"Zou Bisou Bisou," the saucy ditty performed by Mad Men's equally saucy Megan Draper, played by Jessica Paré, didn't come with a dictionary. The only translation you needed was her strut, her snap, her stupefied yet leering husband Don Draper (Jon Hamm) and that big-sleeved-black-dress and patterned-hosiery combo suggesting a bat paired with Spider-Woman.
Yet all I could think about while watching her was David Costabile and his mesmerizing performance of "Crapa Pelada" at the end of the third season of Breaking Bad, while he nimbly watered his plants. You didn't need a dictionary for that one, either.
For viewers who missed Costabile's priceless one-man minute of cabaret, here's the back story. Walter White (Bryan Cranston) works for Gus Fring's (Giancarlo Esposito) operation. Fring makes Costabile's character -- the mild-mannered, super-smart and fastidiously quirky Gale Boetticher -- White's laboratory assistant, with an eye towards offing White and having Gale take over.
