Okay, let's talk about something that's been bugging me. Something sitcom-related. It involves a certain cop and a certain teacher. Specifically, Mike & Molly.
The Burning Question: How Many Episodes?
We all know Mike & Molly. Sweet, funny, with a dash of Chicago charm. But how many episodes are actually in that final Season 6? It feels...short.
The answer, for the record, is 13. Thirteen episodes. Is it just me, or does that feel criminally low? For a show we loved?
Some people say it's a good thing. "Leave them wanting more!" they cry. I disagree. I wanted a *lot* more.
My (Probably Unpopular) Opinion
Here's my hot take. Season 6 of Mike & Molly needed more episodes. Way more. Like, double. Or triple. Okay, maybe I'm getting carried away.
But seriously, 13 episodes to wrap up everything? To give our beloved characters a proper sendoff? It felt rushed.
I know, I know. Actors have schedules. Writers get tired. Shows run their course. But still! Mike & Molly deserved better.
Think about it. We had Mike, the good-hearted cop. Then there was Molly, the sassy schoolteacher. Add in a cast of unforgettable supporting characters.
Carl, Victoria, Samuel, Joyce... they were all hilarious. And they all deserved more screen time in that final season.
What Could Have Been
Imagine a longer Season 6. More stories about Mike's overeating. More of Molly's writing adventures. More awkward family dinners.
More Carl and Mike's cop shenanigans. More Victoria dating terrible guys. More of Samuel's wise cracks. The possibilities were endless!
We could have seen Mike struggling with a new diet. Or Molly finally publishing her novel. Maybe even a pregnancy scare!
Instead, we got a condensed, rushed version. Don't get me wrong, the episodes we got were still funny. But there was so much potential left untapped.
It's like when you order a pizza and they only give you half the toppings. You're still grateful for the pizza. But you can't help but feel a little cheated.
The Wrap-Up (Too Soon!)
So, yeah, 13 episodes. It's a fact. It's the official number. But in my heart, Season 6 of Mike & Molly will always be unfinished business.
Maybe someday they'll do a reunion special. Or a movie. Or, dare I dream, a whole new season! Until then, I'll just keep re-watching the old episodes.
And quietly lamenting what could have been. Because, let's be real, Mike & Molly was more than just a sitcom. It was comfort food for the soul. And I was still hungry.
Am I alone in this? Does anyone else feel like 13 episodes just wasn't enough? Let me know! Misery loves company. Especially when it comes to sitcoms.
