Julia Louis-Dreyfus took home another Emmy for her role as Selina Meyer on “Veep,” and she served up another memorable Emmy moment in the process.
In a treat for “Seinfeld” fans and fans of cheeky television in general, Louis-Dreyfus was grabbed on her way up to the podium by Bryan Cranston. The Emmy-winning “Breaking Bad” actor didn’t just want to bestow a congratulatory hug on his former co-star, though, and a full blown makeout session ensued.

“Oh yeah, he was on ‘Seinfeld,’” Louis-Dreyfus quipped onstage after accepting her trophy, referencing an earlier moment during the show with Cranston when she pretended to forget he appeared on the show as Dr. Tim Whatley, a one-time love interest for her Elaine Benes.
