 The title sequence changed during the first five seasons. During the  first season, Ray gives a speech about who he is and etc. while  putting together a playhouse for his children. Eventually, he locks  himself into the playhouse. For the second season, Ray gives a  similar speech while raking the leaves, as his family passes behind  him on a conveyor belt. For the fourth season, the same speech was  given, this time with Ray sitting in a lawn chair, and the family  flying around past him. Ray swats his parents with a fly swatter,  and Robert is the only person who walks by, and Ray asks him "Hey  you didnt...", while flapping his arms in a flying way. For the  fifth season, Ray looks out the window and sees Frank, Marie, and  Robert approaching the house. In slow motion, we see Ray and Debra  trying to stop a blasting stereo and locking the doors while the  credits play over the footage. Ray, sitting against the door, thinks  hes in the clear, when his mother puts her hand through the mail  slot and feels his hair. For the sixth season the credits are laid  over the first scene and then a logo is played before the first  commercial break. The seventh season started with the announcement  "Its another season of Everyone Loves Raymond!" in a booming voice  with the family playing football resulting in Marie losing a tooth a  smiling with the "hole" in her teeth. The eight season went back to  what the sixth season had, without a dedicated credits video.
