Nine Orson seasons in order.

About The Middle

The Middle stars Patricia Heaton as Frankie with Neil Flynn as Mike raising three kids in Orson, Indiana. Season one from September 2009 runs 24 episodes setting Axl sports, Sue cheer and Brick whispers. Creators Eileen Heisler and DeAnn Heline keep each episode to one Heck disaster.

Seasons two to nine through 2018 add 191 more to 215 total with college and job closes. ABC ended the run in May 2018 as its family anchor. Each season ends on a Heck toast with new bills. Watch all nine for the complete Orson run with calm payoffs.

Good to know

Watch seasons one to nine in order since Axl, Sue and Brick ages carry over directly each year. Later runs assume you know the S1 quarry job and S2 Sue cheer fails from Orson days. Gags reset weekly but the Heck love builds throughout. Treat the 2018 finale as the planned close with a drive off toast.
