The obvious pick for a great TV show starring Bryan Cranston would be Breaking Bad, but based on his hilarious role in HIMYM as Ted's terrible boss Hammond, a much better show to seek out would be Malcolm in the Middle, the family sitcom which made him famous.

In the series, Cranston stars as Hal, the immature and eccentric family patriarch who constantly gets himself into trouble but always ultimately means well. Cranston's joined by Jane Kaczmarek, Frankie Muniz and Christopher Masterson, as the family attempt to navigate the obstacles of their school, work and home lives.

Malcolm in the Middle has aged like fine wine, and serves as an early example of a sitcom not to feature a laugh track or be filmed in front of a live studio audience. All the actors are perfectly cast, and if you're interested in seeing Cranston in something other than Breaking Bad, then it's a show you should really seek out.
