I was surprised at how much I don't find Kevin James funny outside of the show. I think I caught a special of his on Comedy Central and noticed some of the jokes were lifted from the show. But I didn't find him funny in that context.

The show had a lot going for it!!! Loved Deacon, Jerry Still as Arthur, Leah Remini, Patton Oswalt, the "dumb" friend Rich, etc. It was great
