Malcolm in the Middle

2000 42K members 7 seasons152 episodes

Malcolm is the little genius of the family. And when you see the intellectual level of the rest of the family, he is REALLY a genius. Hal is the slightly irresponsible father who always gets confused in everything he does. Lois is the bossy mother, who runs her family as best she can. Francis is the older brother. A rebel, he is sent to military camp to try to restore some sanity to the young man's life. But he makes you see all the colors. Reese is the daredevil, stupid, violent and desperate for his family.
Dewey is the youngest of the family, he discovers the world with a very endearing first degree. He is very naive and sees the world differently.
Their great enemy is Ida, Lois' mother. She is a poison on each of her visits. Craig is Lois' colleague. He is secretly in love with her.

Malcolm is one of the light bulbs, a group of smart students who are a bit of a misfit at school. There is Stevie, Malcolm's best friend. Handicapped and asthmatic, he is perhaps the nicest of Malcolm's entourage.
In their daily life, a little can make the whole family machine jam as well as the children's biggest misdeeds. Even if Malcolm is intelligent, he is still a child who wants to test everything.
Hal has Abe as a friend. Together they are like two kids.

Mischief, love affairs, money problems, everything is a pretext for the family unit to help each other.

Discover the Heartwarming Comedy of 'The Middle' Season 1

If you're on the lookout for a refreshing blend of comedy and heartfelt family dynamics, then look no further than the TV series "The Middle." This show offers a delightful glimpse into the lives of Frankie and Mike Heck, who navigate the challenges of raising their three children in Orson, Indiana. From parenting mishaps to career blunders, Season 1 introduces viewers to a world where love and laughter coexist amid chaos.

Frankie Heck, played brilliantly by Patricia Heaton, is anything but your typical soccer mom. As the third-best used car salesman at her local dealership, she embodies determination and resilience. Despite her not-so-glamorous job title, Frankie's unwavering commitment to her family shines through every episode. Paired with her husband Mike, portrayed by Neil Flynn—a man of few words whose witty zingers steal scenes—this couple's dynamic is both realistic and relatable.

One standout feature of "The Middle" is its cast of unique characters that perfectly encapsulate the trials and tribulations of adolescence. Axl, their semi-nudist teenage son with an affinity for rock music (hello Guns N' Roses!), captures the essence of teenage rebellion while providing comedic relief throughout the season. Meanwhile, Sue—the endearing yet awkward daughter—embodies perseverance as she faces setbacks like failing to make swim team or trying out for show choir without any success but with relentless enthusiasm.
