I sometimes re watch episodes of this show at random and in almost every one he displays obvious Ti and Ne. I watched a couple episodes yesterday, the one where the family finds out the neighborhood throws a party when they are not there; and the one where Lois makes Malcolm and Reese find jobs. In the first one Malcolm discovers a family of neighbors are criminals by connecting the dots of some stuff that he accidentally helped steal from them. Clear inf Fe behavior from him in this one too, as he is too hurt after finding our his family is clearly disliked. And in the one Lois gets him a job he is surprised by his mom's completely different behavior at work, so he is like "She says I'm obsessed but I am not, I actually spent all night thinking about arguments, I even thought about answers for her possible answers". Also tert Si in display in the way he expects her mom to be the exact same at work as she is at home. And I think you can find clear examples of his functions at every episode. I also loved his argument with Dewey in the episode where Lois takes them to a baseball convention; Dewey has a "lucky shirt" and that pisses off Malcolm, their argument is like: Dewey: this is my lucky shirt Malcolm: There are no lucky shirts Dewey: Why does it bother you? Malcolm: Because believing in that makes no sense, it doesn't benefit society in any way and it is completely illogical. Dewey: maybe it just bothers you because being logical is all you have, and if the world is illogical you have nothing going for you. Man, sorry for the long post, I just love this show so much and as I said in a post below, as much as it can hurt sometimes, Malcolm is by far the character I've related the most in my entire life.

Biography

As the title suggests, Malcolm is initially the middle child of the three living at home; chronologically, he is Hal's and Lois' third son. His high intelligence, as well as feelings of not fitting in, and a large ego fueled by a cruel streak of snarkiness cause numerous problems for him over the course of the series.
