"Breaking Bad" star Betsy Brandt is trading one dysfunctional TV family for another, at least for one episode. TV Guide reports that the actress will guest star on "Parenthood" as the ex-wife of Ray Romano's Hank Rizzoli.

Romano's character already has a lot to deal with, including a teenage daughter and a crush on his engaged assistant, Sarah (Lauren Graham), whom he kissed in last week's episode. Will Brandt's character will set Hank straight?
