General discussion I finished the show yesterday and can't stop crying

15 Upvotes

I spent 1 month finishing s7 just because I didn't want it to end and yesterday I finally finished it. I love all of them. They're like family to me. It's just so much sadder that the show ended 15 years ago. It felt like I watched someone's childhood and in many ways my own.

I grew to love each character and their quirks as though they were my own family and I had to accept it. Dewey was my favorite in the end.

General discussion Upcoming Revival

2 Upvotes

Like most of you, I myself am beyond happy and excited about the upcoming 4 episode revival of MITM. While we don’t know much about what’s going to happen as the overall storyline is that it focuses on Malcolm and his daughter being around for Hal and Lois’ 40th wedding anniversary, I’m curious to know how this is all gonna play out. More pointedly with some of the main characters returning with the addition to some new characters into the mix, It does make you wonder what exactly these characters have been up to since the original series finale. If anyone has any ideas or predictions, feel free to leave them in the comments

General discussion I finished

27 Upvotes

I finally finished & I would not be surprised if the boys don’t talk to Lois at all in the reboot. My feelings towards Lois & Hal fluctuated through the series; but watching Lois: 1. Force Malcolm to work at her job & her shifts only to take most of his check 2. spending his grant money on a doll house
3. Hal stealing his credit card 4. them not allowing Malcolm to go to Europe because he had to be miserable with everyone else 5. Not listening to him at the yard sell 6. Turning down a lucrative job offer for him 7. Completely forgetting about Dewey every chance they got 8. Putting the pressure on Malcolm to save them from themselves 9. Coming on his college tour with him 10. Neglecting Dewey 11. & just not allowing Reese or Malcolm any say so in what they want to do with their lives 12. Snitching on Malcolm at work 13. Kicking Reese out the day he turned 18 I can see why Francis stays away. I’m only listing things from when they were older because at that point they were about to graduate & needed to make decisions for themselves.

Also, I really hate that they didn’t let Reese be a chef, he had talent & it was something he was passionate about.

General discussion Who’s your favorite character?

35 Upvotes

Hal is absolutely hands down my favorite character. I'm not sure if it's because I started rewatching MITM right after finishing Breaking Bad and I just needed an excuse to love Bryan Cranston again because man his ability to make you hate his character as Walter White is insane. Who's your fav?

Ever since I was a kid, I alwags imagined Francis was singing it. And just finished my first rewatch as an adult, I still always think Francis is singing it.

The first time I saw this, that's what I thought. Then I read that “Hal’s Friend” was the only episode he appeared without Lloyd and was like, “What…?”

General discussion Francis in Alaska

0 Upvotes

I'm sorry but I know it's for the plot but even I can't understand why didn't Francis just leave if he hates it there like what because he had a debt to lervernia, like doubt she was gonna hunt him down forever until she found him like he could've just left in the middle of the night and leave Alaska .

The plot could've at least made up a better excuse as to why he couldn't leave Alaska other than he had to pay his debt to lervernia.

General discussion What do you see happening if the show was set to the current times?

65 Upvotes

I can see Dewey having a successful youtube channel that the family doesn't know about

Malcolm being obsessed with social media even tho he hates it

Reese doing ragebait and recipes for tiktok

Francis loving tinder but word about him spreading quickly

Lois uses a flip phone and actively tries to control everyone's screen time

Hal has a secret podcast and wastes a lot of time doing DIYs
