Remini an underrated comic - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Of course everyone here loves her. But she doesn't in general get the credit she deserves. Hopefully, one day she'll get her due.

Part of the problem is James and Stiller are so brilliant that they would overshadow the talents of virtually any comedian. Plus, Remini's character was written to be less zany than Stiller's and James' characters. Carrie was the grown up of the three. When she interviews, you can see she's naturally funny and quick.

I agree with you. I think she is very talented. I remember her on "Saved By the Bell" and she shined.

The fact she is overshadowed on KOQ reminds me of Patricia Heaton on "Everybody Loves Raymond." When the entire cast was interviewed, she was actually very naturally funny and witty.

I agree, she has a nice dry delivery.

I have to agree with what you said. Leah is wonderful, very quick with the one liners and funny.

She is definitely very funny.

Hopefully we'll see some great stuff from her after KoQ.
