Is anyone else excited to see Malcolm and co's four episode return? I loved this series, which had heart as well as humour, and I always saw it as ahead of its time in the way it portrayed working class family life.

I really thought Malcolm in The Middle ended really well! Like it didn't need to continue i.e. thematically
His parents had everything planned out for him and was a criticism of the American lower class. Part love and part crab bucket mentality - Malcolm had to struggle so he can get perspective and then do better rather than being accepted into the elite and punching down on those he grew up with
I liked the ending too, and I genuinely have no idea what they will or should do with these four new episodes. But I'm just happy to see these characters again that I grew up with :)
Not gonna lie i watched this religously as a kid but nevet actually got to finish the series. So when i heard they were gonna do a mini series to catch up with older malcolm and his family i was definitely thrilled cause i was alwaya curious what happened to him, does he achieve his mothers plan or does he go rogue and do his own thing. Also what happens with his siblings?
It sounds like the perfect time for a rewatch! Those were my thoughts too; I'm assuming he's not the president, but who knows :D I'm also very keen to see whether Dewey and Reese have made anything of their musical and culinary talents.
I had no idea this was even happening, but I'll definitely watch it. Seeing Bryan Cranston be THAT doofus again after seeing him in Breaking Bad will be a delicious dose of cognitive dissonance
