Malcolm In The Middle and That 70s Show Cancelled
 

Malcolm & 70s show in last seasons
:cry: I loved Malcolm, watched it for 5 years, Bernie Mac and That 70s show were pretty good as well. :(

thank god. To be honest, those shows stopped being funny years ago.

'cept Bernie Mac. I still like that show, actually.

That 70's show stopped being funny after the second season. And when Grace and Kutcher left, that show wasnt worth anything.

Malcom stopped being funny after the first season.

Malcolm still has some funny plots, but I do agree that the current episodes are nowhere near as good as the earlier ones

I never really liked any of those shows. I personally think the only thing Malcom has going for it is the theme song. Unless they changed it...I don't know. I don't watch tv.

*wails* I read this at work earlier!!

To be honest, I quit watching Malcolm a few years ago.

But I ADORE that 70s show... and they FINALLY got rid of Kelso. Though I seriously didn't see it going past this year. I will miss it incredibly much. :(

Hell the fact that Kelso is gone makes the show 20 Times better.

Yeah, I hate Ashton Kutcher with a passion.

He almost ran me over once.

Man, what is it with our forum members and celebrities trying to run them over? First, Ben Affleck, now this?!

I can't say I'll mourn Malcolm in the Middle, That 70s Show or Bernie Mac. I always thought they were consistantly watchable (which is more than I can say about most other sitcoms) but I'd hardly ever seek them out.

'

Seriously? Daaaamn. I hate him too then.

There is a god.

Malcom stopped being relevent, not just funny, RELEVENT, two years ago

Celebrities hate geeks. It's true, It's true.

What do you mean, Relevant? How was Malcom Revelant? I'm just curious as I never really watched Malcom that consistently, maybe a episode or two a year, if that.

I will miss that 70's Show though. Topher Grace needs to come back for the season finale. Seriously.

Thank god. They should have been cancelled years ago.

Now to get the Simpsons axed...

Raph was right!:lol: post #47

But back to topic:: Man it's ABOUT time. I loved That 70's show but it's just stupid and confusing now. Malcom...his fate is the fate of al childhood actors:dead:

Arrested Delevopment was annoying....

True, but David Cross is the man. Mr. Show > all

David Cross owns all of our souls. as does Bob Odenkirk(sp?)

Someone once told me that I'm a card-carrying member of the intelligentsia and should venerate the lucid comical constructs of David Cross.

And I replied, "huh?"

Noooooooooo! 70'S show and Malcolm are 2 of the best shows I watch on fox.. This realy disappoints me. I already knew Arrested Development was getting cancelled. My dream of it getting canceled has come! Whoo!

It's dispointing that after al these years, shows are going off teh air! Well we can always relive them on dvd!

Malcom was an attempt to just try and see if live action comedies could adapt a style that would be both comedic and fast enough to garner the quick of the eye and the appreciation of the two to five second gag run of visual humour, combined with the kind of writing The Simpsons were renwoned for.

In short, cartoony, quick, and funny. It worked marveously, then they got a little stale, and shows like Scrubs, which owed a lot to Malcoms' example, just overtook it.

Hmmm, I guess I'm the only one so far who's dissappointed that Malcolm has been cancelled. I've never seen an episode that I didn't enjoy, so it's too bad there won't be any new ones. At least there's always reruns.

It sucks that great intelligent comedies like Arrested Development (possibly my favorite tv show next to the original turtles) Malcolm, Bernie Mac, and to a lesser extent That 70's show are being canned while mindless garbage like COPS or Jerry Springer get renewed every year.

Cops owns!

weak, all shows are being axed, horrificly only a matter of time until.... :cry:

In all fairness, this is'nt like shows like Firefly these shows have been around for years and have been large successes.

Pray for shows like Firefly and Angel that deserved renewal.

serenity the movie from firefly bombed in threatres. I guess theres no chance for firefly to get renewed.

If a show get cancelled, all we can do is buy the dvds to get sales or make an petition.

Whedon does'nt want to do another series, he wanted to spin off Serenity into a movie franchise, and despite the box office performance, Fox are still interested.

Fox is intereted?

Well they are the ones who cancelled Firefly. If they can bring back Family guy, they could do the same.

My friend has a friend who adores Firefly and the movie Serenity. When I was at his house I saw a book of Sernity on the floor.

here's my thoughts...
 

Arrested Developement was a bloody brilliant show that no body but TV critics watched. I'm P.O.'d they can't find room in their schedual for that, but mindless clap trap like "Nanny 911" and "Skating with celebrities" (both ripped off from ABC's claptrap) always have room.

However, I saw the writing on the wall for that 70's show and Malcom a while ago. Frankie Muniz is 20 years old, passing for a teenager. When that happens (90210 not withstanding) the show's pretty much done for. Not to mentioned they moved it to the same 7:00pm sunday deathslot that both King of the Hill and Futurama once had.

As for 70's show? Kelso left, Eric left... what's the point? I am not a fan of AShton myself, but I DID like the character he played. And Eric? Hell... they should have ended the show with him leaving. They have to be in like, 1981 by now. They pretty much put themselves in a bind when they made that God-awful that 80's Show, so they had to have 4 years of 1976-1980 run for almost 10 years.... like how MASH was 10 years longer than the Korean War! They tried some sappy milksop character to fill Eric's place, then had to kill him off when viewers found him annoying.... TWO EPISODES LATER!

It's sad to see those 2 go, but it couldn't happen soon enough... Besides, I stopped watching Malcom when Kennith Mars's character was written off.

Malcolm in the Middle revival being worked on, written by Bryan Cranston.

Why? Not sure if modern day humor will suit Malcom in the Middle.

Do you think the show is going to have jokes about how Hal looks like the guy from Breaking Bad?

I looked through this thread and found 19 year old posts from me saying Malcom ceased being relevant at the time of cancelation and suggesting Fox was still interested in more Firefly:lol:


Shows I know f*ck all sometimes.

I loved all seasons of the original run and compared to the Scrubs teaser this looks fantastic.

Oh, it seems like Erik Per Sullivan is not returning. What a shame. But it still looks good.

I rewatched the whole show earlier this year since I never saw every episode back in the day and I loved it. Its aged really, really well. It's also a great time capsule as to what being a teen in the early 2000's was like, Malcolm and his brothers have no cell phones, they're barely on the computer, no social media, they're just out there having a good time and getting into crazy mischief.

Bryan Cranston alone makes the whole show worth watching again, his performance is equally great to Breaking Bad. And Lois is fantastic and one of the great TV moms of all time. This is one of those shows you'd think wouldn't age well but it has, it's probably one of the best sitcoms of the early 2000's that stood the test of time.

Wow, is it really worth rewatching? I enjoyed the many episodes I got to watch but I was never a huge fan of the show and never watched it all. Would it really be worth watching?
I remember the last few seasons people just wanted the show to end but I wasn't watching it anymore so I didn't care.
How were the revival seasons of Arrested Development? I only ever saw the original 3 seasons and they were good but not as amazing as the internet used to tell me they were. I remember I bought all the dvds during black friday just based on internet hype telling me it was the greatest show ever. Never saw the revival season and unsure how the show has aged.

I actually never watched the show when it aired but randomly, maybe a year ago I put it on because I saw it on Hulu or somewhere... and I watched like 4 or 5 episodes back-to-back. It was very good, very funny.

I watched the whole show earlier this year as I said above, I really enjoyed it. If you were a teen in the early 2000's as well, this show is for you. I never watched it really when it originally aired but this show is a legit time capsule of what being a teenager in the early 2000's was actually like. So many storylines I related to Malcolm and his brothers.

Lois and Hal are also amazing as parents, they're basically the stars of the show as well.

When you think of TV moms in this type of family sitcom, 99 per cent are the blandest characters you could imagine. Then there's Kaczmarek's Lois who is just as memorable as Cranston's Hal which is quite a feat.

I watched Malcom in the Middle when it was airing. I don't think I've ever watched the final season, though. So I have no idea how it ended.

I really enjoyed the show back in the day. I'm not sure I'd enjoy it nearly as much as an adult, though. Better keep my fond memories of it. And I can't find time to rewatch or replay every single thing I grew up with.
