That civil war general look really suits him

[@melissa-wilson]

🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣

[@lynnebucher6537]

With that beard, he can wander around in public incognito.

[@kittybear9693]

Hoooooottttttt

[@nasMFkhan]

Every look suits him ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

[@jy6309]

OMG, just before I saw your comment, I was saying that he looked like a Civil War Soldier😂

[@berbank]

He looks good with a beard, He looks good without one. He looks good all the time, He's Bryan Cranston.

[@hollydaugherty2620]

Beautiful.

[@jasonrowe3847]

Does he look good on a slide? Does he look good at low tide? Does he look good on a boat? Does he look like an old goat? Am I annoying when I say, I'd love to do this all damn day...

[@alakani]

But would his beard look good with bread? Or would you think he had poo head?

[@key_sii_]

He looks good and cooks.

[@adrijchakraborty4471]

Does Bryan not softly resemble Karl Marx?

[@tdslywka]

Byran has this voice we all love, on top of that he just seems like he's a very great person.

[@JackAShepherd]

He's a rabid antidentite!

[@juxe411]

Bryan Cranston is such a legend he literally has the ability to SMELL carbon monoxide, he’s levels above us all

[@nonoffensiveperson9877]

When you smell passing out, it's like that

[@mamapetillo8675]

I still can’t get it out of my head, that he was Malcom in the Middle’s dad. It made watching B.B. kinda disconcerting, for a time. It also made it more believable. A double life no one would expect! Perfect 👍

[@jazzman7320]

The challenge he had to convince us that he could be a dangerous, feared, respected drug dealer was absolutely monumental. And now it’s all we can see him as: a total fucking badass. What a legend.

[@scottrowe533]

The Malcolm in the Middle episode with Dad doing a dramatic dance routine on roller skates is sitcom television at its finest. Must-see TV! 👏💯🤣

[@mamapetillo8675]

@@scottrowe533 I don’t remember that one. I’ll have to look for it

[@gus.smedstad]

I’m glad that they started by addressing the beard in the room.

[@marshwetland3808]

He looks like halfway between a stereotypical psychiatrist and Jordan Peterson. It kinda creeps me out!

[@durgnthereal2027]

I love him soo much, what a great man just filled with charisma and talent.

[@SyedSaifAbbasNaqvi]

I mean he has loads of talent no one can disagree. But he absolutely commands himself with Witt and Charisma wherever he is.

[@oli.y]

If he didn't announce his name, I could not have guessed who this man was even after watching Breaking Bad so many times

[@adamcaretta4715]

If you can’t recognize his voice, you didn’t watch breaking bad

[@SuperBrosHQ]

Bryan Cranston as Walter White is the best TV/Film acting perfomance of all time alongside James Gandolfini's portrayal of Tony Soprano

[@RB0345]

id put Cillian Murphy's Thomas Shelby up there too

[@JackAShepherd]

Wrong! Aaron Paul as Jesse is the GOAT

[@theanarchy4003]

Jensen Ackles as Dean Winchester Jon Bernthal as Frank Castle

[@smashbrandiscootch719]

LMFAO seriously?

[@senguptasayn]

John Hamm in Mad Men is somewhere there too.

[@SheyD78]

Magnificent, I can't stop laughing. The touch of mescal behind the ears was the icing on the cake!

[@breakshot7451]

i still remember his chicken slaughter story from his youth on craig ferguson, hilarious, love him

[@gustavosuarez3096]

Bryan rocking the "most interesting man in the world" look 😊

[@calpal9983]

These two together just makes me happy.

[@heynowls3058]

Gotta love Cranston. Always funny, always humble… Can’t wait for season 2 of “Your Honor”.

[@richp6716]

For the Brits that know of the extraordinary life of Brian Blessed, I think I've found the guy to play him in a biopic

[@Taijifufu]

It would have to be dubbed by Patrick Stewart to have the right baritone Yorkshire accent though.

[@MFDOOMSDAa]

Hal is still one the most relatable tv dad to ever grace the tv screens.

[@ec-3po]

I loved that mini series, your honor. Always wished there were more episodes. Everything he’s in is brilliant

[@JachAnen]

Not really a mini series, it was supposed to go on and apparently it will as Showtime reversed their decision and renewed it, planned to air later this year

[@BartvG88]

You don’t have to call me “your honor.” I’ just a random youtube commenter!

[@charlesmaclellan8124]

Had no idea he was involved with The Office. Hilarious behind the scenes story about an episode I've seen 100 times.

[@dshock85]

Brian retelling this story with the madmans beard and hair is perfect

[@lauriecook8719]

I usually don’t like beards, but Bryan Cranston actually looks more handsome in a beard

[@netro4680]

he looks more handsome without a beard too

[@theLoveRocketjr]

@@netro4680 Both looks are equally good.

[@caroldayanarodriguezvelasco]

Very handsome ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

[@ksexton6784]

i like how Bryan cranston briefly interviews colbert about the next episode!

[@jimmyispromo]

He looks beautiful and powerful with that hair and beard.

[@kittybear9693]

All the testosterone vibes

[@melanies.6030]

Zeus!!

[@silentobserver9418]

Weird seeing him with hair. I prefer him bald

[@FluxyMiniscus]

Honestly wouldn’t have recognized him ! Beards really do transform , such a difference

[@Godsecution]

Damn he looks like a Greek god

[@loneranterism]

Perhaps most versatile actor...sometimes I struggle to recognise him

[@p.b.2286]

He's still Hal " Malcolm's" father to me

[@catalinacurio]

Bryan put simply I am in awe!

[@t.brooks7602]

You don't wanna fight this! 'Cause this comes with a fight! 🤣🤣 their banter is comedy gold

[@kevinbealer6320]

Wait... When did we stop knowing Bryan from Malcolm in the Middle? I feel old now.

[@uzialadogan5240]

Bryan Cranston: “Your audience is always so cocained up.” Bryan forgot to mention that his own audience is so methed up.

[@johnenslin1293]

I was getting some serious Charlton Heston as Moses vibes.

[@josefloresjr1968]

So much confidence, it’s insane. Gotta love it.

[@samanthawagner182]

Steven, it makes me sad that you have never seen yourself as Broccoli Rabe. I think you should make a video of yourself watching the scene for the first time for us to enjoy. 👍

[@maeonmars9357]

Love this idea!

[@cygam00]

I love that Bryan Cranston started to take the glass closest to him, realized that it had a bit larger pour, and then gave it to Colbert. The beard fits the gentleman.

[@alter-ego-]

"i haven't seen it either" i lost my breath 🤣

[@elizabethlarson9655]

"This comes with a fight," he says gesturing to his beard. Truer words were never spoken when it comes to facial hair.

[@bryancranston759]

Thanks for your love and kind gesture towards me, I'm feeling cheerful and decided to discuss with my fan on Google chat

[@sylviamcauley8454]

Love Bryan Cranston. Brilliant actor and very funny man

[@shawncarroll5255]

Bryan should do a biopic on William Tecumpsah Sherman, since Grant has been done on the History channel. With the beard and the acting chops, it could be magnificent.

[@cordeliadrew1782]

Sherman is my grandmother’s grandmother’s father :)

I will never be able to look at Bryan Cranston ever again without seeing Mr, White!! Lol. Lol. I absolutely love Bryan Cranston!!🤣🤣🤙🤙👍👍

I always forget he is funny on purpose, not like in Breaking Bad where I don't think Walt ever made a joke but many things he did made you laugh.

You totally have to watch it. Be sure to start from the beginning so you can appreciate the metamorphosis of Cranston's Walter White character.

Oh that is hilarious. It was that simple? That's a great clip. That clip was enough to share that moment of inspiration. I know just enough to kinda understand how that guy noticed the defect in the randomization of the lottery. It's a game, designed by professionals that don't regularly try to break games or examine them from "other" perspectives.

[@stitchcrafter]

He's looking like Charlton Heston in the 10 Commandments.

[@Tonyhouse1168]

I’d vote for him

[@imandelany4]

[@lordofthereels6790]

Would Cranston work for a character in the Ghostbusters sequel? Maybe as a brother of one of the original members who was jealous of his bro's Ghostbusters success and winds up accidentally freeing/creating the villain?

This man is a national treasure 🤣

[@fosterch11]

Fellow Tequila drinkers will agree, the higher the quality, the easier it is to drink. The most expensive stuff is like drinking fine water. Smooth as silk. The rot gut stuff I drank in college, is like drinking paint thinner, or worse.
