Frankie Muniz Says His Character in Malcolm in the Middle 'Sucked': 'Worst Character on the Show'

Frankie Muniz opened up to PEOPLE about the 'Malcolm in the Middle' revival, which was announced ahead of the sitcom's 25th anniversary. Muniz also joked that his titular character "sucked" and was the "worst" on the show when he watched it back.

The reboot will show Malcolm and his daughter as they are “drawn into the family’s chaos when Hal (Cranston) and Lois (Kaczmarek) demand his presence for their 40th wedding anniversary party,” according to a press release. " Malcolm in the Middle is a landmark sitcom that captured the essence of family life with humor, heart and relatability,” Ayo Davis, president of Disney Branded Television, said in a statement at the time of the announcement. “When Linwood Boomer suggested it might be time to bring everyone’s favorite dysfunctional family back for a bit of a reunion, we couldn’t think of a more iconic and influential series to revisit, along with a truly brilliant cast to reunite.”
