“Everybody Loves Raymond” will not be getting a reboot, according to Ray Romano.
On “Real Time With Bill Maher,” Romano addressed the possibility of a reboot, saying, “As far as a reboot, well, it’s now out of the question because unfortunately the parents are gone: Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts.”
Boyle and Roberts portrayed Romano’s parents Frank and Marie Barone on the sitcom. Roberts died in 2016, while Boyle died in 2006, shortly after the show ended.
“They’re never as good,” Romano said of reboots. “We want to leave with our legacy with what it is.”
The news of no revival is a departure from other shows like “Night Court,” “Frasier” and “Roseanne,” which have all gotten their respective reboots in recent years.
Created by Philip Rosenthal, TV sitcom series “Everybody Loves Raymond” aired from 1996 to 2005. Romano starred as the Italian American Raymond “Ray” Barone, a Newsday sportswriter who lives with his wife,...

There are many good things to say about TV shows from the late 1990s and early 2000s. Some of the best sitcoms aired during the period, and they did several things well. We love the holiday episodes served up during the TV era. Several shows brought amazing classic Thanksgiving episodes to viewers, many of whom were looking for an escape before, during, and after the holidays. We’ve picked out four classic Thanksgiving episodes you should watch this year.
‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ always served up solid holiday episodes
Everybody Loves Raymond was a show that was made for holiday episodes. The holidays, especially Thanksgiving, really highlighted the dysfunctional family dynamics of the Barones. While the series had many great Thanksgiving offerings, we think “No Fat” is a classic.

Everybody Loves Raymond is one of those late 1990s sitcoms that still feel relevant today. The premise is timeless. A young family tries to navigate their lives while also dealing with the push and pull that comes with extended family dynamics. Ray and Debra Barone and Ray’s extended family kept fans laughing for nine seasons. Years after Everybody Loves Raymond went off the air, some mysteries still bother us. We’ve collected three things about the fame series that made no sense.
Why do Frank and Marie come in through the backdoor?
Frank and Marie Barone were extremely intrusive. They popped in on Ray and Debra unannounced multiple times a day. Sometimes, they popped in even when Ray and Debra were not home. Over the years, fans grew to love the random pop-ins, but there is one problem with them. Marie and Frank often approached from the backdoor when...

Everybody Loves Raymond was all about Ray Barone and his interactions with his family. Ray was, undoubtedly and often begrudgingly, the main focus of his family. While fans of the iconic series were equally focused on Ray, their attention moved over to the other Barone brother every so often. Robert Barone was one of the show’s most mysterious and complicated characters. Why was he so angry and despondent, anyway? One Everybody Loves Raymond fan theory might explain exactly why Robert was so miserable. Some fans think he was in love with Debra Barone.
An ‘Everybody Loves Raymond’ fan theory argues that Robert is in love with Debra
Robert Barone spent much of Everybody Loves Raymond miserable. You could argue that he was unhappy because things weren’t going well for him. Still, one Everybody Loves Raymond fan theory argues that there was more to it than that.

Everybody Loves Raymond had a rather impressive run. The show, which focused on the inner workings of the Barone family, managed to carve out its own niche, despite having stiff competition. Premiering in September 1996, the show competed against the likes of Friends, Mad About You, Seinfeld, and Friends in the comedy genre. The series still managed to amass fans because it was different from the other comedies on TV at the time. The series finale is what really set the show apart, though. The Everybody Loves Raymond finale was subdued and simple, unlike the more grandiose finales that seem traditional for long-running series.

Peter Boyle, whose versatility as a character actor took him from the Vietnam-era angst of Joe to a tap-dancing monster in Young Frankenstein to the cranky paterfamilias of the Barone clan on the sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond, has died. He was 71.
Boyle died Tuesday evening at New York Presbyterian Hospital. He had been suffering from multiple myeloma and heart disease, according to the Associated Press.
With his bald pate, wide forehead, dark eyebrows and eyes that could jut to sides, he flashed a manic glint that could be scary or endearing. A one time monastery student, Boyle turned to acting after he felt the "normal pull of the world and the flesh."
Boyle earned 10 Emmy nominations in his long career, seven of them for his role as Frank Barone on Raymond, which ran on CBS from 1996-2005. But Boyle's sole Emmy win came in 1996 for a dramatic guest shot on Fox's The X-Files.
Boyle in recent years had suffered with heart trouble. In 1990, he suffered a stroke and couldn't talk for six months. He had a heart attack on the set of Raymond in 1999 but quickly recovered.
Boyle won his first movie recognition for his portrayal of a blue-collared bigot Joe in 1970's Joe. He played a taxi driver in Martin Scorsese's Taxi Driver, one of the nocturnal cabbies who drove the same weird streets as Travis Bickel.
