Second time buying

Unfortunately this purchase was shipped to an old address and I have not received it.
This purchase was meant to replace for a DVD that got lost a long the way. So I am totally familiar with the product and liked it enough that I wanted to replace my lost copy.Lire l'avis complet...

Off-beat & dysfunctional, but addictive family FUN!

This DVD is for the first season of the television comedy called "Malcolm in the Middle". It is a 7-time Emmy winning, 7-time Golden Globe nominated and 1-time Grammy winning American sitcom that ran for 7 seasons between the years 2000 and 2006.

At the heart, it is a show about a family of a mother, father and 4 sons, with the main character (Malcolm) being the middle child...hence the show's title.

In this series, Father doesn't know best...Dad (Hal) is actually a quirky push-over, while Mom (Lois) is the head of the family and a force to be reckoned with. But I guess she'd have to be tough with 4 boys...the oldest (Francis) being sent off to military school and the 3 youngest (Reese, Malcolm and Dewey) in elementary school and having a knack for getting into trouble.

I made the mistake of not watching this show when it first came out. I thought it would be like SO many other family sit-coms...bland and boring. Boy...was I wrong! This series is punchy and amusing and fast paced. I laughed and was hooked after the first episode I watched, and I think you may be too.

It is a 'family-safe' show, in so much that there is no violence or bad language...more implied harm than actual. Very popular with tweens, teens and young adults, even middle age and older adults will get a kick out of these family antics.

I like how the show was filmed with NO laugh track or studio audience! Also, I enjoyed how Malcolm could "break the fourth wall" (a little drama term there) and speak directly to the audience, in asides. Also, many guest stars have appeared in the show, which are fun to watch for. And the opening title has great music and a funny, seemingly detached & wild collage of scenes. I also like the relativel ambiguity of not really knowing where the family is geographically located (like in the Simpsons) and not really even knowing the family's last name.

One of the best things about this DVD set is the bonuses! Commentaries, bloopers & out-takes all add to the enjoyment and in my opinion, really make the set go from average to exceptional. Of course it is also wonderful to have all the episodes in their proper viewing order, crystal clear sound and picture and NO commercials.

It really is a funny show with great characters. This DVD set is very enjoyable and highly recommended. I hope you found this review helpful, and if so, please click 'YES' (it was helpful) Thanks!Lire l'avis complet...

The funniest show growing up this is the start to the nostalgic rewatching of a fantastic show that captures the era it was filmed during perfectly :) such great memories of before the 2010 decade

Best. Show. Ever.

This is possibly the funniest sitcom ever made. Bryan Cranston is a living legend. It brings us back to simpler times when life was about family, and suffering together.

Malcolm in the Middle. Great value!

I bought this for my husband, and he loves it...thanks!

The best TV comedy since Married with Children

I did not think I was going to like this TV show that has been in reruns. I definitely would watch it if it were back on. The first show I watched bits of while working in the house and catching pieces of it in and out the room. The second time I watched completely through. It is so hilarious that I wanted to see all the shows I had missed. How in the world do they get such talented convincing young actors to play their parts? Jane Kaczmarek playing the mom certainly well deserved her award. Both she and Bryan Cranston were a perfect match for facial expressions and interaction. I will also buy the 2nd season when it goes on sale. I bidded on EBay because I knew I could get it cheaper than buying from a store. Now that I have bought the DVD, my 15-year-old granddaughter, who was shocked when she found out mammaw has it, now wants to view it when I am through.Lire l'avis complet...

So long series, hello dvd's.

If you're a Malcolm fan you already have this in your collection. If you don't have this Season 1 DVD then i suggest you get it before it's oop or hard to find. I'm not sure why only Season 1 is out but i'm hoping for others to follow since Malcolm went off the air in 2006.

This slapstick, off-beat comedy will have you laughing and feeling sorry at the same time. This is one big disfunctional family who never seems to find time to clean the yard (except one special occasion). You will love this DVD if you are into having a laugh and watching insane people try to make it in the real world. It's worth every penny to me and i will miss the new episodes!Lire l'avis complet...
