It was a <\/span>Breaking Bad<\/em><\/a> reunion at the <\/span>2024 SAG Awards<\/a> on Saturday, and this time, they could use NSFW language.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Presenting the award for Best Ensemble in a Drama Series, <\/span>Bryan Cranston<\/a>,\u00a0<\/span>Aaron Paul<\/a>, Jonathan Banks, Betsy Brandt, Dean Norris, <\/span>Bob Odenkirk<\/a>, RJ Mitte and <\/span>Anna Gunn<\/a> appeared arm in arm on stage a full decade after their hit AMC show came to an end.<\/span><\/p>\n “10 years ago, we were proud to receive the SAG Award for Ensemble in a Drama Series,” said Cranston, 67, who starred as the formidable and downright daunting Walter White. “Tonight, we’re thrilled to bestow it on another group of actors.”<\/span><\/p>\n Things quickly went off the rails from there, with Gunn — who played Skyler White, the wife of Cranston’s character — starting a “cheesy” bit where the cast was to go through each letter from the word “ensemble” and break it out individually.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “Ensemble – the E stands for the excellence that each cast member brings to every exciting episode,” Gunn, 55, said before Odenkirk, 61, chimed in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “And the letter N… N stands for no, no f**king way I’m going to do this cheesy thing where you say each letter of the word. I’m not doing it,” the <\/span>Better Call Saul<\/span><\/em> star replied.<\/span><\/p>\n “I think we have to, it’s on the teleprompter,” replied Paul, 44, the actor behind the role of Jesse Pinkman in the series.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n “Teleprompter my a**, I got a beer and a couple shots backstage, so let’s get this thing going,” interrupted Norris, 60, who played Hank Schrader.<\/span><\/p>\n “Bob’s right,” shared Mitte, 31. “My grandmother wouldn’t even put this on a pillow, it’s so cheesy.”<\/span><\/p>\n “Listen, you guys – I don’t mean to start T for trouble, but what do you think SAG would do to us if we didn’t do this?” Brandt, 50, retorted before Banks, 77, chimed in.<\/span><\/p>\n “They can’t fire us, so f**k ’em,” Banks said before Cranston replied quickly, “That’s the true ensemble spirit.”<\/span><\/p>\n Ultimately, the group passed the torch to the cast of HBO’s <\/span>Succession, <\/span><\/em>which ended its four-season run in 2023 and snagged a staggering 75 Emmy nominations and 19 wins overall.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Breaking Bad<\/span><\/em>, which ran for five seasons, received similar praise throughout its 2008 to 2013 run, racking up 58 Emmy nominations and 16 total statues from the Television Academy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The\u00a0<\/span>2024 Screen Actors Guild\u00a0Awards<\/a>\u00a0took place on Saturday, Feb. 24, at 5 p.m. PT\/8 p.m. ET and\u00a0<\/span>streamed live on Netflix<\/a>\u00a0from the Shrine Auditorium & Expo Hall in Los Angeles.
