'Everybody Loves Raymond' Cast: Where Is The Original Cast Now?

It’s been more than 20 years since audiences said goodbye to ‘Everybody Loves Raymond.’ Premiering in 1996, the CBS sitcom became one of television’s most successful comedies. In 2025, most of the cast reunited for a 30th anniversary special, though the stars made clear they had no interest in rebooting the series full-time. What have the cast been up to since the show wrapped in 2005? Ray Romano led the show as sportswriter Ray Barone, a role that earned him an Emmy and helped make him one of TV’s most recognizable sitcom stars. After the series ended, he continued working steadily in television on shows like ‘Parenthood,’ ‘Vinyl,’ and ‘Get Shorty.’ He also voiced Manny in the hugely successful ‘Ice Age’ franchise and appeared in films including ‘The Irishman’ and ‘The Big Sick.’ In recent years, he starred in Netflix’s ‘No Good Deed’ and joined season two of ‘Running Point.’ Patricia Heaton played Debra Barone, Ray’s sharp-witted wife, winning back-to-back Emmy Awards for her performance. Following ‘Everybody Loves Raymond,’ she found more sitcom success with ‘The Middle,’ which also ran for nine seasons. She later starred in ‘Carol’s Second Act,’ released several books, and continued appearing in films and television projects, including a guest role in the ‘Frasier’ reboot. Brad Garrett starred as Ray’s older brother Robert, the sarcastic New York police officer who became one of the show’s standout characters. During the sitcom’s run, Garrett earned multiple Emmy Awards and built a strong reputation as both an actor and stand-up comedian. After the series ended, he appeared in shows like ‘The Crazy Ones,’ ‘Single Parents,’ and ‘High Desert.’ Peter Boyle played Frank Barone, Ray and Robert’s blunt and often argumentative father. Long before joining the sitcom, Boyle had already built a respected film career with roles in classics like ‘Young Frankenstein’ and ‘Taxi Driver.’ He died in 2006 shortly after the show wrapped at the age of 71 following complications related to multiple myeloma and heart disease.
