Did they adopt a black baby?

My thoughts exactly. Didn't they do the same thing on the King of Queens?

Molly still had her shopping addiction. She is thinner but not very thing. The show still could have worked. She could still be shown to struggle with staying on a healthier plan. It's probably just a MM excuse. She outgrew the show.

?A big consideration is economics, especially in Mike & Molly?s case. Everyone initially signs a six-year deal. The six years will be up this season. This is when having a movie star as your lead becomes not such a good thing. License fees (how much the network will pay for each episode) are usually determined in advance and then putting together your cast and production crew is like an NBA franchise building a team under the salary cap. Sometimes the costs are just too prohibitive.?
Facebook doesn't always tell the truth. Especially in their advertising for a weight loss pill.

It looked like an "it" indeed. I'm pretty sure they used an animatronic baby, or whatever the term is, for the first shot we saw. Some of the footage as the credits rolled looked like perhaps a real infant was also used.

Maybe the fake latex baby skin on robot dolls just looked non-Caucasian to some. He certainly did not look Black - or any real ethnicity apart from Hasbro/Mattel to my eyes. Apologies to all concerned if it was actually your real human child in there all the way. Blame it on makeup and bad lighting???

Eeek!!! I'm getting dressed.

Now that you mention it, from what I have read, black babies get born a bit whiter and it takes a few hours for the melanine to get to the surface of the skin. So wouldn't be surprised if indeed they adopted a black baby and the production counted in that piece of information :p
