Warner Bros. Television is peculiar for a variety of up-and-coming serials with one of them titled “The Middle” that has been created in collaboration with Blackie and Blondie Productions since 2009. So the series that is a sitcom by the genre is a long-running brainchild of Eileen Heisler and DeAnn Heline.

We cannot but notice that the storyline of this series is rather ordinary with the main characters hailing from one family named the Hecks. They are the residents of the provincial town in Southwest Indiana. Frankie and Mike is a married couple who owns three children named Sue, Axl, and Brick. The story revolves around their routine everyday life.
