Where are they now? (Show: Malcolm in the Middle)


Welcome to the 4th installment of my Where are they now? series. Sorry I haven't been keeping up with this series. To be honest I kind of forgot about it. But don't worry, it's back. For this post we are going to be talking about the show Malcolm in the Middle.


"Malcolm in the Middle is an American television sitcom created by Linwood Boomer for the Fox Broadcasting Company. The series was first broadcast on January 9, 2000, and ended its six-year run on May 14, 2006, after seven seasons and 151 episodes. The series follows a family of six, and later seven, and stars Frankie Muniz in the lead role of Malcolm, a somewhat normal boy who tests at genius level. While he enjoys his intelligence, he despises having to take classes for gifted children, who are mocked by the other students who call them "Krelboynes". Jane Kaczmarek is Malcolm's overbearing, authoritarian mother, Lois, and Bryan Cranston plays his immature but loving father, Hal. Christopher Kennedy Masterson plays eldest brother Francis, a former rebel who, in earlier episodes, was in military school, but eventually marries and settles into a steady job. Justin Berfield is Malcolm's dimwitted older brother Reese, a cruel bully who tortures Malcolm at home, even while he defends him at school. Younger brother Dewey, bitter about his ruined childhood, smart, and musically talented, is portrayed by Erik Per Sullivan. At first, the show's focus was on Malcolm, but as the series progressed, it began to explore all six members of the family." (source)





Here's what the cast of Malcolm in the Middle has been up to since the show ended in 2006...

Frankie Muniz (Malcolm)

Since the show ended in 2006 Frankie Muniz was keeping himself busy appearing in things like "Stay Alive (2006), Criminal Minds (2007) among many other things. His latest work was in 2017 where he was a contestant on ABC's Dancing with the Stars.  He also appeared in Misfit Garage in 2017.
If you've watched the show Dancing with the Stars you'll know that they do a most memorable year part then they do some sort of dance. During Dancing with the stars Frankie Muniz opened up about his health.

"Most people think that my most memorable year would be the year "Malcolm in the Middle" started because it allowed me to live all these dreams of mine," Muiz said. "I've gotten to really do anything I've wanted to do, but the truth is, I don't remember much [of that]... It almost feels like it wasn't me."

Over the past five years, Muniz has suffered from mini strokes, or transient ischemic attacks, which cut off blood supply to the brain. He believes these, along with an estimated nine concussions, have contributed to severe memory loss surrounding his childhood acting days." (source)
