Light news today, like most Fridays. I’ll definitely be expanding on my essay this weekend on where Gus, Walt, and Hank are heading this weekend; like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter if you want to know when it hits. Can’t wait for this week’s episode to get here, because it looks like…
If you missed it, I wrote a little essay yesterday about where I see Walt, Hank, and Gus going. I’ve got some feedback that I’ll try to work into a part two / refinement sometime over the weekend. Some good news about the deal between Sony and AMC for the fifth season of Breaking Bad,…
Actually, I couldn’t find any real news today. I mean sure, there are endless recaps and rehashing of the same old stuff, but nothing really genuinely new. If you want to have a look, be my guest. In lieu of rehashes, I did some thinking and wrote an essay that covers some realizations I’ve had about Gus,…
Hope you all have had (or will have, for the West coasters) a pleasant morning. We dropped episode six of our podcast, covering Breaking Bad episode 404, “Bullet Points”. If you liked the opening, you should really check out the interactive Gale Boetticher evidence file at the official site. The video of Gale singing is…
Before I pimp everyone else’s content, let me pimp our own: This is my instant take for last night’s episode, and this is Jim’s. About the only thing we agree on is that this episode of Breaking Bad was terrific. I think it rates a notch below 401/”Box Cutter” for “minds blown per hour”, but…
Jim and I’s podcast professionalism lasted through 74 episodes, but alas, they didn’t get us to 75. My partner mistakenly deleted episode 75 while editing it this morning. So, that kinda sucks, since it’s the middle of GENCON and we don’t exactly have time to record a new one. Our apologies for the fuck up.…
I’m a little tired of the hoo-ah behind the scenes Sony vs AMC stuff at this point. There is more and more of it clogging up my newsfeeds, but at this point there is very little new information. Until we actually confirm that Darabont left Walking Dead over budget cuts, or Gilligan says something publicly, or…
The news about the AMC / Sony dispute is still pouring out. Deadline Hollywood says not only is Sony pushing for 13 episodes, they might be pushing for 20 episodes or a sixth season. AMC presumably would like it to be 7-8. So, at this point, I don’t think anyone is representing the creative team.…
Not suprisingly, there is a lot more analysis of the AMC/Sony struggles today. Here is a breakdown by ScreenRant. I wonder when we’re going to hear something from Gilligan about this? I find myself in total agreement with this piece where Time Magazine wonders if less is more with Breaking Bad. “I feel that Breaking Bad…
Hope you saw that we posted the podcast late last night/early this morning (depending on timezone). If you liked it and haven’t had a chance yet, we’d really appreciate a positive iTunes review. If you didn’t, tell us why. We also have a poll up on Facebook asking your preference about podcasting formats. We…
