I know there's a thread about "The Middle" so I didn't really make this thread to talk about my opinions on "The Middle", but I was reading several reviews on it, and I didn't understand one.
"If "The Middle" reminds me a little of Fox's long-running comedy "Malcolm in the Middle," it probably has less to do with the title than with Atticus Shaffer, the actor playing the Hecks' oddball youngest child, Brick." (The 16th paragraph on http://www.philly.com/philly/entertainment/television/20090930_Ellen_Gray_.html) Does anyone understand what the author of the review is trying to say in the paragraph? I get the part where "The Middle" is sort of like MITM, after than I don't really know what they're saying. (Getting a bit sidetracked, but really dislike how they compare Brick to Dewey in a lot of the reviews...)
