Aren't I somebody, too?? (Ha ha ha!!)
Last night's series finale of Everybody Loves Raymond left me in
the same dilemma that that show's title has always provoked: Either
the claim of the title is in fact fraudulent, or my relative
indifference to Raymond and his kin excludes me from all
humankind. What about the rest of us—those of us who don't, in
fact, love Raymond? Aren't we somebody too?

Yeah! I'm not alone!
We are simple victims of the show's creators, who's wishful intentions allowed them to deny the existence of those who would never feel anything more than banal indifference toward dear old Ray.
You are not alone. There were neither tears nor hoopla at the Hot Chik hub last night.
The show had it's moments...I usually try out comedians shows before I hate them...I honesty WANT it to be funny...
This show was well written...but not always funny...
...so, no...I didn't LOVE it either...
As usual, you're all absolutely right!
