Getting the part, and getting in trouble
BBC Host: Hello, and welcome to tonight�s live chat with Christopher Kennedy Masterson. Christopher is ready to start answering your questions. Here�s the first question:
Josh: How did you get the part on Malcolm?
Christopher Masterson: It was a normal process, just like most other auditions. I went in and read for the producers and unlike other auditions, I didn't have to come back again and again. It only took one time which was nice.
Ryan Jerram: Would you like Malcolm, Reese and Dewey as your real brothers?
Christopher Masterson: Yeah, I think they'd be good as brothers, only from time to time they'd become too much of a handful. Their characters are all genuine and sweet.
Jon Baker: How did it feel to have a Mother from hell?
Christopher Masterson: For me it's no problem because she's not really my mother but I imagine if she was, that it would make life a nightmare. Nobody likes dealing with Lois.
Monkey: You are always getting into trouble in the show. What is the most trouble you have got into in real life, and what did you do?
Christopher Masterson: When I was 11, I burned a field down by mistake. It was an empty field, probably about 10 acres in size. Me and my friend were lighting firecrackers and we ended up burning down the entire field. We got found out and I think I was grounded for about three months.
