Wins Emmy

Emmy0 Comments

McCarthy wins the Emmy Award for Lead Actress in a Comedy Series at the 63rd Annual Emmy Awards for portraying Molly Flynn in Mike & Molly.

Instead of just coming in with funny lines, which is a blast, it’s more challenging to think of where the character is going. How do you relate to three shows ago? I like the math of acting where you have to keep all those puzzle pieces in line.
