Doug is a driver for the fictional International Parcel Service and lover of all things food. He is married to Carrie and they frequently bicker with each other. Most of their arguments usually revolve around Doug's weight, laziness, and lack of romantic gestures towards Carrie. He's frequently caught scheming with his friends to get what he wants,...
Carrie is Doug's husband. She works as a legal secretary in Manhattan and frequently tries to climb the corporate ladder by schmoozing with her bosses at the firm. She always pushes Doug to be more romantic or to put forth more effort in their relationship, much to Doug's disappointment. Carrie also has a short temper, causing some of the people sh...
Arthur is Carrie's father who lives in the Heffernans' basement after he burns his own house down at the beginning of the series. Arthur wasn't the most nurturing father to Carrie and even lost her birth name (Simone) in a poker game. Arthur was neglected as a child and, as a result, frequently acts like one during his stay with Doug and Carrie. He...
Deacon (left) is Kelly's husband and Doug's best friend. They first met when an unemployed Doug was trying to impress Carrie and snuck into IPS (where Deacon already worked) pretending to have a job. Ever since, Doug and Deacon have worked together as drivers and usually have lunch together where they talk about their marital issues. Though conside...
Kelly is Deacon's wife and Carrie's high school friend. Like Carrie, she has little tolerance for nonsense and is not shy about voicing her opinions. She and Deacon often have turmoil in their relationship, causing them to briefly separate before eventually reconciling. Dungey has portrayed recurring characters like Kitty Kenarban in Malcolm in the...
Holly is a meek and mild single friend of the Heffernans whose kindness and sweet nature are frequently taken advantage of by those around her, especially Carrie. She is initially hired to walk Spence's dog, but Doug later hires her to "walk" Arthur as well in an attempt to get him out of the house for long stretches of time. Holly is portrayed as ...
Spence (left) is the outsider in Doug's friend group. He begins the series as a subway token taker and enjoys comics, gaming, and other hobbies that his friends deem uncool. He lives with his mom for many years until moving in with Doug's cousin, Danny. Spence is usually portrayed as being weak (such as his food allergies and living with his mother...
Danny (far right) is Doug's cousin and ends up becoming part of his friend group along with Deacon and Spence. He loses his job (and his wife) early in the series and Doug reluctantly helps him get back on his feet with a job at IPS. Danny becomes roommates with Spence later in the series, something which earns both of them a great amount of ridicu...
Lou Ferrigno moves next door to the Heffernans in Season 3. His neighbors (especially Doug) frequently make Incredible Hulkjokes when referencing something that might make Lou angry or go "green." Despite others' picking on his politeness and calm demeanor, he usually takes the moral high ground in any given situation, like when he admonishes Doug ...
Richie (left) has known Doug since high school and they have remained friends since. He is a New York firefighter and always looking to pick up women (especially after splitting with his wife). He has even dated Doug's sister and Carrie (prior to her meeting Doug). Aside from his role on King of Queens, Romano might be best known for portraying Ald...
