Paul’s victory, announced earlier in the evening, was his first. Cranston, however, achieves a rare three-peat for his performance as Walter White. He beat out a mix of familiar faces and first-time nominees this year.

Also nominated were Kyle Chandler (“Friday Night Lights”), Matthew Fox (“Lost”), Jon Hamm (“Mad Men”), Hugh Laurie (“House”) and Michael C. Hall (“Dexter”).

  1. There is a “webisode” with Cranston breaking into a garage to retreive his vacuum cleaner. He is wearing a ski mask and is totally disguised throughout the whole scene … yet he totally steals the scene. He can act!

  2. Congratulations to Bryan Cranstob of “Breaking Bad”.

    It’s all over now…I still think it should have been Kyle Chandler. But., what an honor to have been nominated and with such great company. They were all great actors. Next year is reserved for Kyle Chandler. I am looking forward to Kyle’s new projects this coming year. I hope he is cast in a really great movie.
    Best Looking…Best Actor…Kyle Chandler!
