Bryan Cranston on "Breaking Bad"
Video Overview & Insights
For this special episode of New Mexico in Focus, we revisit our exclusive interview with actor Bryan Cranston. He talks about saying goodbye to his role as Walter White on Breaking Bad, a television series filmed in and around Albuquerque, and highlights the importance of good writing to compelling storytelling. Cranston tells us what excites him about the acting profession, and also reveals his own enchantment with The Land of Enchantment.
In my opinion he should’ve stayed bald for the rest of his life atp.

Malcom in the middle totally sold this guy short of what he's capable. Unbelievable how flawless he was as a comedy actor playing a bad guy

@JjK-w1uI feel like I am watching Walter White right now, not Bryan Cranston. That's how good he is at acting in my opinion.
@SacredHaven52I do not see Bryan , see Walter.

@setapart1159Walt is really gaslighting this interviewing making him believe all he did was apart of some TV series
@BangingBaldyEach episode is a damn blockbuster movie to me
@jotter89His best character was Tim whatley
@johnmchugh8049The title is wrong. It should read "Walter White on Breaking Bad"

Bryan Cranston
6 seasons? Is there one missing out there?
@charlie5thumbs351Yes...a "case study" and education on compelling series based "story telling"...I watch it frequently.
@patrickdullea6991This TV show is one of the finest shows ever made in the TV industry
@amolswAnd for the other 99.9% of unlucky people, there's always homelessness and drugs 👌🤡👍
@MikJames-d1gWhen Bryan was talking about New Mexico I had flashbacks to his excuses to Skyler in Season 1. "I like to go for walks... the nature is so beautiful..."
@tc98826What an amazing man
@DreamfallingxBest TV show ever!!!
@LJM-d1x4rI can feel the love for his craft in the way he speaks about it. It was truly a great performance in a legendary show, it will surely stay ever green.
@pevgeleI love Bryan
@Prod_PrtzWalter White is such a beautifully rounded character, what’s so impressive is he’s very contained and controlled, he rarely loses the plot so it’s all about the subtle tells that Cranston shows with utter skill. Everyone in Breaking Bad is at the top of their game, it really is a masterclass in acting by all of them. Probably my favourite drama of all time, I’m about to finish it for the third time and I’m going to find it very hard to stop myself just starting it all over again.
@simond914The quality he is speaking about has been lost in todays stories.. or rather "content"
@karni6024:50 classic colonizer
@fetBCranston played Walter White to perfection. No one else could have done it better.
@lesliechin8861Thank you, mister White!
@AlvitanderExceptional interview 👏 master of his craft.
@samrosenthal5633Leftie .
@futurekillxbox972I finished watching yesterday, best show i have seen in my entire life. Finale scene scene had me crying like a baby. for good 10minutes.
@TheMailMan-g7iIn 2010 or somewhere around there, a habitually lying friend of mine was over and Breaking Bad happened to be on. My friend casually says “you know the lead guy, the guy from Malcom in the Middle? He’s the caveman in the Geico commercials”. I took it as fact, didn’t realize until later that it was bullshit. Dude now works in healthcare.. I’ll never forget such a random thing to lie about
@melissag1364I feel so retarted watching that on 2026
@J_loren.To me even when Walter crosses over to the other side, we the audience still see him as the underdog from the early episodes, under achiever, under appreciated, 2 jobs, disrespected at both, home environment was loveless, a wife who was distant n only pampering herself, son who looked up to his uncle Hank & then there is a new child coming & cancer is at the door...and no insurance cover....
