"Mama Cast" -- When Carrie insists that Doug figure out how to invest their tax return check, Doug decides to buy an ice cream truck from a stranger, on THE KING OF QUEENS, Wednesday, Dec. 6 (8:00-8:30 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.  Rob Schiller, one of the series' executive producers, directed the episode written by Ilana Wernick and Mike Soccio.

While buying some treats at the park from the ice cream man, Doug notices the "for sale" sign in his window.  Figuring that this investment would be as profitable as anything else, Doug seizes the opportunity and buys the truck on the spot.  However, when he tries to sell ice cream on another driver's route, a turf war breaks out and Doug starts being harassed daily by a soft serve ice cream truck.  Meanwhile, when Carrie is asked to stand in as a "mom" at one of the model homes that her company is staging, she starts to warm up to the idea of being a mother.    

THE KING OF QUEENS revolves around Doug and Carrie Heffernan, a loving blue-collar couple from Queens, N.Y., who share their humble home with her eccentric father, Arthur.  After a long day's work as a parcel deliveryman, Doug retreats to his home for some peace and quiet, which is often interrupted by Carrie's slightly bizarre father.  Doug's only refuge is the little time he spends alone with Carrie and in the company of his buddies Deacon, Spence and Danny, who he turns to for advice that just might make his life better, if he only bothered to follow it.    

THE KING OF QUEENS is produced by Hanley Productions Inc. and CBS Productions, in association with Sony Pictures Television.  Michael Weithorn is creative consultant.  Tony Sheehan, Kevin James, Jeff Sussman, Chris Downey, David Bickel, Ilana Wernick and Rock Reuben are executive producers.
