RJ Mitte plays Walt Jr., the son of former chemistry teacher now crystal meth wizard Walter White in AMC's "Breaking Bad". The critically acclaimed show will have the first of it's season 3 ending two-part finale air tonight at 10pm. Despite the role of Walt Jr. being his first major role as a series regular, the articulate and mature RJ (he's only 17!) is incredibly aware of the effort that goes into his show and the privilege of working with and for multi-Emmy winning cast, writers, and crew. more ›

Dean Norris is currently thrilling us as ultra-macho DEA agent Hank Schrader on AMC's "Breaking Bad" but we've been watching this great actor for over 25 years. From "N.Y.P.D. Blue" to the "X-Files" to "The Unit" and beyond, Dean Norris has just kept popping up so we've been very pleased to get so much of him so regularly in "Breaking Bad". Norris' character, Hank, has gone through some drastic changes, as most of the characters have, he's gone from a comic element, the jovial macho guy, to a panic attack-stricken paranoid. Hank is so real and exciting, it's been a great, if not nail-biting journey. Tonight's episode of "Breaking Bad" will very much feature Hank so be sure to tune in at 10pm. more ›

Anna Gunn currently stars as Skyler White on AMC's Emmy and Peabody award-winning series "Breaking Bad" (Sundays at 10pm) but it was her portrayal of Martha Bullock on HBO's "Deadwood" a few years ago that cemented her as a leading lady in cutting edge television. We had the chance to speak with Anna Gunn over the phone as she was in New York City to film a guest spot on "Law & Order". We were so pleased to get the following tremendous insights into her character and the show: more ›

Late Night Notes: Crispin Glover will be on "Chelsea Lately" (11pm on E!) and we can't wait! He has a hilarious part in Hot Tub Time Machine and we're still bummed that we didn't get the chance to talk to him at the E! Oscars party a few weeks ago. more ›

One thing most people don't see is what happens in the Press Room at the Emmys. After the winners leave the stage, they have the choice to do interviews with the likes of ET's Mary Hart and other outlets. They also have the choice to go into the press room to answer questions from the 300-or-so members of the press assembled there. more ›

Last night the TV Junkie had an incredible time talking to some of the best performers of stage and screen at the very friendly and low key reception for Primetime Emmy Nominated Performers at Wolfgang Puck at the Pacific Design Center. We talked to "Breaking Bad" lead (and last year's Emmy winner!) Bryan Cranston about how he prepares for his challenging role. Aaron Paul who plays the humorously tragic "Jesse" on the show shared that he brings some of his own trials to his role as well as research on how drug intervention programs work/don't work. more ›

"American Idol" fans can now shell out $1.99 for an iPhone app that will provide them with a weekly update them on the vital statistics of the remaining contenders for the rest of this season. What isn't clear from the press release is if there will be geosynchronous Ryan Seacrest hair gel monitoring. more ›

You know it's a slow week at the DVD counter when a low-brow flick like Sex Drive is the highest profile release. Didn't see it, but read on Ain't It Cool that it was pretty funny. And apparently there are tons of naked chicks in it (link NSFW). Might be worth a rental. Breaking Bad, on the other hand, is definitely worth a rental. His years of doing straight comedy (click it!) have obscured the fact that Bryan Cranston is a damn fine actor. Think Noah Wyle is regretting leaving ER a little bit? I mean, another The Librarian movie? Seriously? more ›
