WHEN DEACON AND KELLY FIND NEW COUPLE FRIENDS, DOUG AND CARRIE DISCOVER THAT FINDING A REPLACEMENT SET OF COUPLE FRIENDS IS NO EASY TASK, ON "THE KING OF QUEENS," WEDNESDAY, JAN. 5

"Awed Couple" -- When Deacon and Kelly find new couple friends, Doug and Carrie must turn to their old reliable, yet slightly obsessive, couple friends, Neal and Marcy, on THE KING OF QUEENS, Wednesday, Jan. 5 (9:00-9:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Rob Schiller directed the episode written by David Bickel.

While Doug and Carrie are at dinner with Neal and Marcy, they are introduced to Marc and Renne, with whom they have an instant connection. But when Doug later tries to make plans with their potentially new, much cooler couple friends, he discovers that he doesn't know their last name or their phone number. Now, Doug and Carrie set out to devise a plan that unfortunately involves spending more time with Neal and Marcy in order to retrieve more information about the new candidates.
