Malcolm in the Middle alum Frankie Muniz marvels that even as Breaking Bad's Bryan Cranston has grown into "essentially like a Hollywood god at this point," his former TV dad still makes time to check in on him every few weeks and attend his shows and races.

Wherever life takes him, Frankie Muniz will always have a TV dad in Bryan Cranston. The two-time Golden Globe nominee recently shared that Cranston, who played his on-screen father Hal in Malcolm in the Middle, still checks in with him “every couple of weeks.” The beloved Fox sitcom aired for seven seasons from 2000 to 2006.

Bryan Cranston is now arguably best known for his beloved role as Walter White as part of the Breaking Bad cast. However, the actor got his real big break by playing the goofy, fun-loving father Hal on Malcolm in the Middle.
