An official synopsis for the revival reads: \"The original 'Malcolm in the Middle' saw young genius Malcolm trying to navigate life with his quirky, often difficult family. In these brand-new episodes, Malcolm and his daughter are drawn into the family's chaos when Hal and Lois demand his presence for their 40th wedding anniversary party.\"

\"Malcolm in the Middle\" aired from 2000 to 2006 and earned a slew of awards during its seven-season run, including a Peabody, seven Emmys and a Grammy.

All 151 episodes of \"Malcolm in the Middle\" are now streaming on Hulu.

Disney is the parent company of Hulu, ABC News and \"Good Morning America.\"
