Why Kevin James doubted pal Ray Romano's ‘Everybody Loves Raymond' would work

Everybody loved Raymond — Kevin James, not so much. The comedian and actor admitted he initially had doubts about his friend Ray Romano's sitcom during the July 28 episode of 'Sibling Revelry with Kate Hudson and Oliver Hudson.' 'The fact that he got a show… I couldn't believe it because he's such a low-energy guy,' James, 60, said. 'Sitcom guys were, to me, like the big, wacky [characters]. I'm like this — this is death. It's not going to happen.' Advertisement 7 Kevin James and Ray Romano at the 'Everybody Loves Raymond' 100th episode party. FilmMagic, Inc Turns out, the 'Grown Ups' actor underestimated his buddy. 'Everybody Loves Raymond,' which premiered on September 14, 1996, on CBS, ran for nine seasons until 2005. Advertisement The sitcom starred Romano as the title character, Ray Barone, alongside Patricia Heaton as Deborah Barone, Brad Garrett as Robert Barone and the late Peter Boyle and the late Doris Robert as Ray's parents, Frank and Marie. 7 Ray Romano as Ray Barone in 'Everybody Loves Raymond.' ©CBS/Courtesy Everett Collection / Everett Collection 7 Patrica Heaton as Debra Barone and the late Doris Roberts as Marie Barone in 'Everybody Loves Raymond.' ©CBS/Courtesy Everett Collection The series earned 15 Emmys out of 69 nominations, including Outstanding Comedy Series in 2003 and 2005. Advertisement Just last month, the show was honored with a special exhibit at the Paley Museum in New York City in celebration of its 30th anniversary next year. It wasn't until James' own sitcom, 'The King of Queens,' premiered on the same network two years later that he fully grasped the scale of 'Everybody Loves Raymond's' success. 7 'The King of Queens' premiered on CBS two years after 'Everybody Loves Raymond,' in 1998. ©CBS/Courtesy Everett Collection 7 Kevin James as Doug Heffernan and Leah Remini as his wife Carrie in 'The King of Queens.' ©CBS/Courtesy Everett Collection Advertisement 'The first few years of going with Ray — even when our shows came out, we'd go to the same CBS functions and things like that,' James recalled. 'Red carpet things were so rough because they knew him, but my show had just come out… so they're taking a thousand pictures of Ray.' He remembered 'kind of standing there and nothing's clicking.' When he tried to step closer to Romano, the photographers asked for Romano alone. 'It was tough,' James added. Still, 'The King of Queens' went on to enjoy its own success, running for nine seasons until 2007. The series starred James as Doug Heffernan, Leah Remini as his wife Carrie and the late Jerry Stiller as Arthur Spooner. James' performance even earned him an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series in 2006. 7 Ray Romano and Kevin James know each other from their stand-up days.

CBS via Getty Images The 'Zookeeper' star, who knew Romano from their stand-up days, said he 'learned everything from Ray on how to do a sitcom' — especially how to tone down a scene when the moment called for it. 'He was so good on his sitcom, and the way he threw things away — I was like, 'Wow, I have to watch him and learn from him, because I'm going to be too big on camera,' James shared. 'So even in 'The King of Queens,' when I see episodes now, I'm like, 'Gee, throw it away, kid.' I'm like, 'Gee whiz. I wish I could go back and redo it.'' Advertisement Romano and James also found success in film, with Romano lending his voice to Manny in the 'Ice Age' franchise, and James starring in hits like 'Paul Blart: Mall Cop' and 'Here Comes the Boom.' The two appeared together on screen when Romano guest-starred on James' sitcom 'Kevin Can Wait' in 2016.

Peter Phillips, grandson of late Queen Elizabeth II, is engaged

Peter Phillips, the son of Britain's Princess Anne and eldest grandchild of the late Queen Elizabeth II, announced his engagement to nurse Harriet Sperling on Friday. 'Mr Peter Phillips, the son of HRH The Princess Royal and Captain Mark Phillips and Ms Harriet Sperling, daughter of the late Mr Rupert Sanders and Mrs Mary Sanders of Gloucestershire, have today confirmed their official engagement,' the couple's spokesperson told CNN in a statement. 'Both families were informed jointly of the announcement and were delighted with the wonderful news of their engagement. Their Majesties The King and Queen, The Prince and Princess of Wales have been informed of the announcement. 'No date has officially been set for the wedding,' the statement added. The couple first announced their engagement with a photo shoot in UK celebrity magazine Hello!, in which they were pictured in a field, with Sperling's ring prominent. They have been a couple since at least May 2024, when they were pictured together at the Badminton Horse Trials alongside Phillips' daughters and Queen Camilla. Sperling is a pediatric nurse for Britain's National Health Service and a freelance writer, according to an online biography attached to an article she wrote for Christian magazine Woman Alive last year. Phillips, 47, was previously married to Canadian-born Autumn Kelly with whom he shares two daughters – Savannah, 14, and Isla, 13. They announced their 'amicable' divorce and decision to share custody of their children in 2020.
