TV show description:
This quirky sitcom follows the mishaps of adolescent genius Malcolm (Frankie Muniz) and his crazy family.
As the series begins, Lois (Jane Kaczmarek) and Hal (Bryan Cranston) have four children. Eldest Francis (Christopher Masterson) has been shipped off to military boarding school, leaving three brothers living at home; dim-witted but crafty Reese (Justin Berfield), Malcolm, and precocious and intelligent Dewey (Erik Per Sullivan). Later in the series, another son named Jamie (Kara and Jessica Sanford) is born.
Other characters include Lois’ dorky coworker, Craig Feldspar (David Anthony Higgins); Malcolm’s wheelchair-bound best friend, Stevie Kenarban (Craig Lamar Traylor); Stevie’s overprotective parents (Gary Anthony Williams and Merrin Dungey); Francis’ cadet friend, Eric Hanson (Eric Nenninger); Lois’ wicked mother, Ida (Cloris Leachman); and Francis’ wife, Piama Tananahaakna (Emy Coligado).
I wish they hadn’t cancelled the tv show. They should continue making episodes none of then have done much lately in tv.
I agree with both of my two fellow posters and would add that I miss having humor to nullify some of the crap I have to change the channel for these days. MitM mirrored my life in so many ways, maybe that’s why there are only three of us here, no one can relate. So if it’s on in rerun I watch ☆☆☆☆☆
its 2019 and still the best show on tv but if they did return to make a reunion movie it might change how people feel about the show like the full house remake I dont like it at all but I didn’t hate full house but even if it sucked id still witch it because its a classic and more realistic to how real family’s are
It will be good to have a petition to make a new series of malcolm in the middle
Can’t believe nobody has left a comment. Malcolm in the Middle is one of the funniest, well written sitcoms to ever grace the screen. If you haven’t watched, give it a shot, you will love….
