Review: I'm sure that the other reviewers have probably done a wonderful job reviewing this set.

I just wanted to add that I bought it as a Christmas gift for my family December 2003, not knowing how much they would love it. I e-mailed Fox shortly after my family watched one episode after the other...because I knew my family was addicted. I didn't get a response from Fox, but I hoped that my voice, along with other consumers, would get the ball rolling. When Christmas 2004 came and went, there was disappointment when season number two wasn't under the tree. I had to tell them that I did the best I could. It was sad.

Fox, if you're out there...make a family of three happy. Give us the second season!

Review: A 15 year old's review:
For all those looking to buy this hilarious show, I urge you to get it! It is definately worth it. I watched just one episode of this show and was immediately hooked. This show is incredibly funny and yet realistic. The actors do a great job and the writers of the show keep comming up with great episodes. The first season is so great but I can't wait for the rest to come out on DVD. Frankie Muniz and Erik Per Sullivan both do a great job keeping you on the edge of your seat and rolling in laughter.

Review: Other reviews have done a great job describing it, so here's another perspective on now good Malcolm in the Middle is:

We use Malcolm as a treat for guests. Because the episodes are less than half an hour, we're not locking them into a long commitment. Not to worry - after watching the pilot episode, they always beg for more. Even though as hosts we've seen Malcolm repeatedly - and usually I'm not much for repeat viewing - we still laugh like crazy, sharing our guests' delight. Only one couple was not amused, and we weren't surprised. (Thank God they're only once a year!)

Occasionally we watch the current episodes. I'm reluctant, because I hate to see the kids grow up. I know it's inevitable, but leaving that wonderful "first season" is kind of like leaving your own childhood - at the time you're glad you've finally grown up, but before long you're longing to return. Anyway, with that sentimental caveat, I just wanted to say, that the quality of the series has been maintained - it's still hilarious!

So I predict, that Malcolm in the Middle will take it's place, along with the Honeymooners and Andy Griffith and Mary Tyler Moore, in the pantheon of all-time television comedy classics. Yes, Folks, it's that good. And though the quality has indeed held up, this first season may be the best.
