I agree. It was a sports weekend and part of Ray's job. I do feel that there was a bit of a breakdown in communication. First of all, why didn't Ray know that his friends would be taking their wives? He first blows it asking Gianni in front of Rob and Frank to the game over them. Then when he and Gianni get to the hotel he is surprised that wives were included. I'm sure in the course of their marriage Debra would by then known what sports weekends would mean. Men go off to play, watch and the wives would be organised for shopping and spa trips. What wife wouldn't jump at that? A weekend away and all expenses paid. I felt that it was extremely rude of her to not appreciate that when Ray found out about the other wives he asked her down. Another room could possibly be found for Gianni which Ray should pay for. However, Ray tearing up and eating BOTH tickets he is a total tool. Not one of my favourite episodes.

I completely agree with your assessment. These episodes were Debra's lowest points. I can appreciate Patricia Heaton's performance in Bad Mood Rising without liking the episode. I did think that The Canister was very clever, though, the way the episode was written and directed.

The Super Bowl episode and the babysitter episode which is on right now on TV Land.
Debra doesn't have an outside job but whines for help, so she gets help and is jealous of the babysitter.
I preferred Carrie on KOQ, she was bitchy when she needed to be, but Debra is always unhappy.
Nothing is ever good enough. -

I understand her position on NOTHING. She doesn't work, and all she does is make Ray do sht a wife should do, and then she infringes upon him with the Superbowl where she DIDN'T belong and then on top of it, she freaks when he tries to please her btchy a*s! She is vile and horrible and her character totally ruins the show!

Other than that how do you feel about her?
