly lives in the shadows of Ray’s successful career and life. And so the show begins.

Ray Barone, played by Ray Ramano, is far from the ideal husband and father figure. He is a sports columnist in his mid-thirties, and works very hard at achieving some semblance of tranquility in his home. He has to side with either his wife or his mother when it comes to perpetuate arguments or debates, which he usually gives in to his mother. This is where the source of all the fun for the episodes comes from. His best moments come when the viewers get to see his expression when he is caught red-handed.

Debra Barone is acted out by Patricia Heaton. She is Ray’s wife, and an aggressi

Frank is acted out by Peter Boyle. He is the complete and utter terror of the family. His favorite saying is, “Holy Crap.” He never has anything good to say to anyone and he will consistently eat.

Some of the social problems the family has come across has to do with Debra’s parents’. They are very elite, stuck-up, arrogant, and they brag all the time especially about the trips they take. Another problem is between Ray and Debra. Their sex life doesn’t seem to be there when Ray wants it to be which is due to the fact Debra is the tired mother of three children and she ends up wanting to read a book and go to bed almost every night. Debra and Marie do not get along too well either. Since Marie comes from a huge Italian background, she loves to cook. And when Debra attempts to cook, she always gets criticized from anyone in the family. Even though they are always making fun of Debra, she is well educated with a college degree. Ray went to college and became a highly successful sportswriter for Newsday. Robert went to the Police Academy to become a cop. Which he presently is today. He did quit the job because of an unfortunate incident with a bull, but he overcame his accident and went back to being a cop. And for Marie and Frank, throughout episodes, they do not say much about their education, although I believe Frank was in the armed services.

Ray and Debra Barone are a happily married couple. They have an eight year old daughter, and four year old twin sons. Even though Debra is perpetually criticized by Marie, Ray’s mother, their marriage still stand strong. Robert used to be married to Joanne, until she controlled most of his life, so they got a divorce. And most recently he just got married to Amy. Frank and Marie have been married for an excessive amount of time. Even though Frank doesn’t show a lot of emotion and love towards Marie, there are times you can tell they are married and the parents of Ray, especially when they always take Ray’s side over Debra’s, hence the name Everybody Loves Raymond.

The other addition added to the Barone family, this year, is Robert’s new wife, Amy. The Barone Family is a middle-class white American family. They live the normal American life. They don’t drive in fancy cars, they don’t go out to dinner too often. Their house isn’t extravagant. Ray is a sportswriter, and Debra is a house w
