CBS confirms it has cancelled the Mike & Molly TV series. Word that Mike & Molly‘s sixth season would be its last came from cast members, a month ago. This is the network’s first acknowledgement of the cancellation.

From Variety:
Newly minted CBS president Glenn Geller made the announcement Tuesday at the Television Critics Association press tour in Pasadena, Calif.
“‘Mike and Molly,’ listen, these decisions are really challenging and I have a tremendous amount of respect for Chuck [Lorre], Al Higgins, Melissa, Billy — the whole cast and crew,” he said. “But I can conform that this will be the last season of ‘Mike and Molly.’”
As for the final episode of the sitcom, Geller said, “I think the fans will be very satisfied with what Chuck and Al have planned.”
What do you think? Are you a fan of the Mike & Molly TV show? Do you think it should have been renewed for a seventh season, or is it ending at the right time?
I watch Mike and Molly and really, really like most of the SITUATION comedy elements of the show. Masterful SITUATION comedy is a dying art on television. Melissa is so on point with that type of art, even in her movies. I do believe much of Mike & Molly’s content sent wrong messages that some people may overlook because it’s a comedy and you hear laughing in the background. Cringeworthy wrong messages: 1a. Carl’s belief and many references that women are ******* period; doesn’t matter that they act “bitchy” or are genteel. His belief women are for sexual pleasure only,… Read more »
I LOVE THIS SHOW I WATCH IT WITH MY KIDS
I think they should not be cancelled.. Who knows what they will put in their slot.. Good things always get cancelled
Mike and Molly is a program I love to watch. I even watch the reruns over and over. CBS is making a mistake by canceling this program. People need a program they can sit down and enjoy, that makes them laugh, and forget the troubles of their day and the world. There are no words to describe how disappointed I am that I have no new of episodes of Mike and Molly.
I love Mike and Molly and have been watching it since the beginning. It’s a very funny show and I love everything about it. All the actors/actresses are great and keep you laughing. I’m very sad about this.
Everyone who watches network tv knows that once they have a good show, that takes a little intelligence to enjoy, some idiot in control will cancel it. Then replace it with some dumb down reality or a lame sitcom. Mike and Molly was not only funny and the characters are loveable. This is the reason more people are choosing to forego network tv and instead choose streaming on netflix or acorn tv.
What a mistake please don’t cancel Mike and Molly
Please it is such a good show
Very upset with the decision to cancel this show. It has good writers and the actors are spot on with their comedy. Please bring it back
I’m very disappointed that this sitcom has been cancelled. I look forward to it every week. It was a refreshing show about a couple just try to save money to buy there own home to start a family and just make it. So far I’ve been very disappointed with some of the new programming out now we always had this show for a big laugh. Now that’s gone. New management is always hard to deal with ,honestly they don’t know as much as they think they do.
I am mad that you could dare end Mike & Molly. We need more comedies on TV instead of shows like Criminal Minds which just gives that sick minded individuals ideas on how to kill people. It is one show which should never been put on the airways. I refuse to watch it after first few episodes.
I WANT MIKE & MOLLY BACK!! No more CBS for me!!
I hated to hear that Mike and Molly will be cancelled. I truly enjoyed watching this show.
Mike and Molly should not be cancelled. It was the only show I watched on CBS. Now, I won’t be watching CBS any longer!! I WANT MIKE & MOLLY BACK!!
I was so disappointed hearing Mike & Molly has been cancelled. This show was neck & neck with “Big Bang Theory” in my book (and that’s saying a lot for “M&M”! We will miss you very much. Is there any petitions going on to have them back? CBS is really making a big mistake. So sad
This is my favorite program ever, and I’m disappointed to see it end.
