The series was produced by Adam Sandler 's Happy Madison Productions in association with CBS Television Studios and Sony Pictures Television ( SPT controls the North American rights while CBS controls the international rights ). The show received negative reviews throughout its run. Despite this, it always earned reasonably good ratings, helping the show reach 100 episodes ( typically the minimum for syndication ) over seven seasons.

It looks at different relationships in various stages, starring Patrick Warburton and Megyn Price as a long - married couple, Oliver Hudson and Bianca Kajlich as newly engaged sweethearts, and David Spade and Adhir Kalyan ( the latter added in season 3 ) as their still - single friends. They often gather to enjoy a meal and discuss their issues at `` The Island Diner ''. History The show was heavily promoted by CBS during Super Bowl XLI and launched the following night, the first of seven episodes in its first season. The pilot episode remains the highest rated episode of the show. The series was renewed for a second season, which began as a mid-season replacement for The New Adventures of Old Christine on Monday, September 24, 2007, with production halted after nine episodes on November 6, 2007, in the wake of a writers ' strike. After the strike ended, CBS announced that the show would return April 14, 2008, with a further six episodes. Seasons three and four were both mid-season entries launched in March 2009 and March 2010. On May 18, 2010, it was announced that CBS had renewed Rules of Engagement for a 5th season. It was later announced that this season would start in September, in contrast to its usual midseason start, and received an expanded 24 - episode order. ( The fifth season was the first and only season to have a full - season order. ) The first 15 episodes aired on Monday nights, usually in the 8 : 30 pm Eastern / 7 : 30 pm Central time slot following How I Met Your Mother. Then on February 24, 2011, the series moved to Thursdays at 8 : 30 pm Eastern / 7 : 30 pm Central, following The Big Bang Theory, after the cancellation of $ h * ! My Dad Says. On January 31, 2011, CBS ordered an additional two episodes of the series to prepare for the possibility of Two and a Half Men going into hiatus following Charlie Sheen 's real - life issues, taking the episode order to 26. Two of these episodes were held back and aired as part of the sixth season. On May 17, 2011, the series was renewed for a sixth season to begin airing in fall 2011. One day later, CBS announced that Rules of Engagement would move to Saturday nights at 8 : 00 pm Eastern / 7 : 00 pm Central as part of the network 's new Comedytime Saturday block ; the first time in six years that an original CBS program would air on that night. It also marked the fourth night on which the series would air, with it previously airing on Mondays, Wednesdays ( two airings ), and Thursdays. On October 7, 2011, however, it was announced that Rules of Engagement would move back to its 8 : 30PM EST Thursday timeslot following The Big Bang Theory, replacing new sitcom How to Be a Gentleman which was moved to the new Saturday time slot. The episode order was cut from the original 18, down to 13 ( plus two unaired episodes from season five ) on November 14, 2011. Effective January 12, 2012, CBS removed Rules of Engagement from its Thursday lineup, replacing it with the new sitcom Rob starring Rob Schneider. Rules would return to its Thursday 8 : 30 PM time slot on March 29, after Rob had finished airing its 8 - episode order, resulting in a total of 15 episodes in season 6. On May 21, 2012, CBS renewed Rules of Engagement for a seventh season of 13 episodes to air mid-season, bringing the total number of produced episodes to 100. Season 7 began airing on Mondays at 8 : 30, starting February 4, 2013. On May 10, 2013, Rules of Engagement was cancelled by CBS after seven seasons and 100 episodes. The series finale episode aired on May 20, 2013. Cast and characters Main characters Patrick Warburton as Jeff Bingham, a financial manager and husband of Audrey since August 12, 1995. He has a rather deadpan, cold and sardonic personality and sense of self, particularly when dealing with Russell and Adam, but he is not sadistic nor unkind, thereby rendering these traits as merely ironic and biting humor. He loves sports ( NY Giants, NY Mets, NY Rangers, NY Knicks ), shuns anything that might resemble sensitivity and often views his marriage as a competition, refusing to let Audrey `` win '' the upper hand at anything. He frequently complains about Audrey 's work stories being boring, often forgets plans they have made or tasks she has asked him to complete and, on many occasions, embarrasses her publicly. He is also very frugal and extremely careful with his money -- to the extent where he will buy socks in New Jersey to avoid paying additional tax on them -- and tries to discourage Audrey from overspending while planning for their future. He often reminisces about his college days at Syracuse. Megyn Price as Audrey Bingham ( née Curtis ), formerly from Lincoln, Nebraska, an editor at Indoor Living magazine ( before later resigning ) and the assertive, modern wife of Jeff. She likes to do things on spur of the moment, such as when she buys furniture on the Internet or makes Jeff 's shirts into a quilt. She tolerates her husband 's insensitivity because she knows he is not malicious and will do whatever it takes to make the situation right once he realizes his mistake. As a couple, they both can be very condescending and manipulative towards each other, in order to gain the upper hand, and typically do n't like to concede to the other that they were wrong, for example when they both repeatedly lied about their whereabouts during a weekend when Audrey 's aunt was supposed to visit but fell ill. They, however, often recognize where both were wrong and apologize. Audrey does not make fun of her friends as much as her friends make fun of each other, but she will frequently save her most - biting criticisms for Russell. She often insists that she is a `` people person '', but her attempts to prove it usually result in embarrassment, such as having a co-worker lodge a sexual harassment complaint against her. Audrey likes to think of herself as kind, cultured and smarter than her friends. She desperately wants to be liked by persons and / or impress them, but her attempts at being charitable and sociable often end in her becoming frustrated, either as a result of her own awkwardness or due to Jeff 's manners. She and Jeff had a baby, Shea, via a surrogate, Brenda, after Audrey assumed she could never get pregnant, only to discover in the series finale that she is in fact pregnant with Jeff 's child. Oliver Hudson as Adam Rhodes, a sensitive and well - meaning -- but extremely naive -- co-worker of Russell and Timmy, and Jennifer 's fiancé throughout the series until they are married in the series finale. He is a neighbor of Jeff and Audrey, looks up to Jeff, and often acts on Jeff 's relationship advice ( which is hardened by years of marriage ) to attempt to receive more frequent sexual relations with Jennifer. This usually results in making the situation worse for himself. As an example, he once revealed to Jennifer his strategies for avoiding her bad moods, because he was proud that Jeff considered them to be a good idea. Oftentimes because of his childlike naivete ( almost borderline stupidity ), people find it hard to explain things to him. He can not keep secrets and rarely thinks before he speaks. Adam frequently exhibits feminine or flamboyant behavior and characteristics, which make him the target of many barbs from Jeff and Russell regarding his homosexual tendencies. It is to be noted that Adam, initially, was simply a smooth, charming guy who was a bit naive but over the course of the series, noticeably after Season 2, the writers opted to `` dumb - down '' his character turning him from naive and sweet to borderline moronic and dim - witted. Bianca Kajlich as Jennifer Morgan, the charismatic live - in fiancée and eventual wife of Adam, who endures his faults because of his good looks and underlying good nature. She is very self - conscious of his naivete, and will often try to spare him from embarrassment. She also has a need for thrills and can easily manipulate Adam into doing whatever she wants, but often feels guilty about it afterward. She was openly promiscuous in her past and is often referred to by Jeff, Russell and even Adam as being `` easy '' and always `` good to go ''. Her love for sex means Adam rarely has to `` work for it '', a fact that Adam enjoys and the guys envy. Jennifer did, however, attempt to fabricate a clichéd love story of how she and Adam met, due to being slightly embarrassed when Adam continually boasts that they slept together on their first date. She and Adam are often naive about their relationship as they typically assume they wo n't end up bickering like Jeff & Audrey, who often laugh at them for being so clueless & optimistic, and they think will be able to agree on everything. However, despite their best efforts, this often backfires specifically when they tried working together, cutting back on expenses or when they got into a big fight while trying to plan their entire future during a weekend getaway. David Spade as Russell Dunbar, an acerbic, womanizing single friend of the main characters and boss of Adam and Timmy. Russell is fast - talking, and is an eternal optimist when it comes to women, often ignoring multiple sexual harassment lawsuits leveled against him in the pursuit of sex. He is also an incompetent manager at his father 's real estate and development business, Dunbar Industries. If left to his own devices and forced to fend for himself without assistance ( e.g., from Timmy ) he would completely destroy his office in minutes. He is often mocked because of his height ( especially by Jeff ), choice of wardrobe, and his penchant for prostitutes and young women with `` daddy '' issues. He also frequently uses his wealth to lure women and do whatever he wants. In the Season 6 episode `` Audrey 's Shower '', Russell takes a break from women and starts to display many creative talents. It is revealed in a flashback that he was an intelligent child and a musical prodigy, until he saw his piano teacher 's cleavage and wound up taking a different path in life. His favorite expression, spoken in a high - pitched voice after incredulous questions about his doing something outrageous, is : `` I kinda did ''. In the series finale, Russell proposes to Timmy and marries him in order to help Timmy avoid deportation. Adhir Kalyan as Timir `` Timmy '' Patel ( recurring Season 3 ; regular cast from Seasons 4 -- 7 ), whom Russell hires as his assistant. He is a mild - mannered man with a quick wit, often matching Russell 's jabs in their verbal sparring. Although he is fluent in seven languages and holds an MBA from Oxford University, Timmy is often forced to do menial work or to solve Russell 's trivial problems. While many of Russell 's schemes disgust him, Timmy will often see them through so that he can enjoy Russell 's come - uppance. He plays cricket and is also an avid fan of the Boston Bruins. In the series finale, Timmy 's work visa expires and he faces deportation. In an uncharacteristic act of selflessness, Russell sets aside his womanizing ways to marry Timmy so he can stay in the country. This brought criticism, however, due to the fact that it had already been established in Season 5 that Timmy had been a US citizen for over 10 years which he revealed when Russell wanted to throw him a `` Citizenship Party ''. This was n't the first time there had been an inconsistent discrepancy with Timir 's background as he tells his then - girlfriend, Allison, in the episode `` Play Ball '', that he was an only child yet in the following season, in the episode `` The Set - Up '', it is revealed that he has a sister, Simran, who is currently living in Chicago. Major recurring characters Diane Sellers as Doreen, waitress at The Island Diner. Wendi McLendon - Covey as Liz, an unlikeable, annoying, unattractive neighbor and friend of Audrey 's who lives directly upstairs from the Binghams ; for a brief story arc in Season 6 she was married to Russell, but they later separated. In Season 7, Episode 7, she admitted to Russell that she is a sex addict and that she cheated on him multiple times ( with multiple partners ) during their brief marriage. Sara Rue as Brenda, Jeff 's lesbian softball teammate who agrees to be a surrogate mother for Audrey and Jeff. Nazneen Contractor as Suneetha, Timmy 's fiancée in an arranged marriage, who becomes an object of Russell 's affections. Susan Yeagley as Tracy, a man - hungry co-worker of Audrey 's. Beth Littleford as Laura, another man - hungry co-worker of Audrey 's. Taryn Southern as Allison, the object of Timmy 's affections, which blossoms into an intra-office romance, then ends when she moves away and breaks up with Timmy. Geoff Pierson as Franklin Dunbar, Russell 's wealthy, lecherous father. Orlando Jones as Brad, Jeff 's gay friend from his gym who eventually makes friends with the rest of the gang. Jaime Pressly as Pam, the Bingham 's initial surrogate who they soon soured on due to her sleeping with Russell. Heather Locklear as Barbara, Audrey 's sister who Russell has a crush on. Joan Collins as Bunny Dunbar, Russell 's wealthy, superficial mother.
