Nick at Nite Buys Cable Run of ‘Malcolm in the Middle’

Jun 7, 2009  •  Post A Comment

Nick at Nite has acquired the cable syndication run of "Malcolm in the Middle," Daily Variety reports.

The comedy-focused cable network has bought rights to all 151 episodes of the single-camera half-hour, which ran on Fox from 2000 until 2006. It will air Sunday through Thursday nights at 8, starting July 5.

Once home to mainstream, popular multicamera sitcoms, Nick at Nite has been evolving its brand to include quirkier, less commercial product recently.

For example, the little-seen UPN/CW show "Everybody Hates Chris" is scheduled to begin airing on the cable network in September. The network also airs "The George Lopez Show," which, after a solid start, fizzled during its ABC run.
