IT'S JUST LIKE RIDING A WIRE FENCE: Bryan Cranston will move on from playing an egotistical, lying schemer with complicated motives, whose hubris makes him responsible for unimaginable death and destruction (while reaping substantial financial rewards for his family through a series of convoluted plans in which his wife was often complicit), to playing Lyndon Johnson on Broadway.

    Any word on whether the play includes LBJ ordering pants? Because that would be one way of getting Cranston to appear in tighty-whities...

    The play begins within an off-stage LBJ barking orders at his staff from the toilet. Then Cranston emerges, clad in underpants, to a thunderous ovation from the crowd.

    Well, if there's anyone who could have benefited from Rural Electrification, it was Walt and Jesse in Episode 2.9, "Four Days Out."

  8. My name is Lyndon Baines Johnson. I live at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. To all law enforcement entities, this is not an admission of guilt.
