    I loved this show. I'm so happy rhey finally had a baby, n she got pregnant. This show should've continued. Wholesome great comedy show about families with real true problems. Also the comedy was hilarious and relatable. Bring it back, Victoria n Carl need to get together. Want to see the baby, n new one on the way. Miss Joyce, Vince hysterically outrageous.

    It was good to see the ending with them having a baby with them that's who should have never ended it was good clean fun half the stuff on TV right now isn't any good compared to Mike and Molly I know they have all moved on as actors and actresses the boy do I wish never ended that was a good one

    I came late to the show! So I’m catching up! I do wish it would have continued!I enjoy very much all the characters…
    Each one is so special….They r all very funny and great writers. I love the conversations! But I have to say that I’m an extreme animal lover and love him! Anyway, alls well that ends well!

    The final episode was great but it shouldn't have been the final episode. Mike and Molly was mine and my husbands favorite series. We bought it and have watched it over and over. The last episode was great but it should have went on for at least another yr. When I heard the reason why the show ended I was outraged, I personally feel that a show shouldn't end do to someone weight going up or down that makes the show more real true to life.

    I never had a chance to watch while MIKE AND MOLLY was on TV..I started watching the show on syndication...it was the best...I gave the ending a D...because I don't think it should've ended...it would be nice if they brought it back...even after all these years.

    Mike and Molly was one of my favorite shows. They ended it much too soon. I’m sure that watching them raising their baby while Molly was pregnant with their cast would have been awesome. If CBS was smart, they would bring it back again. Our country needs shows that make us smile for a change!!!!

    Please tell me someone is willing and able to take Melissa McCarthy (my favorite Actor) and create a spin off (one that doesn't force her into an unhealthy weight-her health is important) to continue the story of a married couple living with their opinionated family (it takes a village to raise a child) while raising an infant and handling the pregnancy hormones of the next baby to come. Personally I was forced to move back home after being in an abusive marriage, having 2 kids (1 yr, 10 days, 21 hours apart) and being forced to medically retire from the military due to PTSD, Postpartum depression x2, and because I chose my sons over the military (I was actually told by a sexist, chauvinistic, prior Infantry Staff-Sergeant who unfortunately became my new supervisor- that I had to make sure being a single mom didn't interfere with my job because the Military didn't issue my kids...it wasn't their problem that my sons were sick and couldn't stay at daycare!)! Living with my parents literally made me worse off than I was with my exhusband. There are so many people that are being forced to move back home and it would make sense to have stories that relate to the current struggles we face now. There is humor in it and plenty of lessons to help people who are struggling. Helping people see the humor is key to surviving now a days. Please tell me there is something in the works to continue the Mike and Molly story as they raise their adopted baby and go through pregnancy hormones while living with family! If its not possible then it would behoove you to have a storyline following either Joyce or Peggy as they continue to compete for the grandkids love and argue with each other about how to be a grandma ...or in Joyce's case..."don't call me the G word or I'll bring my knife!" Their relationship is also a very interesting part of the show. I know most don't understand Mike and Molly but its not their fault. Perspective is based on our experience! Its hard to see things with an open mind if you have not been in a position where you had to see things in a different way to understand your life or your changing options. Personally, I have too much empathy and sympathy for all. Whether homeless, starving, or considered a criminal I have always tried to help. The storyline, plot and comedy of Mike and Molly were familiar to me. If we are not put in a position to adapt and overcome various challenges then its hard to see the comedy. For example, I was raised by parents who did drunk a lot (one still drinks a lot), both smoked cigarettes while holding us (3 kids), had parties, and had friends who attended their parties and brought drugs! The weed, alcohol and cough syrup seem a bit much to most but it makes sense to me. My parents chose to drown their sorrows like Molly's family in the series. It doesn't seem far fetched to me because my experience as a child was similar. Psychologically speaking everyone in the world has an addition. Not all are drugs. For example Molly is addicted to shoe shopping and Mike is addicted to food. The series shows what happens when people live in denial and the affect it has on family. My family is still dysfunctional but they always try to have by back. That's the only love I know. Not always the best but my family tries just like the series Mike and Molly.
    I enjoyed the series because it was similar to what I've lived. Having a sense of humor helps us all survive. Please find a way to to continue the Mike and Molly story and please everyone try to remember to keep an open mind...the American dream is in the eye of the beholder! Thanks.

    I can not believe people thought this was a good show to begin with? They were complete idiots and the characters had no common sense. Not to mention the drug and alcohol use and drinking cough syrup with booze and saying "Oh yes, its the thing to do" I can't believe the show lasted as long as it did with also championing gross obesity as a normal way of healthy life? Give me a brake. Been afraid to make my feelings known for long time as I had my own abuse battles going on and watched hoping to see eventual cleansing of the addictions, but by not doing so ruined it for a whole lot of folks.

    I also am shocked that Chuck Lorre would cancel one of the three best sitcoms on tv today solely b/c Molly lost weight. What a ridiculous absurd line of reasoning. Then he comes out with a few more sitcoms of which have to be the biggest waste of money, taking up spots on our tv schedules namely Two stupid Broke Girls a show with no storyline, so much yelling, and simply a stupid show insulting the intelligence of viewers..... The next also ridiculous waste of air time, money and so much yelling is Ta-Da.... “The (stupid) Goldbergs. What a lame untalented bunch of idiots, can’t call them actors. Where in hell did you find these lame brain picks to do a useless show?? To think what winners you had in Big Bang, Two n Half Men with great talent and now look at what you, Mr. Chuck Lorre have produced!! CRAP! Maybe it’s time to throw in the Proverbial “Towel”, as time past, you’re gettin on in years and have lost sight of what a good/great production sitcom should look like. Shame on you, for cancelling a great show... MIKE AND MOLLY, what is/would have been right up there with Big Bang and Two n Half Men! FYI: Kutchner as good as he is didn’t reach the impact that Charlie Sheen made.

    I think it's stupid for producers to cancel show for 2 people making major changes in there life. I think it's great they lost weight everyone loved the show and still would've watched the show then losing weight having 2 kids keeping active for family values inspiring over weight people whom find it hard to loss weight. I think the producers mad big mistake people still watch show til this very day but want to see more we the audience love Mike & Molly & the rest of the cast on the show please reconsider bring them back bring them back bring them back they brought joy to everyone's living room.

    What a shame to cancel such a great show. I heard they were canceling the show because Molly and Mike both had a tremendous weight loss. Hard to believe that people trying to get healthy maybe said the trend for everybody else that's overweight in this country to start eating better and experience better help because of it. It was a great show and it was funny because of the people not because they were fat. I hope the powers-that-be have a change of heart and bring it back let it play itself out. When people get sick of it they will let you guys know. I think that might take quite a while before it happens thank you call sampedro and wife Sherry sampedro.

  • Gerda perry - 7 years ago

    I love like and Molly would love to see the family grow together

  • jenae heavilin - 7 years ago

    I hate to see the show over. I want more of Mike and Molly and see her give birth to there second baby, not to far off from the adopted baby. The show would be even better with the two new babies in it. It was already a fabulous sitcom, but made even better with them being parents to two toddlers. Bring Mike and Molly back. ????

  • Saylor - 7 years ago

    Get original already!!!
    Coping Rules of Engagement and King of Queens as a final episode is just sad!!!! Not to mention an insult to a great show!!

  • Tanya - 7 years ago

    Bring back Mike and Molly now

  • Nina - 7 years ago

    I want to see more of Mike and Molly and there new family

  • Mike and Molly - 7 years ago

    It should have not ended a great show...I don't watch many sitcoms but this was a great one hate to see it go...

  • vixin - 7 years ago

    I'm really sad. I'm gonna miss them it was a great show. But I would have like to see them parent together. Oh well maybe some other station might pick it up again that would be awesome! :-)

  • vixin - 7 years ago

    I'm really sad in gonna miss them it was a great show

  • Marybell Ramirez - 7 years ago

    I was very sad and heartbroken when I found out about the last season. I am a heavy person who looked up to the show. It made me believe that I will find my love of my life one day (and when I did found my Mike who I like to call him by that ). He was amazing because we love the same show. We would watch it together and never missed an episode. We also reacted all the episodes together with our friends helping us. We both love watching the show together, it has made us laugh , cry (mostly me) , smile and think about the future what holds for me and my beloved boyfriend . Who I love very much. When we have challenges , we thought what will Mike and Molly do in this situation. We have missed Mike and Molly. We have also wished it would come back on to do a couple more seasons. We also asked why did it had to end!!!!!!?????? When the show was amazing and wonderful

  • Ami Gestrich - 7 years ago

    I love Mike and Molly. I dont think it should of ended for at least another year or so. Im going to miss it for sure. Its a great show because everyone can relate to it. It made us laugh, cry and most of the time laugh and cry. I wish they bring it back even if its for a reunion special

  • Holley - 7 years ago

    Same ending as King of Queens

  • Hilary Willacker - 8 years ago

    At least they should have had 3 more seasons. Really wanted to see how everything turned out with them being parents and becoming parents again. Victoria and Carl's wedding and everything under the sun. CHUCK LORRE RETHINK THIS!!!!!!!!

  • Tanya Whisenant - 8 years ago

    The ending of M&M affects me on a personal level. My husband and I started dating a month before the series aired in 2010. We too are a large couple and were surprised how we paralleled the show. We got engaged and married and had so many similar situations that it was spooky. To have the series end feels like we are losing a good friend. Thank you for giving a humorous glimpse into the situations that large people encounter!

  • PAM - 8 years ago

    I would really like to know why they ended that show??? The only thing I can think of is money. I just don't understand how they have such a great show and they let it go.

  • Lilblondie1974 - 8 years ago

    Very disappointed!

    I loved Mike & Molly! Faithful watcher to the end! And the ending was so frustrating and disappointing!! They opened up more story lines with the last two episodes and could have taken it so far with many more seasons!

    Why not answer just a few questions at the end?

    Have it close, "one year later", say at Carl and Victoria's wedding, showing the little boy growing up and the new baby (what did she have??)

    ....something, anything!

    It left me a little peeved and I can't believe the cancelled such a simple but hilarious show with a one of kind cast!

    Hope they reconsider and surprise us! Would be nice to see the show back in the fall line-up, but I won't hold my breath!

    Will definitely miss this show! Chuck Lorre, what were you thinking?

  • Suzan Anton - 8 years ago

    How can CBS be so stupid to cancel Mike and Molly. What a hilarious and loving cast of characters! That show was laugh out laugh funny. What a loss - yet the friggin no talented kardashians live on.

  • Cheryl - 8 years ago

    The last few shows were so funny and entertaining!! Too bad it was canceled, great show and great cast!!

  • Kim - 8 years ago

    Too bad it ended the exact same way that Rules of Engagement ended. Couldn't have thought of a new ending to adopting???

  • Cindy - 8 years ago

    I think it's a shame to cancel the good shows and leave on so many reality shows and dimwitted sitcoms. A good example is that 2 Broke girls. I agree that this show could have ran several more seasons. It really would have been nice to see them as parents. Chuck Lorre, you need to rethink this.

  • sharon l monteiro - 8 years ago

    I will really miss this show. I did shed some tears while watching the last episode. It would have been great to watch for a bit longer as the kids grew and all the funny stuff that we could have watched. I'm sick of these production companies axing good shows for reality shows. There's nothing real about all the reality shows anyway- I guess producers think most of us are lame.
    Melissa is such a good actress and so funny. I will watch anything she's in. Good luck to all of them. They made me laugh and identify with alot of things out of my own life.

  • Jowanna Peterson - 8 years ago

    They need at LEAST 5 more seasons!!!! Will really miss this sitcom.

  • Dena Linzay - 8 years ago

    I think they need one more season. Hated it ended without seeing them as parents

  • Melody - 8 years ago

    Wonderful ending of a wonderful season!! It's a shame CBS is not as taken with M&M as I am. It's great entertainment at its best!

  • noitaw - 8 years ago

    Like "Rules of Engagement" before it, Mike and Molly was also a funny show that pulled in good numbers and still got prematurely canceled, and both ending with the lead couple gettting an adopted baby and a surprise pregnancy. CBS is lame, so producer James Brooks gave both his short changed shows the same pat endings.

  • Allen - 8 years ago

    The comments were perfect , WHY end a perfectly good comedy , so entertaining ,. I rarely watch sitcoms but my sweat heart and I have watched the show since Mike and Molly begin . So so sad to have such a heartwarming ending for ever and ever. I bet they will have a little Mike and Molly show down the road. Just want to say Good Job to all of the wonderful cast . Till later.

  • Greg Ryan - 8 years ago

    Great show! Great cast! It should have had a couple more seasons. Certainly better than just about any other sitcom currently on the air

  • Dave Garland - 8 years ago

    I absolutely agree that this well written and well acted sitcom ended way too soon. My only disappointment with this final episode was that it ended almost exactly like how a couple of other very popular sitcoms ended. My guess is that this was done by design to follow a pattern, but I would have liked to see more originality instead of being so predictable. Nonetheless, I will miss Mike & Molly! I really like smart and endearing comedies!!

  • linda jiannuzzi - 8 years ago

    As the person ahead of me said...great ending but why did it have to end!!! Probably some inner politics at work here...everyone in this cast is great!!! Wish there could have been 50 more years...now you just left it with new material not being seen..we want to see how children ..etc played out...hope we get reruns at least

  • Diane McGonagle - 8 years ago

    It ended beautifully but why did it have to end? Exceptional cast, how often does that happen!
    Wonderful blend of humor and soul. Why end it?
    You had Melissa for goodness sakes - why end it!
    Billy - perfect choice.
    Rest of the cast played to them perfectly and had their own great characters to play out.
    I hate it when shows I really care about end no matter if five or ten years. This one should have been ten, I'd settle for eight. Do a movie!
    Missing it already.
    PS I do have a life:) this was just good entertainment.
    PSS I have never done anything like this before. I just wanted you, and you and whoever sees this to know that it is a show worth missing. I will be wondering how Mike and Molly will be getting along with their babies, how their families and Mike's partner will be driving them crazy with all their solid advice...
