Outstanding Lead Actor in a Drama Series: Bryan Cranston who plays Walter; A pathetic failed chemist turned high school teacher that upon being diagnosed with terminal lung cancer decides to cook meth with one of his former students to get some extra skrilla for his family before he kicks it. Bryan Cranston is amazing and gets extra points seeing as he played the dad in Malcolm in the Middle, a show I absolutely detested.
Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series: Aaron Paul who plays Jesse: the meth cook/head sidekick to Walter. He does wannabe vato white boy pretty well and they even throw in some good colloquialisms for him to
embarrass himself with (I heard him utter "a la vergas." once or twice).and
Outstanding Drama Series!!!
The show is so great at using Albuquerque's sprawl and surrounding parched earth to convey the mood of extreme desperation. One of the meth head motels they use for a scene I delivered pizzas to and I tell ya, it was one of the most demented and scary places I have ever been. Later they blow up the top floor of one of my favorite coffee shops(Downtown Java Joe's has a stupid name, bodacious breakfast burritos, and apparently a crystal meth dealership above it). Man, I hope to see some South Valley action in future episodes. Anyway, the pilot in it's self has been better than 95% of the movies I've seen this year so check it!
