Marry Me is an American television sitcom that originally aired on NBC from October 14, 2014, to February 17, 2015. The remaining 4 episodes aired on Channel 4. The series stars Casey Wilson and Ken Marino and aired Tuesday nights at 9 pm (ET/PT)/8 pm (CT) as part the 2014–15 television season.[1][2][3] Marry Me was created and executive produced by David Caspe with co-executive producers/director Seth Gordon and Jamie Tarses for Sony Pictures Television.[4]

Series creator David Caspe loosely based the premise on his recent marriage to actress Casey Wilson, who stars as Annie.[5] Like Caspe's previous sitcom Happy Endings, this series is set in Chicago.[6]

On November 5, 2014, the series order was upped to 18 episodes for its first season.[7] On February 17, 2015, the show aired its final episode before being removed from the schedule to allow The Voice to air two-hour episodes for three weeks,[8][9][10] before Undateable took over the timeslot for the remainder of the season[11] - leaving four episodes of Marry Me unaired.[12] These episodes later began premiering in the UK from April 23, 2015 to May 14, 2015.

On May 8, 2015, NBC cancelled the series after one season.[13] The show was eventually released on a complete series DVD on February 16, 2017.[14]
