The TV Thread

I remember Bryan C being so, so funny as Hal. You sort of got glimpses of it in BB, but he’s really great at physical comedy.

Also, the first 25 secs of this are pretty apt

Is it on any streaming service?

There have been a few little bits that have reminded me of BB. Having their house covered in a bug tent is one i can think of now.

I don’t think so. I was hoping it would turn up on Netflix (as that’s the one I use) but I got fed up with waiting and bought it.

Also. I don’t know where to download evaluation copies of telly / music these days.

Weirdly I think Aaron Paul auditioned for the role of the older son in Malcolm, years before getting BB.

One of the best sitcoms…of all time?

Best.

All time.

Malcolm…
… in the Middle.

Top 20 without a doubt.

There’s been a LOT of sitcoms

Cool. That was worth a Google… and (according to IMDB) your story checks out.

He’s also appeared in TV commercials for both Coca-Cola and Pepsi-Cola.

Which is a bit two faced.

I like malcolm in the middle. It passed the time 20 years ago. I don’t think it’s shit.

‘Best sitcom of all time’ though. Lol.

Fair.

What is though. Seinfeld? Taxi? Friends? It’s always Sunny? US office? Parks and Rec?

Dunno. All I know is MITM doesn’t even need to enter the debate. It’s not the worst…its not the best.

It’s sort of in 3rd Rock From The Sun territory. Nice enough to have on channel 4 whilst your getting ready for work.

It’s definitely no ‘It Ain’t Half Hot Mum’

Hang time… ‘Hanging togetherrrr putting it on theeee line.’

That was sitcom of sorts. It makes it one of the best of all time I guess.

Moesha.

My wife and kids. Watched a lot of that for some reason.

King of Queens. Absolute dogshit but watched it every day because it was on channel 4 in the morning before everybody loves Raymond… Which is also dogshit. But one of the best of all time on account of its existence.

Raymond is the absolute worst

However, actual older Raymond seems quite good in stuff outside of that sitcom

Partridge.
