I don't know if anyone here watches "Malcolm in the Middle", but I've just started getting into the show, and I wondered how Malcolm's family and the Keaton family would get on if they ever met.
I'm not at all sure what the Keatons would make of them, to be honest. For the most part, Steven, Elyse, Alex, Mallory, Jennifer and Andy are a normal family, whereas Malcolm and the others...aren't. I think Steven and Elyse might become friendly with Hal, but I think they might be rather shocked at the way Lois deals with the kids (and also a little stunned at the kids' behaviour some of the time.)
I can also see the two geniuses of the families, Alex and Malcolm, each trying to prove they're smarter than each other. I think Jennifer and Andy would be friendly with Dewey (I'm thinking earlier seasons here, when Dewey was very young) and I could even see Mallory developing a crush on numbskull Reese!
I'd also feel very sorry for Skippy if he came along...just imagine what Reese would do to him!
