Pop Cultural Mashup Tees

The Latest Breaking Bad Memorabilia Meets Malcolm in the Middle

— September 29, 2013 — Pop Culture
The latest in Breaking Bad memorabilia comes in the form of an amusing tee shirt. Artist Anthony Hall, otherwise known as ‘Harebrained,' has created a tee shirt inspired by actor Bryan Cranston’s two most well-known roles: Breaking Bad’s infamous Walter White and Malcolm in the Middle’s father figure Hal.

The shirt features Cranston as Walter White surrounded by Hal’s children from Malcolm in the Middle (Francis, Reese, Dewey and the title character played by Frankie Muniz). Fans of both shows, especially Breaking Bad, will get a kick out of this funny pop cultural tee.

Even if you’re not an avid watcher of either show, it’s interesting to note Cranston’s professional evolution from family-friendly father figure to badass science teacher turned meth dealer. The tee shirt is available on Hall’s redbubble store for anyone who wants to show their appreciation for the show(s) and Cranstone’s acting talent.
