The King of Queens was a very successful sitcom for CBS 15 years ago. But times have changed and so have audiences. Will Kevin James’ new sitcom, Kevin Can Wait, also be a hit in the ratings for the network? Will it be cancelled or renewed for a second season? Stay tuned.
Kevin Can Wait revolves around Kevin Gable (Kevin James), a newly retired police officer. After 30 years on the force, he’s looking forward to relaxing and spending quality time with his wife (Erinn Hayes) and their young kids (Mary-Charles Jones and James DiGiacomo). That plan goes awry when his elder daughter (Taylor Spreitler) and her fiance (Ryan Cartwright) move in. As a result, Kevin’s retirement dreams get put on hold. Kevin’s friends are played by Leonard Earl Howze, Gary Valentine, and Lenny Venito.

What do you think? Do you like the Kevin Can Wait TV show? Do you think it should be cancelled or renewed for second season?
I loved Kevin James in The King Of Queens. I’m sorry to say I don’t like this new show….Kevin Can Wait…..AT ALL. There’s got to be something better the network can find to put on to replace this show!
This is a well written funny show, with a good cast. It’s always entertaining.
He deserves a second season… Everybody knows that he is warming up, King of Queens for example was getting better with every season… Give him time and seasons!
that is exactly what i said and dont get me wrong there are people that watch the show and love it but their are others that just hate on the show just because and besides when the show gets renewed for another season i bet all the people that doubted that the show was gonna get cancelled after this season gonna be mad but for the rest of us it will be a celebration
Ok, problem people hating this show is time it’s on.if say odd couple was instead they have higher rating. It’s all about time slot.any given show in this spot would work. If this show was on the odd couples time it would fail bad.evn many with a plan would have even higher rating then this, if in that place. Hence, this show isn’t that great, But because it’s on the time it is it has these ratings.dont get me wrong.but anything on it’s time slot would be a winner.
i agree with that
Love Kevin can wait I want to see a 2nd season
Love Kevin can wait very smart writing reminds of I Love Lucy… the clean comedy for a change! We can’t wait for Monday’s to watch it! Every show has something to do about Kevin waiting that’s what makes it funny!
Clean? True because the series has no substance to speak up. Hence agree this show has nothing to offer
It seems like the show is trying to drop Kevin James into a new family in an attempt to mirror “King of Queens”. There are several problems with the show.
1. The writing is terrible.
2. It does not ring true that a fat guy like James would have a good-looking slim, and youthful wife. After all, He was twenty years younger in his last series and it didn’t really feel right then. Think Mile and Molly when casting fat guys.
Look Kevin James’ wife in real life and you will rethink what you said.
This show is so bad. Only reason why some people watch this crap is from his past show. Which doesnt translate into same funny and witty fun. Only reason why popularity is even this much is time space it’s on. Otherwise it a lot worse.look st the numbers they don’t make sence. To the point they been tampered with . I can’t believe people would be so simple minded to watch this crap. Goes show you , if network wants to make anyone star they have power. No matter how bad the show is. Perfect case where the show is… Read more »
Don’t know how view this crap.
If odd couple is being cancelled, man with a plan might not make after this season……..why in hell does cbs thinks we watch this crap?
Great show, hilarious. I just feel like he needs another wife. Maybe I’m just used to Leah but the new lady doesn’t deliver like she does. And no one can replace Deacon, Spence, and Richie lbvs
Coming from someone who not only loves and still watches reruns of King of Queens, I also own and enjoy both Mall Cop movies. Kevin Can Wait SUUUUCKS!
Cancel. Sucks.
I love the show. REALLY FUNNY
Cancel
Cancel?.it is a stupid show
Kevin Can Wait sucks. His wife is way to young for his character. They should of casted someone else in her role instead of someone in Adam Sandler’s circle. They need to cancel this show.
Great show, great for Kevin James to be back, and his wife is adorable, a real winner of a show.
