as we revisit some of the most memorable scenes
Plot
A chemistry teacher diagnosed with inoperable lung cancer turns to manufacturing and selling methamphetamine with a former student to secure his family’s future. Jesse Pinkman was originally supposed to be written out until episode 9. During the hiatus caused by the writers’ strike, creator Vince Gilligan, impressed with Aaron Paul’s portrayal of Jesse, as well as everyone who simply likes Paul, decided to revive the character and have Jesse’s fate given to another character in the first season finale. .. In the opening credits, the letters in the names of the cast and crew are highlighted in green to represent symbols for chemical elements. However, the "Ch" in Michael Slovis’ name was underlined in several early episodes, even though Ch is not a symbol for a chemical element. In subsequent episodes, only the "C" (for Carbon) is emphasized..
Ceases to exist without me
Walter White: Who are you talking to right now? Who do you think you’re seeing? Do you know how much I make a year? I mean, even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe me. Do you know what would happen if I suddenly decided to stop going to work? A business big enough to be listed on the NASDAQ goes up. Disappears.
I AM the danger
No, you clearly don’t know who you’re talking to, so let me set you straight. I’m not in danger, Skyler. A man opens his door and gets shot, and you think that about me? No! I’m the one knocking!. The opening credits use chemical symbols from the periodic table of elements as part of the names: bromine (Br) and barium (Ba) for the title, none for creator Vince Gilligan (except when he got a V for vanadium), one for cast and crew members. All episodes were reruns on cable on demand in some areas, commercial-free, but with additional scenes not included on AMC.
Edited in CollegeHumor Originals: Breaking Bad/Walking Dead Mash-Up (2013)
Dead fingers talk about working in a nuclear-free city. I have never seen a series that is as authentic and engaging as Breaking Bad. This is undoubtedly one of the greatest shows of all time, and it keeps getting better as it goes on. The journeys of Walter White and Jesse Pinkman are unforgettable. These are some of the best-written characters to ever come off the screen. My praise for the acting and cinematography is endless. Some of the shots are intricate works of art, and I was rarely distracted by the acting.
The performances are so excellent that it feels inappropriate to call them performances
Overall, Breaking Bad consistently maintains a level of engagement and technical quality seen only in the best films, and in terms of tone, every intense moment is filled with excellence and always achieves the impact it aims for. I feel like the show’s plot in the early seasons lacks a certain level of complexity due to not having a large number of plot threads and a bit of a slow start, but Breaking Bad is an absolute must-watch. If you had mixed feelings about Season 1, trust me, it’s only uphill from here. If there was ever a show you could call perfect, I think this might be it.
