“Breaking Bad” and “Malcolm in the Middle”, two iconic series that left an indelible mark on television history. But could they be somehow connected?
There’s a theory on TikTok that suggests Malcolm, played by Frankie Muniz, is actually Heisenberg, the famous meth dealer from ‘Breaking Bad’.
The theory that Malcolm is Heisenberg from ‘Breaking Bad’
TikTok account @lucescamararo revealed this hypothesis by saying that “Breaking Bad” could be a sequel to “Malcolm in the Middle”.
According to this theory, Malcolm, and not his dad, eventually becomes Heisenberg.
The tests are:
-They are both geniuses and interested in chemistry.
-In personality they are very similar: both are intelligent, arrogant and with the ability to improvise plans and get their own way.
-This would explain Hal’s resemblance to Heisenberg, since Malcolm, as Hal’s son, would end up looking like either of them.
-Hal’s middle name is Walter and it may be tradition for the children in his family to be named Walter.
-The show never says Malcolm’s last name, so it could easily be White.

How have fans reacted to this theory that Malcolm is actually Heisenberg?
Although some applauded the creativity of the TikToker who made the video, other fans of both series refuted the theory with strong arguments and opinions, making it clear that they prefer to believe that “Breaking Bad” was a dream of Hal, Malcolm’s father. .

The theory suggests that Walter White, after the events of “Breaking Bad,” did not die as implied in the series finale. Instead, he would have chosen a quieter and more intimate life in California, under the name Hal Wilkerson in “Malcolm in the Middle.” Is it possible that Heisenberg escaped and changed his identity to live a completely different life?
This theory gained strength based on the fact that Bryan Cranston is the actor who plays both characters, although his personality is completely different.
Bryan Cranston’s words
Mine Bryan Cranston has dealt with this theory. In an interview, when asked about the relationship between the two series, he humorously replied: “I am not at liberty to discover any information without security evidence.” However, in the end, Cranston dismissed the idea, stating that Walter White is “definitely dead,” according to the ending of “Breaking Bad.”
The Alternate Ending of “Breaking Bad”
Remember that in the alternate ending of “Breaking Bad”, we see in a scene Hal from “Malcolm in the Middle” violently wakes up and shares his nightmare with Lois, in which he was a famous meth dealer and married to a beautiful blonde . woman. This skit starring Bryan Cranston became a hit with fans and contributed to the proliferation of theories about the series.
