    Good episode but could of been better.Leah Remini's husband, Angelo Pagan, starred again.

    In this episode Carrie is turning 35. She starts recognizing wrinkles and other things that would make a woman crazy. So Doug gets constructing workers to make good comments to her while walking past to get Carrie in a better mood. It works but in a bad way. Carrie wants to be more active. So instead of watching tv on saturday nights, they go bike riding. Doug can't take that anymore so he goes back to the construction workers and tells them to make her want to be less active but then backfires.

    It was again another funny episode. The construction workers were funny and when Doug kept going back to them to make them holler at Carrie is a typical male thing.moreless
