ItalianAmericanCaricature: The show is centered around a lively Italian-American family in New York, and all its male characters have something of the stereotype about them. Ray Barone is something of a mother's boy who thinks, in his heart of hearts, that women should do all the domestic work and child-rearing. His brother Robert is a competent street cop who can talk the talk but who still lives at home with his parents. Their friend Gianni is a bluff blue-collar worker and would-be Romeo, who shows great respect for the Barone parents. Father Frank Barone is a boorish patriarch who still attends church and has respect for the structures of family life. And Marie is the [[MyBelovedSmother overbearing matriarch]] of the family who sets expectations for everybody and provides the foodstuffs that hold it all together. If not capicola, there is very definitely braciole. With cannoli to follow.

* IgnorantAboutFire: Raymond runs into trouble when attempting to prove to Debra that he is a responsible parent and husband. He buys a can of potent insect spray and liberally applies it everywhere in the kitchen, so as to avoid the expense of calling Rentokil. While he is on the phone, the inflammable spray catches light from the stove. Soon, the kitchen is ablaze. When he finally notices he runs out for the garden hose only to discover it doesn't stretch that far. Debra walks right past him and picks up a fire extinguisher...

** In "The First Time," Debra tries to bury the hatchet with Marie over their largest and longest argument, but Marie has none of it and tries to ignore her. Marie then offers Frank and Robert some extra sauce for their pasta. Frank, for the first time in the series (and maybe in their entire marriage) refuses Marie's cooking, and instead insists that she talk to Debra.
