Rene · 12-12-2005, 02:50 AM

I'm a daughter- in- law myself and I understand completly Debra's excessive behaviors because mothers-in-law can come from hell sometimes

Although I loved the show EVERYBODY LOVES RAYMOND, I am inclined to agree
with you regarding Debra. I don't know how Ray put up with her constant
nagging and bickering. Yeah, O.K., she was attractive. I'll give her that. But
her attitude was always so negative. True, other TV sit-com wives sometimes
put down their husbands (e.g., Carrie Heffernan on KING OF QUEENS), but not
to the extent that Debra Barone did.

yeah she does nag too much. i was surprised the way she reacted in the last episode when ray might not have woken up really. in the simpsons marge is pretty optimistic and nice considering what a terrible husband homer is

How can you not like Debra!! Patty Heaton is my favourite actress EVER and no - she's not pretty - she is GORGEOUS!!

dlemond · 03-31-2006, 04:59 PM

If you watched the show from beginning to end, you know that Ray gets away with murder compared to relatively minor nagging he gets from Debra (beyond the deserved).

I think the character of Debra is great, not without faults, and in the real world no man would be able to pull the crap Ray does and stay married to a woman like her.

Unscarred · 04-04-2006, 10:23 AM

I think shes fabulous. And if shes abit crazy, can you blame her? I'd go f*ing nuts with those relatives!

Brian Damage · 04-04-2006, 10:26 AM

Debra was just a product of the environment she was in. She was constantly intruded on, insulted and ganged up on. I would be the same way if that was my life.

Whoraw79 · 04-05-2006, 06:52 PM

I agree.. cant stand debra

Unscarred · 04-05-2006, 07:15 PM

I cant stand the mother! I'm on team debra.

DragonGD · 04-27-2006, 12:10 AM

Debra is the only reason I watch the show. She's gorgeous (She got better looking every season) and a terrific wife. And she's right for getting on Ray. He's a jerk. He never puts any effort into the marriage unless he's forced to, and he's under the thumb of that hateful monster of a mother. The only thing that ticked me off regarding Debra was when she'd fall for Marie's "loving family" crap. Yeah, there were times when Deb could be unfair to Ray, but the hell she had to go through on a daily basis warrants letting off some steam.

And Brian Damage- your avatar is one of the best scenes in modern TV history. Hoo-ahh!

I LOVE Debra. Ray's a lovable horse's bum, so Debra has to nag! And, I love MArie. She's hilarious.

big bertha · 07-31-2006, 01:07 AM

It is not fair that she should have to put up with Ray's crap and not to expect a little harping. He was as dumb as a fence post!! I still don't think she was as bad as Marie. Now there is someone I would have liked to smack in real life. At the very least I think Debra should have given her a real good talking to. And then smacked her!! Lol
