Life on Comedy Central is usually a breeze. Double doses of Frasier, South Park and Scrubs are all good by my book but sometimes in the midst of a lughter coma you can drift into King of Queens, Two And A Half Men and, the anti-christ of comedy, Everybody Loves Raymond. Despite being the worlds worst tautology my hatred for this show at least inspired me to recast each of character with a real life counterpart:
Raymond - Too busy being relentlessy smug to realise most of the world hates the same repetitive schtick he's been pulling for years... step forward Noel Gallagher.
Deborah - Spends her entire life nagging anyone who will listen about the dullest quandries imaginable... Joe Whiley/Fearne Cotton beacuse they're basically the same person aren't they?
Robert - The more likeable brother who try as he might, still can't hide the fact that his talents are much the lesser of his opposing sibling... has to be Liam Gallagher.
Frank - Growing old ungracefully, little sense for political correctness, possibly hiding a far right leaning... Morrisey take a bow you old mucker.
Marie - Constantly mouthing off on the problems of everyone else to hide her own personality defects... Lily 'Some people are just bad at taking drugs' Allen
Amy - Humble to the point of embarassment, contibution to the world negligible... sorry bout the divorce and everything however... Peter Andre
Got any other sitcom archetypes to match up with reality? Post them below...
