that's every episode

Yes user, that is the joke. You've figured it all out.

Name a bad episode

Pro-tip: You literally can't

>women
>critically evaluating anything

you now realise that Lois just wanted the best for her kids and that she was totally reasonable

Lois is the hero of the series. Someone that plays the necessary villain

oh yeah because being a complete cunt sure helped francis turn out ok and stopped him making stupid decisions in his early adulthood

The Fly

Francis could have been great but he hates authority, just look at how he behaved in Military School

>when lois admits all she wants is sex

Well, he turned ok. in the end he is married and has a job. without her mom he would be same as his junkie friends at town.

what episode is that at the bottom? is that episode 60?

Are the bottom ones the clipshow episodes?

Anything involving Malcolm's "secret girlfriend"

My mother was like this.
I turned out pretty bad because I never had the benefit of brothers.

you probably deserved it

imdb.com/title/tt0640290/?ref_=tt_ep_nx

Looks to be the best ep

Billboard

>muh women rights

Half the brilliance of this show is being a child and identifying with all of the kids' antic and their battles with their mom and then becoming an adult and realizing that Hal an Lois are based as fuck and are legit 10/10 parents.

Hal is pretty shitty parent desu

This. He is weak and lets the kids walk all over him. His kids give him no respect

Honestly I've purged 80% of the episode from my memory, years ago it used to get rerun on TV all the time and I probably saw it 10 times while bored watcing tv. The only episode I skipped when I rewatched it a few years ago

His hatred of authority in military school made him Spengler's favourite. He could've gone places if Eric didn't poison his mind.

m-m-mommy...

The one where Malcolm cripples the crazy hermit neighbor lady and has to take care of her is an episode I never really liked.

I was never a huge fan of this show, and I was even the correct demographic when it came out. Her character was a big reason why I was turned off from the show.

That is a good episode though. The scene where Malcolm and his friends pass Lois in the car in slow-motion is amazing.

So basically, my mother.

Yep, 60 and 80 are both clip shows

>Malcolm is a genius
>Reese is a huge talent at cooking
>Dewey is a musicial genius
I never liked this

It definitely reeks of later season, creatively bankrupt, self-mythologizing sitcom fuckery

I am pretty sure he has some multiple personality disorder or maybe a compulsive liar. His personality changes to fit the narrative. In one episode he says that he is the only successful male from his family because of Lois, all his male relatives became loners that worked at oil rigs and similar. In another episode we meet his family and they are millionaires, in one of the first episodes they go to a wedding for his side of the relatives and they come up with the "Lois common denominator" offscreen.

In one episode Hal is shown to have been a real delinquent that Lois had to tame and that personality surfaces whenever she goes away for some time, then in other episodes he is a real wuss that is afraid of clowns and stuff and in other episodes an alpha male.

Francis is also a very charismatic person, has great influence on pretty much anyone that isn't Lois, even though he causes a trainwreck everywhere he goes, he somehow makes it out with little consequence and makes his enemies hate him less than they should.

pretty sure that is not Hal being crazy but writers writing whatever episode needs.

All first generation American Slav moms are Lois to some degree or another.

>tfw your mom glues her face into your porno mags

You dont say.
But this writing still defines him

yes, exactly. typical mother

they only know how to react in my experience. if they need to know how to think about something and make a judgement, they call a man so they can absolve themselves of any responsibility

>if they need to know how to think about something and make a judgement, they call a man so they can absolve themselves of any responsibility
and men always love to serve women. Women have the easiest lives

Being able to get people to do things for you for free because they're think they'll get puss puss is pretty gr8 desu. I haven't had to lift heavy boxes in years and part of my job is lifting heavy boxes

I'd lift your heavy box, if you know what I mean.

>Its a Lois puts her face on your porn mags and you still fap to it episode

The one where Hal has a feud with a CGI bee

Just terrible

Actually the episodes about her family made her a much more interesting character. Her terrible family life and horrific slav mom made her seem really nice by comparison.

There is some great stuff in that episode. I don't think it's bad. Especially the end, when Hal crashes the car into a wall to kill the bee is hilarious.

> His 911 call after his failed suicide is the most depressing shit ever

@OneGood_Trailer

I love that episode, the way the boys used the billboard they were vandalizing as a cover so they wouldn't get the punished was hilarious and the B plot with Hal faking his death years ago so he wouldn't have to pay back $40 was great.

>he believes in authority

Whose?

>Breaking in the Middle
>Malcolm in the Bad

>the story arc with spengler after military school
Feels bad man.

>force your kid to turn down a 6 figure job so he can become president
>reasonable

>his actor shot himself
>he screwed up and didn't die until 2 years later

faggot

3 years senpai.

you can only blame your parents for your failures for so long, user.

KEK XD THE GOOFY DAD FROM MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE IS THE DANGER LOL XD

All Clipshow episodes

>Francis's older brother is Hyde

Well, yeah. I'd rather be president than work in some tech firm.

>That arc where Francis ran away to Wisconson, time traveled to the 70s and became Hyde

dude's a manlet he could never be president

liveleak.com/view?i=dbe_1329944541&comments=1

Spangler's 911 call.

was there a reason he couldn't work at the tech company for x amount of years and then work on becoming a president?

because then he wouldn't have suffered enough

Nonsense. She completely fucked those kids up.

oh shit I always thought Spangler was Michael Ironside. this is depressing.

The one where they got taken to a psychologist was good, by clipshow standards at least.

>Law enforcement officials confirm they were dispatched to von Bargen's Cincinnati apartment complex a short time later, and when they arrived, you can hear them on the 911 tape, yelling at Daniel to keep his hands where they could see them.

Christ why are American cops such dicks to the suicidal? I've heard at least two stories of people calling the police after trying to kill themselves only for an officer to shoot them. It doesn't even sound like they sent an ambulance with them.

No, you're just a faggot with no friends.

Reese cooking was actually relatively early on.

>>when lois admits all she wants is sex
what episode is that captain ?
