Mike & Molly is a sitcom that premiered on CBS in 2010. The show centers around the lives of Billy Gardell and Melissa McCarthy. Set in Chicago, Illinois, it follows the tale of Billy, a police officer wanting to lose some weight, meeting Melissa, an obese fourth-grade teacher, as they meet up in an Overeater’s Anonymous group one day and grow in love with each other. They have their work cut out for them though, as they take a fair amount of abuse and comments, whether it’s from Mike’s good pal, or Molly’s sarcastic mother, they just can’t seem to get off easy!
