Maddiizz & Lucky Maroon: What are your favorite movies, TV shows and music at the moment?

Erik: Hmm. I wish I had something a little less mainstream to offer, but I don’t watch many movies. I just saw “Juno,” and that was pretty top-notch! As far as TV shows go, I also only watch what is sent to me for Emmy voting. I got a big kick out of “Dexter,” which is really cool, though a touch morbid. Actually, while we’re talking dark stuff, Bryan Cranston’s (old friend/TV father) new show “Breaking Bad,” is really cool. For music, I love jazz, but I’ve been on a Latin kick lately. It’s so fun and high energy, you can’t help but want to bailar [to dance in Spanish] when you hear it!

Lucky Maroon: Who are your favorite actors? are you influenced by any of them? and how many have you met?

Erik: Since I was a kid, I’ve been a big Jim Carey fan. The guy knows comedy. I’m not so sure about serious actors, though. Jack Nicholson seems like the man. I had the great pleasure of meeting the former, but have never met Jack Nicholson.

Nathan Plunkett O’ Brien: Do you find it hard juggling school and your acting career?

Erik: It was getting pretty tough last year and the year before as high school was starting to heat up, but I really haven’t done an awful lot of acting in the past year. I’m going to say that’s probably for the better because I just switched schools and junior year is bordering ridiculously hard.

MalcolmFun: Do you plan to stay near Boston and maybe go to a university? Or do you foresee yourself taking the plunge and moving to Hollywood?

Erik: I’m definitely going to do some more school before I decide what I want to do regarding “the biz.” Boston definitely has some great universities (ahem, Harvard) but I’m just starting the college search.

great1: When you were younger (during season 1 or 2 of Malcolm) you said you would like to step behind the camera one day and direct, is this something you would still like to do?

Erik: I’m definitely still thinking that would be cool. The screen industry is an interesting one, and it would be awful neat to check things out from another perspective.

FunkySkunky420: You played the role of Dewey perfectly is there a little bit of Dewey in you?

Erik: Why, thanks! I think there’s a lot of Dewey in me. I often played Dewey as I would have done things myself, so I bet part of your idea of Dewey comes from my idea of him, which comes from me.. if that makes sense.

cadmiumgold: Do you miss Malcolm in the Middle? and if they did a reunion episode would you be up for it?

Erik: I miss it absolutely. When the show just ended, I would think about it all the time. I still get a little nostalgic when I talk to the guys, and would love to see the whole gang together again.

FunkySkunky420: What is your favorite experience working on the set of Malcolm in the Middle?

Erik: I think the best times were when the cameras weren’t rolling. Bike tag on the lot, golf-cart races.. good times all.

we_dye: You have starred in a variety of roles. Do you prefer comedy acting or drama?

Erik: Hmm. This is always tough. Comedy is always fun, but drama gives you this satisfaction that comes from having worked your way through something tricky. I hate to be indecisive, but I’m going to give you an “I like both” on this one.

DVF: How often do you visit Sweden?

Erik: We have a loose goal of once per year, but I think I’ve been there maybe ten times.

we_dye: If you could go back to any point in history, where would you go and why?

Erik: I don’t think I’ve been asked this before, so props on a creative question. I would love to visit Rome at the height of it’s glory. Now those guys knew how to do empires. Plus, I study Latin, and that would be the only chance for me to try the language out a little bit.

great1: Are you interested in video games, if so which systems do you own?

Erik: I got an Xbox 360 for Christmas last year I think, and my dorm mates and I play some video games. I made a resolution not to play so much, though, and I’m working on cutting down.

Agent23-007: Do you have any or want any tattoos?

Erik: Another new one! It might be nice to get myself a nice big eagle on my chest to show my patriotism. Haha, I kid. I might reconsider when they perfect they semi-permanent tattoo, but for now I’m good!

we_dye: Boxers or briefs?

Erik: Both and neither. Sometimes I go commando, but for the most part I use boxer-briefs.

great1: Once Malcolm ended you started to grow your hair, was this something you have wanted to do for awhile?

Erik: I never had any huge desire to grow my hair out during the show, but once it ended, I really wanted to use the new freedom.

we_dye: Mo is a film about the life of a real person and actual events. Do you therefore feel that you had a bigger responsibility when acting?

Erik: Definitely. Playing a real person made me take it seriously, but especially so because Mo wasn’t a comedy. The film dealt with something serious, and I wanted to do the kid justice.

great1: Do you ever visit fan sites or message boards/forums dedicated to yourself or MITM?

Erik: I actually haven’t been on any of these and really don’t spend any time on that kind of stuff. I might if I had the time, but it seems a little vain. Thanks for the [links to MITMVC].

Many thanks again to Erik for taking the time. And Erik if your reading this, we won’t think your vain if you want to chat to your fans in the FORUM!

Malcolm in the Middle was featured on the animated TV show Family Guy (which is often referred to as a ‘Dysfunctional Family’ like the Wilkersons). The episode titled I Take Thee, Quagmire aired March 12, 2006 (Season 4 Episode 21) and the Malcolm in the Middle scene was (in usual Family Guy style) unrelated to the rest of the episode and played as Brian (the Family Guy dog) is watching TV.

Bryan Cranston voiced the animated Hal, however Seth MacFarlane the series creator said in the DVD commentary for the episode that Jane Kaczmarek was asked to do the voice as she was the original actor in the series, however she refused. MacFarlane said that he gets a message that Kaczmarek wishes to portray that character as likeable, and does not wish to jeopardize that.

Jay Leno, who said he’d never watched Malcolm in the Middle (!!) talked about Bryan’s childhood and how he was wanted for murder for a short while in the 70’s. Bryan was very funny with Rachael Ray (which was filmed a little while ago when Bryan had facial hair) and made a great video montage of his work including lots of Malcolm in the Middle. Watch them both below.

Its been more than a month since we updated you on Frankie’s racing news. However a lot has been happening.

January 30, 2008 - Universal CityWalk in Hollywood, CA

Frankie Muniz and Carl Skerlong announced they had joined Pacific Coast Motorsports. That means Pacific Coast Motorsports expand their racing team with a two-car entry in the Cooper Tires Presents the Champ Car Atlantic Series Powered by Mazda.

PCM team director Tyler Tadevic made the announcement under the famous Hard Rock guitar at a media event at the Hard Rock Cafe. Attended by a large contingent of entertainment and sports media, Tadevic commented on the team’s desire to return to their racing roots.

“We’re really proud to be returning to the series where we won the 2004 championship, and we are looking forward to continuing our winning tradition”…”We feel we’ve got two exceptional young drivers on board. They’re both quick and very professional, we’ve got an exciting season ahead of us.”

Frankie Muniz will drive the #29 PCM/Mazda/Swift in his sophomore season of Atlantic competition.

“Joining PCM is a huge step forward for me in my racing career,”…”In the three tests I have already completed, I have learned so much and really developed my skills as a racing driver. Tim Lewis, my race engineer has a championship winning record behind him and we have gelled really well. I just can’t wait for the season to start in April at the Long Beach Grand Prix and I am thrilled to represent a professional racing team like Pacific Coast Motorsports.”

A nice surprise for Malcolm in the Middle fans was the fact that Bryan Cranston (Hal) joined Frankie at the announcement.

February 5 - 6, 2008 - Sebring Race - Frankie came in at #16

“It was a good day today, everyday with PCM I am learning so much, it’s awesome and great for my confidence inside the race car. I was a little disappointed this morning; I do not feel like I maximized the session. However, this afternoon was much better and we made a lot of progress. I had the best session I have ever had in terms of the timesheets and I am confident we can be much quicker in the morning, so that is great. Sebring is a great track for testing. It is bumpy like a street circuit, but it also has high-speed corners which are great confidence builders and challenging brake-zones that give you the opportunity to work on late-braking. I have been training everyday over the off-season and it has definitely paid off. It was 80 degrees today and it felt like it was nearly 100% humidity but I still had a lot of energy at the end of the day after 125 laps, I feel great!”

“This was a very important test for our team in terms of development. We tested combination after combination and have a lot of great information heading into the season because of it. I am learning so much from my engineer, Tim Lewis. I’ve never really learned how to develop a car, I’ve certainly never spent this much time developing set-up and it is really a great experience and I feel I have a much better fundamental understanding of what the car needs and what I need to maximize the track conditions. We did our best time of the test this afternoon when the track was actually slower; I ran the 12th quickest time at the point. The interesting thing also was that I was quicker on the old tires. It says a lot about the terrific product Cooper Tires provides us. I wish we had one more day because the car we ended up with this afternoon was awesome and I would love to try it out tomorrow morning when the track is at its best! I am really excited to get the season started!”

February 22, 2008 - Champ Car merges with Indy Racing League

For those who don’t follow the racing scene, Indy Racing League is a similar racing league to Champ Car both ‘open-wheel’ however its larger. The Indy Racing League has bought up the Champ Car League. However the Champ Car Atlantic series with continue to run for at least the next year. So Frankie’s plans for this year stay the same.

The paparazzi are getting a little close to home for Frankie Muniz (Malcolm). He was photographed going out for a drive in his Mercedes Benz. One of our very observant users MalcolmFun spotted that the T-Shirt Frankie is wearing is the same as one he wore on Malcolm in the Middle!

Ellen Page

On Sunday (24.02.08) morning, the alleged couple has been seen grabbing a bite in West Hollywood as the Academy Award-nominated actress prepped herself for the prestigious ceremony later that day. To National Enquirer, an insider remarked, “Frankie was making Ellen laugh non-stop all through their meal. He kept telling her not to be nervous, that no matter what, she hit it big just getting nominated. Then he’d crack a joke and she’d burst into laughter.” Further, the source revealed that the 21-year-old actress was “happy to have a good excuse to hang out in Los Angeles”.

If there is anything more to this we will keep you updated.
