Nobody will ever see Bryan Cranston as anything other than a goofy TV dad.

QHC@lemmy.world 1 year agoMost sitcom actors run into that. I’m sure Jim Parsons won’t ever be seen as anyone else, or for an older example all of the cast of Seinfeld (arguably besides Julia).

People have compiled screenshots of the negative reactions when he was announced for Breaking Bad, lol.

I don’t even know who Jim Parsons is, so perhaps he’ll be a little less affected by that, but Seinfeld is a poor example because the character (and show) is literally named after the actor. Though I’ll concede your point stands for George and Kramer.

@QHC @startrek Ted Danson has done some fabulous work outside of Cheers, but I’m sure that show will be considered his legacy.

I think of him as Michael from The Good Place, but it’s probably because I watched it more recently than Cheers.

I see Becker when I think of Danson
