First off, it’s my birthday, today. I’ve made it 35 years on this planet. Hopefully I can pull off another 40 or 50. As a birthday present, the Internet got me some decent Breaking Bad news! That’s thoughtful of the internet, really. Wednesdays can be dry sometimes. First off we have Hank’s blog, and not…
A bit of housekeeping first. If you missed it, we released the podcast for 407, “Problem Dog” last night. I hope you guys like it! If you haven’t got a chance to read our listener Nick from Ottawa’s research on Gale’ case file, you should take a look. We talked about how the Madrigal Electromotive site is…
In case you missed it last night, you can find my instant review here, and Jim’s over here. Tonight we’ll start casting at about 7pm EST, so that’s the cutoff if you want to get your take read on-air. Probably the craziest thing I’ve seen since last night is an actual website for Madrigal Electromotive.…
First up, if you want a sort of pre-cast primer, you can check out my instant review here, and Jim’s over here. Tonight’s podcast should be a good one, I have lots to talk about, and we have a ton of awesome feedback and theories courtesy you guys. We’ll start recording around 7pm, and have…
A week ago, TeeFury had a sweet Breaking Bad t-shirt, but alas, you can only buy them the one day, and then they are gone forever. By the time I’d heard of it, it was already gone. Or was it? A redditor did some research and found the original artist, still selling them (albeit at…
Good morning! Er, I mean afternoon. Sorry about the tardiness of my post. My boss has this crazy idea where I have to do things for him, and it pushed my lunch hour waaay late today. I’d blow him off, but then he’d slit my network engineers throat with a mechanical pencil, just to send…
Well, it’s going to be a short update today. The only real news of note that I have is the latest “Powerless Ranking” from Grantland. Money quote: “Walt is so ready to die that he makes Jesse look not ready to die.” Heh. This has me thinking, Walt is so far just getting jerked around…
Last night we got the podcast for Episode 405, “Shotgun”, up at about 11pm EST. So if you missed it, check it out! It was a bit different, usually Jim runs the cast and I just mouth off here and there, but due to a technical problem, Jim lost his show notes, so we had to use…
First things first, we can put behind us the bickering between Sony and AMC, because Breaking Bad has been renewed for a fifth and most importantly final season. The big news is that it consists of sixteen episodes, which is basically a season and a third, on average. The cynic in me wonders what in…
Looking for Jim’s take? This was a great episode. Jim’s raving about it, which is okay, although I’m not like that about it. I think what I admired most was the pacing. Lots of good acting work and letting the audience draw conclusions, with a nice action payoff. The opening shot was reminicent of the…
