Frankie Muniz Apparently Can't Remember Anything From Malcolm In The Middle Due To His 9 Concussions And Mini Strokes Over The Years
NY Daily News- Frankie Muniz’s memory loss has robbed him of much of his childhood.
The child actor revealed on “Dancing with the Stars” Monday night that he’s suffered nine concussions and several “mini-strokes” that he thinks have affected his long-term memory.
“It makes me a little sad,” he said on the show. “Things pop back into my mind (that) I should have remembered.”
“My most memorable year is 2017, because I learned to live in the present,” he said.
“I’m happy with my acting career, I’m happy with the decision I made to drive race cars and to focus on music. Even if I don’t remember it all, I’m happy.”
Wait what? Frankie Muniz has had 9 concussions and a series of mini strokes since we last saw him on Malcolm In The Middle? Agent Cody Banks himself?! Nooooooooooo. I don’t like that at all. I feel like that’s kind of a bomb to drop on Dancing with the Stars without a real explanation. Are we to assume that these concussions/strokes are a result of his race car driving days? Or maybe from drumming in a rock band, where he used his head instead of drumsticks? I know those rock concert speakers are loud, but I didn’t think they were concussion-inducing. Either way, I need answers because Malcolm in the Middle was an integral part of my childhood. The dude made it cool to be a nerd. His older brother was named Francis, which helped quell the fires behind the “Francis is a girls’ name!” movement at my school. Lois and Hank were hysterical, and Dewey and Reese rounded out a stellar family cast. And that intro song was the anthem of angsty preteens across the nation:
Apparently, Frankie and his girlfriend are Notebooking themselves already. They keep a diary every day to help him remember what’s happening. I sure hope Frankie has a lawyer handy to take a look at those notes each day. Just in case there are any fishy passages…
“Hi Diary! Today, my girlfriend reminded me that last week, I promised to bequeath my entire estate to her once I turn 35. Can you believe it?! I’m the best boyfriend ever.”
And that estate is no joke. @iHeartMtnDEW knows:
