Any Malcolm in the Middle fans in the forum?

This is just one of those shows I watched one episode of and, well, got the DVDs for Season One next week. What can I say?

I used to watch that show all the time, haven't had a chance to watch it lately. Gotta be one of the funniest shows I've ever watched. Perhaps that's the next show I'll buy on DVD.

My favorite show is Bowling, though I've only seen the entire first season and a few episodes of Season Two. Has it been cleared for a new season? I read an interview with Justin Berfield and he said they were filming the last episode, but he didn't clarify whether it was of the SHOW or the SEASON. Anyone who knows this, please pass the info along - I'd be very greatful :)

It's such a great show! Hal is one of the funniest characters ever created, and the one thing bit that always kills me is:

[A mountain cat has just exploded]
Reese: Maybe it ate some dynamite?
Hal: No, that's just ridiculous!

The delivery kills me every time. Or when he's roller skating in the blue spandex suit with sequins :P And his obsession with crushing things! :D

I remember Hal saying the exact same thing, or words very similar, when one of the boys said something like "You didn't believe me when I made it to the final level of such and such! " video game.



Reese: (grossed out with wearing an outfit from someone who has passed on) Oh, mom, a dead suit? (rethought, now smiling.) Cool. A dead suit.

I loved the first season ep where Francis and the guys at the Military Schools had to go on manouevers.

They're all attaching various bits of camouflage to their BDU's, when Stanley enters, bare ass naked, and covered head to foot in the contents of several industrial sized tubes of camo cream.

"That's hard core..." mutters one of the guys in admiration/fear.

"Rollerskates." That's one of my favorites.

I can't believe Season Two has been put on hold because of legal issues with putting television shows onto DVD.

Legal issues? What the hell? That's a bunch of crap. People will record to tapes and they'll get no money from it, but DVDs aren't okay? :S

Malcolm in the Middle is great. Sky One are still currently showing the current episodes and I think they're great, espically Dewey. :D

I like all the episodes, and I love the attention to detail. Like the Hamster in a rollerball that Dewey released - for the next few episodes it would just appear in the background rolling past.

David - what do you mean about season 2 being put on hold? Have they filmed it and aren't screening it, or have they suspended filming? And why!?

Malcolm in the Middle is currently on it's fifth season here in the UK on Sky One, and will soon be coming to an end. Regarding the DVDs, I don't think the UK has them yet.
