Mike & Molly

This is an enjoyable series, but the initial blurb made me think overeating would be a major plot point, but besides being the reason why Mike and Molly met and being a topic in a couple of earlier episodes, it doesn't feature much any more.

The later episodes mostly revolve around Molly's hot-and-cold relationship with her conservative and protective mother-in-law, and Mike's exasperating experiences with Molly's liberal family.

I also love the relationships between Mike and his partner Carl, and their relationship with their seemingly-personal waiter Samuel.

But a lot of the topics seem recycled from other shows - it's like watching remakes of other shows in certain episodes. However, it is still an enjoyable show - I did not expect to enjoy it as much as I do. Give it a chance - it's not the best, but it's still a good choice for an average day.

Watch reruns at night before bed to help me laugh so I can get to sleep and survive the STRESSFUL NIGHTMARE that is our lives in 2020. Hilarious show, with good chemistry among the actors, and you gotta love little Jim the Dog (such a serious, worried face that pup has) This show is not really meant for kids, as it touches on a lot of jokes about sex, drugs, and love and hate relationships. I noticed a few reviewers bashing this show because of this, but no one wants every TV show to be rated G for God sake. :o Top 3 Favorite episodes: 1. Sex and Death S-4 Ep- 3 2. Vince Takes a Bath S-3 Ep-2 3. Poker in the Front, Looker in the Back S-4 Ep-5

The first few seasons of this show was so funny that I almost hurt from laughing so much. In the last seasons, it changed direction a little too much for me and I kinda feel that it lost its groove. Howver, the writing is witty and quick and sharp and very enjoyable. It's not predictable either, which happens with so many sitcoms.

Come on people, this show is super funny. It is actually very plausible that this could be many people's lives. I don't think there's anybody out there who cannot relate to Mike & Molly in someway or another. It may be a little exaggerated but overall it represents a normal chaotic life with embarrassment, insecurities, problems and lots of love.

Every time I watch it I can't help but laugh out loud. It makes my life look almost perfect and always puts a smile on my face. If you don't take it too seriously then you will enjoy it. And yes there are moments when you may be a little bit offended but it's meant to entertain not insult so lighten up.

Being a huge fan of Melissa McCarthy, I thought I would check this show out even though I hadn't really seen any previews for it. (I don't watch a lot on CBS) Seriously...it was hilarious. Especially for a Pilot episode when there is usually more back story and introductions than jokes and humor. I laughed out loud many times and found Billy Gardell, who I'm only familiar with from his work on "My Name Is Earl", to be charming and funny. Swoosie Kurtz and Katy Mixon were also fun characters. There were definitely a lot of "fat jokes" throughout the show, but they were all light hearted and funny. It's lovely to see a show where the main characters are overweight, and while not hating themselves for it, are trying to get healthy. I hope this show continues to bring the humor and showcase these two great lead actors!
