King of Queens

Blue-collar couple Doug and Carrie Heffernan (James and Remini) share their home in Rego Park, Queens, New York with Carrie’s oddball dad, Arthur (Jerry Stiller). Burly Doug, who makes a living as a parcel deliveryman with the fictional IPS (pun to UPS ) often has to scheme to find time alone with Carrie, who works as a secretary at a large law firm. This is complicated by Arthur, who can be quite a handful — so much so that they hired a dog-walker, Holly (Nicole Sullivan), to look after him. When he’s not working, clashing with Arthur, or nesting with Carrie, Doug hangs with his advice-giving buddies Deacon (Victor Williams), Spence (Patton Oswalt), and his cousin Danny (Gary Valentine).
