Since the series finale of Breaking Bad airs Sunday night, Aaron Paul made a surprise appearance on the season premiere of Season 39 of Saturday Night Live, which Tina Fey hosted.
Paul appeared as his Breaking Bad character Jesse Pinkman. He got political, appearing alongside President Obama, played by Jay Pharaoh, while he was supporting the Affordable Care Act.
When Pharaoh declares everyday Americans will speak on how the Affordable Care Act changes their lives for the better, Paul as Pinkman comes up and talks about Obamacare.
"I had this friend and he got sick. Like, cancer cancer sick. But because there wasn’t Obamcare, he couldn’t afford treatments. So he was like, backed into a corner. So, he did what any of us would have done. He started cooking meth. And soon it wasn't just meth. It was murder. And not regular murder. Like—he blew half a guy’s face off,” he said, Us Weekly reports.
Paul also appeared on Weekend Edition as well as in a pre-taped promo. He took to Instagram to post a video of musical guest Arcade Fire and also tweeted:
