""It's a really important thing to us. Three out of four of our kids are queer, and without making it a thing and without making an issue, I think it's really nice to have a character that [being nonbinary is] just a facet of their personality as opposed to the entire story.""
""Also, I mean, it's in there because I don't know what else to write except the stuff that's really happening around me.""
""I want fans of Malcolm in the Middle to feel like Kelly has been in the family like forever. They're a character that is, I think quite wise and down-to-earth.""
The Hulu limited series Malcolm in the Middle: Life's Still Unfair introduces a nonbinary character, Kelly, reflecting the personal experiences of the executive producers with their LGBTQ+ children. The revival occurs 20 years after the original sitcom, featuring Malcolm reconnecting with his family for a significant anniversary. The producers emphasize the importance of LGBTQ+ representation, aiming for the character's identity to be a natural part of their personality rather than a central issue. Additionally, Malcolm's friend Stevie is revealed to be gay and has started a family.
