But Spacey has played menacing roles and we kind of already see him as such, so the crossover to the dark side would not have been as compelling or as astonishing

    Of all actors, Cranston is the most like a chameleon. Can’t tell you how many movies of his I’ve seen and never recognized it was him until much later. Really shows how well he turns into the characters he plays.

    He is one of the best actors of all time, and his understanding of human nature is what makes him truly a genius actor. Also "I'm the one who knocks" is one of the coldest lines of all time. I just finished Your Honor and Bryan was absolutely phenomenal in it, season 1 was definitely better than season 2 but he was absolutely great throughout.

      You should also thank the Malcolm in the Middle producers for deciding to end the show after 7 seasons instead of picking it up for an 8th one or else Brian wouldn't have been avaliable and Walter White would have gone to somebody else

      The outtakes in the Strike episode are hilarious. When Jerry and the two faced girl show up and Tim reacts to her not so good face, Seinfeld kept laughing so they had to do several takes. Each time, Bryan changed his reaction but it would be even funnier, so Jerry would laugh more

    He’s brilliant. Not only did he raise me during my child hood on Malcom in the middle, then he gave us all breaking bad to follow along as we grew up and out of kid shows, and then he just kept being badass after breaking bad. Bryan Cranston is the epitome of success as an actor and artist. I would love to meet him one day.
