The King of Queens is streaming in Germany on Netflix, Prime Video, Paramount+.
What the audience says
The King of Queens holds up as a perfectly decent English series, if not a remarkable one. It carries a 7.2/10 on TMDB across 773 ratings — comfortably clear of the pack.
Is it worth starting?
This is 9 seasons deep — English comedy, not one for younger kids. Several seasons in, so it's a commitment to start rather than a one-night sampler.
- Why
- 7.2/10 from 773 ratings — well received so far, on a modest sample.
- Skip if
- a backlog this size is the opposite of what you're after
- Best for
- A proper binge, once you've got the weeks for it
Story
Life’s good for deliveryman Doug Heffernan, until his newly widowed father-in-law, Arthur, moves in with him and his wife Carrie. Doug is no longer the king of his domain, and instead of having a big screen television in his recently renovated basement, he now has a crazy old man.
