SNLSaturday Night LiveNEW YORK (WENN) — Bryan Cranston reprised his "Breaking Bad" drug boss character on "Saturday Night Live" over the weekend as he poked fun at President-elect Donald Trump.
The actor revisited his TV alter ego, Walter White, for a surprise appearance on the comedy show on Saturday.
In the opening scenes of this week's episode, Cranston, as White, joked about being nominated to Trump's cabinet to head up the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) as he was quizzed about the job in a TV interview skit.
Admitting he had yet to meet Trump, Cranston revealed he was "a big fan" of the reality star-turned-politician and his plan to tackle illegal immigration from Mexico by building a wall along the U.S. border.
"I like his style," he quipped in character. "He acts first and then asks questions later. I also like that wall he wants to build. Nothing comes in from Mexico, meaning a lot less competition for the rest of us."
He then suggested a new slogan for Trump and his administration, making reference to the blue crystal meth White cooked up and trafficked on the cult show, which ended in 2013.
"Donald Trump and I agree, it's time to make America cook again," he remarked, playing on the president-elect's "Make America great again" phrase. "We want to fill this nation with red, white and a whole lot of blue."
This week's "Saturday Night Live" was hosted by wrestler-turned-actor John Cena, who showed off his comedy chops, while country music newcomer Maren Morris served as the show's musical guest.
