Question for yee all?

rude awakening

this is buggin us all here.
OK. What TV show replaced Malcolm in the middle on Sky 1 years back.
It was a $**t MITM rip off, and as far as we remember the name of the program was also the name of the main character?

Nay, not the middle,
it was along the same lines of MITM, there was an 11/12 year old guy who also spoke to the camera, he was something Bean (Not mr bean)

I quite liked Oliver Beene, it was set in the 60s wasn't it?

It wasnt a patch on Malcolm though, that show was genius.

I'll always remember when it started, Malcolm in the Middle was being advertised as a live action simpsons. How right they were when years later, none of the characters seemed to have aged.

I wouldn't really say aged as such. He was a kid and now he's an adult. He has grown up.

Oh my GOD. I've become so acclimatised to him being a child forever that I cannot accept this. It's like one of those dodgy "this is what the child will look look like in 10 years" things.
Edit: he's only two years younger than me!

Okay, maybe they still looked the same age when the show ended. And looks like they ended it just in time. I suppose it's the same as seeing Jonathan Lipnicki, Mara Wilson or Haley Joel Osement now.

Such a shame that Hal went off the rails and started cooking meth though.

And it looks like he's finally found out who his real father is:
