This episode is an instant Classic, one of the best of the show, and because of it, one of the best in history of comedy TV.

In a typical Malcolm way, the family are in the same environment, but all living different experience, it is hilarious from A to Z.

I don't understand some negative reviews talking about the negative moral values the show give, and that's their reasons to give a bad ratings( like the other review on this episode) but guys, it's the point of the damn show ! This family is crazy ! Just like the Simpsons are. And just like the Simpsons, it's the reason why it's hilarious. Yes Lois is a terrible mom, yes Hal is a terrible dad, you don't rate a tv show by the moral values of it's characters, in this case Breaking bad is a 3/10, the sopranos is a 3/10 ?

It's illogical. You rate a show if it's funny or not.

In a pure Harlan Coben style, there is so many questions after the first episode A bit too complicated at first, like the other critics said, but after that it became more clear. Still very weird especially with the mom of the initial victim. But that's the charmed.

Only critic I have now, is the main actor, I don't really like him, too flat, no expression on his face even when he faces huge stress. Of course there might be an explanation for that, maybe he is involved in something and was not that much surprised but what happened in episode 1. We'll see. I just hope there is, because there was absolutely no reaction on his face.

It felt so good to finally see a change of pace, a change of writing, finally an episode that does not rely on the same joke all over again.

Don't get me wrong it was always fine, Season 2 was mostly okay. But now that is the opportunity to do something very good. It felt good not to see Tahani and joke about her high standard , felt good not to see Jason and his stupidness, and good not to see chidi the nerd, I like them, but not all the time in every minute of every episodes. Here it was about Eleonor, the main character, finally !

More time to focus on one character, instead of having all 6 main characters like always. I'm looking forward to season 3 and to see Tahani, Jason and chidi dealing with their new life, this test.
