TV show description:
Created in part by Chuck Lorre, this sitcom’s story follows an obese couple living in Chicago who meet at an Overeaters Anonymous meeting. She’s comfortable with the way she is, but he’d like to lose a little.
Officer Mike Biggs (Billy Gardell) has a good heart and really wants to shed the extra pounds. His thin partner, Officer Carl McMillan (Reno Wilson), seems to be the opposite. He’s always teasing Mike but underneath it all, Carl’s encouraging to him. They frequent a diner with a Senegalese waiter, Samuel (Nyambi Nyambi), who has no concept about dieting at all.
Molly Flynn (Melissa McCarthy) is a fourth-grade teacher who’d like to be comfortable with her curvy body. Her sister Victoria (Katy Mixon) and mother Joyce (Swoosie Kurtz) both have it so much easier. They have great figures that they don’t seem to have to work for and pay no mind about eating right in front of her.
Mike speaks up at an Overeaters Anonymous meeting and meets Molly after his speech. Neither came there looking for love, but they’re also not going to turn it down if they can find it. Mike and Molly are willing to try it and see if they can make it work.
Episode #127 — I See Love
Mike and Molly gather with family and friends for a momentous occasion and reminisce about everything that led to this point.
First aired: May 16, 2016.
What do you think? Do you like the Mike & Molly TV show? Do you think it should have been cancelled or renewed for a seventh season?
What a disappointment that this show was cancelled!!! It was funny and “real.” Hollywood probably couldn’t handle the fact that she wasn’t a size
“0-2” and he wasn’t a tall, dark, handsome, average-weight man.
I love watching Mike and Molly. I don’t understand why you were cancel the show please explain.
This is nuts!!!! This was such an awesome show and now it could be made into an inspirational show in so many different ways!
Yes, Mike & Molly should have been renewed, one of my favorite sitcoms.
They should bring it back! It’s awesome that the actress lost all that weight and they should write it into Molly’s character!
Mike and Molly was one of the best shows on Tv cant Believe it was canceled whoever decided to cancel should be fired I heard there is a show coming that is suppose to be like mike and molly i will never watch it cant believe for someone trying to better them selfs u cancel the show and no one else picked it up wow BRING MIKE AND MOLLY BACK
I watch and Mike and Molly’s old episodes over and over. That’s how much I love that show. It should definitely have future seasons. I watch the 5:30 p.m. showing and stay up late to watch the 11:30 p.m. showing as well. I don’t care if I’ve seen it or not. I love the show. Keep it on!
Renewed, one of the best and funniest shows on TV hands down!
RENEWED! love the show.
They should have kept Mike and Molly on tv, it was my favorite show! Bring it back and get rid of 2 broke girls!
My thoughts exactly!
I can believe the producer/s would kill a great show. They have done the same with so many great shows through the years and replaced them with subpar shows. Not even subpar but brain dead. Shame on you.
Mike and Molly was my favorite show that was just getting better, so many story lines that were left unfinished with the airing of the season finale. The daily struggles of being first time parents, including sleepless nights and dirty diapers, as well as Molly’s morning sickness and all the joy that pregnant women endure! I thought it would be funny watching the dueling grandmas. Also Carl and Victoria’s reunion. So many amazing storylines left to explore. This show was just warming up, and now with so many episodes that could’ve Developed from the finale! I would be thrilled for… Read more »
What a joke! NBC coming up with a rip-off called “This is us”! Notice that they have Mike & Molly characters? They even look like the original actors, Billy & Melissa!! Guess trying to cash in on the popularity of Mike & Molly and hoping fans like us will watch their show instead. NO THANKS!!!!!! 🙁 Bring back the originals!!! The show was about 2 people falling in love while dealing with their dysfunctional families and friends and trying to loose weight at the same time. Melissa started loosing weight in real life and got “too thin” to play a… Read more »
I cannot believe this. Mike & Molly along with the other cast members on the show are what I would call, “So real Family”. The show keeps it real the way they talk to eachother, and Crack jokes is what families do. However, I am appalled for the reason why the show is being cancelled. This goes to show how naive and uncaring the producers are. Why couldn’t the writer of the show write a script on weight loss?, instead of cancelling the show. What happens to the other cast members? I believe that it is wrong and also discriminating.… Read more »
I know this is unreal. I love this show. Her weight loss is an inspiration especially in this time where obesity is an epidemic and she serves as a positive role model.
