About this listen

The creator and executive producer of Everybody Loves Raymond, on how to make a sitcom classic and keep laughing

This laugh-out-loud memoir takes listeners backstage and inside the writers’ room of one of America’s best-loved shows. With more than 17 million viewers and more than 70 Emmy nominations—including two wins for best comedy—Everybody Loves Raymond reigned supreme in television comedy for almost a decade.

Phil Rosenthal was there at the beginning. United by a shared lifetime of family dysfunction, he and Ray Romano found endless material to keep the show fresh and funny for its entire run. Alongside hilarious anecdotes from the series and his own career misadventures prior to working on the show, Rosenthal provides an enlightening and entertaining look at how sitcoms are written and characters developed.

You’re Lucky You’re Funny is an inspiration to aspiring creators of comedy and a must-listen for the show’s millions of devoted fans.

"Everybody Loves Phil"!

I absolutely loved listening to Phil's journey and everything that went into the making of "Everybody Loves Raymond ". There's not a dull moment in this book - lots of laughs, incredibly funny speeches and heartwarming anecdotes. I already was a fan of Phil Rosenthal after watching "Somebody Feed Phil" but this book really tells you a lot about the person.
