This is the face of shame.

During Saturday's Screen Actors Guild Awards, E! News reminded Bryan Cranston of a simpler time, when he was just a rabble rouser on the beaches of Baywatch.

Cranston was so embarrassed by his cameo from 1989 he was brought to laugh-tears.

Here's the Baywatch clip that E! unearthed:

"Wow," Cranston said. "I don't understand how that could have been overlooked for the Emmys or the SAG awards. It brings a tear to my eye every time. My goodness."

Apparently, shooting the scene wasn't Cranston's greatest experience either.

"The scene on the boat, no, I believe my secret for that character was that he had diarrhea," he said. "I was on real water and I was seasick."
