bryan cranston is here with us. there's only 15 episodes of "breaking bad" left which i just was telling my girlfriend last night, she's like, there's only 15 left. must we be so negative? >> i know. but there's still plenty more people to kill. >> jimmy: there are a lot of people to kill. and i want to ask you about this, because this is something that -- there are funny moments in the show, even though is show is very intense. the writing and directing is just fantastic. but there's a scene where you're angry at your wife and you throw a pizza on the roof. >> you know, well, i try to make peace with her, by offering pizza, which is a very male thing to do. >> jimmy: yes. >> what would a woman like? pizza. pepperoni pizza. a huge pizza and dipping sticks. how could she turn me down? so i'm at the door and i say, honey, can we come in and have a family meal? she says, no, get out of here. i'm so frustrated. the idea that walt goes back to his car he's so upset about this, that he hurls the pizza and gets in his car

he is so memorable because the acting from bryan cranston is so strong and it's been a revelation to people because before the show bryan cranston was the dentist on "seinfeld" and the father on "malcolm in the middle." not roles you would think would recommend somebody to play this role we're describing. what is it you saw in bryan cranston that made you say, yeah, he could be the meth kingpin of the southwest? >> well, admittedly if i'd only known him from the dopey dad on "malcolm in the middle" i would have had a hard time picturing myself. i was fortunate to have worked with him about a year and a half before he did "malcolm in the middle." he was in an episode of the "x-files" i wrote and he played a very dark character who was kind of an anti-semite and just a general creep, all-around bad guy who was trapped in a car with agent mulder played by david duchovny for like the whole hour. and yet at the end of the hour you had to feel bad when, here comes the spoiler alert, the guy dies at the end of that particular episode. sorry to ruin that for you. and this actor who i did not
