Two years after the comedy ended, Cranston headed up the critically acclaimed Breaking Bad. The drama ended its five season run earlier this year. Below is an image of Cranston during his time on MITM and one taken when he was starring on Breaking Bad.

The Best of 2013 - Drama

And the winner is... The Good Wife

Airs: Sundays on CBS at 9 PM (If football is finished on time)

Stars: Julianna Margulies, Matt Czuchry, Josh Charles, Archie Panjabi, Christine Baranski, and Chris Noth

Premiered: September 22, 2009

Episode Count: 102

Why it was the best: Usually when a show hits its fifth season, it will start to become boring. The Good Wife did the exact opposite by having Alicia leave Lockhart/Gardner to start a new firm with cohort Cary. Now Will and Alicia are on opposite sides of the courtroom and the storylines keep getting juicier. Kalinda has been pretty absent so far this season, but expect more screen time for her in 2014. 

Best Episode: "Hitting the Fan"

Best Scene:

Top Quotes of the Week

Here are my five favorite quotes of the week as featured on TV Line:

"I miss being in a band where people are decent to each other and there's no drama. I'm going back to the new Guns N' Roses!"

Darren (Andrew Rannells) after quitting The Mother's band when Ted punches him in the face on How I Met Your Mother

"Kissing a married man has never been in my life plan. It's not on my vision board or in my dreamscape. I am not that kind of person."

Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) saying goodbye to Emma (Jennifer Morrison) on Once Upon a Time

Castle Sneak Peeks!

Here are 3 spoilers for the new episode of Castle that will be airing tonight at 10 PM on ABC.

Revenge Spoiler!

Since Revenge was not on tonight, I thought it would be nice to share some upcoming character spoilers for the show. Three new people will be visiting the Hamptons in the episodes to come. Patrick's father, Jimmy, should be making an appearance around episode 13. The visit will be unnerving to Victoria, which will work perfectly in Emily's scheme. Victoria will also be upset by the new character Stevie, who was Conrad's first wife. Expect her to be up to no good on her "vacation." Daniel and Sara have grown very close recently. The one person who is most upset about this is Loretta, Sara's mother. She hasn't gotten over the fact that Daniel almost killed her daughter. Looks like the intensity we have been watching this season on Revenge won't be letting up any time soon.
