atomius Review of Malcolm in the Middle

Malcolm in the Middle (2000–2006)

A family lives a dysfunctional life

[10/10 · 21 February 2008]

Malcolm In the Middle is about a family, especially one of the children, in America. They are dysfunctional and are always having to solve problems or get out of sticky or bizarre situations. This leads to much adventure. Malcolm himself talks directly to the audience which is interesting, and the show has a nice style. The humour is hilarious and the script up there with the old Simpsons eps, Pepper Ann and Seinfeld in its hilarity and intelligence. The gags are great and the plots original to say the least. Certainly a show worthy of watching, and very entertaining. The characters are great too, with interesting personalities. This has to be one of the best live action shows ever.
