“Well maybe she wouldn’t be a lesbian if you tucked in your shirt once in a while.”
Such a Lois thing to say. 😆
lets say dewey was the prodigy, it would be interesting to see what a “boy genius” thinks like at such a young age, especially when he gets into the musical arts.
My least favorite episode is Evacuation, seriously Lois was just being out of character in that episode and she ground Malcolm all because of didn’t came home on time to move the couch, which is funny because moving a couch is a two man job, I mean Reese is physically stronger than Malcolm after all so what’s the point of waiting for Malcolm to came home. Plus Malcolm was doing his homework, but at least Lois got her competence at the end.
Like Malcom is so genius he knows he is in a tv show ? Wife and I just started watching the show. We watched it off and on 24 years ago so this is our first real watch. We just started episode 2 of season 1 so don’t spoil anything- please.
I do.
S6 Ep16 “Motorcycles” Unpopular opinion Francis should have disclosed to Hal he was sober sooner
Hal goes through all this effort to make Francis’s birthday special. I don’t think Hal would have minded Francis being sober, he just felt rejected. Think about it: Francis emancipates himself, gets married and gets sober all without letting his parents know. I think Hal just wished he was being considered or included in half these decisions. It is also evident that Hal wasn’t even aware of Francis’s “drinking problem” (I use quotation marks because we this further discussed in the A.A. episode.)
I realize sobriety is very personal and different timelines occur for people. But I feel like letting someone know you’re sober provides almost the same courtesy you can give as saying you’re vegetarian. I feel like Hal just misses watching his son grow up, which circles back as to possibly why he put so much effort in Francis’s birthday in the first place.
It used to air on CC India when that launched In the pandemic, I started watching it from the start with my mum and on and off, I finally saw the ending of the show last week
It inspired me, since I'm going to be heading to college soon and i'll be poor too and have to work hard.
Btw, I was making a "Best of" list, moments and eps that were really memorable to me
Like,
The Thanksgiving ep, The Billboard ep, The Food Roof Throw, The Nuclear Site one etc
I can't figure out where these two moments are from :-
Cynthia talks about her parents baking Marx/Stalin cookies in the cafeteria
Lois sprays water on the kids using the kitchen spray
(S2-3 is literal peak, nothing but iconic episodes, BACK to BACK! the writers really put everything into it)
Just finished watching all of Breaking Bad for the 2nd time and then decided to watch Malcolm in the Middle (for the first time).
Got me into watching a whole bunch of fan created parody videos of MITM and BB. One of the early videos I watched was a parody video of various clips entirely from MITM that made it out like he was Walt from BB. Really want to re-watch this but I cannot for the life of me find it.
Does anyone know the video and is anyone able to link it please?
Throughout the series there are two vehicles that alway seem to be a constant in the show: The Plymouth Grand Voyager and the Dodge Dynasty. I am just curious to know which vehicle Hal and Lois owned as in which one was the one they drove mostly. Did Hal have the Grand Voyager and Lois have the Dynasty or was it the other way around?
Let’s talk. I really enjoyed Lois’ talk with Malcolm about sex. I always loved Hal’s creative nature. I actually enjoyed that they were even able to keep a roof over their head. My favorite part as a parent now, I know a few things about unruly kids.
What’s your favorite parenting style/lesson you’ve taken from Lois and Hal?
The idea of this post is to discuss about an episode only showing an Spotify capture of one song that appeared in this. Perhaps I'll upload some more those days.
There is an episode on the tip of my tongue that I just can't find. In the episode, Lois visits with a specialist (either someone from the school or a therapist or something) who teaches her about mirroring, repeating what has just been said to give the illusion of engaging with what someone is saying. She tries this out on Malcolm only to be immediately called out on it by a frustrated Malcolm. Does anyone know what episode this is from? It's driving me crazy!
I just finished watching the entire show again for the first time in years. I vividly remember a scene where Malcolm is talking about a specific degree he wants to / will take in college, most likely in the last episode. I remember it as something that ‚sounds smart‘ but doesn‘t quite exist, I think it was ‚nuclear biology‘. I remember researching the degree and finding forum/reddit entries discussing this specifially which explained that the degree doesn‘t exist. Now I didn‘t notice any reference to this whatsoever, I googled and everywhere it says his specific degree wasn’t mentioned. I am really confused because I was 100% sure about this before. Could anyone tell me if I might confuse it or remember something in the wrong context? I would really appreciate any hints!
I just noticed this. Was the contract renewed?!
For a bunch of gifted students the Krelboynes had alot of emotional issues. Were they like that because their parents wouldn't let them do anything?
I am desperately rewatching before Hulu removes the show in a week :,( where else can I stream it? I love the show so much I am this 🤏 close to buying a DVD player and a box set.
anyways - do we have a definitive location for the Grotto? I always figured Arizona or Texas, but I'm watching the second episode of season 4 and I'm noticing a stylized Zia - the state symbol of New Mexico - on Francis's masseuse uniform. I guess with the episode about faking alien landings, New Mexico makes a lot of sense to me. I don't know my mountains well enough though to clock the actual location.
What are your thoughts? Google seems inconclusive...
Mine is S7E20 Cattle Court. The A plot is about Reese and the vegan girl he's trying to get with (insanely trippy dream sequence btw), The B plot is about Craig-Lois and Craig's "needing more" out of the their relationship.
The C plot though is about Dewey and Hal playing the game of Life. Dewey wins the first couple of games and Hal gets frustrated, seemingly because the game is giving a false impression at how easy it is to be successful and happy in real life. Hal makes an intricate home-made version of the game of Life, hemorrhoids and cancer included. After literal days of painful burdenous play Hal eventually crawls to the end and wins the game. Dewey takes a moment to reflect on the what his father had been trying to teach him with the game, and begins admit there was some real truth in those life lessons. Before he can finish though, Hal immediately begins taunting his son for losing the game, it turns out Hal was just a really sore loser all along.
It's hilarious and makes me laugh every time.
A few days ago, all the episodes had the expire notice, I check today there’s quite a few that don’t and quite a few that do. Did Hulu renew the license?
UPDATE: ALL THE EPISODES NO LONGER HAVE THE EXPIRE NOTICE.
