Well I see there waiting until the end of the last 2 shows to sneak in the BS to ruin a good show I will not return as will scores of other people
I’ll miss the Millers. And last season I got sick of Mike and MOLLY! All of the shows were mainly about Molly…. sorry, but being nasty is not funny.
I’m not a fan of Mike and Molbut it seems that CBS is intent on killing it by starting the show in December. December is a month with fewer viewers and so the shows ratings will be lower. Not sure the harm of burning off a couple of more Miller episodes before the Christmas specials begin.
I love Mike and Molly, but I also love the Millers, I don’t think they should cancel that show, they should find another slot for it, they always get rid of the good shows and keep the stupid ones!!
GOOD RIDDANCE to _The Millers_; the ONLY reason it INITIALLY did well was due to its strategic time slot by CBS; otherwise it was CRAP; IMHO
KUDOS to M&M !!!
Not that I don’t absolutely LOVE Mike and Molly, but messing with the set schedule of their show seems a very dangerous proposition these days. Bumping the shows all over the place is how so many great shows have suddenly been killed off this season. I am running out of reasons to bother watching network tv anymore.
