Malcolm in the Middle (2000-2006)

Malcolm in the Middle

• I think the most important thing about this show is that you’ve got to give it time. It took me the entire first season to actually get into it. It didn’t start bad, I just had to let it grow on me. Once you learn and accept the characters, it’s absolutely awesome, and one of my favorite shows ever. I just love how random the whole show is, even in the normal episodes. I think the writing is so outlandish, but so good. I love how there are some actually really touching moments between all the chaos. It’s not often, but every once in a while you get a life lesson here or there. The characters were really great, too. It’s probably one of the most chaotic and dysfunctional families you’ll ever see on TV. All the kids are insane, along with Hal and Lois. Everybody is so unique and crazy, and I’m here for it. If I had to pick a favorite, it would be either Hal or Craig. I loved everybody, but those two stood out. I never knew Bryan Cranston had such comedic chops, both in line deliveries and physical comedy. He is quite honestly the best part of the whole show. Overall, this show started slow, but once you get into it, it’s hilarious, addicting, and I’m really sad that I’ve finished it. I’d recommend it to all sitcom lovers. This show is officially Berry Approved, so go watch it now!
