How do we love Raymond's fourth season? Let us count the classic episodes: "The Tenth Anniversary," in which Debra discovers that Raymond taped over their wedding video with the 1991 Super Bowl; "The Boob Job," in which Debra surprises Raymond with an apparent uplifting enhancement; "Debra's Workout," which leaves her in an amorously aggressive mood; "No Thanks," in which Debra tries a new, "nice" approach to win Marie (Doris Roberts) over; "Debra Makes Something Good," in which Debra's braciole upsets the family balance; and the Emmy-nominated "Bad Moon Rising," in which Raymond desperately tries to deal with Debra's volatile mood swings. Yes, it was a career year for Patricia Heaton, who became the first cast member to be honored with an Emmy (each of the core ensemble was nominated). As with the first three seasons, season 4 concludes with a flashback episode, "Robert's Divorce." But for the first time, the episode is capped with a cliffhanger, as Robert (Brad Garrett) retrieves his ex-wife's discarded phone number after running into her at a restaurant.

Series star and co-creator Ray Romano once told Entertainment Weekly that Raymond's best episodes start with "a small relatable concept and go somewhere bigger and deeper." Among the season's most memorable episodes that follow this formula are "The Can Opener," in which the entire Barone family becomes embroiled in Raymond and Debra's senseless argument; the Emmy-nominated "The Christmas Picture," in which Marie threatens to sit out a family photograph once she learns that Debra's parents are to be included; and the one in which Raymond discovers that Debra enjoys a good cry during her "Alone Time." ("Do you cry because I'm stupid?" he asks. "No," she replies, "I eat ice cream because you're stupid."). And all parents whose children came of age during the Pokémon craze will identify with Raymond's desperate attempts to scrounge up a valuable card for his daughter in the episode, "Hackidu." To quote the old comedy maxim: It's funny because it's true. And it's the universal truths and minutiae about family and married life that are at the heart of Raymond's enduring success. --Donald Liebenson

5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Hilarious Masterpiece, July 27, 2005

By	Peter Kaperonis (Sydney, NSW Australia) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I can't wait to get ahold of season four. I have all the previous releases and they just keep getting better and better. "Everybody Loves Raymond" is truly the standard of what true television should be. It's comedy in the classic sense without all the trash that has plagued our TV sets for far too long. It really is a show that will keep you laughing from start to end filled with characters that are truly unbelievably hilarious.

It's a shame that this show has come to an end but for the nine years they were on they really did present something beyond unique which all viewers will be able to enjoy for years to come with these box sets. A true television classic!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars So many good episodes in this season, May 16, 2006

By	Kevin Gumdrop "Steven" - See all my reviews

This may be the best season of the series simply because it's the most consistent, with very few filler episodes and even those have some redeeming quality.

It starts off with "Boob Job" with the message that boob jobs really aren't the answer. It seems kind of hypocrytical given all the plastic surgery Patrica Heaton's had, but it's still one of the shows best season premires. "Sex Talk" has some memorable lines as does "Debra's Workout" and "The Can Opener", and of course the brillant "Bad Moon Rising", where Patrica Heaton gives one of the shows most memorable performances.

The only bad episodes to speak of here are the preachy "Prodigal Son", "Hackidu", and "Bully on The Bus". If you're only going to buy one season of the series, make it this one.
