Breaking Bad (Walt Jr.)(2008)

In the landmark AMC drama, RJ Mitte, who has cerebral palsy, plays Walter White's son Flynn, who also has CP. Gilligan deliberately cast a disabled actor, and for many viewers Flynn was the first disabled person they saw as an ongoing character in prestige television. Mitte has since become a prominent advocate for disabled performers.
