mikemolly516smallIt’s been a long road for Mike & Molly, but the journey ends tonight, with the double-episode series finale. The last few episodes have focused on Molly and Mike and their quest to adopt a baby. Last week, they learned that Frannie (Molly’s former student who was now homeless and pregnant) planned to dance on a speaker for a friend’s band after she had the baby, which Molly was very unhappy about. So Molly did some snooping in Frannie’s bag and found a letter from her sister, Maura. She got the bright idea to invite Maura to see Frannie. At first Frannie was mad and refused to speak to Maura because she’d left Frannie with their horrible parents, but the pair eventually made up, and Maura said she wanted Frannie AND the baby to move in with her. That was great for them but bad for Molly and Mike, who wouldn’t get to adopt her baby. Then in the next episode, they decided to try with an adoption agency. It went well…until they had to schedule a home visit. Mike invited Carl and Samuel over in order to have the “black friend” and “foreign friend” demographic covered, and Molly tried her best to make everyone and everything picture perfect. Of course, things went sideways, especially when Mike tried to lean on the crib, only to decapitate the baby doll when the side dropped. Needless to say, they didn’t get to adopt a baby through that agency.

We’ve been with Mike and Molly and their families from the very first meeting, to dating, marriage, and now them trying to start a family. So how will the series end? I’ve seen both episodes, and it really is a fun, sweet, and fitting ending. I’ll be sad to see the show go after tonight.

On tonight’s first episode, “Curse of the Bambino,” Carl convinces Mike to go with him to see his psychic and Peggy drags Molly to her church to pray for something they’ve all been waiting for. Melissa McCarthy directed the episode. Then on the series finale, “I See Love,” Mike and Molly gather with family and friends for a momentous occasion and reminisce about everything that led to this point.

See if Mike and Molly can get everything they want tonight on CBS starting at 8/7c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Person of Interest & Blindspot.

mikeandmolly16smallI’m glad Mike & Molly is back tonight for the start of its new season. It was announced just a couple of weeks ago that this one would be its last, so here’s hoping we get a M&M baby, some happiness for Victoria and Carl, and Molly writes another best-seller. When we left off last season, Mike and Molly were celebrating their anniversary with a moonlit cruise with their friends and family, but after Carl and Victoria broke up, Mike was forced to uninvited Carl to the party. Carl came anyway, under the guise of being on the cruise with a date and not at the party itself, but he really made an ass of himself in a few ways and it seemed like not only was their friendship destroyed because of it, but their work partnership as well. I’ve seen tonight’s premiere, and it’s very funny, picking up not long after the finale left off.

On tonight’s episode, “Cops On the Rocks,” Mike and Carl go to couples counseling to try and reconcile their partnership. Also, Molly decides to do a promotional radio interview on her own after Peggy decides not to participate.

Find out if counseling can help Mike and Carl tonight on CBS at 8:30/7:30c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing 2 Broke Girls, The Mysteries of Laura, The Goldbergs, Law & Order: SVU, Modern Family, Property Brothers, black-ish, Chicago PD, Mystery Diners, & Restaurant Startup.

If We Controlled Your Remote… 4/13/15

ncisla413smallMy top pick tonight is NCIS: LA. On the last new ep, the team investigated when a missile test was hijacked. Hetty brought in a young college student/genius tech girl — who already had a job at one of the government agencies waiting for her when she graduated — because she was even better at hacking and what not than both Nell and Eric. Nell got extremely jealous when it Eric seemed to be infatuated with the girl. It was cut, in the end, when he realized he didn’t fit in with the younger crowd as well as he thought he did. He came slinking back into OSP and met up with Nell, and they had an adorably fun moment flying a drone that Nell had just upgraded.

I love that we got the glimpse of Nell and Eric’s non-relationship relationship — they’re too cute together — but I’m eager to hear more about Deeks and LAPD’s IA investigation into him. There are only a handful of new episodes left in the season, so if we’re going to get some sort of conclusion before next season, I think that story line needs to be kicked into high gear. Unfortunately, this ep once again focuses on Callen (which isn’t a BAD thing…), but it’s especially irritating because Kensi has to go undercover as his girlfriend. *laugh*

On tonight’s episode, “Rage,” Callen and Sam resume their undercover identities as a prisoner and guard to infiltrate a white supremacist group believed to be in possession of stolen nuclear material, while Kensi transforms herself into a tattooed biker to play the part of Callen’s girlfriend. Also, Callen’s first meeting with Hetty is revealed.

To see how Callen met Hetty, tune in to CBS at 10/9c.

mikemolly316smallOn Mike & Molly, Molly is now a published author! Her dirrrrrty book came to reality finally last week, but she realized then that her job wasn’t over. Sometimes writing the book is the easy part. Promoting the book is the hard part, as we saw when she spoke to radio station after radio station, even when sick and having to try to translate into Spanish. But in the process, she and Peggy, Mike’s mom, grew a little closer and entered into some weird new partnership, where Molly’s going to write the story of how Peggy went from a carefree, sexually open wild child to the sourpuss she is today. We’re sure to get some great stuff from that story line!

On tonight’s episode, “What Ever Happened to Baby Peggy,” Peggy makes Molly do chores in exchange for sharing tantalizing stories from her past for Molly’s second book.

Hear these “tantalizing stories” tonight on CBS at 8:30/7:30c.

I’ll also be watching/DVRing Food Fortunes & Castle.
