Frankie Muniz, who famously portrayed Malcolm Wilkerson in the hit sitcom Malcolm in the Middle, has recently said that his character was the worst on the show and that he “sucked.” While these comments are abrupt, I agree, and it’s refreshing to see an actor reflect on their childhood work so openly. Malcolm had a lot of potential, but he got progressively worse, especially in the later seasons, and his attitude stunk in general. However, perhaps the upcoming revival will redeem Malcolm.
