>its a military academy scene
fucking kill me
>>64443486
Half of the military academy stuff was really good, half of it was abysmal, that said even the worst of the academy shit was better than Alaska or the ranch.
I liked the scattered episodes where Francis was back at home tho, I thought he had a good dynamic with the rest of the kids.
>>64443634
Agreed, he really didn't need so many subplots. The episodes were short enough they should have focused on the rest of the family more.
>>64443486
>Malcolm in the middle
>Malcolm's in the top left
really?
The intro gags were god tier
>>64444097
>malcolm in the middle
>3rd of 4 children
this always bugged me
Military Academy was better than Alaska.
>>64443486
God tier sitcom, but the military school parts, were admittedly pretty weak.
>>64445411
Yeah.
>>64443486
>tfw I always thought Francis and Niel Patrick Harris were the same person
>>64444097
Technically that also made Reese also the middle child. When Jamie was born, it made sense. Malcolm was truly in the middle.
>>64445411
5 children by the later seasons though
>>64445527
Wait, what?
>Malcolm stop or I'll never have sex with you again!
>She had sex? She's a slut
>She's a biiig slut
Why are American high schoolers so despicable?
>>64445411
The middle class f a m
>>64443486
The point of Francis plot was to show what the parents were afraid for the rest of the kids, staying a screw up, in the last episode Francis finally buckled down and got a job like his father's, even wore a shirt like his too, i think
>>64445411
but then they had 5 kids and he literally was the middle
>>64445712
>>64443486
>not loving every second of Military Francis
What the fuck is wrong with you
>>64445712
You're thinking of the show "the middle", that title is referring to the middle class, Malcolm is a middle child.
Is the bowling episode not one of the most underrated episodes of anything ever? I still remember the double punchline for Hal and Malcolm in perfect detail and how hilarious they were.
>>64445982
That title is referring to "middle america"
>>64445411
When there are 4 children the middle child is worked out by taking mid-point age of youngest and eldest and seeing which child sits in the closest to that number.
Lets face it Reese could just as well be the middle child though.
>>64443486
when they did the mock war mission and had flour bombs and shit I thought it was the coolest thing ever and I wanted to do it so bad
>>64446156
I've seen it on various best television episodes lists before. Not too underrated.
If we ever get married do you think our wives will be like Lois?
>>64443486
What? Do people really feel this way? The Francis subplots were the best part of the show half the time. Rarely were they ever so terribly annoying they ruined an episode.
>>64446990
I fast forward past all of them, especially the stupid fucking Alaska ones.
>>64445411
hes the middle at home, though. Francis is already not there in the first episode.
>Malcolm in the Middle
>Malcolm's not the main character
Usually you put the character's name into the title when the show's mainly focused on them but it was always centered around his family not just Malcolm
>>64447414
It should have been Hal in the middle, to be honest.
>>64447414
He is the narrator you mongoloid. How is he not the main character?
>>64447469
>the feral kid is the main character of Road Warrior
>>64447469
So? Many of the episodes were mostly about either Hal or Lois.
>>64447606
Most were about Malcolm
>>64445411
If there's 4 children as long as he's the 2nd or 3rd he's in the middle. He's not any more or less in the "middle" whether he's the 2nd or 3rd.
And like others said, he's in the middle at home since Francis is almost never there.
>>64443486
>>64448719
says the balding manlet ugly failed actor.
I couldn't care how shit my life is, I just thank fuck I ain't frankie munichz
>>64445688
>Malcolm never hooked up with Cynthia when he had the chance
>he will never have a qt genius gf all through highschool and live a happy life
>he will always be destined to be miserable
>>64447606
>>64447871
Malcolm was without question the main character in the middle school arc.
Everyone got more or less equal screen-time during the high school arc.
>>64448813
He's rich, does whatever he wants, and bangs hotties. He's got it made nigga.
>>64445411
Hal is the oldest child you pleb, good lord
>it's a Hal and Dewey episode
>>64445688
Goddamn Malcolm was stupid.
>>64446305
>The Middle America
>The Middle Class
Pick one
>>64448978
he lives near me I saw him from time to time. he just plays in an average local band and does whatever he wants. pretty cool.
>>64443486
>its malcom being an annoying shit ep
>its the percents are crazy ep
>its kitty is a whore and you should be ok with it ep
>its racism/sexism is bad ep
>its they did not even consider abortion ep
>its we don't have any money ep
its basically live action family guy, Im not sure why I watched it
>>64443634
the ranch was nice, not funny but nice.
>>64443848
>rest of the family
like who?
>>64445411
me too, it bothered me less at first when Francis was away and you could forget about it
>>64448813
>>64448978
Don't forget the mini-strokes
>>64445527
my god they are not the same. I did not realize he looked like young Niel Patrick Harris till I was on season 3, I felt foolish and did some bad googling that lead me to believe that he was Niel Patrick, now I regoogled him and its Christopher Masterson kek, when I googled it the first time I even went to the show imdb to see what the main 3 were doing these days
>>64445688
ask the dubs.
>MFW he blows off qt so he can play baseball with his mom
>>64445712
>implying they are middle class
>It's a Francis returns home scene
>>64445951
whatever happened to the hobo commandant?
>>64446156
I both liked and disliked it. I disliked the fact that they told the same story twice and the fact outcome was the same (malcolm not getting a kiss,etc)
>>64446560
no,I would never take so much shit from anyone. I would rather marry the wife from king of queens
>>64444177
>the one where Hal pays Reese to take the blame for something he did
>Lois' screams
>we still don't know what he did
>>64446990
I always liked them, except maybe for the ep with the string in Alaska
>>64448719
the fact that he has to go "good luck moving out of your moms house before youre 35" shows his life is not as fun as he wants people to think, only thing missing was "y-you virgin"
>>64449839
Wrong. He runs into the boys room and says something like, ok 5 bucks to whoever takes the fall for me
Malcolm: what'd you do??
Hal: no can't tell you, yes or no
Lois in the background: OH MY GOD!!!
Malcolm: make it ten
Hal: deal. I GOT HIM RIGHT HERE HONEY!
>>64448888
he derives to be miserable
>>64450009
Sorry. It's been a while since I've seen the scene and it's the first one that came to my mind. Still a funny one nonetheless.
>>64443486
>its Dewey totalitarian tendencies are showing episode
>>64449739
>It's we don't have enough money to return Francis home scene
>>64445712
Why are people shitting on this response? This is totally correct. Lois even says so in the finale during her you're going to be president and like it speech to Malcolm. "They don't care about middle class people like us"
>>64450061
we still don't know what he did before he ran away to the army.
>>64450109
she just says people like us
>>64449673
>>MFW he blows off qt so he can play baseball with his mom
His mom was pretty fucking hot man
>>64449673
>no face
faggot
CANDYMAN
>>64450260
then why did they avoid her nudity to a point she could blackmail them by threatening to strip
>>64444177
Dewey: Malcolm today at school we learned about this radio show guy that convinced everyone aliens were attacking! What I'm thinking is we get some Halloween costumes and flashing lights to put outside Reese's window. Then we have a newscasting pretaped in the vcr-
Malcolm: Dewey you're overthinking it. Reese! Aliens just landed down the street!
Reese runs out of bedroom wearing a football helmet wielding a baseball bat: ITS EVERY MAN FOR THEMSELVES!
Dewey: oh. *smiles*
>>64450394
>then why did they avoid her nudity to a point she could blackmail them by threatening to strip
Lmao what episode was this? I don't remember.
And yeah, I get that the kids were repulsed by her, that intro scene where she pastes pictures of herself on nude girls in Reeses magazine comes to mind.
But in hindsight, she was a fucking M I L F
>>64444177
S06E16 one where Dewey wiggles his ass in Reese's face
Did anyone else find the final episode odd, or at least atonal compared to the show as a whole?
Lois just goes on a grapes of wrath style rant, yelling weird platitudes about class.
Further more its like she implies that Malcom's upbringing was specifically engineered so he empathizes with the downtrodden and dregs of society.
>>64450394
Reese sold tickets to younger children to peep on her in the shower. I'm sure he snagged some peeks and loved when she put her face in all his porn mags
>>64450477
there was an into gag with Reese wanting to flush the toilet to the water in her show would go cold and she said if he did that she would pull away the curtain.there was that time Dewey started screening when he saw nude pics of her.time when Francis had to put his hands into her.
>>64450486
The platitudes were pretty bad, yeah, but the engineered part is pretty spot on since it was her plan for him to become president.
>>64450320
>that classic sky one logo
Anon are you trying to make me sad?
>>64450578
intro,so ,etc. looks like im too tired
>>64450605
Best torrents are the ones from sky one.
>>64450661
I wouldn't know, I got that from jewtube.
>>64449980
Yeah, as cliche as it sounds, money truly doesn't buy happiness. He may be loaded, but stooping to responding to insults on Twitter means he's clearly insecure.
>>64450757
>money truly doesn't buy happiness
it could,he just is not using it right.
>>64450854
Ok tough guy, I just gave you 2 billion dollars. Tell me your happiness plan
Francis was never an alcoholic so way was there a mention of him going to aaa?
>>64451358
>so way was there a mention of him going to aaa?
There was. At least 2 episodes.
>motorcycle trip
>the one where everyone knows the story of Lois
>>64451161
buy a project.make a movie,game or something I like with a group of people. just retiring with the money is never good for the mind.
>>64443634
The best ranch episode is when the visit him.
I agree he had too much screentime, Francis should have been a recurring character because he was great at that.
why are title characters always the worst of the main characters?
>>64451358
Why would an alcoholic need roadside assistance?
>that episode where they go to the water park
>looks familiar as shit
I'm like 200 percent sure i've been to that water park, but I can't find a name for it
>>64451649
Pretty sure it's a water park used in other tv shows.
>>64443486
>QT fuckbois
>>64451649
Probably a six flags. They all look the same
Hal > Dewey > Reese = Francis = Lois > Malcolm

Calm down Frankie I really enjoyed both agent Cody banks movies and laughed my ass off at sharknado. Don't let their words hurt you
>>64444177
>Hal getting rid of a spider for Dewey
>Ends up running screaming through the house and throwing the spider out the front door straight into Lois' face
Dewey: "GO, get out of here!"
Hal: *Hal noises*
Dewey: "Get your keys and GO! She can only ground me"
>Lois' screams echo in the distance
>Hal sprints off
What else did the writers of this show work on? It's really hard to find out
>Siring 5 sons

I heard it perfectly by reading that

There's something very creepy about the family Malcolm babysits for in season 1
>>64447321

>>64453261
Francis
Reese
Malcom
Dewey
Jamie
Their last name is Wilkerson, it's on Francis uniform.
>>64445411
>early seasons
>middle between Reese and Dewey
>later seasons
>middle of all the children
C'mon m8, I figured this out as a kid.
>>64450498
He read her diary not knowing it was her and wanted to fuck. Reese would bang his mom.
Was Reese a product of infedility? He doesn't look much like the rest of his brothers and he's total incapable retard while the rest of his brothers all demonstrate either high intelligence or a capacity to do well.
>>64453865
*Infidelity
>>64453676
>5
So you didn't watch the series finale?
>>64453547
They were recording him. And they even had one tape labelled "touching himself" or something. As a kid I thought they were just afraid he'd steal or something, but now that mention it it does seemed kinda fucked up.
>>64454080
They don't say what it is dog.
>>64453865
>the rest of his brothers all demonstrate either high intelligence or a capacity to do well
Reese was a God tier cook, and besides, Francis wasn't above average in any respect.
>>64445734
But Francis ends up loving the menial easy work where he just got to sit in a chair and type all day, which is pretty nice.
>>64445734
>>64455032
This is the worst.
Francis was the most devious out of all the children, able to take points off Lois, outclassed only by Grandma.
He's the one that should've ended up as a nightschooled Lawyer or something. Reese getting cheated out of being a chef was pretty gay too.
>That late 90s/early 2000s Pop Punk soundtrack

Good music selection goes a long way in a show like this

They're songs that I would never ever listen to outside of the show, but within the show they work perfectly and are enjoyable. It's a very good combo, like Pete & Pete with Polaris.
>>64448888
nice trips and quads
>>64449759
he does get a kiss with the lois one
