The new comedy gets the axe.
February 4, 2015
CBS has pulled freshman comedy The McCarthys from its schedule effective immediately. Since its October premiere, the series has struggled to find a sizable audience in its Thursday night time slot behind Two and a Half Men.
The move, which effectively cancels the show, comes after its 11th episode, cutting its season short by four of a total of 15 episodes ordered.

I love the show and it was funny!!! Why does it always have to be a gay thing? Ronny was just like any guy in this county, that happened to be gay. No one is pushing the gay agenda on anyone he was a well developed character that could be anyone in this country. I don't go around and say every single show that is straight based like "Friends with Benefits" from CBS got cancelled because it was based on an all straight cast with no diversity. There is no gay agenda, if that was true then every show I watch would have a straight agenda!! Its 2015 get over it!!!!

I really enjoyed this show, but I have to agree that it was a little too centered on the gay brother. I get that they wanted him to be the outcast in a sports oriented family, but that could have been accomplished by making him a nerd or something instead of gay.
And I really loved the bigger twin. He was so goofy and I loved it, he always made me smile. So....I get that it had problems but I will miss it.

too many people in the show, yet every episode is about Ronny or maybe one of the brothers. the pregnant girl didn't even need to be on the show. she basically just got in the way. nothing she said or did was memorable or had any relevance to the plot.

@bub. Totally agree, saved me from typing the same thing.
I'm not anti gay, just tired of being beat over the head with it in every new show. Making characters gay for no other reason than pandering to the gay community (unless it's what the show is about) is getting old. All I'm saying is not every show needs a token flaming homo. This show would have done better focusing more on the rest of the cast.

Very sad to see this show end! I really enjoyed it, very funny with a outstanding cast that worked very well together and great guest stars!
The show was centered around Ritter because he was top billed and it was about him and his family. He was the only one that promoted the show too, he was on Queen Latifah, Late Show, Home and Family, etc. Promoting it. Hope to see him and other cast members on other things to come!

Too much was centered around Ronny character. Ritter is trying to be like his father. Became annoyed with him after a few episodes and stopped watching it..other characters were good.

It took me several episodes to get into it but then I really started enjoying the show. It is a silly show but that's why it's so funny. It was just entertaining. Sad to see it go.
