Originally posted by tomtom232I'm not sure that anybody in the show loves Raymond. Certainly his brother (the one with the Bowser-like bass voice) doesn't.

the title means that IN THE SHOW everbody loves raymond 🙂 not everyone loves the show and WOOT! WOOT! is like saying yipee or woo hoo.
Incidentally, I had a bit of a crush on one of the two actresses who played his wife. Don't know the actress' name. I rather fancy it was the more petite of the two. I can't seem to find any record of her now on Google. It wasn't Patricia Heaton.
It may sound as if I actually watched this program, but I didn't. The only thing worse, in my opinion, on American television in recent years is Home Improvement with Tim Allen (the scoundrelly cocaine dealer cum bourgeois Everyman). Almost makes one long for Stalinism. Which is worse: big pictures of Stalin everywhere, or The Santa Clause movies? A real poser...
As for "WOOT! WOOT!" I don't know which planet you come from but I'm sure that Doctor Zaius would approve.

Oh yeah...and Americans didn't come up with woot woot anyways that was England with their rugby

Originally posted by Mark AdkinsInternet translation applications have clearly improved in recent times, but to be pedantic "ich liebe Raymond nicht" is a more natural way of saying it in German, unless you're about to tell us who you really love!
Perhaps this warrants some explanation for our foreign friends.
Here in America audiences, especially males in the audience, have developed an inexplicably crude and ape-like manner of expressing their approval: instead of clapping or cheering in the traditional fashion, they pump their fists in the air and shout "WOOT! WOOT! WOOT!" again and again. ...[text shortened]... by my normal writing voice.
My apologies for any confusion this might have entailed.
