The third season of the television comedy series Mike & Molly began airing on September 24, 2012 on CBS in the United States.[1] The season is produced by Chuck Lorre Productions and Warner Bros. Television, with series creator Mark Roberts. On March 14, 2012, CBS renewed Mike & Molly for a third season.[2]
The series focuses on the title characters Mike Biggs (Billy Gardell) and Molly Flynn (Melissa McCarthy), a couple who meet at an Overeaters Anonymous meeting in Chicago, Illinois. After Molly, a primary-school teacher, invites police officer Mike to give a talk to her class, they begin dating. Molly lives at home with her mother Joyce (Swoosie Kurtz), and sister Victoria (Katy Mixon). Joyce is in an on-off relationship with widower Vince Moranto (Louis Mustillo), who is often seen at the house. Mike lives alone in an apartment but is regularly kept company by his best friend and partner in the police force Carl McMillan (Reno Wilson). Other prominent characters in the series include Carl's grandmother Rosetta (Cleo King); Mike's mother Peggy (Rondi Reed) and cafe worker Samuel (Nyambi Nyambi). David Anthony Higgins, who plays the role of Harry, was upgraded to series regular status for this season. Season three of Mike & Molly currently broadcasts on Mondays in the United States at 9:30 P.M. following 2 Broke Girls.[3]
On March 27, 2013, CBS announced that Mike & Molly would return for a fourth season, to begin airing in the fall of 2013.[4]
