Doug and Carrie Heffernan are getting back together. Sort of.
CBS announced Friday that it will reunite King of Queens stars Kevin James and Leah Remini in the two-part season finale of his first-year sitcom, Kevin Can Wait.
In the episodes, airing May 1 and May 8 at 8 ET/PT, James' character, a former Long Island detective, will come out of retirement to resume an undercover investigation. That means he'll be posing as husband and wife again with fellow officer Vanessa Cellucci, played by Remini.
The announcement comes on the heels of good news for both James and Remini: Kevin was granted a second season on Thursday, while A&E renewed her docuseries Scientology and the Aftermathlast week.
