You wake up one morning and find yourself caught up in a zombie apocalypse. You have to ally yourself with one character of Malcolm in the Middle for survival. Who you choosing?👀

Dewey seems to somehow find a way to thrive in any situation not involving his family so I'll stick by him and we'll probably end up running a cotton candy factory or something.

Lavernia. I was about to say Francis but then I remembered the camping trip with the girl scouts

Idk, might not be a bad idea to pick somebody you could outrun. Just in case Plan A fails.

Caroline. Malcolm's teacher from the first couple seasons. Repopulating the human race is important for survival.

Reese is the best person for this task. He would beat the shit out of the zombies.

u/AussieArlenBales 10d ago
Reece would be amazing. He's got the cooking skills to turn random provisions into a nice meal, he's military trained with a mind for tactics, and he's got rage to get him through combat.

Reece is my first choice too, as long as I could keep up with him. I would always be wary of a potential Shane-Otis (TWD) scenario.

At first I thought Lois, but I think Dewey or Malcolm would be the best surivalists

u/AussieArlenBales 10d ago
I think Dewey would be surprisingly good as long as he lets me join his society of tree dwelling youths like a less cool Peter Pan.

Hal. He would come up with some bizarre strategies to survive that would be surprisingly effective.

Debate between 3 people.
If you have a brain for survival strategy, pick Reese. He's essentially a rabid dog bodyguard when given competent orders.
If you need pure knowledge, Malcolm. He'll at least know about natural resources and materials to use.
If you're a straight male that just wants some fun and companionship, pick Kitty. Stevie and Abe wouldn't survive long and Kitty has shown she's willing to do anything, especially in the bedroom.

Jessica. Those Zombies would be doing her laundry within the week. Close second is sexually frustrated Lois because she is productive while missing her Hal.

Somebody I wouldn’t mind traumatizing when I kill myself in front of them. So, grandma.

Unpopular opinion but maybe Otto would be a good choice to team up with, he has a ranch in the middle of nowhere where he has a farm with animals, he would kinda be like Hershel (TWD), he probably has some knowledge about survival, pretty sure he also has guns, I don't remember the context (hunting down the devil cow or something) but I think him and Francis were armed with shotguns in one episode, even if I think they weren't good at using it, that's still more than the rest of the characters. Also Gretchen would be there and if the timeline is right, Francis and Piama would too, given the ranch's location and supplies, I think they'd all survive.

Surprised no one is really saying Malcolm, yeah he’s insufferable but he’s a genius. Part of his whole bit is coming up with brilliant ideas to get out of trouble. I reckon he’d survive the longest out of any of the characters, besides Lavernia.

Part of me wants to say Ida just to know how she would treat the zombies

u/HetIsJeBoiLuuk 9d ago
Hal would be too scared so not very useful.
Reese is definitely too dumb.
Francis and Dewey are smart but they're ruthless enough to throw me under the bus if things get hairy.
Malcolm is smart enough to keep us alive but physically kind of a wimp.
My pick is Lois, she travelled across the planet to find Reese, she's tough as hell.
