Breaking Good - 312 – Half Measures

A.Ron and Jim near the end of their re-watch of Breaking Bad season 3, with the thrilling episode “Half Measures”. An incredible episode that has you wondering what’s in store for next week’s installment, which is “Full Measure”. We discuss one of the all time great cold opens in BrBa history, “Wendy”, Marie’s motivational, uh, “techniques”, Mike’s shadowy past, and Walt’s Aztek at it’s most badass and heroic. As next episode will be our last Breaking Bad cast ever, we paused in our coverage to allow you guys to have your say about the series as a whole, or whatever is on your mind. Use the links below to get in touch with us, and we’ll see you back next week to say goodbye to Breaking Bad.

Breaking Good - 311 – Abiquiu

Jim and A.Ron are on to episode 311, “Abiquiu”, an episode of post-modern impressionist vaginas, gangster Food Network show pilots, and unexpected connections to Combos of long ago. Enjoy the flashbacks and fond memories while you can, and then buckle up, because the final two episodes of this season define the levels of crazy that Breaking Bad can get up to!

Breaking Good - 310 – The Fly

Jim and A.Ron look into a fairly polarizing episode of Breaking Bad, episode 310, “The Fly”. Some see it as a slow, ponderous, pointless exercise in budget cutting, while others see a beautiful, rich, thematic character study resting entirely on the performances of Aaron Paul and Bryan Cranston. Listen in to find out which side of the divide we fall on!

Breaking Good - 309 – Kafkaesque

Heading into the home stretch of Breaking Bad Season 3, we arrive at episode 309, “Kafkaesque”. Jesse’s job sucks, Hank can’t feel his legs, Walt admires Gus’s business move, and Skyler tells a whopper of a story.

Breaking Good - 308 – I See You

Jim and A.Ron continue their retro-rewatch of season 3 with episode 308, “I See You”. In this episode Hank fights for his life, Jesse messes around in the lab, and Gus makes his move.

Breaking Good - 307 – One Minute

Jim and A.Ron re-watch the classic Breaking Bad episode, “One Minute”. We have a lot to say about Walt and Jesse’s messed up relationship, turning points for Hank, and Gus’s schemes. All this, a robust spoiler section, and some feedback from our fellow fans.

Breaking Good - 306 – Sunset

We discuss the merits of the ABQ’s acting talent and the amazing stunt that Walt pulls to, once again, narrowly escape the clutches of his deserved fate.

Breaking Good - 305 – Mas

Jim and A.Ron ponder “Mas”, the fifth episode of season three of AMC’s Breaking Bad. In which Jesse resumes business, Gus is nakedly transparent, the Aztec takes yet another hit, while Walt at all times simply respects the chemistry.

Breaking Good - 304 – Green Light

Jim and A.Ron continue their summer BrBa rewatch with episode 304, “Green Light”. If you can’t get enough Breaking Bad deep dives, check out the Heisenberg Chronicles posts on 3×04: Factoids, locations, observations, fan art, gifs and more, courtesy Shane B.!

Orange is the New Cast - Season Three Wrap Up

Pi’ilani and Cecily are back with A.Ron to give season three an epic send off. We discuss our final thoughts on the Piper/Alex/Stella triangle, thoughts on Piper’s Panty Business moving forward, where Sophia goes from here, touch on Healy and Caputo, and try to anticipate some of the plots and resolutions for season four. All this plus some last minute feedback from our fellow fans. Thanks for a great season, everybody, and we’ll see you next year.
