Tracker and Marshals are among CBS's biggest shows right now, but a beloved sitcom is currently reigning supreme on the streaming charts. These two dramas returned for their fourth and second seasons, respectively, on October 4. The former stars Justin Hartley as survivalist Colter Shaw, who helps police and civilians with various cases, while the latter is part of Taylor Sheridan's Yellowstone franchise, with Luke Grimes playing U.S. Marshal Kayce Dutton. Marshals is the top-scripted TV show, and its recent premiere drew 8.2 million viewers.

Some older CBS shows still perform really well for Paramount. One is Everybody Loves Raymond, which premiered in 1996 with comedian Ray Romano playing Ray Barone, a father, husband, and sports journalist who constantly angers his wife and is forced to put up with his parents interfering in his life. Patricia Heaton, Doris Roberts, Peter Boyle and Brad Garrett also starred in the sitcom.

Everybody Loves Raymond Remains A Hit 21 Years Later

Despite the continued popularity of Tracker and Marshals, and the fact that both are current series, Everybody Loves Raymond still beats both on Paramount+'s Top 10 TV shows chart in the United States as of October 14, 2026. The legendary sitcom, which ended 21 years ago and celebrated its 30th anniversary last month, is currently No. 6, with Marshals and Tracker sitting at No. 9 and 10, respectively. South Park, NCIS, Lioness, MobLand, and Sheriff Country are in the top five, above Everybody Loves Raymond, and Fire Country and Criminal Minds are at No. 7 and 8, ahead of Marshals.

Interestingly, Everybody Loves Raymond is the only show in the Top 10 that's not currently on the air. The comedy earned multiple Emmy nominations and won 15 times, with Romano, Heaton, Roberts, and Garrett honored at various points during its nine-season run; the series also won Outstanding Comedy Series twice. While it hasn't had the same impact on pop culture as other sitcoms like Friends or The Office in the years since, Everybody Loves Raymond continues to prove its staying power, as evidenced by its inclusion on Paramount's Top 10 chart.

For ten seasons, six friends gathered at a Manhattan coffee shop with a famously orange couch. The group — Ross, Rachel, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe — made this spot their second living room. What is the name of this iconic café?

AThe Coffee Bean BMacLaren’s Pub CMonk’s Café DCentral Perk

✓ Correct! Central Perk is the coffee shop where the Friends gang spent most of their free time. With its iconic orange couch and Gunther behind the counter pining for Rachel, it became one of the most recognizable fictional locations in TV history.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Central Perk. MacLaren’s Pub is from How I Met Your Mother, Monk’s Café is from Seinfeld, and The Coffee Bean is a real chain. Central Perk is where Phoebe played “Smelly Cat” and six friends became family.

The American version of The Office follows the employees of Dunder Mifflin’s Scranton branch, led by their well-meaning but painfully awkward regional manager. Which actor played the beloved Michael Scott?

ASteve Carell BRainn Wilson CEd Helms DRicky Gervais

✓ Correct! Steve Carell turned Michael Scott into one of the most iconic sitcom characters ever. His mix of cringe-worthy humor and surprising heart anchored The Office for seven seasons. “That’s what she said” became an inescapable pop culture catchphrase.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Steve Carell. Rainn Wilson played Dwight Schrute, Ed Helms was Andy Bernard, and Ricky Gervais created the original British version and played David Brent. Carell’s Michael Scott is the heart and soul of the American Office.

Often called “the show about nothing,” this groundbreaking 1990s sitcom followed a fictionalized version of a stand-up comedian and his three friends in New York City as they obsessed over life’s minor annoyances. Which show is it?

AFrasier BEverybody Loves Raymond CSeinfeld DCurb Your Enthusiasm

✓ Correct! Seinfeld (1989–1998), created by Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David, revolutionized the sitcom with its observational humor about everyday life. From “The Contest” to “No soup for you!”, it produced some of the most quoted moments in TV history.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Seinfeld. Frasier was a Cheers spin-off, Everybody Loves Raymond focused on family dynamics, and Curb Your Enthusiasm is Larry David’s later show (which is essentially a spiritual sequel). Seinfeld is the original “show about nothing.”

In this CBS sitcom, a father in the year 2030 tells his children the winding, years-long story of how he met their mother. Along the way, audiences meet Barney Stinson, whose catchphrase “Legen — wait for it — dary!” became iconic. Which show is this?

ANew Girl BHow I Met Your Mother CHappy Endings DThe Big Bang Theory

✓ Correct! How I Met Your Mother (2005–2014) starred Josh Radnor as Ted Mosby and Neil Patrick Harris as the suit-obsessed Barney Stinson. The show’s creative framing device and running gags made it a 2000s staple — though its controversial finale still divides fans.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is How I Met Your Mother. New Girl featured Jess and the loft gang, Happy Endings was a short-lived cult favorite, and The Big Bang Theory focused on Pasadena physicists. Only HIMYM gave us Barney’s Playbook and the blue French horn.

Modern Family ran for 11 seasons on ABC, following three interconnected families. One fan-favorite character is a goofy, magic-loving real estate agent married to Claire Pritchett, played by Ty Burrell. What is this character’s name?

AJay Pritchett BCameron Tucker CManny Delgado DPhil Dunphy

✓ Correct! Phil Dunphy, the self-proclaimed “cool dad,” is Modern Family’s lovable goofball. Ty Burrell won two Emmy Awards for the role. Phil’s terrible magic tricks, his book of “Phil’s-osophy” wisdom, and his devotion to Claire made him a modern sitcom icon.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Phil Dunphy. Jay Pritchett is the family patriarch played by Ed O’Neill, Cameron Tucker is Mitchell’s partner played by Eric Stonestreet, and Manny Delgado is Gloria’s son. Phil is the magic-loving, “cool dad” real estate agent.

This 1980s sitcom is set in a Boston bar “where everybody knows your name.” It starred Ted Danson as an ex-baseball player turned bartender and ran for 11 seasons, spawning the spin-off Frasier. Which classic sitcom is this?

ACheers BTaxi CNight Court DWings

✓ Correct! Cheers (1982–1993) is one of the most beloved sitcoms ever made. Ted Danson’s Sam Malone, Shelley Long and Kirstie Alley as his love interests, and a legendary ensemble made it a ratings juggernaut. Its finale was watched by over 80 million viewers.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Cheers. Taxi was a late-70s/early-80s sitcom, Night Court was set in a courtroom, and Wings was actually created by Cheers writers but set at an airport. Only Cheers gave us Sam and Diane, Norm’s barstool, and one of TV’s all-time great theme songs.

Andy Samberg stars as a childish but brilliant detective in this comedy set in a New York City police precinct. The show was saved by NBC after Fox cancelled it, thanks to a massive fan campaign. Which sitcom is this?

AParks and Recreation BScrubs CBrooklyn Nine-Nine DSuperstore

✓ Correct! Brooklyn Nine-Nine (2013–2021) starred Andy Samberg as Detective Jake Peralta alongside Andre Braugher’s scene-stealing Captain Holt. When Fox cancelled it in 2018, fan outrage was so loud that NBC picked it up within 24 hours for three more seasons.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Brooklyn Nine-Nine. Parks and Recreation was set in Pawnee’s government offices, Scrubs took place in a hospital, and Superstore was set in a big-box retailer. Only B99 featured the 99th Precinct and the legendary Jake-Holt dynamic.

In this beloved 1990s NBC sitcom, a street-smart teenager from West Philadelphia is sent to live with his wealthy aunt and uncle in Bel-Air. The show launched its star into global superstardom. Who played the titular Fresh Prince?

AMartin Lawrence BWill Smith CEddie Murphy DJamie Foxx

✓ Correct! Will Smith played a fictionalized version of himself in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990–1996). The show’s theme song is one of the most recognizable in TV history, and the series launched Smith’s career from rapper to one of the biggest movie stars in the world.

✗ Cue the sad trombone! The answer is Will Smith. Martin Lawrence had his own show Martin, Eddie Murphy was already a film star, and Jamie Foxx had The Jamie Foxx Show. Only Will Smith flipped his life upside down and moved to Bel-Air to become the Fresh Prince.

Both Friends and The Office launched spinoffs, while another iconic comedy, Will & Grace, was revived in 2017, 11 years after the original series finale. Everybody Loves Raymond is unlikely to get a revival, though, because it would be missing two key cast members: Boyle and Roberts, who died in 2006 and 2016, respectively. They also lost Sawyer Sweeten, who played one of Ray's children, in 2015 at the age of 19. Creator Phil Rosenthal and some actors have said in the past that a revival wouldn't be the same without them.

However, the cast did come together for a two-part reunion in late 2025 ahead of the show's 30th anniversary. So even though the sitcom won't be coming back, audiences can keep rewatching Everybody Loves Raymond on Paramount+, where it currently ranks ahead of shows like Tracker and Marshals.
