I think that's demonstrated, when was it, second or third season? "I
would sell malcolm down the river in a heartbeat". I dont know whether
its loathe so much, or just that she knows he's fine on his own and
doesn't need so much attention. But consequently, Malcolms losing the
way I think.

Not sure what wrote him up means. Is that a good thing or a bad thing.

No worries. I download them off the internet. And I watch them on TV.
And I record them on VCR, soon I'll be recording them to DVD, and then
I'll be buying the DVD's once they're released (just to prove Im not
doing anything wrong).
