Great, grat show. You won't get bored watching this. I wish more shows were like this... 20 mins episodes are perfect. Really easy and fun to watch!
I really like it, I never get bored
great show
A brilliant series of comedy. Each episode can also be taken as a life lesson
The Middle was such a phenomenal show. I really enjoyed seeing everybody grow up on the show. It was something I could relate to due to living in Indiana.
It will always be summer of Sue in my mind.
Quitting while you are ahead is an art. I will miss The Middle, but I love how I can remember its final season as a great one, instead of a "meh", or worst, as the season that ruined everything (does it not happen too often?). The show was solid entertainment from beginning to end.
Can you please add some photos to the episodes that don’t? :)

great show, but that Brick kid is so annoying. he gets more rude an disrespectful every season and that has nothing to do with being a teenager. I wish someone would put him in his place once in a while. he makes the show less fun to watch.
