But why

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Because it was a top notch TV show, at least very much beloved in LATAM...

We do know only Disney could kill that excitement though.

I was not aware of a revival, but I'll be waiting patiently.

Looks like the original actors are in, except feom Dewey (Erik Per Sullivan quit actingwhen he turned 18), who gets a new actor. But at least the new actor looks a lot like him.

isnt frankie muniz kinda done with the franchise, i heard he made up medical conditions so people wont ask him about MIM.

Yeah, he claimed at one point to not remember much of it, but like you said, it was made up. I guess at the time he wanted people to see him as more than just Malcolm as he had other acting roles too.

But I guess things change enough in 20 years that he now is interested again.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

What other acting roles? He did Big Fat Liar and Agent Cody Banks over 20 years ago and then disappeared off the face of the planet, as far as I've seen.

Guess the Ridge Wallet sponsorships have officially dried up.
