“You hated that job”
“No I hated having a job there’s a difference”
Preach brother preach
Amen.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
You are correct sir lol
And not a lie can be found there
Wouldn’t hating a job and hated having a job still kind of be the same thing though just curious
It's rare to see a male character in a tv show end a relationship for his valid reasons.
When hs job was on strike he found something to do, when she lost her job she didn't do anything. It's crazy how she did whatever and when he wanted to go vegas he was afraid too ask.
lol, what? Doug was a narcissist and he did the exact same thing (keep an apartment) but even worse, tried to keep it a secret from Carrie. He's a hypocrite.
@@djb6496 Carrie was the narcissist. You don't have to accept that, your wife will show you in real life. And you won't (apparently) see it coming.
That was before EKOW YGOLOEDI
rare to also see a male character that had a back bone 'married with children' showed a dumb man and they always took advantage just sat back.
Never make someone a priority when they only make you an option
That even includes your adult children. 😉

Facts all day!!
@@deepsleep7822reported
I say it all the time❤
People forget… things got REALLY deep and passive aggressive between these two the last couple of seasons. I appreciated it, it showed how a married couple really grows resentment towards one another
The question is if we really want this kind of realism in a sitcom. I don't watch a comedy show to feel bad.
@razmatazz9310 well not everything ends happily
@@razmatazz9310I want that in sitcoms. Makes them more legit and respectable. Serious scenes are great.
@@youarejustwaytocool Agreed. Fresh Prince had some really great serious scenes and they definitely did not hurt the rest of the show.
Not every married couple is like that.
9 seasons and the producers finally wrote an episode where Doug's character stood up for himself, showed some intellect, and finished like a man.
He finished like a person who finally demanded the love and respect that he deserved.
He kept an apartment secret from her. He's a hypocrite.
If only he could lose the weight like a real man
When she walks away, I bet she's thinking "Good thing I kept the apartment!"
He still proved his point. She never gave no effort in the relationship she did not even try to save the marriage she just walked away after all those years
Doesn't matter what she thought...she was looking for the bigger better deal. Dragging along Doug until she could leave him again. Hated Carrie at the end
Had she gotten rid of it this scene would never have happened.
This
@Stronghand1984 why do you say that?
Carrie - I married you what do you call that?
Doug- hitting the jackpot
LMFAOOOOOO
He was wrong, he was lucky to get someone half as good looking as Carrie in the first place.
@@jackdull5699 not everything about looks dipshit😭😭
@@jackdull5699 Okaaay so according to you when someone is “uglier” than you…you’re allowed to lie to them??? Yeah NO…
Doug was right... if she could have done better she would have. Some women plan their lives a certain way and if they know xyz ain't happening there's always plan B. Doug was her plan B while still working on her A game. She even had the dope take care of Her father even tho he owned property, a house he kept a secret from them. She used him like a mule, and it showed in the series. She was always up Itty, and angry with Doug for being such a Blue Collar thinker...
@@israelzayas361 he’s still fat af, perpetuating that men can be porkers & cows but still have a good wife. I love their comedic chemistry, but King of Queens is the epitome of fat-guy-with-hot-wife trope that makes men think their entitled to hot wives while being hogs themselves 💅
He was right, she didn't love him enough to take a chance, then just walks away without saying anything or skipping a beat. Spoke volumes
So true. Sad but true.
Definitely! She basically acted like she was his mother she ran over him and made him change everything about him she didn’t like. She changed nothing. She was to bitchy
@@pcoswellnessgroup Doug did the same thing to her but just hid it lol think of all the crazy schemes. Owning an apartment behind HER back. Basically forcing her to make a best friend then ending it for her. Doing disgusting things to her work friends so she wouldn’t have any friends. Telling her she had a big forehead… making HER lose weight. Etc. she just wanted him to lose weight so he could ya know… be healthy. So
@@aspasiakrouskas9607 yeah I can agree on that. They both did some absurd things. Just looked like they didn’t even like each other but on Carrie tho. He took her verbal abuse and twisting his nipples and she took his behavior as well. She was always basing their relationship on how others are going.
She couldn't say anything. She failed the leap of faith for him and knew it.
That feeling she has a backup plan really does hurt. You really have to commit to a marriage for it to work, through good and bad times.
Reasons why I hated her character even more.
I didn't like either one of them, but Doug was always lying to get so he could get what he wanted more than Carrie.
@@rafaelsale6364
Doug had his faults but he was.100% committed. Dealt with her father, and quit his job.
@@rafaelsale6364 And because he was scared of her physical and emotionally abusive ways, but we don't talk about that.
She walked away, and didn’t even try. She stepped out of that relationship a long time ago.
Ahhh life was simple back then. Watching 2 or 3 of these episodes after school was soo joyful
You right
You knew what was on and when it would be on and you’d plan your day according to when the show was on .. simple pleasures .. things had value
Omg right or late at night
This and Bernie Mack
Right!?
Man, the feeling of hurt and sadness that Doug is portraying just made me tear up. He loved her and never wanted it to end, but he knew she wouldn't change. When he said they were done he stood there waiting for a response from her wishing maybe it wouldn't end, but she walked away which proved his point, and you can see it shattered him to pieces 💔
You're very right. I was thinking the same thing. She didn't even try at the end to convince him that her love was true. She just accepted, cause she wanted that anyways. That's when a ma'am knows. Waiting for a response...but nothing.
Not ma'am....I meant man. 🤪
They don't ever change and they always walk away..why because they run off to text the next in line. "Women"
@Tom Reedy Even if it means breaking up the family. Been 2 years.
Saying "I guess I am" isn't something that deserves a response otherwise he just baited her into chasing him. She's right not to respond to manipulation.
The show got so deep at the end. I can’t watch it. This show is ridiculously well written. So many jokes, excellent plots and wonderful actors. Love this show.
Better days are gone i miss those days..
It is well written, but who ever wrote it had a deranged wife or was one. Lol
@@tomjohnson3010 probably lol. Honestly, it is probably the most honest depiction of marriage. just love this show so much.
I loved Jerry Stiller!!!
loved Doug ❤❤
“No! I said I hated having a job! Big difference!”.. 😂
Saying they were over was just him trying to see if she’d finally take that leap of faith.. and she said nothing and walked away.
Been there and it hurts , when you just wanted someone to care about you just as much so you didn’t feel alone in the world
Well in the show she lied to him about an apartment she got in the city because he didn’t want to sell the house. He caught her and that’s what ended it. She broke his trust on a monumental level and he was done. He wasn’t trying to get her to do anything else at that point.
The very fact that she walked away showed that she wasn’t interested in trying. Smh. So in the moment she proved his point.
@@FRAMEDSKATEKREW69 then you move on and find someone else. There are nearly 8 billion people in the world and you're awash with loneliness because one of them didn't feel the same way? I get being hurt, but that's not the same as loneliness or just being alone.
I think people place too much emphasis on romantic relationships in general. There's just too much effort and energy that goes into it. I found an amazing woman, and I didn't have to go looking for her. We stumbled into each other. Took a while, but it happened. True love is something you realize and stumble upon, not something you do that actively drives you to feel things like loneliness. It'll happen, but we have to be much more patient for it.
Also, it's surprisingly not difficult to know when someone feels the same way about you. Don't ever go for anyone that cares less ....OR.... more for you, than you do them. The imbalances lead to inadequacies, and the inadequacies lead to resentment. Just stay true to you and try not to worry so much about it. There is no such thing as "The One"!
We call that cu dolce here in Brasil. Sweet asshole. A game girls mostly play to get attention. Lol
"Hitting the jackpot" is the truth my king. Well played.
Through most of the episodes, it was one of those stories that made you wonder how it lasted as long as it did... she never ever seemed to be happy with anything he did.
She was a real debbie downer the whole show.
She wasn't happy. Worse she thought she had a right to be happy. But all those flash backs before they even met show she was incapable. Of course she blamed everyone else.
@@maq3009 cos Doug was a lazy prick
@@NinjaaaHD even though he was a deliver driver fu
Super unrealistic match. She loved fashion and makeup and she couldn’t even take him to work events. Lol she never wanted to be domesticated and hated most of his life choices
Wow, Kevin James really delivered in this scene! Doug had some scenes when things got serious throughout the series but nothing like this... this is not "sitcom upset", it is dark.
Ikr?
yes raw emotion this show is majorly underrated
Go watch the movie Becky (if you like gory movies) he’s so good in it and he’s the villain
KOQ is so much more than a sitcom.
KOQ IS Life! 🙌
@@citizen1163 I agree 100 percent
One of the few times that Carrie was speechless and lost an argument. Thanks for the video.
i feel they were both in the wrong doug was hypocrite about carrie keeping apartment even though he had one himself doug gave it up carrie didn't it was also wrong when doug and carrie got back together in Church in God house the deal was carrie give up apartment doug get a new job doug did his part even though he was happy at his job and carrie didn't kept her deal she was very wrong have doug quit his job for her when she didn't do same
Weird when sitcoms get intense like that. I love it. It shows the actors true acting chops.
So being funny is easy? lol
Most actors that do comedy are good dramatic actors because in comedy they have to reach beyond their selves to create a comedy character. Look at Brian Cranston.
If you want to see an intense ending to comedy .Watch the final episode of "Blackadder Goes Forth " a British comedy set in ww1 during 1917 in France. It's a slow build up to an investable conclusion. It went on as one of the most watched episode in British T.V. comedy history.
@@calm1047 Right? He might be the greatest television actor of all time. He was hilarious in Malcolm in the Middle, The King of Queens and How I Met Your Mother. Plus he was genius in shows like Breaking Bad, Sneaky Pete and Your Honor.
@@calm1047 Brian Cranston is not a good example for me, lol.
One thing I never understood about Carrie is that she always acted like she and Doug had a terrible life. She had a two story house, a good job and a husband who loved her. Granted Doug did a lot of stupid things but I never for once doubted that he loved her and wanted her to be happy. But Carrie nother was ever enough, she complains about never having any money yet spends a fortune on clothes, when she saw others happy, and wanted everyone else to be miserable. She felt like she was OWED the luxurious life, the fancy clothes, the apartment in Manhattan. So ungrateful for what she had I would kill for a house like that! And look how fast she was willing to throw it away.
Amen! Well said. There are a lot of Carries out there. Blessings.
Having Carrie's life would be a dream come true! Doug was a wonderful husband! Some people search for a relationship like that their whole lives and never get it! He was trusting, loving, loyal, funny, honest, he didn't have all sorts of baggage, he never hurt her... What was there to complain about??! I always thought Doug deserved better than Carrie.
@@SundayMourningLove I don’t know, just because you guys would like it, doesn’t mean she had to. We’re all different and what makes some people happy can make other people miserable and vice versa. There’s no point shaming her, if she wasn’t happy, it would have only gotten worse for both of them down the line if they didn’t do this.
They just grew apart. It happens. No one really at fault.
And its dumb. Manhattan isnt even that great and who would intentionally give up their HOUSE for a lame apartment where a landlord controls your stuff?
It feels like death having your heart broke by the person you love the most...
When I went through my divorce (I didn’t want it), the county I live in requires each person to go to classes. Almost always not together. One of the speakers made the comment you made and added, but they’re still alive and that makes it worse. With a real death, it’s final, you’ll never see that person again on this plane of existence.
The sad part is that Carrie gave up waaay before Doug did. If she truly cared about him, she would've tried to change his mind and work it out. All throughout their marriage, Carrie always had a comeback for anything Doug said or did. This time she didn't.
Umm. It's a show. A scripted show.
@@jeremygjonaj1487 Yes and the script writers knew what they were doing. What’s your point?
@@jockturner1547 right lmao i feel bad for those who don’t get at least a little emotionally invested in shows
It was good acting.
@@williams33able That's why acting is "Art Imitating Life".
See how she just walked away instead of just trying to work things out…
This actually helped me
Thank you I needed this
When she just turned and walked away. Confirmed her interest in staying married.
@@mattwoolley tell me about it.
If they want to go...let them go. I know it hurts then, but long term you'll be better from it. Trust me.
Dude I feel you bro
She _does_ work things out, though, both of them do. Carrie doesn't walk away because she doesn't care or because she doesn't want to still be together with Doug.
She walks away because she knows that she's in the wrong and that Doug clearly didn't want to see her in that moment. He had been outside by the dumpsters for nearly the entire episode purposely to be away from Carrie.
Good to see him actually stand up to her. This show was proof that it can happen to men too. She was always so demeaning and verbally abusive to him.
Doug wasn’t a great husband either. They did well to split up.
That’s the lesson you took from this show? Were you blindfolded the entire time?
I never care for Carrie, she's so obnoxious and always yeah verbally abusive to him
It was a comedy show lmao
Omg i always thought she was soo rude to him! I thought i was imaginaning because i didnt watch all episodes
Boyyyy, we can all learn from Doug. We deserve to be with someone who respects us and make sacrifices as much as we do for them. *Im saying this outside of the context of the entire show and what they been through. Meanwhile, I’m speaking only for this scene alone.*
True true
Right on !
Sooooooooooooooooo TRUE !
But they’re married, so this moment means nothing
In real life she was probably having a affair for years at that apartment 👀
I never knew they broke up! This is crazy, and I'm gonna watch the whole series now. It was always re-runs and never on air.
Me too because this is mind boggling
What season was this?
@@lawrencebraun7616 Great stuff! I'll look it up. Thanx
Mind blown
I’m watching it all on Peacock right now
One of the greatest endings ever! Doug didn't need Carrie. In reality, she needed him, and she never appreciated that he was willing to make a sacrifice for her.
This was the ending to the whole show?!? Wow that's somethin'
@@Artanis667 Actually it's not. But a lot of fans think it's how the show should have ended, because the later half of the season finale is just so stupid and let's Carrie off easy.
No woman ever cares about the sacrifices a man has to make
@@Artanis667 Still they wanted the Baby but for each for themselfes! On the way to get the baby (China) they met each other in the plane and they tried to make clear! And hours later, Doug falls to sleep and Carrie had a bit of time to think about the Situation... she woke up Doug to ask what they gonna do now, when they leave the plane! ... After 1 or 2 jokes, Carrie said some emotional things and at the end something like "I wanna have the baby together with YOU and i wanna forget everything what happend the last weeks!" .... Doug said "I love you Carrie!" and she said the same to him of course .... then they brought the baby home to Queens and after some minutes with Doug, Carrie and the Baby, Arthur came back from his short marriage with Veronica (Spence' mother) ... He said "It shouldnt be!" everyone laughed (except Doug and Carrie xD) and he moved in again :) that was the last scene :D
Basically, nothing changed (because Arthur is back again) but they have a baby now :)
@patricia119 @jamesrowles9249 Bullshi*.
If she loved him she would have pleaded with him and committed to immediately getting rid of the apartment, but instead she turned and walked away, which in a way proved him right
he already said it was too late, it wouldn't have mattered.
Gus, she can be insufferable beyond words.
@@MrJeffer0326 Even if someone says it's too late. You give up right away without even attempting to fight for what you want, what you love, What you feel you can't live without. THAT is when it's Really too late.
@@valuecalc she was a nasty piece of work. She made Doug feel inadequate all the time and never took responsibility for her own emotional health. She was literally always blaming someone else which is almost the complete opposite of most women. Very immature behaviour. You know I'm trying to remember if she had any hobbies outside boozing with her work mates. I can't think of anything
@@zapkvr, yes. Her endless bitching and criticism were enough to put most any man in a straightjacket. He needed to look for another woman.
I loved how the show ended. It goes on as if there's another episode coming up next and then it goes to the pilot again for another full circle of hilariousness. Same thing with how George Lopez ended up. You just feel like it'll never end.
Isn’t the last episode for the George Lopez Show when George convinces the new owner of the plant to keep the plant in the US.
This isn't how it ends though?
@@treyoftriphorya Yup, with George running it
Wow, she didn't even try and fight for the relationship. He made the right call.
women will do anything for a baby, but not for their husbands.
She didn’t ever fight for them to stay together. That’s how he knows he was right about her. I always thought she was brains of the relationship. Ooooops.
One of the keys to any HEALTHY relationship is both knowing the other could walk away at ANY moment but also being comforted in the fact that they won't...
Barring some major discretion of course 😉😉🙏🏾🙏🏾
His feelings are extremely valid here, but getting married is in fact a leap of faith. 😅
I remember when this episode aired an their break up had finally had happened. When the show first started Carrie was very sweet but as time went on she got more mean and abusive and never really accepted Doug for who he was. The way I see it is Carries mother passing away young forced Carrie to be an adult much sooner than she needed to be and Doug was always sheltered by his parents and had an easy life therefore their life experiences just didn’t click. I believe most of Carrie’s anger also came from Arthur’s shortcomings as a father to her growing up and I believe the reason she wanted such a lavish lifestyle was to make her forget her youth
But Carrie being mean was so hot though! Whoa, I've said too much....
@@LembeckIsStaying ummmm
Carries can be mean but re-watching the show now i realize how awful Doug was! He constantly lied to her and did whatever he could to get out of doing things she wanted to do. He was incredibly sexist, childish and had no type of aspirations or goals. All of that would probably make me mean and resentful too lol.
@@megansarat Doug was hilarious but yeah I guess that’s sorta true lol but I Carrie didn’t really do much for herself either being just a secretary and she thought it was okay to spend half their income on expensive clothes for her job but whenever Doug made a purchase she would complain about wasting money and call him an idiot. Arthur was always wreaking some kind of havoc as well (love Arthur though) and I feel Carrie let it slide a lot which made Doug act out more as well. Just a good example of a couple who aren’t fit for each other at all
What do you mean her father's shortcoming?
Used to be one of my favorite shows to watch after school...good memories
Used to be one of my favorite shows, after work, one day a week. Good memories for me too. I'm guessing your a bit younger than me, but we still agree!

I got Hulu, Netflix, Disney , CZcams, Pluto tv & there is still nothing to watch 🤦♂️. Tv was way better back then
Same.
“I married you what do you call that” the fact that she can say that WITHOUT the slightest clue how demeaning and hateful that sounds…
No necessarily marrying anyone and starting a future with them is a risk. Remember 85% of marriage end in divorce.
"hitting the jackpot" was an exquisite response, though
@@pickyourfaceup384is it 85% now? Wow
That is what marriage is. You take a leap of faith.
@@pickyourfaceup38456 percent
He carried the relationship really loving her, and she just loved to fight. She loved always thinking she was top dog, thinking she was always right. But she walked away KNOWING he was actually REALLY right about her. She hated being wrong, she hated more so that he was right. She couldn't fight back. She couldn't win this one. He silenced her once and for all. He delivered alot of golden nuggets of truth.
He slayed that mean old serpent once and for all
Ya... If she really loved him, he would be a satisfied and content man and there would be no complaints. (define: content: in a state of peaceful happiness)
Some Women (and Men) have relationships knowing if a bigger better deal (BBD) was available they would leave... this show shows this perfectly in the end. He married her, provided for her, took in her father and dealt with her condescending attitude. They couldn't even have children (birth control or another reason?) without some sort of drama coming out of it... so adoption was on the table for a while, but never followed through. This ending 💔 really showed her true intentions; which was to go along for the ride until someone or something better came along (that's plan B). Horrible person, horrible and dark situation to be in.
My God this sounds like my long relationship I had
I had a girlfriend similar to her. Always felt like I was competing with her instead of having a relationship. I moved on.
He had the ambition and drive to succeed of a sloth. She was always talking about living a Manhattan lifestyle but didn’t have the education to do that.
They were very different people.
Correct. WTF were they doing together? It wasn't the 1950s. They both had other more sensible options. They agreed about practically nothing. It wasn't as if they even complemented each other.
They aren’t real
@@jault8480 right? It's like arguing if Lucas McCain was a good father to Johnny Crawford.

Don’t get married then.
Always thought this was a weird plot choice, since there was literally an episode where Doug had his own secret apartment.
But in the end he always settled for her needs, than his. I think that’s why this episode seemed more grounded. (Serious)
yeah he lived above a chinese restaurant lol
@@DannyCosmos yes, secret apartment and secret job
Yeah but his apartment was like a guys hang spot and he didn’t not get rid of it. This is different. Even in this argument he says he sacrifices a lot for her and she had been kind of selfish. Years later when trying to start new and fresh for the future and she didn’t hold up her end.
They were both pretty selfish people.

I love that its Deacon and Kelly that helped Doug and Carey reunite, well rounded.
I love it when Kelly telling Carrie that Doug done some awful things to her and she forgave him all the time
I love this show but the good thing about the ending was their talk on the plane when they got back together. Because as he said, she was always pulling away from him. And I think it’s the driving force by her always yelling. It wasn’t so much that she didn’t love him, they were just different people.
I quit my Job and i loved that job"
"you hated that Job you Said so a thousand times"
"No i Said i hated Having a Job"
There's a difference!
He wanted a sign of faith. He was open to his emotions. What did she do? Turn her back on him.
This ending is the best possible ending for Doug. She was and will always be mean.
“C’mon Doug tell my father you want him to live with us?!”
“……………………….I can’t do that……”
That old man lived with them enough , he needed to go he wasn’t helping matters.
I stopped watching this show years ago when they were happy. I didn’t know they separated on show
They didn't. This was the very last episode. She found out her eggs had gone off so she wasn't having a baby then her entire pathetic world crashed in on her. Of course she blamed Doug. The bitch. In the last five minutes they adopted a baby from China and she magically fell pregnant. It was the most softcock final episode since Melrose place. Pathetic doesn't cover it
@@zapkvr angry much ?
The series ends one year later: Doug and Carrie are in their living room, busy with a toddler and a newborn baby. Arthur comes in and says something like "it didn't work out".
Seems like he broke up with Veronica and returns to his basement, ready to live there again.
Same here
@@b_side8669 bruh if the ending is really that lame then of course they'd be angry, people want good conclusions to their shows not just garbage
I was in a 10 year relationship like this where the other never took a leap of faith and constantly made me feel like I was wrong. It took my a long time to leave, and I don’t regret it.
Hurt does not fix itself. You either start hurting the other person in return or hurt yourself more by being silent, neither of which is fair to you nor your partner.
I did not know it ended like this. I thought it was all fun and games throughout the whole series
It didn't end like this. I believe this was a season ending. They actually ended renewing their vows.
@@aarontaylor4349 yeah at the very end Arthur (carries dad) gets married they adopt an asian baby and then they have a kid of their own and the scene ends with them taking care of the two kids and Arthur coming back b/c he got a divorced

then he becomes Pual blart!?.

@@goodnightmunchie tf lol who said anything about black women or really race in general either way take it from me doesn't matter what race/ethnicity she is they all can act like they're bipolar or pmsing
My wife did exactly the same thing, whenever it came time to work or fight for our marriage she would always say nothing or walk away, if you love something you fight for it no matter how pointless it seems, if you just give up at the first speed bump it can
Never really have meant anything.
Maybe your wife was fed up with „fighting“ and longing for a mature and calm conversation with you.
@@MiMi-rc1bv
Who said anything Fighting?
@@MiMi-rc1bv
And why would you assume we weren’t having mature and calm conversations 😂.
Are you one of those internet guys with a sad life so you project it onto others in some lame attempt at making yourself feel something?
I understand your wife’s attitude
@@MiMi-rc1bv Maybe you shouldn't be talking about maturity when you're here making assumptions about people you don't know and their circumstances.
The into to this show brings me back to midnight watching reruns with my grandma about 15 years ago 💔 rip g ma 💔
I’m sorry for your loss 😞
Doug and Carrie may have truly loved each other, but that's different than actually being "in love" with a person. They weren't truly compatible. They were never on the same page mentally, emotionally, or personally... they wanted different things out of life.
thats right, Carrie wanted a happy life with Doug and a solid future. Doug just wanted to stuff his face, worst character in TV history
It's a TV show.
I did not like the role that she played in this sitcom. I like her as a person but not in this role.
thats like evrey celeb on the planet.
yes, doug is a moron, carrie can have anyone she wants
So many times I’ve been in situations similar to this and so many times I look back with regret that I didn’t act like Doug did. Breaking up takes more strength than I ever had
Hey. You doing ok?
@@CloudyWolf713 typically I am. Today, not so much. But hopeful tomorrow will be better. Thank you for asking. That was very kind
Shut up
king of queens back to back episodes all seasons got me through what i thought was the end of a 12 year relationship. the laughs made me forget what i was going through this episode broke me mentally it brought it all back. thankfully me and the wife pulled through now married 18 years and have a son. thank you king of queens
Does she know you were having a hard time
@James Furey really?
@James Furey Was that fucking necessary?

@@jcurbin305 agreed 😂
Leah does such a good job here. When Doug says “I guess I am” saying that they are over. You can tell her heart drops and breaks at the moment. This is the most serious Doug has been and she felt that.
where did she break? i saw sadness on doug's face. i saw acceptance and already moved on in carrie's. she didnt even try to fight for him. and he was right, she only wanted him back for the baby, once she had the baby she was gonna divorce and go to her appartment in manhatten.
so exactly, where did she break?
She walked away without a thought. She didn't even look like it crossed her mind to try and fight for him.
He ment that in real life bc the show was over.
Good acting. I could relate to the emptiness when she walked away
One of the better sitcoms I've watched.
I just ended a long term relationship. The "she isn't getting any nicer is she?" comment hit home for me XD. I didn't stay fat though.
This is the most serious Doug.
And she still didn’t take the leap of faith and just walked away
when a man says it's over, it's over. there's nothing you can say or do. it's just over
I mean he said it’s over, what else is there?
Only time Doug truly stood up for himself with his abusive wife. Good man.
This is such a good scene ruined by the laugh track.
FACTS👍🏿
For real. Almost kills it
Wait.. THIS WASN'T FILMED IN FRONT OF A LIVE STUDIO AUDIENCE?!
Agree
@@nrXic most laugh tracks they use are from what was a live audience in the black and white days it's so weird
I love The King if Queens, but, I hate when shows force a child onto the characters just to add something to the plot. I especially hate it when the writers do it at the end of a series. And for some reason it's usually an adopted child.
Yea adult life is weird. Lol
I hear you. Some fans wanted Jonathan and Jennifer on Heart to Heart to have a baby but fortunately the writers did not do that.
I think it makes sense though, while the show ran it would have changed the dynamic and we would have anyhow seen the baby(doll) only from behind or someone saying it’s sleeping or something like that.
But once the show ended it was the necessary development for the couple! I loved the last episode! Married couples usually want kids so it’s not forcing anything on them, it’s the logically next step!
Well i consider it good that it happened at the end of the series so we didn't have to endure an annoying kid. But I agree, not every show needs a kid but it seems to be a necessity for some.
omg yes. they did that in Mad About You as well. shows how traditional they were back then and a lack of creativity tbh.
in the last scene Dough stopped simping !
Lets not forget the other crap Doug put up with on a daily basis, besides Carrie's crap. Like Arthur. My spouse's parents have lived with us for over 7 years when it was only supposed to be for less than a year and they are nightmares to live with. He lived with all of Carrie's crap and then also had to support her father and all the trouble he always caused and who's side did she always take? Arthur's. No one should have to live with their in-laws forever and support them. He didn't marry Arthur, he married Carrie. Helping family is one thing, but Arthur's problems were asking too much.
YUP
One of my favorite sitcoms! I still watch episodes to this day.
I’m currently on S3. Man, Jerry Stiller is the definition of comical timing.
I never knew he left her. Made my day seeing Doug leave her
I mean this whole show in general was 2 people who shouldn't be together but this scene was just downright brrrrr
I would watch this and everybody loves raymond after school still looking for a debra or carrie 🤣🤣🤣🤣
What's yer point? That you stink at looking? Maybe it's you, not her?
Same
Good god why?
Both shows were a staple in my
House growing up! (Still is 😂)
@@zapkvr you "stink" at trolling
You don’t know what you got/had until it’s gone.
She didn't even try to challenge it thats the biggest of red flags. If you believe something is worth fighting for you fight for it you dont walk away without saying anything.
You realize it's designed to elicit an emotional response. It's not meant to be authentic. It's meant to be exploitative. Are you sure you aren't a girl?
True for some people, but not everyone will "challenge" a partner who express wanting to end a relationship. That's because not everyone is so inmature to refuse to accept the fact that nothing you, say will change your SO's decision or make them want to stay with you. 🤷🏾♀️
She’s respecting his wishes and she was clearly hurt. If someone says they’re dumping you then they’re dumping you, you don’t get to try to reverse it
@@winter333 Many try
I miss this show, used to watch it literally all day. It was a tv show but it was based off real life emotions and situations
Is it because, she's doing a game show now ?
Good for him! That man deserves much better, she didn't respect him as a human let alone her old man. She rarely had a kind word to the man. Good man!
I loved this show, these two might have loved each other, but they weren't the most compatible, I could totally see them breaking up.
She doesn't even fight for it and just leaves. That tells you right there about their relationship.
IKR, I thought the same.
She’s tired
10/4 on that speaks volumes
Why she gotta fight for something so dumb. You break up because she didn't give up the apartment 2/10
He's lucky she married his dumb ass
KobraThaDon why choose her side? She was just as equally lucky to marry him.
It's criminal how Kevin james was always looked past by The Academy. He likes to do the real people's characters, which doesn't leave much room for range. However, when he is allowed to, I think he proves himself to be a great actor.
How she walked away without any words says all you need to know in any relationship.
Going back to the guy she keeps in that apartment she didn't get rid of.
most women are selfish and heartless this way. they prioritize security and quality of life. men prioritize loyalty and respect.
This part of the episode broke my heart. Every marriage has it problem and I remember watching this when I was a teenager in high school. I loved this show and I loved doug and carrie together for some reason. To see this part of the episode blow me away.💯😥
He was absolutely right though!!!! She never truly believed on him, or their marriage, and everything she did was a bandaid solution to their problems, and never anything that was actually going to make things better and he got tired of it!!! Her response to it was all he needed to prove his point.
Damn the fact that she didn't even say anything and just walked away was cold
That was my ex wife, that's when I knew to move on.
@@anthonymede9216 100% happened that way for me too.
Yeah. That's when their glad it's over
@@anthonymede9216 she probably did not care but you it a blessings
i think carrie was in shock.
Adopting a baby, especially from China, seemed very out of character. Doug and Carrie talked about having a baby in previous seasons but adoption was never considered or even mentioned. And then, boom, suddenly in the finale it says they're on the list of an adoption agency? Where did that come from lol
I guess we can infer that after carrie found out she couldn't have kids they made the decision off screen
This was the season finale?
@@WharfRat44 Yes, it's the show's finale which consists of two episodes and this is the first of the two. After that Carrie wants to fly to China alone to adopt the baby, Doug travels after her, they reconcile on the plane. In China Carrie finds out she is pregnant and so they end up having 2 babies. Arthur also returns.
It's called a script. It's fake. All of it. None of this sitcom was real. All made up. As in there is no more now it's fine.
@@iamyourgod530 Hmm…you know, I’m fairly certain everyone is very aware of this. In fact, having a discussion and exchanging opinions and theories about a shared interest (such as a TV show) is actually quite common here. You probably misunderstood this behavior. It’s okay. Whoosh happens…
And still at the end she still didn't try to make an effort she just walked away. She just proved his point. She never even tried to save the marriage after all those years she still walked away
I think the biggest reason she didn't try to get back was because this is Doug... he's always shown and told his love for her and if something happened that could make that man say it is over, then it really is and there's no way to change his mind. His very own character over all the time of their marriage was the reason she knew he meant it.
I like Leah Remini but Carrie was so awful, she would scream/yell/hit Doug over anything, but he finds out about this and (calmly) confronts her and she's just oh that, pfft☠
He wasn’t exactly a fantastic husband. He was obnoxious, immature, irresponsible and an underachiever. Any person would become frustrated being married to a person like that. He consistently lied to Carrie in every episode.
The 90’s and early 2000’s were the decades for uncomfortable sitcoms. Roseanne, Curb, Everybody Loves Raymond and Seinfeld were fantastic because the characters weren’t safely sanitized to avoid offending some viewers, like they are today.
C I yes....yes she did. He was fat, lazy with no ambition. That was the basis of the show. What are you confused about?
In the event of a break-up, Carrie is the one who would have options, so this doesn't quite ring true...
@@Pens4Life85 No.
Doug was a joke. Give her a break.
“Ah, Hitting the jackpot” Ha that’s exactly what I tell my wife
Lmao me too
Then she proceeds to this 🙄
As opposed to hitting your wife's sister
Why is everyone blaming Carrie? Doug lied to her basically every episode, not one person would put up with all the lying
‘Fat, mean, & naked…” damn so true! Lol
I guess after Arthur left the marriage is falling a part
I think they used him for blame to avoid seeing that they aren’t great together because Carrie was mean to him constantly and Doug was no saint he let her be mean because he didn’t want to deal with his own hardships
@@pandulce4447 or he was friggin clueless and couldn't care less as long as he was gettin some tail. Plus she was quite plain.
The fact that she walks away without saying anything gives u your answer
Sometimes it’s best to say nothing.
I really liked what Doug said about marriage. It's true. It's very hard to keep a marriage going I know. I've been married 32 years and it's not always been easy but (at this moment) I'm glad I did.
Well, Carrie certainly didn’t object much.
I was like “wtf?!”
Literally! Rewrite: "Doug..Doug ar-are you being serious right now? .....oh my god you are!" *cups hand over mouth shocked, eyes blink teary in disbelief, then she hastily exits stage left*
Well she’s got a great job and an apartment to move on to. And a baby if she chooses to go forward without him. Pretty bright future for her without him.
In the very least. Realistically there would be more words between a husband and wife over a marriage. Sitcoms cut the tension with occasional jokes or just cut it short altogether, but the very least they could have had her walk out in some glimpse of shock or confusion.
@@Gamer_Mama_0611 cow
Wow, she didn't stop after taking the first step up the stairs.
This scene was a hit of reality.
The fact that she just walks away and doesn't try to plead right him or try to work out is wild.
