Milling About with Everybody Loves Raymond Creator Phil Rosenthal

Turns out not everybody loves Raymond which creator Phil Rosenthal quickly discovered when he set out to document the turning of the American series into a Russian sitcom in Exporting Raymond. Rosenthal tells host Robin Milling at the 26th annual Santa Barbara Film Festival that the beloved show about an every man and his family got lost in translation. "I have Ray Romano in my head so I'm looking for a guy like that from the (Russian) TV show who should be every man, a guy who likes to be left alone and is not very demonstrative. They didn't cast that guy, but he's the exact opposite of Ray like a serial killer!"
