Remember that scene when the store workers revolt? Here is an edit with the USSR anthem.

I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:

Thats Justin Berfield? I dont even recognize Reese at all.

[–] dead@hexbear.net 18 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They used the same actor for Reese but a different actor for Dewey.

Doesn't one of the actors have serious memory issues? Like, he does not remember being in the show at all?

Also, they didn't even get TMBG to do the theme, boooo

[–] MarxusMaximus@hexbear.net 13 points 1 month ago

Frankie Muniz has said those reports were bullshit. He had a series of concussions and some mild memory issues and a joke about him not remembering 2001 was taken seriously.

Something something signs of recession when they reboot franchises. This and Scrubs bode for ill times Methinks

[–] AtmosphericRiversCuomo@hexbear.net 6 points 1 month ago (2 children)

The first one wasn't even good. What's next a reboot of the Goldbergs?

[–] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 21 points 1 month ago (2 children)

jesse-wtf

that show was one of the very few to actually show a working class family, and it's frequently very funny. if you don't like it, do you like any sitcom?

[–] Self_Sealing_Stem_Bolt@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Yeah, i dislike the reboot cause MITM is one of my favs. Gary Anthony Williams will always be Stevie's dad to me lol

[–] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

hey maybe it won't be terrible copium

[–] AtmosphericRiversCuomo@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago (1 children)

People don't like shows like that because of the class composition of the characters. They like shit that makes them laugh.

Arrested Development clowned on out of touch rich people, but that's secondary to it just being funny as hell.

MITM at best made people nose laugh. It had some great performances, but they were shoved into a bland package.

[–] robot_dog_with_gun@hexbear.net 3 points 1 month ago

the class composition made a bunch of things more relatable and therefore funnier unlike the multi-millionaire apartments on Friends or whatever

Malcolm in the Middle wasn't even good.

[–] TreadOnMe@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

No. This is a bad idea. Part of the fun of the whole thing is that they are dysfunctional and very poor family of geniuses (minus Hal, who I guess is a genius in bed?) in a society that doesn't actually reward genius, especially if you are working class. Not that the characters don't also have serious personal flaws.

The idea of them maturing into adults was literally already explored with the character of Francis. Why do we need to rehash it with the rest of them? The whole point was that they will probably fuck up a lot but end up ok.

Like if Reese isn't a line cook after working his way up to head chef only to completely bankrupt himself because while he is great with food he sucks at budgeting, I will not watch this.

Malcolm should be divorced at least once, if not twice.

Ironically, the only actually successful one should be Dewey, because he was always the moderately sane one of the family.

[–] chgxvjh@hexbear.net 5 points 1 month ago

Is this why YouTube shorts was full of Malcolm clips lately? Tbf I watched them.

[–] OptimusSubprime@hexbear.net 1 points 1 month ago

Wait, where is Jaime? Hal and Lois had a fifth kid.
