Lame-Username-1234 Review of Where's Raymond?

Where's Raymond? (1953– )

From what I've seen, a Decent 1950's Sitcom

[7/10 · 20 November 2009]

I recently viewed an episode of this unusual series. The episode was Christmas-themed and has the thinest of plots: Ray's character decides to give a few presents around, and on the way, meets a young female friend who tells Ray what life would be like if everybody was "Ray". This allows for a interesting dream sequence that includes Ray doing an amusing dance, a dance slightly ruined by his use of black-face. Ray manages to just-about pull-it-off. The lead character is a bit on the overly-happy side. The episodes ends with a musical performance by Bolger and a group of young male children. Judging by this episode (found on a old-time TV compilation), the show was acceptable and watchable, if a little weak in the writing department. My copy is incomplete but has fine picture and sound.
