Malcolm in the Middle: Season 4

2002Runtime:0 minutes
Skewering the surface serenity of suburban family life, this Emmy-winning sitcom returns for another unapologetically irreverent season, following the ups and (more frequent) downs of put-upon teen prodigy Malcolm (Frankie Muniz). In Season 4, while Hal and Lois prepare for the arrival of the latest addition to the family, Reese (Justin Berfield) throws a blowout party, and Malcolm devises a plot to be sent away to military school.
