The Breaking Bad Connection?????
I only watched most of the series of this show recently after only catching the occasioanl episode and liking on Tv back in the 90's, but I noticed between seasons 4 & 5 main characters from Breaking Bad have played minor cameos.
Walt/Bryan Cranston is a Neil Diamond impersonator in "Paranoid Dick".
Jesse/Aaron Paul is a band member on stage at the school prom in "Dick's Big Giant Headache: Part 2".
Saul/Bob Odenkirk/the shifty lawyer plays a similar shifty role as a insurance salesman in the episode "The Fifth Solomon".
I was knocked back to see Walt and Jesse playing parts in different episodes from the same season, I mean like they're the two main characters from Breaking Bad, and then a few episodes into the 5th season Saul shows his face as a dodgy insurance man and I'm like WTF??????? Surprised to say the least, now I 'm wondering do these actors know they've all played small parts in 3rd Rock? Could Breaking Bad be in the same universe as 3rd Rock? Have all these actors ever been on the BB set and one said "I starred in 3rd rock once" and another one say's "hey that's far out I was in that show show too" and a third goes "no freaking way man I was too" and then all their minds are blown.
I'm quite a fan of both these shows and gives me quite a small sense of smuggness to discover I'm probably one of the only people in the world to notice that all these actors played a small roles. I'm a few episodes into season 5 just after the Saul incident but I will be even more blown away if I find any more BB cameos in there lol.
