At first I thought you were making a terrible joke implying Walt is the Incrediblle Hulk
I didn't remember Bryan Cranston had appeared in The King of Queens

Mousewar · 12-03-2012 12:14pm

Well, apart from the obvious

I remember Gus was one of the cops from The Usual Suspects. He also appeared in The Box which I haven't seen but there is a great clip of him delivering a hellva line from the film on youtube.

Jane's Dad was Q from Star Trek.

Darksaga87 · 21-03-2012 3:49pm

Bryan Cranston as Hal from malcom in the middle and in heisinberg mode.
You wouldnt believe it was the same person!

evolving_doors · 21-03-2012 11:08pm

Cranston did a few Seinfeld appearences as Jerrys Dentist,

frag420 · 22-03-2012 9:18am

He could supliment his meth income with dentistry considering the state of the nashers on some users. Perhaps he could offer a loyalty scheme to users!! Just a thought!!

Mousewar · 22-03-2012 9:38am

Here's that Gus line from the movie 'The Box'

Cherry_Cola · 23-03-2012 8:45pm

Thought this was the best place for this, Bob Odenkirk aka Saul is doing an AMA on reddit now.

Smarmy · 25-03-2012 6:08pm

Saul was a marriage counsellor on Arrested Development and an ex porn star on Curb Your Enthusiasm, Skyler was an ex-girlfriend of Jerry Seinfeld while her husband Walt dated Elaine.

Had a bit of an argument with a friend as she was convinced that Hank played Vic Mackey on The Shield, I guess they do look somewhat alike at first glance

ScrubsfanChris · 28-03-2012 1:50am

Mike was also in Beverly Hills Cop
A (younger?) Hector Salamanca in Ace Ventura

Penn · 29-03-2012 9:16am

Hank was in The Negotiator, one of my favourite films. Only a fairly small role though.

Darksaga87 · 29-03-2012 4:46pm

Dean Norris played a general in 24 season 2.

My kids were watching a teenage movie last week and Jane was one of the supporting actors. Borat's wife was the main character, can't remember her name or the name of the movie.

edit: Confessions of a Shopaholic?

I was gonna post that.
It took me a while to notice it when I first started watching BB. Massive fan of Korn.

Another of my friends is a massive fan of Korn, and he just started watching BB last week, and I told him about it. At first he wouldn't believe me. But then.

Mousewar · 02-11-2012 11:32am

Mike was in Two and a half men as a pawn shop owner.

Funglegunk · 16-11-2012 1:33pm

Dean Norris was also in Starship Troopers:

And has a hilarious English accent in Lawnmower Man. Can't find a pic of it though. This guy (Larry Hankin):

used to live above Monica and Rachel in Friends.

Tuco (Raymond Cruz) is in ****loads of stuff, mostly playing soldiers. The Rock:

Alien: Resurrection:

Saul's ginger henchman guy (Bill Burr) is a stand-up comedian and is absolutely hilarious imho:

Gale (David Costabile) is the Baltimore Sun senior editor in The Wire Season 5:

And plays Mel's husband in Flight of the Conchords:

gnfnrhead · 19-11-2012 1:11am

Mike was in an episode of Life with some very dodgy facial hair. He was in a few episodes of Dexter too and I think Modern Family as well.

Da Shins Kelly · 19-11-2012 4:49am

Hank makes an appearance as a cop in the first season of Six Feet Under.

bassybass · 19-11-2012 5:04am

Dean Norris (Hank) was in an episode of Lost as far as I remember.

Mousewar · 19-11-2012 9:55am

Gale is in Spielberg's new Lincoln film.

evolving_doors · 26-11-2012 12:22pm

Anyone ever seen the X- files episode with brian cranston in it, it was directed (or written by maybe) by vince gilligan...

Interesting pre cursor to breaking bad as it challenges/changes the viewers perception of the bad guy/antagonist..

Vince Gilligan wrote a lot of episodes of the X-Files. He was a regular contributor to that show.

Very Breaking Bad type cold open to that episode. Something crazy and shocking happens just before the credits then you have to know what happens next.
