Malcolm in the Middle Season 8 is now filming

The whole family's back, except they recasted Dewey with a look-alike. What are your hopes and expectations out of this return? Share your favorite parts and moments of the first seven seasons if you'd like too.

it's gonna be shit I'm calling it now

Why can't millennials just let things stay dead?

The revival was Bryan Cranston's idea.

except they recasted Dewey with a look-alike

guess he still resents getting diddled

It's going to be shit. Worse than the Roseanne reboot.

Can Frankie even remember his lines?

If a product has/had white males fans. The product needs to be denigrated until they leave.

You're a white male and there's a white male role model? We must deconstruct it. Picard, Neo, Luke, even fucking Jay and Silent Bob.

I have zero interest in watching this. Show revivals just make me feel old. The kid sitcom ones, especially. I can't imagine who watched that iCarly sequel series.

I reject all millennial sequel series and reboots and don't think I've been proven wrong once

Characters confirmed to return:

Malcolm

Lois

Hal

Reese

Dewey (Recast)

Francis

Piama

Jamie (Recast)

Stevie

Abe

New Characters:

Kelly (Sixth Child Lois was pregnant with in S7's finale)

Tristan (Malcolm's wife)

Leah (Malcolm's Daughter)

Other characters like Craig may return but aren't confirmed yet.

No Dewey

I guess he really did get molested then, didn't he?

Tristan (Malcolm's wife)

of course she's black, lel

Malcolm hit on black girls in the original series too.

It’s gonna be real bad. How is this even a question?

i'm just saying i would have liked to bet that he's going to have a wife and that she's black.
a daughter was obvious, too.

will reese be a gay vegetarian?
will hal be divorced and a loser?
is francis getting bossed around by all women?
is louis the ceo of her supermarket chain?
is dewey a genderfluid marxist musician?

One of the characters is confirmed nonbinary in the revival.

I think they're just barely going to be able to pull off the fake Dewey
Still looking younger than his older brothers like we remember might be slightly more palatable than having the real, as old as Malcom & Reece looking boomer

it's the youngest child. a new character.

another sign how bad the season will be.

No its Dewey because he always gave off fag vibes. I dont understand why they even alluded to another kid after Jamie. Lois and Hal are supposed to be in their 50s during the last few seasons.

Their new kid is a non-binary chick who's got good grades, so I'm betting on her overshadowing Malcolm somehow. So yeah what I'm saying is that it's going to be fucking shit.

season

It's only 4 episodes.

Tristan

wife

That's a man's name though.

It's not Dewey but the new kid. It's been confirmed.

So which one of Hal's friends will Lois end up with?

I've never watched the whole show, been meaning to for years. I need to know when is season 8 coming out so I can leave it for the last moment.

Cynthia shouldve been his wife
Disney owns malcom in the middle and literally anything greenlit over there has to have a strong black woman in a main role

Do a season then figure out the numbers aren't what they use to be and end it. Like that 70's show.

Piama

BASED

What a weird looking guy, he's older but still looks more Dewey than his replacement.

The finale was fucked up and ruined Lois' character. This is the chance to fix it.

This makes me feel worse about the project.

Why? Hal is very important to Cranston and wants to do more with him.

How many times until you learn your lesson old man? Picard was important to Patrick Stewart. Star Wars was important to Lucas. I don't want more Malcolm and the Middle made. I don't trust their motivations for making it. The show was already on the downslide creatively before it got cancelled. And now they are digging it up instead of letting things lie.

Erik Per Sullivan is Satoshi Nakamoto. He has no reason to come back to the show.

The show was already on the downslide creatively before it got cancelled

This gives them the opportunity to fix shit like

he thinks they are going to fix anything

if anything they are going to ruin a lot of things

There's absolutely no way they can make the finale any worse than it was.

I don't trust their motivations for making it.

As far as I can tell, they just want to revisit the series for a few episodes 20 years later and show us where the characters ended up. The show is still airing reruns to this day, so there's no reason not too, as long as most of the original cast and crew is involved. I don't know what's going on in your head to consider any of this malicious or underhanded.

Won't watch

Didn't ask.
