MALCOLM IN THE MIDDLE goes bowling
from Gimmicks Hosted by Glitterjaw Queer Podcast Collective
Malcolm in the Middle: "Bowling" Life's still unfair across two different timelines! It's one of the most famous episodes of the 00s working class family sitcom, a Sliding Doors-style look at the consequences of each parent taking the kids bowling. We talk about the masterful filmmaking, effects, and timing that made this experiment work, the show's surprisingly uncontroversial production history, and the different parenting styles of Jane Kaczmarek's Lois and Bryan Cranston's Hal.
