@yeah: Mark Margolis, the actor best known for his portrayal of the menacing Hector Salamanca in "Breaking Bad" and "Better Call Saul", died Thursday at Mt. Sinai Hospital in New York. He was 83 years old. The news was announced by his son, Morgan Margolis. As a former drug kingpin who continues to cast a shadow over Albuquerque's meth trade from his retirement home, Margolis left an indelible mark on Vince Gilligan's TV universe with his almost wordless performances. In 2012, he earned an Emmy nomination for his role in "Breaking Bad". He returned as Hector "Tío" Salamanca for five seasons in the Bob Odenkirk-directed prequel series "Better Call Saul", where he added a rich backstory to the character. #Margolis #MarkMargolis #BreakingBad #BetterCallSaul #HectorSalamanca #tio #morganmargolis #hectortiosalamanca
