I just caught the 'Malcom In Middle' spot, man does it look hilarious! It's not making a simple cameo like it did in 'King Of The Hill', it's getting an entire episode dedicated to it with Hal no less! (My fave character from the show!) That episode is getting immoritilzed on my VHS tape for sure!

I just heard the song "Love Machine" on a comercial! It wasn't the DDR version though.

Also saw the DDR on Malcom, was pretty funny. But how do you guys see the episode 5 hours before the east coast sees it?

d00d, Malcolm in the Middle parodied it right down to the announcer.

malcolm in the middle on fox...yeah....

man i really hope people don't think DDR's as "homosexual" as these two guys portrayed it to be... purple shirts, tight black leather pants...

i did like the part where the arrows were going on inside the head when the mother asked him to help with "jamie," whoever that was.

either they think society's secure with ddr, or someone high up in fox's think tank has got something personal against it.

the funniest thing to me on malcolm in the middle is in the end when hal is fake listening to his wife and he sees arrows in his head. EVERYONE who plays ddr like he did sees arrows in his head.

Hey guys, did you see a black kid on the RIGHT side of the screen, pretending to play a game, and walking away? Well, that was my BEST FRIEND! Yep, he got to be on Malcolm in the middle, and was paid $115 for it, the lucky guy!

That was the worst thing i have ever saw ever!!! geez, if they were gonna do a ddr impresonation thing, they shoulda made it look at least a little challenging, and then ya! well, all i can say is, grrr!
O wait wait wait! the only thing i liked was when Hal was thinking in arrows, that is so true!

I think it would take too much time and effort to add in the little details for it to resemble an actual ddr game with the graphics and such. Plus I doubt the general audience knows what DDR is exactly, let alone 'Jump Jump Dance Party!' It was fun nonetheless. Here's hoping for more DDR appearances in the mainstream!

Holy crap they just mentioned DDR on Jeopordy kids edition. The topic was Abreviations and the question was...

"A video game that keeps your feet moving. DDR."

The kid in the middle answered, "What is Dance Dance Revolution."

Good job kid.
