I loved her in Gilmore Girls. Omg. I used to roll laughing at her. I still do. However, Gilmore Girls was, for me, her break out role.
@taylynmae137 жыл бұрын
"Melissa's first big success...Mike & Molly", "Her breakout role came in Bridesmaids." Ummm... Have you ever heard of the show Gilmore Girls??? It's just one of the most popular shows ever.

Why does no one ever discuss her role as Sookie St. James on Gilmore Girls?! Ugh...She was my favorite character on that show, funny and relatable!! It was hard not to instantly love Melissa McCarthy. So glad she is getting the recognition she deserves as an amazing talent and comedic actress! :) Can't wait to see her keep on rising!

Melissa McCarthy is a highly intelligent and hilarious lady who is breaking the double standard. Man can be fat and funny where being heavy is not the only thing focused upon so why not women too? However, the interviewer made me feel so uncomfortable. He was just not fit for her non -conformist, refreshing, anti-Hollywood style. You can't have an insecure, awkward, old stick -in -the mud interviewer interviewing a creative genius. What an awkward interviewer. He looked constipated, uneasy and even revolted. It's so refreshing to have a female comedienne so physically open and unafraid to let it all out. The men who comment in here and criticize her about her promoting being fat and that she would have no career without it are obvious angry, dingbat misogynists. You "people" are so transparent.

And for the angry fans....'Mike & Molly' and 'Bridesmaids' brought her to the mainstream, to the attention of the casual fan like myself... My girlfriend at the time of 'Gilmore Girls' airing did not watch the show thus I never knew about her at that time (bcuz at that age I would've never watched that show)

Over this past weekend, I saw her in Cook Off! Made in '07 but was released this year, so it was before Mike & Molly. If you've ever watched Drop Dead Gorgeous, and enjoyed it, you'll like this relatively unknown movie. And it stars many other personalities that have appeared on TV, ranging from the 70s, I think, to today.

I love her in the movies and I am so glad she is soaring as a star. Who didn't know this when they saw her on the GG's??? She stole every scene she was in. I know....Lauren Graham and Alexis Bledel....sorry...without Sookie that show would have never been the same. She was a star then and a total scene stealer. WE LOVE YOU MELISSA and we KNEW you had it in you. Lauren who? Alexis who? .... love them but look who is leading the pack!!!!!!!
