It's hard to believe that Malcolm In The Middle first premiered on Fox ten years ago in 2000. Since then, it seems like many shows on TV have been influenced in some form by Malcolm. It's a great show for tweens and up, but it's an edgy family sitcom with some of the quirkiest characters ever created. Some episodes have inappropriate sexual content and language, but it can be overlooked through the show's sharp writing and great acting. I have to agree with other reviewers that the early seasons were the best. Malcolm was always a cartoony family sitcom with goofy situations, but later seasons of the show practically turn it into a satire with an overload of awkward humor and over-the-top wackiness that imitates The Office and Family Guy. This change in tone made its audience abandon the show and helped lead to its cancellation in 2006. Since the complete series has not been released on DVD, you can only watch Malcolm on Nick@Nite in primetime Sunday-Thursday starting at 8/7c (Monday at 8:30/7:30c) and FX in daytime.
